Subject: Question about the Forerunner

I still have yet to finish Cryptum but I did finish Glasslands and this question comes to mind, why didn't the Forerunner go inside their shield worlds before they fired the rings? They didn't have to flee the galaxy...

They lived, we have known since IRIS that the forerunners just relocated to another area

Thus why I said flee the galaxy. Why leave when you can stay?

avid forger, love vehicle gameplay

No one knows yet. It's most likely MB's betrayal, preventing any forerunners from reaching any shield worlds, or perhaps the flood got to some first, as shown in Wars.

They didn't leave, they couldn't under the circumstances they were in

Then why were various shield worlds uninhabited? Was it MB that prevented them from reaching safety?

Various? because we know that one shield world got infested and that another wasn't finished. So how can you make any decision based on 2 out of hundreds?

Because I can. =]

OT: Because judging that 100,000 years past and they haven't come out yet supports my claim.

That is the most illogical thing i have ever heard you say, i am disappointed.

From what it seems in IRIS they haven't come out because it is up to us to handle galactic affairs. ontop of that it seems like the have there own problems which is understandable since their entire existence has been flawed.

There is no way that they would be able to rebuild their empire in a mere 100,000 years. Along with the fact they could be fighting something.

A lot (most?) of them died. Some of them made it out to the ark or elsewhere.

I think MB, the Precursor, and Gravemind acted to prevent them from making it the shield worlds. MB would have told the Flood of the shield worlds' locations.

The shield worlds were largely built After MB switched sides, not to mention that there are hundreds of them and the original shield worlds were made to fight the flood.

It got locked?

HUZAAH!

Seriously, that thread was a breeding ground for flame wars. Why would you want it to stay open?

Which one wasnt finished ?
Also we all know they used the sheild world and the ark to survive....they travelled away....reson unknown.

Onyx wasn't finished.

I see no reason for why the Ark wasn't used. but it was been said and implied several times now that they are watching us in this galaxy.

Finished in building right ?
Also...Its quite strange that all they did is watch while the galaxy was at risk of falling into flood again....if they would actually enter the fight with flood-human-covy war there would have been much less casualties.

yes.

Seeing how we beat the flood before and they couldn't it isn't strange at all. And your never going to grow up if mommy saves you everytime you fall down.


There has not been a reason for them to appear yet

Yea true...but if we failed...it would mean the death of galaxy...and after that sooner or later...the forerunners would stumble upon flood....even if they travel super fast the flood would keep destroying galaxies one after other endlessly.
Also we didnt actually win the flood...the forerunners did...the medicant bias did.If it wasnt for medicant bias the cheif wouldnt get to ark hence not wining.
Also if it wasnt for the halo (made by forerunners so it counts to forerunners)we wouldnt defeat the flood.
So i still dont see a reason why forerunners would watch at us fighting what they lost.
