The video starts at 14:38.

 

So, in that video we can see a couple of new scenes from the upcoming film.

 

What is relatively new and apparently, never seen before in a Halo, is what we can see at 16:03. Now, what the hell is that? It looks flood-ish but isn't the flood we know. It looks like a genetically improved/modified parasite, or it's simply the movie adaptation of the little spores we fought in the game. If this isn't the case and it's something...

 

Oh. Wait a second.

So it might be related to the ship we've seen crashed on the Halo surface in CEA's terminals.

A new form of parasite? Precursors?

I'm actually quite excited for this, knowing Scott's team is making it.

 

Any thoughts?

Reminds me of Liches. I just can't see Lich people though.  :huh: But for all we know that seen could be a dream/illusion. Maybe caused by encountering the flood or some object.


I learn from the past, enjoy the present and look forward to the future.

No guys, that's just the ship from the terminal. Have you seen the video?

I just watched the video. That thing reminded me of Liches as in the thing that sucks your blood. As i said about the illusion you never know.

Oh I misunderstood, I thought you meant "Liches" referring to the image of the ship I posted.

 

 

It might be an illusion, although Xbox: The Official Magazine reported that " Halo: Nightfall trailer offers glimpse of new foe[...]"

I really want to know is what the flying testicles is that thing that looked like a guy and then truned into something that looked like a swarm of rats.

Maybe it could be a virus like in Prometheus where the bald albino at the start turned into dust/mush.

New official trailer:

 

So, apparently, it's a "new compound" that actually "kills only humans and nothing else", developed by the Covenant.

 

By which one of them, the old or the Storm, who knows.

But more importantly: how? Since without Huragoks they had to basically return to the stone age.

Well The Storm is likely. They porbs got it from some forerunner cache or some shit. I really don't care as long as its something awesome looking with a good backstory.

Well the only elites in the video are storm elites, so I would think its the Storm. Man, an ex-spartan? Is he an ex-Spartan II? Because I thought there was only four of them left.

Prophets be back? What with their engineers they most likely have. Who knows, I mean the storm elites would probably follow them.

Yeah but they weren't considered Spartans. He can't be a Spartan III because they're all dead so hourly he's an s4 washout.

What happened to the rest of Gamma, last I heard they had been shipped off of Onyx.

Same question here, but I think you meant team Saber of Gamma Company (Team Gamma was a S-II group killed during First Strike).

 

"Shortly after their escape from Trevelyan, Ash, Olivia and Mark were killed in action." It looks like 343i cares so much about the lore they declared them dead with that "awesome" thing that was the Catalog on Waypoint's forums.

No, most of Gamma Company wasn't on Onyx. Did they go on a suicide mission during Trevalyen?
