ok forerunners are dead. been established already. covenant are a remote possibility. precursors are only viable option at this point.

The enemy will most likely be the remaining Precursor. But it is fun to think of far-fetched possibilities.

Whoever the enemy is has telekinesis. It was a leaked footage thing. Follow Halo4Follower on youtube he comes out with brand new news constantly that actually shows some good stuff.

what makes him any more credible than us? and telekinesis is VERY far fetched. a little too so. and most leaked footage is fraud.

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Forerunners aren't dead.

That was a rejected concept, check Nathan Walpole's site, he is an employee at 343.

"I may not be perfect, but always been true."

Seriously, you need to be on date with current Halo canon before stating things like "Forerunners are dead." or "No Spartan IV's." At least do some research before posting.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Well now it's Covenant space pirates and...something else.

No, you've got it wrong.

We are going to be facing the Ewok Empire.

I still think there'll be a surprise battle toad invasion... >.>

Friggin deal with it

I'm just wondering if the Militant faction of the Sanghelli will play any roll (from Glasslands)

Lets just wait and see.

The enemy has to be something we know of. There is no way 343i are going to pull a new enemy from nowhere. I'm guessing it's Forerunners and it MAY be ONI. These Spartan Ops missions may be having you go after John to kill him.

The enemy wont be food.

  • 04.11.2012 1:59 AM PDT

I believe that the main enemy is the precursors, as they were meant to create/be the flood, and flood like terrain can be seen in halo 4 first look:

KOTOR

Well, some of the images recently released shows the Chief fighting Elites and Grunts. So...Covenant remnants?

When in doubt, throw bombs at it.

Shortly after Halo 4 was unveiled this life form was added to the bestarium on Halo Waypoint

Note on that last part, reproduction of individuals is prohibited, the Forerunners ran tests on Flood but not this Caveat witch they know even less about compared to the Precursors? Seem like they are a force to be reckoned with. Perhaps this 'Ancient Evil'.

Edit: Although I am heavily confused why they added this, but have yet to officially reveal anything about the Ancient Evil

Are you really that dumb? Seriously.

Please, take a minute to Google the definition of caveat:

Caveat can be shorthand for Latin phrases such as:
Caveat lector, "let the reader beware"
Caveat emptor, "let the buyer beware"
Caveat venditor, "let the seller beware"


This "supposed" creature is nothing but a warming to the lector that the sources are not confirmed, it even says so right there on the text!

That's a note, telling you that the investigation is not complete or that the sources are not verifiable.

That is pretty much them saying "we cannot create the creatures listed here, since it is prohibited for us to experiment and analyse a living individual." - By this text, we can assume that the beastiarium is nothing more but the database that was used to classify the species that were to be reintroduced after the Halo Array fired, hence their lack of authorization to analyse them as they only had a limited amount of DNA/RNA/Silicone samples.

Seriously people, a little reading comprehension and a quick Google search can do wonders!

I have no idea, but i dont think the enemy is human(s)

I got the feeling this game will be good

  • 04.12.2012 1:21 AM PDT

In memory of those fallen in the defense of Earth and her colonies.

March 3, 2553

No.

Simply no.

  • 04.12.2012 4:49 AM PDT

Precursors they will once again test Humanity to see if they are worthy to carry on the mantle.

  • 04.12.2012 6:58 AM PDT

Peace.

My guess is it is going to be a mix of covenant baddies, flood, and possibly forerunners. The forerunners are such a mysterious group, I'd love to know who or what they are.

The elites and grunts could be not the ones we know it is probably a rebelion against each other and if you seen halo legends elites were against each other so my guess is that those are new type of covenent and probably the new type and the flood might be in it it depends the campaign of the story of the game and the forunners cant be in the game because if u understand halo legends and the books they went extinct after bringing life back on each planet and they remain dead but not their armour

The elites


The Elites might be in a state of full civil war for all we know, it could be an explanation to why some of them are going after Forerunner artifacts still (why else would they show up at this Forerunner place?). So you may have Zealots still fighting, and didn't Frankie say there would be no Purple?
