deus_ex_machina Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 In the final terminal in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, 343 Guilty Spark says, "And without the Librarian around to temper HIS rage, well, these reclaimers might almost prefer The Flood." A video of the final terminal can be found . At the end of the video, we are presented with this image: Interestingly enough, this is the symbol of The Didact: For those that don't know, the Didact is the head of the Forerunner military. Here's some in-depth info. 343 has previously stated that the terminals in Halo: CE Anniversary tie in directly to Halo 4. This is absolute confirmation that the Didact, and likely more Forerunners, will be in Halo 4 and, more than likely, they will be the main enemy.

BigMartin58 Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 i thought we already knew we were fighting the forerunners? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drizzy_Dan Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I'd say we're definitely seeing the Forerunners but I would not say it's safe to assume we're fighting them. No it's been confirmed we're fighting indigenous species of Requiem, the world we land in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's been confirmed we're fighting indigenous species of Requiem, the world we land in. But why would 343 Guilty Spark say that the reclaimers (Humans) would almost prefer The Flood unless the Didact, and by association the Forerunners, would be hostile toward Humans? The Precursors created the Human race to fight Forerunners, for ****'s sake.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Precursors created the Human race to fight Forerunners, for ****'s sake.! That's incorrect actually deus, the Forerunners created the Humans as slaves. But I think it's possible if we do come in contact with the Didact that he'd be hostile at first, but would not be the main enemy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baby Boo Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 What?? If there are no forerunners, and VERY scarce covenant... Who will we fight?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drizzy_Dan Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 What?? If there are no forerunners, and VERY scarce covenant... Who will we fight?? Oh I'm sure there'll be Forerunners Bullet but I don't think they're the main enemy. They might be hostile at first if we come in contact with them but they're not the ancient, dark threat Chief is set to fight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n0vast0rm Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 This is absolute confirmation Absolute confirmation would be, for instance, a press release from 343i What you posted would better be classified as an assumption, and frankly this makes your topic title misleading.

Minuette Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 TheDidact might not be our enemy, because The old Didact was harsh to humans, but the newest one isn't (Bornstellar) and the one with the rage was I think it might be The master builder, unless the new Didact was fully taken over by the old one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt S-501 Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I hope we get to play against/with the Didect. He was one of my favorite characters in Cryptum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-Runner Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I loved the novels concerning the Forerunners and the Didact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I wonder if there will be an option to play as a Forerunner.... Very unlikely. The campaign is centralized around the Chief. We are learning his story. It's unlikely that we'll play as anyone besides the Chief. And Multiplayer has a story to it, Forerunner presence wouldn't make sense.

DoctorB77 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 I always was about 95% sure that we would be fighting them. I however want to know more about the didacts involvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VivaLebowski Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 It turning out that allot of the Forerunners are really, really bad would be more interesting to me. They've stayed at the fringes of the story being these pseudo-devine, but pretty much good (since they are fighting the flood) guys for too long. It would be interesting if it turns out they started trying to exterminate themselves along with the Flood. And no one lecture me on the book. Please.
