Why does everyone seem to think that all the covy ships/phantoms/banshees on earth in the trailer are enemies? how do we know that they arnt allied elites? why else would they not be shooting at the chief and he is walking the same way that they are all headed right out in the open without getting shot at. maybe they just dropped him off a little away from the site of the artifact and he is walking up to it and maybe the trailer takes place midway through the game and they find out they need to activate the ark. just thinking out loud. not saying anything is for sure

Yes... A lot of people have said the same thing that you have, I know you didn't know that but many people pointed that out right when it came out.

the elites are still at HC, being killed off in a genocidal lock for life or death with the brutes. i doubt they would suddenly win, arrive with FRESH SHIPS and circle around chief. remember, just because arbie is sided with johnson and keyes doesnt mean human and elites are friends. not to mention, the bulk of the elite army isnt even aware of this "truce"

its a nice theory, but its just not plausible right now.

Well, The Arbiter has the final say in everything and he is reasonable after all that's happened. Of course, we could still be fighting Elites as they go on with their own agenda, at least until Arbiter sorts out the mess.

There's still alot of Elite-controlled cruisers. Not all Truth's fleet are Brutes, but we don't know how the battle over High Charity went.

The theory isn't so much as new. It's just a trailer. Nothing more, nothing less. No one can know for sure whether the Covenant ships are allies or enemies. It's just a dramatic opening teaser. Sheesh..

all of yall have good theory's but it is a real good posibility that we allied with the covenit and yea the trailer is 2/3 way through the game but none of us can really say what is really happening so we will just have to wait till the game come's out to really find out

Just because it's law, doesn't mean it's true.

ICEMEAN no one ever said that the elites were losing... If I remember correctly both factions were shooting eachother up something fierce in the end of Halo 2... In fact you kill, their chieftan... In halo 2... Also Bungie said they're at liberty to lie to us so "bungie's word is law" for th emost part yes, but like the other guy said, it doesn't make it true.

It's not a new theory, there is no such thing on this board. Trust me, we are so messed up we have considered every friggin' theory that can be considered.

If you had to choose between following roders and going to salvation or face off a lone enemy, which would you choose? I'd choose salvation.
