Thank you. I'm going to watch the bonus DVD again where the Ark appears and see if I can find any other details.

Yeah, I wish I had the special edition DVD. But alas a former room maet of mine took my spec. ed. Halo 2 when I moved out and i am stuck with just a regular copy. There was all sorts of kick ass stuff on that DVD.

This is the funniest thread I've read on these forums. Only Halo nerds can take something from a game trailer, dissect it into a trillion pieces and then formulate a "theory" about the who, what, where, when, why, and how in Halo 3. Not even Warhammer nerds could do that. Truly quite amazing (in a pathetic sort of way).

Why do you insist on coming back here and mocking this thread? Got nothing better to do, or what? Sod off!

I would like to remind you that anyone who has the time to create an account and then post is automatically a Halo nerd.

I'm glad that you think we Halo nerds can analyze better than the Warhammer nerds. I'll take that as a complement to the community. Your entire post could have been fine until the whole "in a pathetic sort of way" part and the fact you thought this thread was funny. Because after that, your just being an ass that posted a negative off topic comment.

I would say that upon that event the Ark, which has been causing more seismic activity from segments of it moving the land to it's will, moved itself into position to be activated.
I believe that your theory has a chance of being correct, but this segment sort of poked me as improbable. That the Ark could control weather or other earth forces by itself is probably a reach in the dark.

"Interesting... the weather patterns here seem natural, not artificial. I wonder if the ring's environment systems are malfunctioning... or if the designers wanted the installation to have inclement weather." as observed by Cortana.

True that its possible that the enviroment systems could be more powerful than the Halo 04's was, and that the seismic activity could be a defense mechanism, but theres no way you can attribute every earthquake in earth's history as the ark defending itself or setting itself up for activation. Those earthquakes are random and due to the forces of all of earth. It would take massive amounts of power to control all of the earth's seismic power, which might be done but its definatly not pratical.

The second side of that "or" is what I see as more likely, that the forerunners built instalations that went with the flow of nature instead of commanding it. This is alot more practical approach to placing the instalation in the middle of warring tectonic plates.

Excellent point.

BTW, love the "Firefly" clip in your sig. Awesome!

It has the word "Halo" in its title. That means an automatic campaign playthrough for me.

Personally, I have already come to the conclusion that the thing in the trailer is a (portal?- Need a better word), and that the Ark itself is at the core of the planet (BTW I also think that the Forerunner made the Earth, specifically to be the "Vessel" [not as in a ship, just as a place to put it] in which the Ark rests.) Also I do belive that it took a slipspace rupture from when Regret jumped inside New Mombassa, so I am pretty sure that it can withstand 100,000+ years of earthquakes. =P
