Ok so we see that at the end of Halo 3 that the Forward Unto Dawn (what's left of it) is heading towards a unidentified planet. We have an article about the planet. In the Halo 4 trailer, we see that John is awake and they are now REALLY close to it. The Halo 4 article should list the Unidentified Legendary Planet as the location for the time being.

== Falcon in Halo 4? ==
:Nope not ''Yet'' we don't know for sure if it's the legendary planet [[User:Halofan1234|"A Penny saved is a Penny earned"]]  14:31, 6 June 2011 (EDT)


I don't believe it is a good idea to jump to conclusions so quickly that the Falcon is in Halo 4. Simple concept art does not always portray accurate information. For example, this concept art shows a banshee flying around:
:For all we know the FuD flew straight past the planet and found its way into a space station for the remnants of the Covenant.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 14:34, 6 June 2011 (EDT)


[http://cdn.gamerant.com/wp-content/uploads/Halo-4-Concept-Art-2.jpg]
Ok let's look at it this way. The Foward Unto Dawn is floating towards, what we have labeled it the [[Legendary Planet]] at the end of Halo 3. You're suggesting that by possibly the power of God, that the ship stops floating towards it and heads towards a completely different Forerunner looking planet. [[User:EchostreamFanJosh|EchostreamFanJosh]]


As you can tell, this is not the same banshee as seen in any of the released game play videos of Halo 4. The same goes for the Falcon. We have not seen any game play of it, therefore, it cannot be confirmed, and should not be on Halo 4's vehicle list until confirmed.
:I'm making a point - we have no idea how long it's been since Halo 3. I also don't recall seeing a "Forerunner looking planet" - I saw a beam of light coming out of an object that we see nothing else of.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 14:47, 6 June 2011 (EDT)

The Falcon is definitely not in the interactive game guide, But that might simply be because the player doesn't fly them. They might simply be in the background. [[User talk:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] 20:24, 4 November 2012 (EST)

::I might as well add, the UH-144 Falcon, or any Falcon aircraft thereof, is not at all mentioned anywhere in the ''Halo 4'' Prima Official Game Guide. No mention of it anywhere. Just zip, zero, nada. I think we can all safely assume with complete confidence that the Falcon does not make a return. A pity, honestly, that it didn't return. Not even the AV-14 Hornet either!

They couldn't have been gone ''too'' long, since Cortana would be completely rampant (or destroyed in the case of being gone for a very long time). People, sometimes we don't need a slap in the face word from the devs to confirm stuff. Halo 3 had a cliffhanger ending with them floating toward a Forerunner planet. Then in the new trailer, they end up being sucked in to a very familiar planet with a whole new adventure ahead. That's pretty much saying "yeah, this is the same damned planet".--[[Image:PENGUIN4.gif|15px]]''[[User:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Fluffy</span><span style="color:gray; font-family:Verdana">Emo</span><span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Penguin</span>]]<sup><small>([[User talk:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:gray">ice quack!</span>]])''</small></sup> 15:25, 7 June 2011 (EDT)


== After-credits speech by Didact ==
Not really, Cortana would have probably shut herself down as much as possible (i.e. Human Weakness) to avoid just that.  And about what he said about the unlikeliness that they would find ANOTHER Forerunner planet; who knows how long it's been since we last saw the Chief?  They could have been floating for CENTURIES, so it is not necessarily so improbable that they are at another planet.  Especially considering how large the Forerunner Ecume spread.  Vegerot.


It mentions in this article that the speech that the Didact gives happens following the events of Halo 4, and assumes it is him vowing further action on humanity.  After hearing it a couple of times, I am now convinced that this speech actually is from the Didact speaking to the ecumene counsel regarding is punishments to prehistoric humans in the aftermath of the Forerunner-Human war more than 100,000 years ago.  Evidence includes him citing victory (against prehistoric humans, because surely what happened at the end of Halo 4 was not a victory).  He also uses plural pronouns when referencing Forerunners, and furthermore uses "we" and "our" as if he is talking to other Forerunners, which would be unlikely in 2557. Overall, when taking it from that context, it makes much more sense. The article should be changed to reflect this, and should not make the assumption of saying that the Didact apparently survived based on the fact that he gives this speech. - Extron
*But at the other side, we DON'T know how long John and Cortana were underway when we watch the legendary ending...right? {{Unsigned|Bdgroot-117}}


:It depends. The parts about "I stand before you" does sound like a council or trial, but the part of "We squander eons in the darkness, while they seize our triumphs for their own" sounds like after the Halos' firing. It's hard to be sure.

:Yep, we have no idea how long they've been floating when they approach the planet. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 19:08, 21 June 2011 (EDT)


Though I do admit that line is a bit harder to understand, I would still posit that the majority of the lines make much more sense under the context of the Didact before the events of Halo 4.  There are many more lines that don't make sense if he was speaking after the events of Halo 4 than lines that don't make sense if he was speaking to the ecumene council after the Human-Forerunner war.  For example, in 2557, who would be accusing him of sin? - Extron
== M6G Personal Defense Weapon System ==
:I agree. I was going to make a similar post before seeing yours. I also think that the speech took place some time before the Didact was imprisoned. Since it's not 100% clear though, I think the article should be changed so that it does not make an implication one way or the other.--[[User talk:Olanmills|olanmills]] 03:51, 26 November 2012 (EST)


it does seem very likely but however if you do an analysis of what the didact says during the cutscene on the level forerunner he not only talks to the chief, he also talks to the librarian, well parts of his little speech is directed to her. So what the didact says during the last scene of halo 4 may be before or after the events, we do not know but we can only speculate, we may find out in later forms of media or will have to wait till halo 5 [[User:SPARTAN-225|S225]] 01:03 27th November 2012 (PST)

==The ''Halo 4'' Official Game Guide==
:Halo 3 didn't have an M6G that fired explosive rounds either, which is what the pistol in the trailer seems to do. It's way too early to make the conclusion that a specific gun will appear in the game, especially when all we've seen is a pre-rendered trailer.

Shouldn't we now have a page for the ''Halo 4'' Prima Official Game Guide, since it has already come out in stores? I got my copy at Wal-Mart for 10x4, a limited collector's edition. I did see some regular ''Halo 4'' Prima Official Game Guides for 25. But I assume you all must already know this. So should we now include a new article for the game guide, too? Seeing as I own a copy, I should be the one to write the article, but I'm honestly not sure I'd do a very good job of it. If anyone else also owns it besides myself could write it, then all the better, I suppose. Still, if no one doesn't, or if they do, but don't want to do it, I suppose I'll have to man up and do it myself. Just be forewarned: as I've said, I might not do a very good job. --[[User:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] ([[User talk:Xamikaze330|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|contribs]]) 20:36, 11 November 2012 (EST)Xamikaze330

::It doesn't look like an ordinary pistol to me - more like a miniature grenade launcher. Watching the trailer frame-by-frame, one can see the whole upper part of the weapon flip open when it's reloaded. The "attachment" part seems like it could be the grenade it fires. There's also a small display on the side of the weapon and "rails" where the attachment - or grenade - goes, visible near the end when the Chief stands up. --[[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> 19:17, 6 June 2011 (EDT)


I just added Cairo Station to the Locations list, but i dont have a source. It is mentioned by one of the computers aboard the Infinity during Shutdown. Just go and press "x" on them, i think its the farthest one that will first mention something about information and departure, later something about War Games, and finally will mention Cairo Station.

It's also worth remembering that everything in the trailer is still pre-production - for all we know it was just artistic license [[User talk:SPARTAN-347|SPARTAN-347]] 17:21, 6 June 2011 (EDT)
:Actually, the game has been in production at various levels for three years now as per Producer Ryan Payton, this trailer was using external CGI. {{User:CommanderTony/Sig|June 6th, 2011}}


== The Ships that Pop Up during Midnight ==
For the sake of completeness, we should remember that the M6 Sidearm series does indeed fire high explosive rounds, just not five-inch wide explosive canisters as the unidentified weapon apparently does.  And I agree with Jugus: the weapon in the trailer does not seem to be a traditional pistol; rather it seems to be a cut-down or downsized version of a grenade launcher.  As a side note, I believe it would also be beneficial to treat the "jetpack" as a hitherto unused integrated thruster pack designed for zero-gravity maneuvers in order to preserve equipment continuity.  After all, except for Halo 2, we haven't seen the Mk VI MJOLNIR operate in zero gravity while under adverse conditions; and even in Halo 2, the camera was fairly far away.  I know that there was never any mention of one, but we ''could'' have missed such a thruster pack's exhaust...  ''Possibly''.  For your consideration, --[[User talk:Bruce2401|Bruce2401]] 02:30, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

:Well those two bit that stick out of the back do look like exaust ports, and they've never done anything before, so it could very well be a built-in jet pack, that he hasn't needed to use until now.

:::The 2nd and 3rd pics are the same ships, just taken from a different angle.

It was my understanding that the pack on the back of the MJOLNIR Mark VI Powered Assault armor was the nuclear reactor that powered the assault armor (thus the name ''powered assault armor''). But could it be possible that the reactor could vent a small amount of its energy, therefor "thrusting" itself like a thruster pack?

:^ I was watching the trailer on a 48-inch screen at 1080p, the attatchment that John-117 places on the weapon at the end is actually another round, there was no traditional bullet. That thing looks to be at least two-by-five inches; I think we should treat it as some form of grenade and not a HE bullet.  Vergerot: good point.  If the suit vented some of it's energy by heating an onboard reservoir, NOT the oxygen supply, and then blew it out of those two ports then that would make a very effective T-pack.  But the two vents that extend on on the dorsal side do need to be explained, so I would say the suit ''has'' an integrated thruster and does not merely vent gas to ''behave'' as though it does. --[[User talk:Bruce2401|Bruce2401]] 18:49, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

I think it's safe to say it isn't canon until otherwise confirmed? But I do think it gives some nice stuff to talk about either way. Personally I like that plot very much, finally fighting other humans and possibly a new Alien race neither Covenant, Human, Flood or Forerunner :D.

I think the article would be better presented to readers and editors if we were to move (and add future) Spartan Ops content to the [[Spartan Ops]] article. This would improve the Spartan Ops article by providing more relevant information on the characters, locations, events, and what-not to readers. For this article, we could include something like "For a complete list of features of Spartan Ops, please visit [[Spartan Ops]]" at the beginning and/or end of the Features section. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  21:31, 4 February 2013 (EST)

I'm just asking if it is worth adding a note about chief's armor to certain articles. I understand that artistic liberties have probably been undertaken the trailer depicts an almost new or upgraded suit of armour (changed helmet, chest, gauntlets, legs, jetpack). As some artiles have speculative sections, I'm sure an educated, carefully constructed section in regards to this is necessary pending further information. <font color="black">Something<b>Different</b></font> 19:52, 12 June 2011 (EDT)


== Doritos and Mt. Dew ==
== The rest of the gang. ==
I strongly remember that Kerin Travis was going to be continuing the Master Chief's AND the other SPARTANs' story.  So from the trailer one could arguably assume that that series was scrapped.  But the question is if the basic plot will be transferred.  I honestly hope not, because if these SPARTANs take off their armor every other second I'm gonna have a bf (you got to see White Chicks, funny movie!).  Vegerot.

:If it really isn't backwards compatible with XBox 360 then they'll have to if they want to continue Spartan Ops. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] ([[User talk:SFH|talk]]) 20:02, 21 May 2013 (EDT)
::At present there are no plans for another season of Spartan Ops on the 360. When season 2 does come, it will be in ''Halo 5'', not ''Halo 4''. Because the system won't be backwards compatible, it would essentially require the same effort as porting it to the PC, which would divert manpower away from the next ''Halo'' title, or else require them to use a third-party studio to do the job. The two consoles will also use different versions of Xbox LIVE, meaning online play won't cross platforms. This would effectively split the community as early adopters switch to the new console, while others continue to play on the 360. 343 has already shown they don't like doing this, which is why they chose to use ''Halo: Reach'''s multiplayer for ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary''. So, short answer: No. There has been no information on any ''Halo 4'' re-release, and in my opinion, that's because there won't be one, at least not any time soon.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px|bottom]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty'''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''-'''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112'''</span>]] [[Halopedia:Administrators|<span style="color:red; font-family:Arial">'''''Admin'''''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Rusty-112|<font color="blue">'''comm'''</font>]]</sup> 21:02, 21 May 2013 (EDT)

Has it been confirmed that Spartan Ops won't be coming back on 360? The way I understood it was that Spartan Ops was going to take up the time between the games and the games were going to come out every two years. So if that is accurate there is all the time between now and fall of next year for season two and maybe even a third to come out if second season comes out this fall and season three in the summer then four five and six can fill the gap between Halo 5 and 6.

:[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/03/28/The-Halo-Bulletin-32813.aspx The Halo Bulletin 3.28.2013]: ''"There is no “Season 2” of Spartan Ops scheduled at the moment, but rest assured the story of Crimson, the Infinity and those characters and events is far from over. - Frank"''. They really wrapped things up nicely/wrote themselves into a corner by destroying Requiem, and with it nearly all of the in-game environments. They'd need to start from scratch for a new season, setting up a whole new location for the conflict. Any time they spend on that is time not spent on ''Halo 5'', and they've already got a pretty tight deadline on ''5''. Remember that Bungie had 3 full years between their proper installments (not including ''ODST'', which reused the engine and assets from ''3''). If we're correct, and the next ''Halo'' is scheduled for Q4 2014, that means 343 is being asked to create a whole new game on a whole new console in only 2 years. That's a pretty tall order. That's why I think they pushed out the map packs so quickly. The last ''Halo 3'' map pack was released two years after the game. ''Reach'''s Anniversary pack was 14 months after the game. Yet 343 released all 3 of ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s packs in just 5 months. I believe that's because they immediately started on ''Halo 5''. I'm not saying definitively that there will be no ''Halo 4'' on the Xbox One, or that there will be no second season of Spartan Ops for ''Halo 4''. I'm just saying, "Don't hold your breath."--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px|bottom]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty'''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''-'''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112'''</span>]] [[Halopedia:Administrators|<span style="color:red; font-family:Arial">'''''Admin'''''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Rusty-112|<font color="blue">'''comm'''</font>]]</sup> 22:40, 21 May 2013 (EDT)

==Halo 4 Spartan Rank-Up System==
Hi guys. I'm new at this so forgive me if it seems noobish.
I personally don't think it is MJOLNIR mk.7 ARMOR for the simple reason there isn't any proof that it's made already.
My theory is he (John) uses mk.6 armor until, untill he will get some kind of Forerunner Combat skin.
I base those findings on a couple of reasons:
#  There is concept art for the forerunner combat skin.
#  John expresses how much he would like to wear above mentioned armor in either HALO COMBAT EVOLVED or HALO THE FLOOD.

I'm only worried about the composer. His work on Castlevania is merely decent (I went and looked it up). He only produced and didn't compose anything for MGS. I hope he's actually a good composer, or if not at least he can properly choose which earlier soundtracks to place in Halo 4.

:: Well actually we don't know who the composer is yet because as of now the job title merely states "audio director". But since Marty was also audio director, and most video game audio directors end up being composers (besides, they wouldn't announce the audio director before the composer) it's very likely that the composer for Castlevania will be the composer for Halo 4.

== Line Installation? ==
I'm thinking that the Legendary Planet might be a Line Installation. Looking at the new concept art, the opening sucks in ships and there was wreckage of at least a dozen ships visible on the inside. Also that creepy thing with the red eye at the end could easily have been on of those tenticle things that grabs the survivors to test for Flood immunity/cure. We also know that Anniversary's Terminals will tie in to the Halo 4 story, and Spark make some strange remarks about his previous assignment, and we know that Line Installations have a monitor. This would also be an excuse to have Human allies, weapons, equipment, and vehicles, with them being trapped there and left from the crashed ships. They could also have Covenant enemies, even Elites, as they would probably know nothing of the end of the war, the Brute's takeover, and the Covie Seperatists. It's also possible (though this is complete speculation) that the Spirit Of Fire could have gotten sucked in and those characters could play a part. Given that 343 likes to use stuff from ALL of the Halo universe, and tie stuff together (terminals, Halo 4, the two new books) when Bungie almost never did, this seems quite possible.

:This is probably the best theory I've heard, and if this isn't the story, it would still make a damn good one. However, the fact remains that 343i says that the Chief will be facing a ''new'' enemy. There is nothing new about these enemies. At any rate, since this is speculation, it should be made into a forum, not on the talk page of Halo 4.

== Director's Cut ==
 
The supposed director's cut of the Halo 4 trailer, well, I'm pretty sure it's a w.i.p. trailer made sometime before E3 to give clients an idea of what the finished product would look like. My evidence is as follows:
1. Sound Effects. The Sound effects in the trailer are thrown together from existing sound files. For example, the booster pack used the Halo Reach jetpack sound effects. The over all sound effect work is less than good at best.
2. The music sounds like a stand in score. I'm pretty sure it' stock music, too.
 
Anyway, we should consider that it was not a final trailer, but an early render to give the clients (343i) an idea of what the final product may look like.

:Not to sound like a total suck up, but I had a few tears after reading that depiction.  Well done Specops.  By the by: it is stated by John in the books that every Spartan had zero-gee training but only a few were ever truly comfortable in space. --[[User talk:Bruce2401|Bruce2401]] 04:11, 2 October 2011 (EDT)

== Human and Covenant Weapons ==
 
This got me thinking for awhile. If John and Cortana are stranded on an unknown Forerunner planet out of reach from human and ally Covenant contact, how exactly are weapons going to play out? Will most of the human and Covenant weapons be scrapped and exchanged with Forerunner tech due to the only possible location to find weapons that players would recognize being in the wreckage of the Dawn? I'm surprised that any haven't found too many discussions regarding this. --[[User talk:Radical Edward2|RadicalEdward2]] 14:39, 20 October 2011 (EDT)

::I like the idea that the player would have to scavenge for weapons in the Dawn, until they make contact with friendly forces. If they go the route ODST went, and made an enormous landscape hub world, then you might have to return to the Dawn periodically to resupply between missions, unlocking new parts of the Dawn as Cortana gets around to it. I also like the idea of new weapons - not ''too'' new, of course, since there are some arsenal staples that are simply a must. The Warthog, for example, and the assault rifle. And, of course, anything that has been canonically replaced can still be accessed on the Dawn. We know that Johnson and the Arbiter took samples of the others' weaponry to familiarise themselves with, so older Covenant weapons would plausible be available still. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 18:47, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
 
It is important to remember that we have no idea what this planet ''is'' exactly. We still don't know what the interior of Onyx is like (a pressumably similar place). That's where I think the "ressonant connections" with Halo 4 will be in Glasslands. We're not even entirely sure what the shield worlds were used for. We assume they were used to shield the Forerunners from the Halos, yet none of the Forerunners survived. So what WERE they used for?
 
This is a very rich place for 343i to write a story that allows us to use the old weapons. There is no way to predict what they'll come up with.

there are humans in Halo 4. You can see in the concept art!--[[User talk:Re L|Re L]] 22:59, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
 
 
I'm not sure, it would be interesting to see Forerunner weaponry.  But it would be kinda overpowered, more like REALLY overpowered.  I also don't see how a human and a weak ancilla could operate Forerunner weaponry to its full extent (for example, we see that Forerunner can shape their hard-light weapons mid-shit, Cortana can defiantly not calculate operations that quickly).
