Unknown Forerunner Installation?[edit]
Hang on, this is Halo 4 we're talking about. Shouldn't it be set on Requiem? Or more likely, a simulation of a site on Requiem? Why must be unknown? --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 14:42, 18 February 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
- Oh, wait. I think I see now. But now I'm wondering, what installation, and where? Not that I'm going to get an answer anytime soon. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 14:45, 18 February 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
Some serious issues with this map's setting[edit]
I can't believe it took me this long to think about it, but there are some BIG questions that need answering about this map's setting:
1) How could a world that close to its star bear life? The heat and radiation would be lethal.
2) What would shooting innocuous-looking beams of plasma at this dying star even accomplish?
3) Why do the beams not seriously injure the player if they're supposed to be some kind of ultra-powerful star saver?

- The answer is so simple: it's all a simulation of the UNSC Infinity. --They're coming. They're hungry. (talk) 19:50, 16 December 2013 (EST)
- Dr. Mutran is right. The Spartans are not actually at the location the simulation is based on. However, the beam in the center of the map actually acts as a gravity lift of sorts.--Spartacus Talk • Contribs 12:17, 17 December 2013 (EST)
- But all the simulations depict actual locations, right? I thought they gathered topographical data and whatnot from certain locations and then integrated them into the simulations.--File:PENGUIN4.gif|15px]]FluffyEmoPenguin(ice quack!) 10:10, 18 December 2013 (EST)
- I'm sorry but you have a problem with the Forerunner somehow keeping a world intact despite having it sit near a star, which it is also preventing from supernova? Remember when they built a 2 au wide dyson sphere with a full sized artificial star at its core? Remember when Requiem dropped into its sun and didn't melt until well after it entered the Star. They're Forerunner, suspending the death of a star was a very expensive tuesday for them. I direct you to this thread if you want to make some sense of their feats. http://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/forerunner-feat-thread.236388/ - ProphetofTruth (talk) 10:24, 18 December 2013 (EST)
