Subject: Two Things

These two things really buged me and I think they should be solved be for Halo 3. First how did the Flood get on "In Amber Clad". Because your on High Charity and here comes the Flood off of Halo! Next were are all the other spartens at. We don't know if there alive or dead but something would be nice.

1/6/2010- A day that will live on in infamy.

The Man in Black fled across the desert, the Gunslinger followed.

Well,I have a pretty good idea on how it happened but if they could show a flash back of how it happened,thatd be cool I guess.

If you paid the least bit of attention to Halo 2 you would know that answer.

And another thing, there is a HUGE chance that the covenant took the "Keyes flood form" with them before they escaped the ring. (The Arbiter was the commander of the ship and he obviously got away, other wise he wouldn't have been in Halo2) That would completely explain how flood could have migrated to different parts of the galaxy, including the Amber Clad.

Theory to 'How the flood get on the In Amber Clad?' I think that they some how manage to smuggle themselves on a pelican dropship or hjacked a dropship to get on where the infectous forms burst out and get on naval crewmen and/or marines left on board.

Theory to 'Where are the other spartans?' I think bungie just doesnt want to include anymore spartans right now. Bungie would probably say that they died on the athens and malta explosions or died fighting on the ground where they were overruned by Covenant SOBs.

The Arbiter was the commander of the flagship, Ascendant Justice, that the Master Chief took over after Halo blew. He must have escaped so that he could have told the Prophets the news about halo's destruction.

Well I have an idea but I'm not sure if it happend. If the flood were released then got on board "In Amber Clad". When Miranda and Johnson get the Index if they landed "In Amber Clad" on Halo then it would explain alot but it dosn't say they landed it

OR they didnt make it off reach. der. and instead of going back like in the books the mc just went to earth like in halo2.

why is this so hard for ppl to understand?

GM orchestrated the whole thing. He "used" chief; IAC (in amber clad) was always his target.

remember that the flood can use technology as good as the host can, so all it needed was the pilot and they were set. from IAC, the flood took pelicans all over the city and infected it.

if bungie expects me to believe that all will be resolved by magically finding GM and blowing up the reactor core like the LAST HALO, i will be thoroughly disappointed.

if MC magically defeats all the covie and prevent the halos from being fired and not letting us see what these rings can actually do.........itll be a huge letdown imo

---> you uhhh, might wanna write that down, bungie :-)
you should have iceman write your story. hey dmbfan, can you make it happen? LoL

but seriously, with the flood, they can virtually do anything. getting a hold of IAC was cake. spreading the parasite is a matter of having the bodies, so taking over the universe is definitly what chief needs to prevent.....even if it means sacrificing the galaxy by activating the halos....*wink wink*

I think his point is that the game does not touch base on this subject. I have read the books, but I still would like to see an explanation in the games.

I have read all the books and I love the Halo storyline. But every one says "read the books". That dosn't say anything. When playing Halo 2 they say nothing about the other Spartens. At the End of First Strike the 5 sparten were all alive. But the Covies hadn't even found Earth yet.

  • 06.23.2006 10:20 AM PDT

Even if in Halo 3 they said all the Sparten are dead or something. That wouldn't be cool but at least we know what happens to them.

  • 06.23.2006 10:22 AM PDT

Hopefully the next book and the grafic novel will tie up some of the lose ends.

MC is "the last of his kind" in the games!! there are no other Spartans in the games!!! they didn't show up in Halo 2 even thogh billions of threads asked for them and they're not going to show up now.

The flood are the flood, how do they do anything? In Amber Clad landed on halo and the flood naturally got inside.

  • 06.23.2006 10:48 AM PDT

We don't necasarly know that "In Amber Clad" landed on Halo.

maybe it did, maybe it didnt. but the flood got it either way. if it DID, then that would be because keyes said they were gonna retrieve the index. after landing, the flood infested 05 quickly found and took it. that is why cortana says MC was his "diversion"

b/c of chief, keyes lands on halo. upon landing on halo, the flood take IAC
