We've all seen the trailer, and many have pointed out that the Covenant's ships start to scramble as the structure starts doing its thing. As I watched again, it occured to me: if the structure is firing or doing something of that nature, why does the Chief seem to simply stand there watching it?

Anyone think this is intriguing at all?

Frank O'Connor is a 12-year veteran of the videogame magazine industry and has therefore never worked an honest day in his life.

I think it's a vistion. why else would she say this is how the world ends.

Thats a bump, and bumps are bad, but if you must have a response I'll bite.

He's the Chief and nothing phases him.

Well, I thought about it, but mabey and here are a few theories
first: the Ships are being knocked backward by the "dusty blast" then the banshees decide it would be stupid to sit there and watch so they run. I dont think that its a killing blast, just one the covenant knew would give them a good shaking if they were too close. All this time mc is staring because he dosnt know what its gonna do. Then the light flashes and hes caught in a bug zapper effect. The kind where its so pretty you cant look away.

Or the covenant didn't know it was going to activate so they didn't have time to run far, it is a killing blast, and the master cheif figures he's screwed, running or not running.

cause Chief knows what it does and there is no use running. He knows that it if is on kill mode hes a gonnar but if its just charging he'd be ready to do sumthing.

I don't know but I have a feeling that that thing is what the prophets were looking for to activate the rings.

Well yes your theory does make sense but that dosnt say anything about why the cheif dosnt run, thats just what it does. Unless he knows what it does wich i doubt. But yeah good idea, the artifact probably is a beacon or something
if its not the arc itself
