Re: Halo Wars Q and A interview

In Response To: Re: Halo Wars Q and A interview (Baz)

: Erm... It's not that they haven't read the books properly, you haven't.

What are you talking about? I've read all three novels multiple times! In the writeup, they said "Also, for the people who read all the novels we need to make sure that they don’t have to forget about something they experienced in the Halo universe because we haven’t checked it out properly." That implies that they DON'T have anyone who has read them, or read them enough to keep that canon straight in the game.

: Watch the trailer again please. Count the spartans. Seriously. Count the huge
: amount of spartans in the trailer. Keeping in mind the spartans are the
: green ones.

Wow, thanks for that. Sure, there may only be a few in the trailer, but I think the fact that they showed more than one implies that there's many across whatever planet they're on, and these few just happened to be in the area.

: Also, I would hazard a guess that given the sheer amount of humans on that
: planet means that this is after the first encounter and they are fighting
: to save this planet. The Elites are only rumoured to exist, and while they
: uncloak to look cool in that trailer who say's they stay uncloaked when
: the humans rock up in the warthog?

Maybe, maybe not. If they were aware of the Covies, why would 2 lone Marines venture into a forerunner structure alone? Why not send the Spartans if they knew danger was involved?

:I bet that's not even supposed to be
: John either :P

Agreed. That wouldn't really make any sense if it was. And not that it's really that much "proof," but that doesn't sound anything like Steve Downes.

: Alot of people are debating the possibility of the other parts of halo as not
: being canon and yet there isn't actually much about any of them that
: actually conflict. Infact each of the seperate parts seem to tell a
: different perspective of the same storyline. ILB was earth and it fit with
: the mention of the book that earth was blissfully ignorant of how bad the
: covenant was kicking human ass.

Yeah, but ILB implies the Covenant knew where Earth's position was, and were planning a full scale attack, even though in Halo 2, it seems more like a lucky mistake.
