| So why, then, does the article say she gave birth to Miranda? I don't remember this in Halsey's journal, but whoever did the edit is citing it. I can't be bothered to page through it again on somebody else's speculation. Burden of proof ain't on me. Page number or direct quote to confirm this? We can't just keep saying "found it in the journal" if we're not going to provide something more concrete. [[User talk:CipherCero|CipherCero]] 05:00, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

| | The only reason that Cortana and Miranda are 'identical' (which I don't believe is true anyway), is because it's a video game, and they have to use the same template for female characters and the same template for male characters. You can see similarities in every character. By your logic, the entire UNSC is related. |

| She did go around kidnapping children for ONI, who knows what else she did while under cover. Obviously she was doing something important enough for the Covenant to find her and track her down. So maybe its a disguise.

| She could have dyed her hair blond, a lot of women do that. And also, time in cryo sleep drastically affects one's age. For instance, Preston Cole is 82 Earth years old, but because of time spent in cryo-sleep, he is about 60 years old.

| I agree with Halo-343. She is probably only sixty ''including'' time spent in cryo-sleep. As for a change in hair color, she could have dyed it. Still, if she appears blonde in other episodes of the anime, I would guess that blonde is her actual hair color, and that black is really her dyed hair color. I don't know how to explain the absence of wrinkles though. Maybe she didn't have them yet. - [[User:Webspidrman]] 17 January 2010 (UTC)

| I think her hair's color should be normally dark: in Halo: the fall of reach is often stated about that, but also it is said that she had some hairs white because of age. If you dye hair, they can't be white because of your age: they are the colour you choose. I think it's absurd to thiunk that nylund tought about hair color returning to original after being dyed.

| :Yes, but as you can see, it doesn't need to be worded like that. To my understanding, "mirroring" implies there is a connection between the two or that Reach somehow follows Legends - which is not the case.

| ::While I sincerely doubt that Halsey's monologue about Noble Team is canon, as she had never even heard of the SPARTAN-IIIs at that point, - the same goes for ''Desperate Measures'': Why would they talk to themselves about SPARTANs/their squadmates when they're on besieged planets, and when could the ViDocs possibly take place? - her image is definitive. The point isn't that the image was made by Bungie. The point is that the image is from a ''game''. Regardless of whether her evaluation of Noble Team actually took place, it's an in-game model that perfectly resembles her description from the novels.

| :::When Halsey's first shown on the ViDoc, she can be seen shutting down the video feed of Noble Team's Falcons lifting off - no doubt a modified/extended version of the cinematic seen in the VGA trailer. This would place Halsey's evaluation at the very beginning of the campaign, with the ViDoc's scenes of Noble Team fighting in the battle of Reach obviously not being a canon part and there just for the sake of presentation. What's interesting is that if Six meeting Noble Team is the very first cinematic in the game (which it seems to be), they still don't know about the Covenant on Reach. Yet Halsey seems to be fully aware of their presence. If the evaluation indeed takes place when Noble's mission begins, she must know more than, well, everyone else. That is, if the evaluation is canon to begin with - we'll just have to wait and see. But yeah, regardless of whether this scene appears in the game or not, her image is definitive. Certainly better than anything from Legends - in fact, it's amazingly accurate.

| Perhaps one should reconsider about the validity of the ViDoc. Has one never assessed that the ViDoc is simply a promotional item, another example being H3: ODST's Desperate Measures ViDoc? Perhaps the scene where Halsey assessed the hologram did happen but not with Noble Team files displayed as seen in the ViDoc? The whole narration is similar like the ones used in Desperate Measures; it never happened in the actual game but it happened only in the ViDoc. In Desperate Measures, we see Buck turning to the audiences and saying his lines but it never happened in the actual game. This might as well be true to the case of Halsey's shutting off the hologram and asking a question towards an unseen character... This leads to only one conclusion: Bungie might as well modified the whole scene to make it a legitimate scene. We've seen this before in Desperate Measures and no doubt in my mind Bungie expected these kind of responses. I don't understand why the majority fails to grasp this ViDoc...- <font face="Century Gothic">[[User:Subtank|<font color="gold"><font color="#FF4F00">5</font>əb<font color="#FF4F00">'7</font>aŋk</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Subtank|<font color="#FF4F00">7alk</font>]])</sup></font> 18:47, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

| :Possible. It's extremely likely that the scene in the ViDoc won't be in the game (we've seen the first cinematic, and in the ViDoc, Halsey's seen shutting the video feed off just as the Falcons take off in that particular cutscene; doesn't seem to happen in the game) There is, however, a possibility that she'll appear in the game, considering she's talking about an item she wants one member of Noble Team to carry (she talks about "hope", which is clearly implied to be a tangible object, perhaps an AI). If Bungie wanted this to be an introductory video only, I doubt they would've included all that dialogue about "hope" and the ending where Halsey lets the AI (Auntie Dot?) choose the Spartan who'll carry it. But we'll just have to wait and see. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 18:57, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

| LISTEN! Catharine Halsey didn't know for a fact about the [[SPARTAN-III Program]] until they were on Onyx! Which means that she couldn't ask Noble Team to do anything because beside for a select few people who knew, the SPARTAN-III Program didn't exist. This is non-cannon just like the new Patrol ViDoc! Unless those military guys were actually one of the SPARTAN-III drill instructors, they wouldn't know.Thank you taking time to listen to my post! 19:33, August 19, 2010 (UTC)!!!!!

| :But you're not saying anything :/ Halsey had her suspicions on Reach. A file called "S-III"; a list of personal S-II information (which would be important were someone to copy the S-II program) and the transfer of a key Spartan-II Program asset (Mendez, who trained them in military strategy and gave philosophical advice such as that you can't save everyone) to an uncharted area of space would make people suspicious. Especially "S-III". I'm sure the SPARTAN-III article pre-dates Halo: Ghosts of Onyx, here. -- [[User talk:Forerunner|Forerunner]] 19:46, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

| :To Vegerot: calm down. We know that. But note that Noble Team is obviously a separate case from the rest of the Spartan-IIIs. For the first thing, they were given unusually high ranks because they tend to ''"operate much more closely with non-augmented personnel than Blue, Red, et al ever did"'', [http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_012910 as stated by Bungie]. Now, if they were top-secret like the rest of the Spartan-IIIs, how would this be possible? It's possible, likely even, that their connection to the Spartan-III program has been covered up; this is also evident by the absence of their company tags. I'm not going to debate whether the ViDoc is canon or not, but it's obvious that NOBLE's existence isn't a secret to anyone. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 19:47, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Besides, regular soldiers have no idea that there's more than one type of SPARTAN. To them, there's no distinction between SPARTAN-IIs, whom everyone recognizes simply with the catchall "SPARTAN" moniker, and Noble Team: they're all supersoldiers with highly advanced powered armor. To the layman, a SPARTAN is a SPARTAN. There's no risk to the secrecy of the S-III program simply because Noble Team's existence is semi-common knowledge. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson]] 19:58, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Sad to say, I have seen the spoilarz on the web, and I've put together the story of the cutscenes and this ViDoc. No, I'm not revealing anything or tempting you to see the spoilers (they've been banned already anyway). But I want to say that this little thread is taking a very strange direction.

|
| |
| ::But first, this <u>has</u> to be clarified. Whatever Halsey was thinking, Dr Halsey definitely knew that they were not Spartan IIs. To further clarify this, Jorge is an S-II. In the ViDoc, she clearly says "it's good to see him home". This seperated Jorge from the rest. Jorge was her creation. Surely she knew the others were not Spartan IIs.

| ::Now's the part where it may become a bit suggestive. I have read Ghosts of Onyx and seen the spoilers. I'm not saying that Halsey is involved in Campaign, but I still do not know whether or how Dr Halsey was aware of the S-III's identities. The spoilers did not have anything to say. Nobody was questioned "Who are you?" or "Who made you?" The S-IIIs just carried out their orders without that topic being brought up. They were also addressed like typical officers.

| The fact that ONI knows about Noble Team does not nessesarily mean that Halsey knows, the SPARTAN-III program was ''made'' by ONI, and in the books she apparently doesn't know about the whole program until near the ending of the Fall of Reach, dispite being part of ONI. However, also for that reason that ONI knows, Halsey might know about the SPARTAN-IIIs, or at least knows that someone tried to replicate a cheaper version of her SPARTANs, but didn't know the full extent. --[[User talk:Juubi no Ryuu|Juubi no Ryuu]] 02:00, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

| == Noble-6's Eulogy ==
| |
|
| |
| Someone has edited the article claiming that Halsey returns to Reach in 2589 to deliver 6's eulogy, and we have absolutely no evidence to support that. And that's also quite a jump considering there's no confirmation on whether she's made it out of onyx yet. (also considering that Halsey would be near 90 years old at that point I find it unlikely)
| |
|
| |
| Yes, Halsey voices the final monologue, but that's no indication that these words were spoken in the same place or time as the game's final images (if we're to assume it was actually spoken outside of the dramatic context). Furthermore, she speaks in very generic terms about the importance of NOBLE's sacrifice having catalyzed the events told in Halo and ultimately mankind's survival and rebuilding, but never speaks in specifics regarding the time frame or location of the epilogue. It's just as likely Bungie meant to use Halsey's voice for dramatic punctuation and not to imply she was physically there -- however there's no evidence to support this either!
| |
|
| |
| I feel the last paragraph should be removed all-together, seeing as it contradicts what we DO (and yet don't) know about the nature of Halsey's whereabouts, and that speculating whether a near-90-year-old Halsey returns to Reach on Bungie Day 2589 holds no relevance towards further understanding the Halo Universe.<br>

| :We can assume that the voice is that belonging to Halsey, according to Haloverse canon, Cortana is rampant by the time Covenant-human war is over. According to Halopedia policy, we have to avoid speculation, thus for lack of a sourceable alternative, Halsey is the only candidate. I do not propose a time or date of the eulogy, only the identity of the speaker. If no argument is made, the removal of the last paragraph will be reverted.

| (Spoilers ahead) Since Halsey gets into the micro-Dyson sphere during the last days of the Human-Covenant war, would a section of her activities inside the sphere be placed under Activities during the Human-Covenant War or in a new Post-War section? Due to the temporal differential(s) between the interior of the sphere and realspace, Halsey assumes the war is still raging (and Humanity is losing) up until she makes contact with Adm. Parangosky and finds the war has ended. Of course, her subsequent arrest and detention fall under Post-War activities, but that's not the issue here.

| That was because the SPARTAN's augmentations were incomplete, and the mortality rate was high. If Halsey had had another decade or so to improve the process and decrease the mortality rate, it would have been a lot more ethical. Also, Halsey changed her mind in First Strike mainly about KIDNAPPING almost one-hundred children. The SPARTAN-IV mortality rate is (presumably) low, and they are consenting adults.

| Palmer's bullet hitted her shoulder, but the Covenants amputated the whole arm ? Why ?

| :Okay, first off, you might want to check your grammar. Secondly, flesh can't heal around an object that is not of the body. It can easily cause an infection that can very easily become lethal. I'm sure you probably already know that. Also, another point to consider, the Sangheili know very little about human physiology, so they didn't want to risk losing her and so they decided to remove her arm in order to save her life. A regular human surgeon would know that the arm can heal itself after the bullet has been safely removed and properly bandaged. A Sangheili wouldn't know that, as they are not surgeons, and they never were. Very few Sangheili doctors exist, or at least I suspect. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmit</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 14:30, 3 June 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

| ::QFT... Getting shot in the shoulder by a simple .50 caliber round would be bad enough. Add, to that, the fact that M225 SAP-HE rounds also have a high-explosive component & the likely result is that her arm would have been blown clean off from the initial hit. The only reason that didn't happen in the cutscene is that the ESRB would have given Spartan Ops an A-O rating for excessive blood & gore.
