At the same time for a race to reach that level within 60,000 years is borderline impossible.
You're thinking in human terms. Larry Niven's Known Space series has a race that went from just discovering how to manipulate radio waves, to discovering Faster Then Light travel and interstellar colonization in less then two centuries. They could do that because they operated in pods, like small Hive Mind groups that had collective intelligent minds far surpassing even most human computers. To them, 60,000 years would probably allow them to reach mythical Tier V status and beyond on the Kardeshev scale.
Who's to say a race in Halo does not have similar capabilities?
well played.
Which is why i am saying it is sad we don't see more of that in halo. I feel like this is just another race nothing that should be given too much importance until we have a reason to give it.
I could only imagine what tech level they would be on 40,000 years later..
Unless they were wiped by the flood, or civil war, or whatever, and these were refugees...
Infinite possibilites.
I think we'll be hearing more about these things in halo 4. They obviously have a meaning. 343 never puts things in just because.
