I was playing Campain today when I noticed something that I hadn't noticed before. During the opening cutscene for the level Delta Halo, when Masterchief drops down to halo in the Hell Jumper Pods. Look in the background while it falls. You notice that the land in the backround looks alot like Africa. And when you watch it again you realize that it is Africa. And when you look even closer yoe see the Middle East on the right of the pod. I meen you can frickin see Saudia Arabia and part of the Red Sea.

Now to me this seems like proof that The Forerunners are from Earth. Because why else would they model Halo's topography around it. This at least shows that that Earth was very important to the Forerunners.

Just go and look for yourself

This thread is a perfect example of how every question in history has been asked in this forum.

your dumb dude seriously, first off the people who were behidn the design of halo possibly used those for shortcuts.

secondly in th ehalo story the rings were made like billions of years ago
were was the continents one arth at that time?

PANGEA

*lol* Gotta admit. I'm with Koto on that one. Consider this idea sufficiently debunked.

They are Forerunners they can probably account for continental drift. plus it wasn't billions. Guilty Spark 343 said it was about 100,000 standard years. Plus I don't think that Bungie would take a shortcut like that. If it looks like Africa and the Middle east It is was supposed to look like Africa and the Middle East.

yeah, i don't buy this theory either.

even if you dont agree with Pangea (it IS a theory, not a proven fact), it still wouldn't make sense. Plus, The forerunners didnt make the halos in reality, Bungie did. That means that Bungie created the topography of the Halos, so there's a good chance that it would end up looking like earth.

Oh yeah and the continents drift only a couple of inches in a year. So earth wasn't still Pangea back then. If you even know what Pangea is.

the forerunners are not from earth. they can't be, because the forerunners activeated the rings and destroyed both themselves and all other life. There is no way for life to evole from microscopic life forms into something as evolved as the human race in 100,000 years. Also just because there is a cut scene from instalation 04 from the year 2552 of the middle east does'nt mean that the fore runners where from earth. Further more wouldn't it be reasonable to asume that the forerunners modled the rings after earth, since the climate on both instalation 04 and 02 are the same as earth's.

A mythic member but I speak my mind to much.

I say the movie sen on HBO it looks alot like africa but not so much to convince me that they modeled Halo's after Earth. Just look at it again then look at a map you'll see.

that would just show that the forerunners breathed the same atmosphere. But this shows that Earth was obviously very important to the forerunners at least. And I don't mean to be critical but the Halos don't destroy all life only sentient life. So it wouldn't persay kill all the monkeys and other primates that humans evolved from. And that can happen in 100,000 thousand years.

What is installation 02? I thought that installation 04 was halo 1's ring and 05 was halo 2's ring. I could be wrong though

alot of people just get the numbers wrong since they aren't mentioned that often. It is 04 and 05.

Ummm u put 10,000 years, not 100,000. Just to help you fix that mistake.

Yeah, i figured this out a good 5 months ago buddy. But hey, its still a good find.
I also thought it was wierd, and made the same speculation you did. Nice job.

AHHHH YES! if you look at the end of the fall of reach, cortana says" its a structure, and it has the same gravitational fields as earth" hmmm, does that give you any ideas? considering she's talking about halo.

Dude im equiped like a small rodent, what would you do?

Well...what if the continents on the Halos also have continental drift? then earth now and the halos now would look somewhat similar. just an idea

Alot of stuff would realy start to make sense if the Forerunners evolved on Earth. For one it would explain why alot of thier artifacts seem to be on human occupied planets sense we would inhabit the same planets as them due to atmospheric conditions.
