Subject: After Halo 3...

The world is full of mysteries, and shares too few of the answers required. An example of which, is how did I end up in the Brute Zone?

Do you think the Covenant would ever attack the Humans again?

Let us imagine that the Covenant have survived, toughed it out, regrouped, and more importantly regained their fleet.

If you were in the position of the Covenant would you launch another attack on the Humans?

Why and/or why not?

Rawr Im a dino!

It is kinda hard to see them regrouping and attacking us again. Their whole religion was proved false, the elites who were their back bones in military left, the Brutes are in a huge civil war fighting eachother for leadership. If anything I am expecting some type of long term alliance with the Elites, Grunts, Jackals and the Mgaelekglo(Spelling is totally off).

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Your situation wouldn't occur, even as a "What if...?" scenario.

the covenant did not survive.
all that was left were the brutes who were struggling for control with themselves if the did get an organization back together the would be destroyed upon attacking us, due to our alliance with the elites.

i highly doubt they would manage to get either grunts kigyar drone or lekgolo back on their side.

Unlikely. The Covenant still have their homeworlds and controlled space but since the Prophets are gone the Brutes have no one to commend and they all fought eachother. It's very doubtful.

Don't worry, I also do not believe that this 'what if' scenario would occur, but I was curious if anybody did think this may happen. I personally see the Humans forming an alliance with the Elites, and perhaps other races who were affiliated with the Covenant.

I am also curious as to whether 343i attempt to bring any of the aforementioned species into the upcoming Halo games. (Doubtful)

I bet they would with all the fans wanting it, but it wouldn't make much sense.

Seeing that the master Chief has ended up in an unknown territory.

Wait! Maybe this is around the homeworld of one of the species?! They might pull off some weak stuff like that...

"Halo, it's divine wind will rush through the stars, propelling all who are worthy along the path of salvation!"

What's the point, the covenant is done. Their religion was false.

That's the thing. I'm expect 343 to pull off some pretty unexpected, strong stuff in Halo 4 that will set the stage for the trilogy.
Not some partial, weak stuff like only the Grunts appearing for two levels, or us fighting Sentinels the whole game.

Halo 4 is not AT ALL going to be what any of us expect at this point in time, anyway, since we know nothing about where Halo 4 is going and doing, so we have only the present information to go off of.
I have a strong vibe that 343 will either completely recreate the Precursors to fit the role of being the main enemy, or will introduce a new enemy. I'm expecting the latter, and will wait to see whether it was deus ex machina or not. But I have strong faith in them; that they know what makes a good story; not just interesting plot points, but how to build up to them and make them work.

343 better not put the flood back in halo 4. They were annoying as crap. Still, I think 343 would have to do something pretty spectacular in halo 4. The covenant is done for, so they can either do one of 3 things.
1 The whole game would be fighting the flood (which would suck)
2 Introduce a new enemy in the halo trilogy
or 3 Have master chief fight a small covenant "rebellion"
Whatever they do, I'm looking forward to halo 4!
