Cheek them out they look fantastic

[Druss99]

I'm loving the weapon updates, the battle rifle looks awesome. Not sure what the point of having the BR and the DMR is though. I can't wait to see where they go with the story.

Looks like we're actually seeing through his helmet now. About time too.

It would be great if has a major focus of the journey back to Earth, they are lost on some forerunner planet after all

Is it still single shot? I like the helmet view, still unsue about his armour design though.

Why are the Covennant still in? Didn't chief drift off to some unknown planet with just Cortana? Arn't Elites now allies with Humans?

I wish there was a screen of the Forerunners.

^If you cheek the Halo wiki the civil war is still happening even after the events of Halo 3

Well, I know the idea behind the new overall enemy and why the covenent are still there, including the Elites, but that's spoilers and all.

@naughty bear, wrong gun. The DMR is in reach. This is the battle rifle from Halo three. It fires in three round burts and isn't overpowered like the DMR is.

As to Elites yes and no.
Spoilers




Given this game unlike reach is being based on the lore (which led to the former being called semi-canon) the events in the lore, some elites arn't happy with the Arbiters peace deal. Not that they want to go to war with humans so much as be a major power. A civil War is happening, chances are the guys you run into this time or part of the various terrorist groups or covenat remnants. As to being there, some of the senghali are basically trying to capture forerunner artificats and learn a new purpose for themselves.

Funny enough the UNSC may also be in a state of civilwar.

Any chance of the flood being involved? I really want to know how the Forerunners are going to be in the story and this 'new enemy'. Unless the Forerunners are the enemies.

If i am correct, Humanity has quite a bit of history.

[RedArmyShogun]

Yes humanity used to be as strong as the forerunners in fact we stoped the flood even cured it. The forerunners got into a war with us at the same time, so we were much like Germany in WW2. Two fronts. Minus the allies didn't restrict the germans to an island and take away all technology, devolving them. As payback we whiped out all research on our cure.

Now this is speculation but I doubt you will see the flood, but it fits with the lore.

The Forerunners seem to have had back up plans if you play halo CE AE you can see data files that state two plans were on going. Basically the faliure of the Rings would probely unleash the forerunner military from the shield worlds (such as seen in onxy) and activate dormate war factories (as seen in halo wars) and they will carry out the genocide.

But seeing the flood beaten may stop that. On the other hand the military leader of the forerunners, well you kinda just blew up his lovers work that she sacrificed herself for, not too mention this isn't the first time humanity has been a thorn in there side, plus seein'g much of there lands and tech in the hands of crazy fanatics (covies) or in the hands of an acient enemy, I doubt will sit well.

Plus we have the precursors, whom the forerunners may have wiped out in the milkyway, some remnants if not whole civilizations of them may be left as they reached the point of intergallatic travel, and created the flood as a deadmans switch in the first place.

Though I doubt this is the end of the Flood by far, and humanity may have to cure the infestation again.

Seriously? I knew Humanity went to war and got sent back to the stone age but i did not know we were stronger than the Forerunners and cured the infection.

Did we come before them then? Also since we can use Forerunner technology since we are the so called descendants of them, were the Forerunners decendants of  the originals Humans?

Not stronger, equal footting. We were apart, anyways while humans fought the flood, they did push us back, the humans took and made some altered humans that when the flood tried to absorb them it just back fired on them. But we technologically were nearly equal, in fact the forerunners were keeping an eye on us for some time.

From what I gather humanity lost half its worlds and populations to the flood, while we won at the end for most likely resources we invaded forerunner worlds and took them to replace ours losses. While fighting on two fronts was costly the flood were pushed back into the outer edge, but well, when you put two sides together in conflict, one is batterd, bloody, rebuilding, versus one who is freash and slightly better in tech the outcome is assured. As part of the peace we were stripped of all technology, our historical documents erased and thrown on our world. Funny enough another reason humanity lost was because of its partner race selling out.

The Prophates. They were a major trading and industrial partner of ours. But the Forerunners weren't so forgiving, and agreed not to wipe them out like they did us if they did not progress technologically past a peek and erased all of there history of the universe outside of the control of two or three worlds.

With humans out of the way the flood came back, and the rest is history.

That I'm not sure of, I think humans were chosen to carry the mantle so to speak, we were judged most worthy to carry the torch. But it is possible we both were created by the Precursors and may be genetically related. So we might not be related at all in terms of lore, but were deemed during the arc project to be the most worthy of the races saved to carry the mantle. Or we might be related some work hints at that. Who knows.

Rampancy

In Halo, all AIs eventually go "rampant," and become unstable and uncontrollable. The Monitor you encounter in the first game, Guilty Spark, has become rampant, and basically exists in a state of senile dementia and monomania. He's lived much, much longer than Cortana has, but he was also created with more advanced technology.

Cortana, on the other hand, had a rated lifespan of seven years, and has been operating outside the parameters indicated in the manual. Speculation that she's slipped her gears is pretty well-founded. Although rampancy may not be as bad as folks assume, she's been very polite so far. (And I personally wonder whether interacting with more complex Forerunner data structures might not offer her a way out of the inevitable degeneration that was endemic to her program.)

Maybe I haven't been reading the right things (it's entirely possible, I only played the first three games, really), but it was always my impression that the Forerunners are what humans used to be. Hence Master Chief being addressed as "Reclaimer" by the Monitors, and being able to activate these technologies that the Covenant can't, presumably because of built-in failsafes requiring that a Forerunner be present with the Activation Index.

Thats what i believe.

[Sajji]

They should put in a loot system, NPCs, an inventory and levelling system

[Naughty Bear]

And at the same time make it a turn based strategy game along with a party system. Oh and a morality system.

[Sajji]

I wasnt being sarcastic...I'm giving ideas to make it better. You know, like Halo fans did for Mass Effect, except reverse. My idea is good

[Sajji]

I've been on 343 studio forums and a mod said a loot system was being implemented. Hope it isn't too shallow.

I thought i was being too obvious.

And seriously, a loot system? What would that be for? It's a first person shooter, not a rpg.
