HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

This theory is pertaining to the beginning of halo 3. Im sorry if i havent noticed that this theory has been thought of. Enough with my talk then.

You remember Rtas saying in the Great Journey: "Then Im going to take the cruiser back" ? Well, In halo 3, lets say he has. Now there is a way for the arbiter to get off delta halo and get to earth, because he has supposedly learned the location of the ark.

The game could begin with you as the arbiter, on the ship, going through the regular tutorials that the chief did in games 1 and 2 except the elite will guide you through it. This also gives the chief the final battle.

Discuss if you will.

If you have nothing productive to say...dont post.

I always thought the plot was sort of obvious. I mean, they haven't really hidden anything from us...

Doint the tutorial level as the covenant would be odd, not sure if I'd like it.

Personally I don't see it happening.

I can't wait until the day, though... when I'll be asked to look at the top light.

amen
I think that it's a very interesting theory, but I don't beleive that it will happen.

tru.dat

The reasoning given for the training was the new armor systems, the Arbiter armor has been the same for all the Arbiters, and it probably wouldn't change for this one.

Plus, everyone would be pissed if Bungie did that, and Bungie doesn't like angering the fans.

Indeed.

[theory] Anyway, I'm a little behind, but in Ghosts of Onyx, the Arbiter has a ship, along with a whole battlesquad or whatever, so I assume he (and the other covenant, and probably Johnson and Miranda) will use those to get to the prophets/brutes and royally eff them up. [/theory]

it doesnt mean that the arbiter would have new armor. The tut is more like a basic run down of what you can do. Also, the MC so far doesnt seem to have extra stuff, and how can he have a tut lvl when hes on the forerunner ship? Unless they skip the whole sequence -.-

John was given the run-down when he came out of cryo, to reorient, and then when he got new armor, because it was new.

Nobody says there has to be a training guide. Players can set their own damn joysticks. =x

Also, there's no reason to believe Arbiter would start the game. That's just a random guess without any real factual basis.

hmm its actually very possible that they start the game with the arbitor

but that would be very stupid.

Good theroy, Most likely it may happen; however i was hoping to be able to be a grunt or a jakel in mp without modding.. so u could like be a grunt in mm.. that would be so funny..

I'm not even sure Elites will be in MP.

It's only just hitting me, that i'll be playing Halo 3 in ~ 5 days.

Same here. Wow, the days have gone by faster than I expected. I suppose it's because I forgot about the beta

Also incredibly bad and unbalanced. It would be a terrible move for Halo multiplayer. Elites were a bad choice to begin with, I'd be amazed if they can rectify them, let alone add more bipds and still keep it fair.

If you read my post with the theory, it simply states that the arbitor is in the position for the tutorial. Of course, this is without skipping any important master chief on the forerunner ship. Sounds like you're biased towards elites. Bungie.net said they are reworking the elites so that they're balanced with spartans.

It should've been known for a while that elites are not in the beta, because they just aren't ready. Any other races besides spartans or elites in MP is a terrible idea. I agree with you on that.

And Master Chief is on a ship too. He could do the same.

A tut lvl with master chief killin brutes, drones and jackals sounds good to me.

I'll be mad if the Elites are gone. What's wrong with using them? Just make them illegal in MLG. Let us do what we want in multiplayer with our friends!
