"Shall we let the Flood consume our holy city? Turn High Charity into another of their wretched hives? No enemy has ever withstood our might. The Flood, too, shall fail."

-Prophet of Truth.

Almost every Halo game ended with destroying a particular structure or object and getting away from the catastrophic result. The only exceptions would be ODST, Reach, and 2(although in 2 Cortana would have destroyed IACs core, similar to CE)

Imo it would make sense that at some point Chief would probably have to destroy Requim, via Infinity's reactor cores.

Think about it, in CE and 2 the PoA and IAC both crashed and in PoAs case it's reactor cores were destroyed. IACs would have if Tartarus managed to fully ativate Delta Halo.

Plus towards the end of the Halo 4 gameplay it does show a brief glimpse of Chief piloting a ghost while the land was falling apart.

It would be epic if the run would be extremely long but as juicy as ever . We could start out near the Infinity and have to make a warthog run across the ship to the reactors and blow it up . Afterwards the Chief may take a spare aircraft out as the reactors blow and Requiem destabilizes . After which the ship crash lands due to A) EMP B) enemy fire. Either way he takes a Ghost through a deteriorating landscape to another ship to escape. Maybe the Spirit of Fire? Who knows. 343i is working hard to tie up all loose ends. Even the Halo Wars cliffhanger

Ohhhh, I like that reference to the Spirit of Fire. That would be a crazy way to end Halo 4. But if Requim is destroyed I wonder what the next 2 games would be about?

That's the thing . And I doubt the Infinity needs destroying at this point because the three-game arc revolves around it . Maybe yes there will be runs but I doubt it is to destroy Requiem or the Infinity . Besides at the end of the demo , amongst the montage of game scenes , one depicts the Infinity in the air above the Chief, meaning its thrusters were re-activated

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Maybe, we'll see.

Halo games with end run - CE and 3
Halo games without end run - 2, ODST and Reach.

Not sure where you're getting almost all from bud.


OT I hope so as I enjoyed both CE's and Halo 3's final level.

I don't think it will involve blowing up Requiem because we've been waiting about 5 years for a sequel to the Halo 3 story and they are just introducing a brand new planet with so much potential and a brand new ship, which the multiplayer revolves around. You know what I'm saying?

I hope so - the ending to Halo 3 was good fun - especially with that epic music!

343i will not destory the Infinity. They have basicly based the whole game around it.

ODST had a run in the ending. It still counts toward that run end.

  • 06.05.2012 5:58 PM PDT

Yea, pretty much my guess as well.

Spartan Ops takes place six months after the main story has concluded and takes place on Requiem (source), so we don't destroy the planet at the end.

Yeah it won't make sense too that a reactor could destroy the planet. I mean yes it can blow up a Halo or High Charity but not an entire planet. Take Halo Wars for example. They needed the artificial sun to overload using the FTL drive their ship had to blow up the planet

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

All Halo games have had a final run in sort of way to understand it. Maybe not exactly as CE and 3 had it, but nonetheless a sort of final run.

And I agree, I hope there is a final run at the end of Halo 4. I loved the final run in both CE and 3.

I doubt the Requiem will be destroyed, Spartan Ops takes place after the Halo 4 campaign and it looks like at least some of the missions will take place on Requiem.

It wouldn't surprise me to see some kind of vehicle run at the end though.

EDIT: Someone beat me to the first part of my post, but yeah.
