Ranger Intel Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I've completed Halo Reach on Legendary and read The Fall of Reach and I understand that almost all of reach was glassed (ONI's Castle Base wasn't), but is it still out there? Obviously now it's useless to the UNSC, but if they ever wanted to return, could they? Did it completely vanish, or was it just glassed and left in the Epsilon Eridani System? It would be completely out of the story if the brought it back unless there was a reason to. It was a key part of the Halo Universe. I'm not expecting them to bring it back, but if the UNSC wanted it back (possibly to train more Spartans), could they recolonize it? They already train on Spartan-IV's on the UNSC Infinity. Maybe they could use it for more space/power/control or more resources or to dig up artifacts. What do you guys think? Could it be recolonized by the UNSC, and if yes, why?

Reach-Halo Reach.jpg At the end of halo reach there is a unsc ship in the background and the planet seems to have recovered so I would guess the planet was recolonized. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Was this meant to be after it was glassed? I hope so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Make_Big_Boom Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Really? Was this meant to be after it was glassed? I hope so. Yeah the ending scene takes place like in 2580 or something. And from the looks of it, it was Re-Terra-formed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buns Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Yeah the ending scene takes place like in 2580 or something. And from the looks of it, it was Re-Terra-formed. It was. Halsey was giving a speech which has to suggest that SPARTAN OPS SPOILER Halsey lives and rejoins the UNSC(After the Halo 4 Sops ending) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazadure Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 yeah it does get recolonized (hopefully no more boomboom) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC-01/207 Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 I had been wondering about this myself though the "ship" in the background looked more like forerunner tech then a UNSC ship IMO... thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I haven't seen which ship everyone is talking about or I don't remember seeing it, but I'm sure it wouldn't of been a forerunner one. There aren't even that many forerunner ships that have been designed by Bungie and 343. Little is known about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted November 1, 2013 Report Share Posted November 1, 2013 The ship is right after they show you're helmet in the grass if I recall and in the background there is a ship. Since there is grass I'm assuming its been Terra formed and if they needed to I guess they could use it as space to train Spartans. But then again the Covenant is in a civil war and if the Storm Covenant find out about Reach well they still have the coordinates to Reach and could attack it. So chances are they wouldn't use Reach for anything other than a farming planet or a military outpost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the Storm Covenant would have a chance against the UNSC though. Imagine in the last Halo, Reach is attacked again but far worse than in 2552, the UNSC and other enemies that attack Reach have the biggest battle in Human history and at the end Chief has a moment similar to Noble Team's. That would kind of repeat the story again but it would be interesting to think of it and it can be changed to seem less repetitive. What if Reach takes on another big role in Halo?

TDM Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 Well it usually takes 50 years for a planet to recover from a glassing. In the end of reach that was 30 years, Its just about healed. And with the peace with Arbiter and what not, I'm sure they can go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Intel Posted November 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 It's only been 5 years after being glassed in Halo 4. Halo 4 is set in 2557 and Reach is glassed 2552. Does that mean when it showed Reach after it recovered it was showing us many years later, or only a few years later? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
