The Halo REACH Script (post thoughts in thread)

Writing Lead of Whisper Studios. Check out Heron!

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Okay, well they didn't do that. A different model for every map would still make them go out of their way.
Just deal with the fact that Halo 3 takes place directly after Halo 2 (we should start with the Forerunner ship), and it wouldn't take more than a week-3 weeks. Nowhere near a year. Remember the covies were already landing on Earth (or getting close to it) when Chief arrives at the end.

Than I have found a flaw in Bungie's plot.

BTW, Halo wouldn't be a good game if Bungie didn't go out of their way.

Everyone talking about the armor damage issue, you are all MORONS.

PLAY HALO 2 ONLINE. LOOK AT THE ARMOR CLOSELY... SEE ALL THE SCRATCHES!? THATS NOT ARMOR DESIGN, THATS SCRATCHES. Way back... the first multiplayer shots of Halo 2, they had ideas about the armor damage maybe appearing as u got more damaged... why would Bungie add a new dent every level when its a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER and you can't really see much of yourself anyway? That would be a waste of time. Sure the X-Box could handle it, but it just wasn't allowable in the time constraint Microsoft put on Bungie for Halo 2's release date... Honestly people, get real. It's the Chief. It's John. It really is. Bungie even said it was. It's a definite possibility that there will be more Spartan-II's in Halo 3. Because if you read First Strike, there are survivors of Reach, it wasn't really "glassed" like they thought. In the Halo universe, the Assault Rifle didn't disappear from Halo:CE to Halo 2. It just wasn't used. Same with the pistol, this doesn't mean they don't exist anymore. In Halo 3... the Assault Rifle can make a return. The fact that his armor is damaged is just continuing the story... He fought the Covenant onboard the MAC (Magnetic Accelerator Cannon for those who don't know) Platform; Cairo Station. He fought the Covenant on Earth. He fought the Covenant and the Flood on Delta Halo. And he rode through space on a very large Covenant battleship. There is no doubt, that once your shields run down, that armor won't get damage. Get real people, he isn't invincible, that's why you can die in the game. (Thanks for respawns!) And heres another thing... the other S-II's could've gotten the Mark VI armor when he was on Delta Halo, but the Chief would still have been wearing it longer therefore getting more damage on it. The Olive color is a mix of the armor's shine, the barren wasteland of Earth, and the sun. He appears Olive or Brown, because the 360 is capable of such lighting, But he's still his nice ol' Sage Green.

Bottom Line. It's him. It's an AR.

Bungie never said it was the Master Chief from the first two Halo games. All they said is that it was the Master Chief. There is a difference.

So your reasoning is that s/he has an assault rifle?

What if it isn't an assault rifle? It may be a new gun that just looks like one. I wish people would stop trying to come up with theories when there's only 1 1/2 minutes of footage to analyse.

-TGP-


I agree.

Its irriating that most people on here started speculating like crazy after they say the video, why can't they just believe what is in it? They have to go.. Oh no thats not an Assault rifle, and thats not John. Even though Bungie has clearly stated that it IS John. Stop with the stupidity people!

Yea they say it's the MC but they also said "we are not working on Halo 3"


Are you retarded?!? They never completely denied Halo 3, they just never admited to working on it. And on the latest update they clearly say it is not another Spartan.

who was that directed toward? if it was me, heres my reply

it doesnt necessarily even have to be in h3, the halo 2 announcement trailer had a similiar level in the game, but it wasnt there... an announcement trailer can just be showing off what its gonna look like, giving a sneak peek to the plot without actually directly revealing anything.

and for all the more spartan believing people

There wasn't much to show at the moment, since we're keeping things under warps for now, but CJ clued everyone in on the 3-mile wide Covenant artifact, Cortana's state of mind and the Chief (no it's not Linda, or Kelly…) battered Mjolnir armor.

thats in bungies last top story... that might mean more spartans. :D yay! and they confirm its the chief too. PWNED. EVERYONE WHO SAID ITS NOT... PWNED.

honestly people... who else could they refer to, after these 5 years of halo, when they say "The Chief" HONESTLY... its him. get real.

Hey, just getting back to my "Its the god damn lightning" train of though. It was ever so synically brought to my attention that the flash was at 1:12.

Hey great, you noticed a second flash in the clouds around the "eye of the storm" good for you. Still isn't a communication light. Wait a few more seconds and look at the damn sky. Notice lightning flashing IN THE CLOUDS? could be that. Maybe you should go look. It's at 1:12 for your information

You didn't pwn anyone, jack -BLAM!-. By "Master Chief" they could mean any of the thousands of miltary officers with the rank of Master Chief.

look between 1:00 and before cortana returns... 3 flashes and he NODS. It may be lightning or coincidence... but still don't rule out that it might not be acknowledgement lights... they may show on the outside for other spartans to confirm their acknowledgement was recieved... i know it can be lightning, i understand, but its a possibility, i just want you to level with that.

ROFL! I love when n00bs try to spell n00blet "nublet". It sounds so funny when you pronounce it how it would actually be pronounced.

By the way, you can't prove it's not another Spartan, so shut the -BLAM!- up.

I heard there are 7 halos not just 3, speaking of, is this game even based on a halo ring, cuz bungie said there wood be 7 halos. just replying to this








Posted by: MLG Cheehwawa
Of course they are different ranks, but if Our chief is a class 1 and the others are a class 2..technically they can be talking about another Spartan (though they probably aren't)

Oh, who is the idiot who said that the books have nothing to do with the games? Bungie helped the authors write them and made sure that they were acurate to their story.

Oh, on the back of the Halo CE box, it also says Pilot any Vehicle
What happened to that?


There are other Spartans alive, you will probably only run into them once or twice (or never) until the Story is concluded, since they want to keep the 'me against the universe' them going while playing the game. But after, we will hopefully get an extra long cutscene (and maybe a short movie about 10 mins long) to help us conclude the Trilogy..



And, the Spartans would be somewhere sle on Earth, since he was with the survivors (minus Kelly) on the ship when they returned to Earth...so they would get off at the same time but be sent all over. Remember, they never say 'there are no more Spartans' while playing, now did they? Read the books. Learn the Story.
