watch the vid, 15 secs into it you will see what I mean. Thats why I dont think the thing they showed in the trailer is the ark. Bungie would not show something like that in a trailer. I think its an energy shield. The thing on the trailer is just a big power generator.


i've always thought that the thing in the trailer is not the ark (just agreeing)

it's as good a theory as any

You idiot, that is a power cell for Halo. There are many of these all around the Halos providing them with power.

It could just be a massive shield generator to protect earth, that would be awesome, lets see how many plasma rifle shots it takes to take it out lol

anybody else ever see the picture from one of the bungie vids where it says "ARK" and it has a picture that is obviously what was in the trailer?

Power cell, power generator, whats the differance? And im not going to flame back, theres no need to to talk to you any more.

If you are saying that it is a power cell for the Ark then that is fine, but it can not be the Ark.

Judging by how Bungie does things id say the ark is something small, not something huge, it would be too easy to guess the ark is an enormous structure, but it would be more likley to be very small like the size of a coin or something.

O......K....
The thing in the trailer is the Ark.
The thing in your video is a power generator.
They are not the same thing, your logic is flawed.

Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts, absolutely.

Maybe the power cells were modeled after the look of the Ark...after all, the Ark is te center for all of the Halos, right? So why not make some aspects of the Halos look like the Ark?

Hmm...

I believe also that that structure in the trailer isn't the ark. Bungie wouldn't give halo 2s secret in a "teaser" trailer.

If it's a sheild generator why arn't the thousands of Covenant in the trailer shooting it, I mean really. That IS the Ark, because that beam is the beam contacting the other instilations. (halos)

I've heard some pretty convincing evidence that the thing in the trailer is <b>NOT</b> the ark...I think rather, the forerunner ship that MC is on at the end of H2 is the ark.

Wel i dont think the ship is the Ark, just because, if it was the Ark, why would they go to Earth in order to activate the Halo's, i think that the ship is the key to the Ark.

One. Its a forunners artifact. They wouldn't want to damage the great piece of forunner technology.

two. They would know its a shield generater b just looking at it!? Holy Blam! There godly ability amaze me!... sarcasm is fun.

three. I bet it will take "HitchHilkers Guide To the Galaxy" big brown boxes amount of bemas to destroy earth. you know? the big things that blew us up? so about 10 thousand. give or take. OMGWTFROFL-COPTERCAKESOFPAIN!!!

actually the ark is tooken from a bitmap in one of the maps in halo 2(cant remember witch one) but if you watch spartan life, episode 2, its the one where he talks to marty and he says "the great bitmap in the sky"

The trailer that is shown might not even be in the game, remember when Bungie played through New Mobassa and said that it was gonna be playable in the game and in the end it never really wasn't. They showed it at E3 and everything, I dont even know why they took it out of the game, looked pretty awsome. So who knows what the trailer represents, could be a teaser that Halo 3 is just around the corner might not have to do anything with the game if you ask me.

What? I think i know what your talking about. But the Ark was nerver in halo2. In any map. Online or off line.



geez you never pay attention, go watch spartan life, in episode 2 where he interviews marty (halos sound guy) the bitmap in the sky, if you look close enough IS in the trailer, you should really pay attention
