I speculated 3 things:
1. The Arc Guikty Spark mentioned was the Forunner ship
2. the Arc is a Forunner facility on Earth
3. The Arc IS Earth.
Judging by the trailer, I'd say it's number 2.
I really feel like I need to play Halo1 and 2 again. Some of the issues raised in this thread just make it more confusing.
The Hierachs already intended to go Earth, but Regret made a mistake by going there ahead of plan. I recon that after the civil war broke, and the Flood attacked High Charity, all that was left of the covenant fleet went to attack Earth. Or did they? It's a bit odd going from civil war, to warp jumping, to attacking earth.
So Either they finished the civil war, then attacked earth, or the ones attacking Earth were sent prior to the start of the civil war. Sadly, there's not much indication of either in Halo 2: but I recon the fleet that attacked Earth was sent before the civil war, and the ones that remained at High Charity were either destroyed in the war, or by the flood. But hang on, in Halo 2 doesn't Cortana say that Regret is going to lead the Covenant fleet to Earth? (and hence, after the war has already broke) Yet we also clearly see that the ship arrives when the attack on earth has already started? It just doesn't add up. It feels like sloppy writing to me, but we'll have to wait see Halo 3.
What worries me the most about where this story is going is, will you still fight the Elites in Halo 3? And if you don't that also mean you wont fight the Grunts? And the Hunters? If I didn't fight against them, I'd probably snap the disk in two, and send back to Bungie.
I now believe that the Forerunners were not humans, but we evolved from creatures ( i.e. primates) that emerged from the Arc. If that's the case, are there some forerunners still perserved in the Arc? Will they turn out to be evil? Will they be uglier than the Elites? Shorter than the Grunts? Dumber than the Brutes? Will they try to activate the Arc again once the flood show up? Is any body reading to me?
At the end of the day, it's all spaculation.
As for the last part, Forerunners = Humans...
Will they look more primitive as we looked (when they left us on Earth), or will we look more advanced than we do now (since we would be re-evolving to become them)
And for the Arks, I have a pretty good idea on what may happen..
Earth = Noah's Ark
Structure from trailer = Control room for the Ark..Ark of the Covenant, and this sets of the Halos.
