Subject: Forward Unto Dawn Episode 4

"Where ere thou hast been, here or in yon world manifest? Canst thou tell what is, or what was, or what is to come? No thing shall last. Yet there are some things that will never change. History is written in blood, yet are battles really lost on the battlefield? Canst thou tell me where thou comest, and where thou goest, and what is, or what was, or what will be? For everything remains, AS IT NEVER WAS."

This is the earliest of the Covenant armor that we've seen, with the next "update" coming five years later with Halo Wars. We know that the Storm is using old, outdated Covenant technology for much of their armory.

Nothing conflicts.

It became really corny when masterchief came into the picture, i lol'd a little bit. Now i know though why no director has decided to make a halo movie


I agree lol

"Chief out"
"Call me Master Chief"

Was still pretty kick ass though. Btw, is he wearing the same MJOLNIR MARK IV armour as the one in The Package? In an earler episode it shows Fred wearing MJOLNIR MARK V[B] but John only gets the unshielded MARK IV variant?

What I don't like is 343 putting "their" Elites in this time period of the lore. The Spec Ops Elites look like the ones from the Storn rather than the ones from the Covenant. I think it goes against what the Covenant really should look like.

While it had great effects, I just don't like how instead of having "regular" Covenant armour, 343 swapped in their "Storm" armour as if the Covenant had used that all along.


And actually, what's even worse is 343 effed up their ranking system for Elites. Those spec ops Elites are labeled as commanders in Halo 4, the head cheeses.
No. No, no, NO, NO, NO. NO! NO! NO!.

WTF!

I don't like it, and I don't see why the Elites in the Storm would change their ranking system like that.


Oh yes. And the Elite with a big ol' crest, is just a major, one of the red ones. I spotted him in one of the earlier spartan ops videos then did a double take when he was listed as a major because he looks almost exactly like a Reach Zealot.

Yeah, I know it hurts, I hate the Elite ranking system post Reach too.

So when and where does this take place? I thought most of humanity knew about the Covenant after Harvest.

you mean the one who told the marine who her mother was in the third episode? if so me toi.

Despite Steve Downs voicing chief; he talked to much, and when he did, it sounded reeeeeaaallly corny. Like really. i really wouldn't expect Chief to say anything much like he did in that episode.
Excluding that, I'm really liking this thing. I'm also glad it's not really canon.

Steve Downes wasn't voicing the young John-117 that we see.

And yes, this is canonical.

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Downes wasn't voicing Chief and what makes it "not really canon"?

It is definatly canon.

it was awesome but I think they might have made the ODST to weak. (just my opinion) IF you want more halo content then check out Bravo. He keeps me up to date on halo 4 faster than a lot of the other channels. Check out his vids and Sub!
