they said the covanent/human war will end so we will see a deep description of who they are what they are and maybe what they look like

It would make sense that the Forerunner(s) were ancient humans, or human-like creatures. Covenant society is founded by the prophets on the belief that thier technology is a gift from the ancient gods (Forerunner). Perhaps the prophets actually knew something of their history or even lived together eons past.
Then they see the human race recovering and expanding once again after [they] set off the installations nearly wiping themselves out. To prevent the other species from discovering the tru7h behind everything the worked to acheive, the prophets declared humans and affront to the Forerunner (themselves? oh the irony) and began thier crusade.
Entirely speculation, of course. It will be interesting to see if any of the theories and rumors are remotely accurate.

I really don't understand why all these threads keep popping up. I don't see ANY connection between forerunners and humans.

And then, when 343 Guilty Spark told you that in the thousands and thousands of years since YOU had first asked him "the" question that his answer had no changed... you thought what?

Yes, who knows if he"sees" how a human sees. As a construct he could see thermally or anything like that...

He could just see the "human" through the Mjolnir Armour.

Now, now. That was never implied. There is actually a very slim chance that is correct. No one knows what is going through Mr. Jones' mind when writing these things.

Uh, I read each book at least 3x a piece. I didn't see any kind of relationship between Humans and Forerunners...at all.

When 343 GS called Chief "reclaimer" and said his armor was a class 2, everyone assumes a Human had been there before. NEGATIVE. Had it ever occured to you that maybe the Forerunner use performing-enhancing equipment/suits too? THE FORERUNNER BUILT HALOS ALL OVER THE GALAXY, THEN VANISHED, leaving behind artifacts on many planets. It DOES NOT mean Forerunner are Humans or vice versa.

PS: Maybe Covenant are descendants of Forerunner, not Humans. Elites use combat armor too, just like the Chief. Ever think of that?

how did the chif know all covie and FR symbols an how did he recognize all covanent controls and i know that it wasnt implied im just stating my opinion and also how did a forrunner artifact end up in a once human controlled world when the covanent worlds are hundreds of thousands of light years away

You know I think that 323 GS knew who john was, because you do you guys remember that 323, in the books, scanned john and said he had only like a level 3 armor. Ironic that they would have a level for a foreign armor. But not to Ironic.

Mingya...I have said this hundreds of times to people...

He did NOT "know" the symbols of the Covenant and Forerunner. Remember in Fall of Reach on Cote d Azur? The Spartans neutralized the Hunters transmitting the rock w/ symbols on it to a secret stealth ship in orbit (the one Keyes' Iroquois ran into). They recovered the rock, looked at it, and John thought the symbols looked alot like Egyptian hieroglyphics. The Forerunner symbols and Covenant symbols look very similar to the symbols found on that rock.

It also says in The Flood when Cortana asks the Chief on the level Halo (at the light bridge part) how he knew which button to push, the Chief said "I didn't".

I hope this makes sense to you.

*Agrees with Zero* it only said that he had a strange familiar feeling with the simbols. That doesnt mean anything, or mabye it does, I dont know. Mabye it means that the FR technology made the user feel that way. Mabye it means that the Humans and the FR are connected, it could mean anything.
