Or what if halos were large rings floating in space and not planets (like earth). And What if people can actually make *gasp* INFERENCES. End of Halo 2: "Where is this ark?" Then it shows Master Chief arriving at earth. Serisouly...don't you think that was a coincidence? So the ark is on earth. Earth isn't a ring, since, when all of the rings are shown (all 7) in one of the games (i forget which), they are shown as seperate, same sized, floating in space rings.

Well perhaps. I think the major point is that nothing is certain. Whos to say that there isnt a ring under that damn surface. Just cause all the halos are 10,000 kilometers doesnt mean a possible halo we didnt know about cant be 12,000. Also the equator does run under the ocean yes...at some points. remember...the ring itself is quite wide as well. The central axis may be under the water but due to its width part of it could very well lie under africa. But whos to say right? All I know is that whatever it is will probably be cool as hell.

I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.

I have been gone from the Halo 3 forum so could someone fill me in ont his engine theory.

this why i dont believe a halo lines the earth's equator:

its rather simple actually, and it something that some punk cant say " you are wrong iceman you n_ _b!!11 " b/c what im about to is RIGHT and common sense

here is why a halo cant line the equator:

Now i want you all to picture the ark in the trailor (or halo, for those who still believe that, but dont worry, this will prove there's no halo under there) do you have the picture? good. now visualize a map. see the equator? good. now picture a halo lining it, like some of you believe- "zomg, i see it, i see theres a halo right under the equator!!11!!one one cos(0)" hold on there little timmy. you have your visualization right? now look at where the eqauator lies...."umm, iceman, it runs along the OCEAN. " very good timmy, thats exactly right. what you say is that a halo lines the equator. well, look at the ocean. YOU ARENT GONNA TELL ME NO ONE NOTICED THAT. the depth is not that deep that someone fishing is gonna be like "hmmmm.......whats that giant black circle in the water...........oh well.....ooooo a lobster!!"

think about it ppl: if a halo lined the equator like you all say, we would SURELY see it in the ocean. no one can disagree. and henceforth, ANYONE WHO DOES needs to attend: ICEMAN's school for the geologically challenged.

LoL, im just having fun with you guys. but really, this kinda disproves the whole halo under earth thing. the simple fact that it would line the ocean as well, and we as humans are........pretty sure about whats in our oceans, especially something that big

therefore halo= not on earth


omg shut up you're so annoying in all of your threads you never say anything reasonable, WHY WOULD WE SEE THE HALO UNDER THE EQUATOR, YOU CAN'T LOOK INSIDE idiot at least think before you say all this random crap; also in all of your threads you point out the most obvious things imaginable

not a flame, just a statement

it doesn't just "fire" when it's dug up... it's been dug up since halo 2 cuz of the prophet's slipspace jump.. if you've read the faq then you know the trailer takes place 1/3 of the way through the game.

Why would they bury it underground? Wasnt the whole purpose of the halo rings to contain the flood?

Well in a very simple paragraph Earth may not be a halo ring. Why you might ask this, Well at the end of halo 2 when keyes and all those guys are talking it shows you all the rings in standbye mode, one has a red writing flashing meaning that ring is damaged and is no longer able to fire but you see all other rings in a ring format not a sphere like the Earth.


Wow, you can read that writing from teh Forerunners? Can you tell us what all the other markings say?

Well the engine idea is that is not the ark and they have found out that Earth is a forerunner homeworld or battle station like a death star :P but like the holy city thats half of the coverant homeworld but was destroyed in the war so they build a station out of it maybe they got the idea off the forerunners because earth might be the same. hmmm
