Talk:2558

Is there any confirmation that Escalation actually takes place this year? The summary says it spins out of the events of H4, but that just means it takes place post-H4, not necessarily post-Spartan Ops, or if so, in the same year.--Hawki (talk) 21:10, 19 October 2013 (EDT)

Spirit of fire

Assuming it's 2558, the spirit of fire doesn't seem to drift into a planet to me... just near... and it mentions one infection form when it seems there are two. Erickyboo (talk) 00:34, 19 June 2014 (EDT)

I actually wonder where the "collision course with a planet" thing came from. The planet doesn't seem to be getting any closer in the several panels it's seen in, so if the point was to show the Spirit approaching the planet it wasn't conveyed very well. For all we know the planet could just be one of the ones the ship is drifting by but still safely missing. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 15:34, 9 July 2014 (EDT)

Operation: ACADEMIC?

In the February 10 entry, the Halo 4 LE Infinity Briefing Packet is cited as a source for "Operation: ACADEMIC" being the name of Majestic's and Crimson's artifact retrieval operation. Where exactly in the packet are this operation, and the Feb 10 date, referenced? All I could find was Operation: ALL-SEEING EYE in Palmer's operation note. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 02:39, 19 September 2014 (EDT)

ACADEMIC certainly isn't referenced in the briefing packet, it's not from the game, and it doesn't seem to have come from any promotional material (i.e. websites or trailers) either. I say give it a few more days. If no source turns up the reference should be removed as fanon. --Our vengeance is at hand. (Talk to me.) 14:36, 20 September 2014 (EDT)

I remember in Halo Waypoint forums someone mentioned not all who bought the H4 Limited Edition had the same briefing packet. Mission Briefings. --They're coming. They're hungry. (talk) 15:02, 20 September 2014 (EDT)

Yeah the Mission Briefings included in the LE packet differ for a lot of owners. There's Chatterbox, Three card monte, Landgrab, Academic, and All-Seeing Eye. Lord Susto 15:18, 20 September 2014 (EDT)

Hunt The Truth

In Hunt the Truth only 1 date was mentioned in the following post.
http://huntthetruth.tumblr.com/post/114373750803/the-end-is-only-the-beginning
"Join me next Sunday 3/29 as we dig deeper."
This translated to "March 29" for those unaware.(the only thing to note would be that in 2558 March 29 is not a Sunday, but that can be ignored for the fact that either Benjamin Giraud is on another planet and the days are slightly different and it was to help us understand when the 1st episode was coming out)

This would mean that cause Benjamin made the Primer after the events of Episode 5. Master Chief is already doing his own thing. And the anomaly's in the Galaxy were happening.

Now if we pair this with other existing canon. Petras Appearance makes sense in regards to escalations.
And if we match it up with Halo 5 Blue Team level. Where its 8 months after Halo 4. Would be Sometime in March 2558. But its before he goes AWOL.
So this means Master Chief goes AWOL sometime in March. Then Hunt the Truth Starts.

So would it be acceptable to put Hunt the Truth around the Month of March after the Chief goes AWOL? Or do you lot not agree with my proposition.--CIA391 (talk) 22:31, 20 June 2015 (GMT)
