Forums: Index → General Discussion → Halo: Nightfall (General)

So the Halo panel at Comic-Con is going on right now. This guy is announcing all the Nightfall news on Twitter. According to the Twitter user, people in the series will die off and it will focus on Locke and a elite squad on an abandoned outer colony and a fragment of Installation 04. There is also a new Pelican type, similar to the Tart-Cart. Locke is apparently going to be a playable character in Guardians as well. The series looks promising, but it is unfortunate that it will have about the same budget as Forward Unto Dawn. Still, I have high hopes.

What does everyone else expect from Nightfall? - NightHammer (talk) 15:33, 24 July 2014 (EDT)

Trailer is up at XBox.com. An element that infects people from Alpha Halo...are we going to be seeing the Flood in live action? -- SFH (talk) 16:04, 24 July 2014 (EDT)

It's very likely, but it apparently only infects humans. Still... - NightHammer (talk) 16:15, 24 July 2014 (EDT)

Selectivity has always been one of the Flood's most important traits...

I saw the trailer, and I like it! It certainly has a nice good BSG vibe, and the characters seem well-defined and the story a good way to frame a lead-in feature. Considering both Nightfall and Escalation seem to be leading their characters to Halos, I wonder if that will be where Halo 5 opens, with the Chief saving Locke at the beginning, then shifting to Locke coming for him?

And excited to hear about a new "Condor" dropship - just after Loftus has redone his charts! He must be thrilled :P -- Qura 'Morhek ^{The Autocrat of Morheka} 18:42, 24 July 2014 (EDT)
