(To discuss Halo 4.)

The Ancient Enemy are the Precursors, that would be around 2/3 of the way in, the Didact is hostile along with Faber, the Covenant were angered by human attacks on their homeworld, both fight for Forerunner tech, while Faber and the Didact fight each other, finally, after Faber is defeated in the Reclaimer trilogy in general, all the surviving forces unite to fight the Precursors in Halo 6.

The Precursors goal: Destroy the Halo rings, thus preventing their own destruction.
Forerunners: Reestablishment of themselves in the galaxy, Faber and Didact settle their issues.
Humans: Power. Strength. Life. Simple as that. Technology as well.
Elites: Revenge. War. Forerunner Relics.

Halo ring will be in Halo 4, Requiem will be the planet "guarding" the installation, or maybe could encompass it, hidden in the core. Requiem itself would be gigantic, so much so, that you can't see the other side, unlike Halo Wars.

Halo ring may contain Precursors/Flood/Faber attempting to activate it and cleanse the galaxy of life for their own establishment.

Flood will return in Halo 4, but won't be hostile, or be hinted at.

The forces will reunite to take on the bigger enemy, that is what Halo is about, joining forces to fight a common enemy.

That theme was intensely portrayed in the first trilogy, it will also be portrayed in the last.

Also, ONI will screw up multiple times in the Reclaimer Trilogy, perhaps even joining forces with the Precursors, who promise them power and Reclamation, (kind of like the Illusive Man/Cerberus), but instead try to use ONI etc.

However, the UNSC will still be present, the Spartan 4's may/will rebel, ONI next's major project, probably yet to be revealed, may make up the enemy in Halo 5/6. And I don't think it will be Spartans.

How the Flood may be used as a biological weapon is also going to probably pop up here or there.

Discuss.

What's wrong with it? If Halo canon common sense will be preserved, the real enemy is the Precursors, the other races have issues but they eventually reunite.

I don't doubt that the Precursors may be antagonists but if they are, like any antagonists, I want them to have a good excuse for being so.

The Precursors goal: Destroy the Halo rings, thus preventing their own destruction.
Why would the Rings be a threat to them? They may be capable of destroying them, but like any weapon it needs a wielder. Who is trying to harm them and why? If the Precursors first threatened whoever is trying to kill them, what reasons did the Precursors have to do that?

Forerunners: Reestablishment of themselves in the galaxy, Faber and Didact settle their issues.
I don't understand why the Didact would be hostile after admitting, in Cryptum, that he and the others were wrong about the Human-Forerunner war. Of course the story isn't finished and there's still plenty of time for an ass-pull, but as of right now he seemed to regret his actions and in shame avoided the subject as much as he could whenever it was brought up.

And the Forerunners are also a race of people, not robots. Does the everyday family parent like Born's mother and father want to see Human worlds burn and subjugated to Forerunner hegemony? Is their whole society lacking a moral centre? Why do they want to rule the galaxy now? How would someone as corrupt and petty as Faber (Or a genocidal Didact for that matter) gain a following of Forerunner PEOPLE large enough to challenge the galaxy upfront?

Elites: Revenge. War. Forerunner Relics.
Completely 2-dimensional alien race. They may as well just wipe out the Elites if they did that. They can hardly be considered a believable society if that happened.

Also, ONI will screw up multiple times in the Reclaimer Trilogy, perhaps even joining forces with the Precursors, who promise them power and Reclamation, (kind of like the Illusive Man/Cerberus), but instead try to use ONI etc.
This is another thing 343i need to stop. This demonization of ONI that they are so infatuated with, and the whole alter-ego that they have been giving them that has grown like a cancer on the side of the fiction. ONI is not a conglomerate of super-villian chessmasters, it is an organization of normal 9 till 5 people working at a desk, or working in a lab. I would imagine that only a small percentage actually perform wetwork and other shady tasks. People, 343i included, seem to have this idea that everyone at ONI sits around a big table, draped in shadows, smoking cigars and petting white cats. It's under the oversight of the UNSC. If ONI goes AWOL, then who exactly does that imply, and how does the UNSC not know about it, having full control of ONIs budget?

the Spartan 4's may/will rebel
Ehh, the Spartans were always something that people looked up to, and were/are considered saviours of Humanity. I'm not sure what the point of making the next generation of Spartans enemies would be, nor do I think it would be all that great to Halo's fiction. Spartans fighting to destroy Humanity seems a little ridiculous.

If Halo's theme is, as you say, uniting, then your plot would actually make a statement against that. In this, no one tolerates anyone else and it's a false unity with people merely seeking to use others as an abrasive against the real threat, which is what would happen when everyone wants to be top dog with a profound hatred of everyone else. This sort of stuff can't be handwaved away, and if you want it so that everyone does unite for everyone's well-being rather than eventual end-game supremacy then you may as well go for a more optimistic setting where everyone isn't trying to exterminate each other.

All it really says is that peace and unity is actually impossible, and that you always need war in order to grant the false illusion of "peace".

I don't doubt that the Precursors may be antagonists but if they are, like any antagonists, I want them to have a good excuse for being so.

-They want to reclaim the galaxy, humans have failed the test.
I think human's might consider using the ring for localized incidents, that atrocity angers the Precursors for whatever reason or motive.

Why would the Rings be a threat to them? They may be capable of destroying them, but like any weapon it needs a wielder. Who is trying to harm them and why? If the Precursors first threatened whoever is trying to kill them, what reasons did the Precursors have to do that?

-Forerunners want to finish off the Precursors once and for all, the other species are just meddlers who either aren't worth their time or a nuisance. Humanity is key to who they forge their alliances with. The rings, if you recall, are weapons, and they destroy all the Precursor junk. Therefore, by destroying the rings, not only do the Flood have easy meal time for the next 1000000 years, they have no major resistance from anybody.


I don't understand why the Didact would be hostile after admitting, in Cryptum, that he and the others were wrong about the Human-Forerunner war. Of course the story isn't finished and there's still plenty of time for an ass-pull, but as of right now he seemed to regret his actions and in shame avoided the subject as much as he could whenever it was brought up.
And the Forerunners are also a race of people, not robots. Does the everyday family parent like Born's mother and father want to see Human worlds burn and subjugated to Forerunner hegemony? Is their whole society lacking a moral centre? Why do they want to rule the galaxy now? How would someone as corrupt and petty as Faber (Or a genocidal Didact for that matter) gain a following of Forerunner PEOPLE large enough to challenge the galaxy upfront?

-The first Didact might have something to do with this. Or the fact that the Librarian's death leaves him idle, and resentful. He hated the human race because of their expansionist policies and the attack on the Forerunner colonies, that sounds a lot like Post War Humanity. Humanity has been fiddling with his plan to take over the galaxy, although he does share feelings of resentment, those change, because the Forerunners are crushed, while somehow humanity holds the "Mantle". That or destroying 04+Ark ruined his plans for revenge on the Precursors.


Completely 2-dimensional alien race. They may as well just wipe out the Elites if they did that. They can hardly be considered a believable society if that happened.

They are a 2 dimensional race, they have been searching for Forerunner relics even before the HC war inception. If that is your opinion, so be it, but NOT ALL the Elites are 2 dimensional. Frankie said it was a splinter group.

This is another thing 343i need to stop. This demonization of ONI that they are so infatuated with, and the whole alter-ego that they have been giving them that has grown like a cancer on the side of the fiction.

If ONI goes AWOL, then who exactly does that imply, and how does the UNSC not know about it, having full control of ONIs budget?

Agreed, ONI is getting out of hand, but a budget is worthless, if ONI starts to take possession of things, of power, of colonies, of technology. Money is required to pay people, but ONI slowly being revealed as their own personal army.

Ehh, the Spartans were always something that people looked up to, and were/are considered saviours of Humanity. I'm not sure what the point of making the next generation of Spartans enemies would be, nor do I think it would be all that great to Halo's fiction. Spartans fighting to destroy Humanity seems a little ridiculous.

I meant rebel against ONI, their creators.

I disagree, in the first trilogy, everyone also had their own ambitions, in the second trilogy, that also applies. This time, for real, they will unite and finish the fight, again, maybe setting up a 3rd trilogy where we fight the Grunt Empire with the UNSC Over 9000 on Sigma 7 with Spartan 5's to support.

If the Reclaimer Trilogy is the end of Halo's story via timeline, the last Halo trilogy, then this will apply, otherwise, a third trilogy in 10 years does seem likely; Microsoft will need to get some games.

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

The trilogy will end with another emotional death: Cortana becoming rampant and the Chief having to put her down in a better fashion than Bungie did with 343GS.

Either that, or she will achieve metastability and go on with the Chief.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

This needs to be said more often. Right now, the ONI is pretty much only used as a cheap device to conjure up cool tech and unconventional--supposedly thrilling--covert operations. They have truly been turned into Cerberus. I mean, what's Parangosky gonna do next, desperately try to make a deal with the Precursors, Illusive Man style?

Halo multiplayer sucks!

Based on campaigns

Halo 2 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo 3 > Reach/CE tied

I think the Prometheans are trying to kill chief because they know who he is and they know he has destroyed a lot of precious forerunner installations and artifacts. They see him as a threat and are trying to kill him off.

I also think that later on, the Prometheans and other forerunner AIs, maybe even the forerunners themselves, will ally with ONI or other humans against the Chief. The forerunners promise ONI and the humans something in exchange for Chief lying dead. Chief must battle forerunners and other humans. Later, the precursors ally with the chief and battle against the forerunners and ONI, and maybe even the covenant will ally with the chief if it means they get to fight against humans.

Yes...because the Flood was running loose on Alpha and Delta Halo and the Ark. Also, there is another Ark. Why would the Forerunners care so much about a machine rather than the well being of the galaxy.

I think Humanity failing whatever "test" the Precursors made for us would be the best out of this. "Reclaiming the galaxy" is just too typical and cliché. Of course finding out what that test is is what it all comes down to. Rather than Humanity basically being stupidly evil like using Halo's for their own gain in wiping out other species, (The UNSC turning into the Imperium of Man is quite a stretch. I mean how could we go from what we are today in which genocide is considered a shocking, disgusting act of barbarism to nonchalant xenocide?) maybe the Precursors decide that their creations across the galaxy have failed to live up to their expectations. Human-Covenant war, Human-Forerunner war, Sangheili-San Shyuum war, all the wars the Elites and Prophets fought on other Covenant races, the Forerunners rebelling against the Precursor, and then the state of post Halo 3 affairs, I wouldn't be surprised if the Precursors said "-blam!- it, we're starting again".

Then it might be that the story involves the races, or some individuals being proof of concept, proving the Precursors wrong, and that they can, more or less, peacefully co-exist and somewhat live by the Mantle, or just end up trying to stop the Precursors in the end if that isn't possible.

Yes but that's the Didact. He still has to get people to agree with him, and if he is in a very irrational and emotionally compromised mood, and asks people to basically butcher billions for him then he just going to get locked up in the Forerunner equivalent of a mental asylum. AI are easy to get away with because you can just say "Oh well he programmed them to obey his every command". But an entire species sharing his extreme xenophobia and intolerance towards Humanity, for reasons that are partially only related to the Didact himself, is stretching things a bit too far.

Even then, he didn't like what Humanity did with its invasion, but he understood it in light of the Flood threat. (And this 343i theme about Humanity being expansionistic is also annoying. It's almost as if they think that the galaxy is a small place and that no other species would want or need to do colonize. They've even to define what "over-colonization" means. They are just throwing it around to generate more pointless drama.)

I want Elite characters who think about things beyond "Prey to the Forerunners. Forerunners this; Forerunners that. I'm so strong. Rawr! Now lets go kill some Humans". This is either something 343i can fix, or they can be lazy and not bother, and still have "The Elites" fight wars over pieces of metal like they did with the Prophets before the Covenant. I'm getting tired of reading "Someone did this with Forerunner technology, therefore the Elites went to war with them". That sounds like an extremely stupid species who frankly wouldn't reach the space age if they were that delusional and hysterical. Of course they can always cop out by saying that there were no other interpretations of their faith to fight and nuke each other over, and no economic or political issues to fight over either. That's why if they ever explored the Sangheili-Prophet war, I hope that it turns out to be some tragic error on someone's part or a fatal misunderstanding rather than "You're touching Forerunner stuff, therefore we are ALL going to kill you now". I'm pretty sure that the Sangheili would have been very interested in meeting another form of sentient life that isn't one of their own and learning that they are not alone in the universe during that period when they didn't know of any others, and I doubt that the first thought on their mind was war.

Once the Grunt Empire is defeated though, I can see Empress Parangosky II dealing arms to dissident Grunt factions to start a civil war and weaken what's left. So the fight might not be finished there. Maybe the tag line could be "Finish the fight - sort of" or "Almost Finish the Fight"?

Something humans do might outrage him, perhaps a controlled release of the Flood?

Halo 2 did it well, we played as the Arbiter, the Elites became interesting characters with their own personal stories, as I explained to Grey, Halo 3 ruined it, I still hate it as the worst Halo campaign to date, Bungie listened to fan complaints, and Halo 3 became water filtered in the story department.

Meh. I am starting to hate the future of Halo more and more everyday.

"Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before." - James T Kirk

What I want to know is how the UNSC managed to reverse engineer Forerunner technology in a few years when it took ages to reverse engineer Jackal shields.

And how did ONI find out about the Didact?

Technology is exponential, once they had experience in the field, they were able to do so.

Also, I believe they got the whole bloody Dyson sphere and Engineers.

That would speed up anything immensely, even human AI can't compete.

OP, you make Halo sound ridiculously overrated in some way by saying "they always pair up to defeat a common enemy", but in good sense most games, movies, fictions etc turn out in that case anyway.

Halo series in my guess is ending in the revealing of all Forerunner situations and what not. Covenant is dead, by dead I don't mean they are extinct, plausibly, no, not really, but anyway, I mean we don't care about them anymore, and the war is over anyway. S-IV's are ridiculous. I hate them, if they rebeled they wouldn't be a problem. They are watered down ops in a class two MJOLNIR. III's and II's are perfectly enhanced soldiers who breath tactics and battle since they were 6. They are what, the surivors, 35 or something now? Yeah, ops aren't in that long of experience, and training wont make up for that.


I really don't know. It's a whole new company, if it were Bungie still... not only will we be getting a lot of hints, but we'd catch on to the storyline for the future installments. Just a theory.
