Just some questions I either missed in gameplay (or perhaps weren’t answered at all?).
Why/how is chief’s chest piece fixed?
What happened to fire team Majestic?
Janus Key?
What happened to Halsey’s revenge on UNSC from Halo 4 S. Ops?
5.And my biggest question, where did blue team come from?
Thanks
Question 5 answer! 343 said this happens 2-3 years after requiem and halo 4 events! So assuming master chief as reassigned to the infinity he would’ve been reunited with his original team.
But it yes those other questions do leave you hanging!
I wish I had an answer to any of these questions. After going through the campaign, all I have are questions on top of yours.
Why are the covenant still a thing? Why are they still militant? Every leader they’ve had in the last 50 years has lied to them and now there’s a PLETHORA of evidence of that very fact and yet still they are a well organized military trying to light the rings still?
Why doesn’t Halsey have a robot arm by the end of the game? The spartan from Reach had one and that was a long -Yoink- time ago. Halsey’s level of brilliance in the games/novels thus far leads me to believe she could design the thing, build the thing, and surgically attach the thing herself while one-armed.
What has blue team been doing since Halo: CE? Why couldn’t that have been put into a conversation on a level? Why couldn’t I have seen it in a dossier or a cutscene?
I have more but frankly I’m starting to care less and less about the campaigns anymore.

Yep!
I know there are books on halo. Guess we’re all gonna have to study lol
I’ll answer question too first! Halsey has been in covenant control for years and during the game it’s a matter of days haven’t counted yet and there have been more important things that I’m sure she would’ve rather focus on!
now your first question
the covenant by the end of this game is destroyed and is no longer a thing! They wipe them all out! It’s not something they can just say ok your no more they wanted to tie up so ppl aren’t asking what happened to the conevant!

Chief’s Chest piece was most likely fixed aboard the Infinity after Halo 4. Pretty easy to get that one.
Majestic probably is still on Infinity somewhere, but they are not relevant to our story anymore so buh bye. I believe they are in some of the Halo books. A little known fact they were actually thinking of putting Spartan Thorne in as one of the 4 in Osiris.
I refer you to Spartan Ops in Halo 4 and my previous answer. They probably have a couple books about this. 343i probably didn’t see it fruitful to go on with Spartan Ops given the way Halo 5 went.
Halsey’s revenge was nothing but a hoax. She wanted to communicate with John and what seemed expedient at the time was having near free reign to do so hence her line at the end of the campaign:
“Took you long enough.”

The Storm Faction took on the Radical ideas of the Covenant and Jul thought he was the one who was Chosen to find Forerunner artifacts and extinguish anyone who disagreed. As for why they’re still a thing: Not anymore they aren’t, the Arbiter won his Civil War in Halo 5.
She didn’t have a robot arm because she was traveling with a religious zealot named Jul 'Mdama, I honestly doubt he has the technological know-how there. As for when she was rescued, she just worked herself to finding John and was contained on Infinity.
Blue Team has been split up for some time now. There are books that go into Kelly, Fred, and Linda’s story arch that are pretty cool. By the way, I believe in Escalation they talked about that.
Every question you have is probably in a book somewhere. I’m here if you have more questions.
I appreciate you giving us answers, but I’m annoyed I have to ask them. Why would it be so hard to connect some of these dots to the narrative they’re trying to get us to enjoy?
I know
the covenant isn’t a thing AFTER halo 5 but I think it’s poor writing to have them still exist at all. Sure you can say jul picked up where the prophets left off but it’s just poor writing. The prophets were wrong. The oracles said it, the arbiter said it, the flood was destroyed…theres SO MUCH EVIDENCE that they were lying. It’s just lazy.

Wait a minute, why do you believe the alliances still wants to activate the rings? Did I miss this?
They could just hate the human race for destroying what they believed in. The alliance races are pretty religious, especially the elites.
They could wether hate the fact they were wrong or couldn’t let go of events that happened in the past (didn’t the human race actually start the war by firing a shot “by accident”?) OR they don’t believe / don’t know that the prophets were wrong…
I mean, the alliance and human race were in war BEFORE they even found the first halo ring. And the Arbiter being for the human race doesn’t mean the alliance also is.
Also, why wouldn’t the alliance still exist? There are still so many of them and they had a new leader who kept them from shattering. He could have been telling lies and every sheep would follow the shepherd.
That’s what I guess
That was the WHOLE point of the covenant. The forerunners left behind all this stuff but the prophets were telling everyone in the covenant the rings would lead them to salvation. The covenant (to which they still refer to themselves until the end of them) wanted to activate them. The prophets WHOLE goal was to light all the rings. I can only assume, and I have to do a LOT of assuming because this game answers pretty much nothing, that the reason the covenant still existed as the covenant is because they still believed the rings would lead them to salvation. If there’s literally any evidence otherwise I haven’t seen it but would be delighted to know about it.
