Then finally when the MC saves the world at the end of the game Cortana or the sergent or that Keyes girl or someone who knew the chief will whisper to him "you finished the fight" and then theyll blast him in the back of the head with a shotgun, whilst crying.


Isn't that the ending from Old Yeller?

i think that would be cool, but instead of the MC it should be the arbiter and the chief'll kill him, while sad music plays and cortana cries, because over the course of the game the arbiter has become a beloved member of the UNSC as well as the MC's friend.

here is the winning last cutscene:
the chief is in the middle of a giant explosion (whatever needs to be blown up the chief did it with seconds to spare), and everyone thinks he is dead. then when johnson, keyes and cortana are walking through the wreckage paying their respects to the chief, you spot him in the background and he takes off his helmet and walks away to find peace.

you saying chief ends up in the explosion and starts drifting off into space, and than keyes is crying because she thinks chief is dead?and you saying they looking at the wreckage paying their respects to chief.and than keyes spots chief in the wreckage and shouts,''Johnson its chief look!!!!!!''johnson is like,''i know we all miss him but your mind is really playing tricks on you.''they than go into slipspace and in the credits it shows MC chief drifting away into space.

No dude he blew up like a covie ship on earth or something and everyone thought he died. then as they search for his body and cant find it he takes off his helmet and walks away to live on earth without fighting again.

The only way MC would just walk away is if he was done and i mean no more covenant no more flood no more war then he would walk away and i think a better ending is if he is reunited with all of the remaning spartens and they all walk away together

i hate that idea, no offense, it's just too weird

although, i would hate any idea involving the chief's death at the end, but still, getting his ass blown up by his own guys? hmm

I think the master chief should be taken by the flood at some point over the course of the game in Halo 3. The MC will still try and complete his missions (whatever the hell they are in halo 3) , but slowly as you play, the HUD will become infested with puss and flood-like extensions. By the end of the game you'll play as an almost completely controlled by the flood MC and as you play as him he'll jerk in different directions than as you aim with the joystick and he'll squezze the trigger of his AR periodically...and he'll look totally mutated and grotesque. So as the MC struggles to finish his last mission to save the world, he'll be struggling against the compromising force of the flood embedded deep within him. Then finally when the MC saves the world at the end of the game Cortana or the sergent or that Keyes girl or someone who knew the chief will whisper to him "you finished the fight" and then theyll blast him in the back of the head with a shotgun, whilst crying.


nononnononononononono


and no

how much fun would it be to have ur gun shooting randomly...(what if its a rocket) and having your guna twitch. that wouldnt be fun in the least. it would be annoying.


and hes not guna save the world! wer all GUNA DIE. think about it we have two options:

1.ativate halo to stop the flood. we die.
2.dont activate the halos and let the flood overwhelm us becuase they have control of high charity and could go onywer they want. we die.

if u can think of another option we have id like to hear it

No. Let's make it a good ending instead.

  • 06.23.2006 8:21 PM PDT

"For you, the day that the Hicks graced your village was the most important day of your life. For me...it was Tuesday."

I am just going to post this again because I thought I made a few good points and more people are active now.

A few people are saying that the Master Chief will not die because he is too "bad ass" or that his death would be too depressing. The fact of the matter is that the Master Chief NEEDS to die in Halo 3. Why? Because he is a soldier that is built for the covenant war, and only the covenant war. He is feared by the covenant, and revered by the humans. But when the war is over, he will not have a hero's welcome. It would most likely be something like what happended to Ender in the Ender's Games books: every nation on Earth would want to claim him as the leader of their armies, but none can be allowed to have him. The obvious answer to this problem is to kill the Master Chief. But that is just lame and Bungie knows it. They will make him die a heroic death in Halo 3, I guarantee it.

But how? He has to fight off a covenant fleet, destroy the flood, -blam!-slap Cortana and find out what the hell is wrong with her, and somehow destroy or disable the rings.

The object in Africa is obviously the Ark. Earth was attacked by the Covenant in Halo 2 not because it was human turf (they didn't know humans were there) but more likely because they were looking for the Ark. So as far as the chief taking care of the rings, he will probably reclaim the Ark from the Covenant and than either make the rings self destruct or disable them.

As far as the Gravemind is concerned, I do not agree with Forsaken Raik that the Gravemind is a forerunner. Its more likely that he either controls the flood, or helps control them (multiple Graveminds perhaps? One per ring?). I do not think the flood will come up in Halo 3. None of the flood were on Regret's ship (as far as we know) and they are contained on the rings. Bungie could have it so the flood learned how to fly a few ships that were left behind, and it is perfectly plausible, but that would make Earth too chaotic I think. A war on three fronts?

So here is how it goes: the humans fight the covenant on Earth and have a chance of winning (since the covenant can't glass the planet. They need the Ark.), the Master Chief either rejoins the surviving Spartans of Reach or the newly trained Spartans that Mendoza trained after the Master Chiefs group, and they go and beat all the ass at the Ark. It could end up being that the Spartans fight there way to the control center, but most of the Spartans are dead by the end of the struggle and it is left up to the chief to finish the job. Maybe like a classic "we will hold this point. Finish the mission!" kind of thing. And then the Master Chief faces impossible odds, even for him, but is able to destroy the rings by using the control center but has to sacrifice himself.

Oh, or maybe it could be that after the initial breach of the Arks defenses, the Spartans split up and plant charges throughout the facility to blow it to hell, and after they plant the explosives they get tied down inside by a ridiculous number of Covenant and decided to detonate the explosives to save humanity.

Just a thought.

I like the story line but the controls would suck causeing more ppl to hate the Campaign mode
also The flood in halo2 were really really boring they were to easy to kill cause u pretty much always had a sword or shotty. I hated doin the flood lvls cause they were so mindless and dull

In halo1 They were actually smart and apposed a threat, the only threat they have is their melee attack (which they usually miss)

I think the story should be The Arbiter is at a Cairo station or something.

I have been playing AREA 51 for some time now,and on one point the main character gets infested by an alien that bites him.He then strugles to find an antidote and finish his mission.
I think you are thinking someothing like that.

great idea! /sarcasm

honestly, do you want to be playing through the campaign and have yourself randomly jerking around a shooting? talk about a frustratting game to play.

if master chief gets injected by the flood, at least make it so he retains control long enough to do what he has to do.

What's wrong with random jerkin? Is it okay if no one is around..?

or he will find a way to destroy all flood but not thier hosts...and then he and all infected humans and elites will become normal again.

Are you joking? They have a gaping hole in their chests, and thir insides are melting..their brains are also mush.

I really agree with Gaming Guru, the chief is nothing but a war machine, so when the fightings over theres just no use of him left......except for being maybe Robo cop or something. I also agree with the topic creator, the cheif bein infected by the flood would be cool but not in the aspect of just rotting away and jerking around, instead bein infected by the flood would give him increase in strength and speed or something. Have the chief gradually go insane, like if he had rabies. But on the means of a dramatic and tear jerking ending......well, i think that is quite inevitable, Bungie has been known to be really good at making super dramatic endings with lots of explosions.
