Halo ring spotted in Halo 4 & More

I am really trying to get me head around this, how come there is a halo ring in orbit of the Shield World :o

And if you look at it, it seems it’s destroyed? This wasn’t the case at the start.

Last thing, this is my first Waypoint post :)! Happy to join the UNSC !

Yeah, that’s pretty interesting. Maybe we’ll go back on Halo in 5 and 6, maybe?

I seen that last night. It looks like the ring from the Ark.

It’s probably just in there to signify that it is still a true Halo game.

It’s just the Menu of H4 maybe it’s 343i way of saying this is a true Halo game.

Edit:^^ Are you a wizard?/??

the ring looks to be intact not destroyed

I thought of two things when I saw this.

First, the destroyed planet at the center of the Ark from Halo 3.

Then, if you’ve read Primordium, there is a part where the Halo ring that has been taken hostage by Mendicant Bias gets on a collision coarse with a planet… They can’t avoid the collision so they angle the ring so that the planet passes through the ring.

In the book, parts of the ring are destroyed and it rebuilds itself. But i don’t think it said the planet was destroyed. Maybe the gravitational forces ended up destroying the planet and it was moved to the center of the Halo 3 Ark? Or maybe these aren’t at all related.

The ring that did this is thought to be the seventh halo ring that still exists in 2556 or whatever year Halo 4 is in. And the science team in Primordium might be traveling to it. So maybe we will be visiting it in Halo 4.

Maybe the climax of the game will take us back to a Halo. It’s a Halo game after all, Halos will still feature somehow. Even Reach had Forge World on a Halo.

Maybe its the Ring ONI have found? And we’re Halsey is being kept at the end of Glasslands?

Awesome.

Welcome to Waypoint.

Maybe in Spartan Ops you will go to an Halo.

Or it is there for the show.

Remember in one of the CEA terminals when Guilty Spark said that there were origanaly 12 Halo rings? Could it be that that was one of them? because he said that 5 of those twelve were destroyed

that ring dosnt appear to be destroyed or damaged at all

It was mentioned in Primordium that Halo Rings could repair themselves.

what was the name of the planet, ive never read the books but it would have to be a very small planet for it to pass through the ring, im not debating or arguing im just curious.

yeah so does look to be in perfect condition then

I would like there to be a map set on an Installation hopefully 07 or the Greater Ark. But that is very interesting there will be much speculation until the game is released.

Wait just one second. I’ve seen that planet before, in the very beginning Concept art trailer to be precise. Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GNwbvyX4ra4

Could this be the same planet? if so, it obviously has some role in Halo 4 as it has appeared twice now.

yes you’re right it is that panet but i wonder what planet it is, it cant be requiem because it dosnt a shield/cover surrounding it on the outside, in both the concept video and the one the OP is referring to it has a circle/crater like the opening portal on requiem so im confused.

Maybe Chief finds a way off of Requiem with the help of the UNSC Infinity later in the campaign.
