So at the end of the campaign MC is aboard the UNSC Infinity, and during the Spartan Ops episodes Dr. Halsey is also aboard the Infinity. So how come in the episodes we never see chief and Dr. Halsey interacting.
I mean he has to know she is aboard the ship, and I’m sure he would have gone and seen her by now. After all they have a lot of history together and I’m sure MC will want to tell Dr. Halsey about Cortana and all that.
I’m just saying I think it would be really cool that sometime in the future during some of the Spartan Ops Videos we can see Master Chief and Dr. Halsey conversing with each other.
If you haven’t read the books I would highly recommend it, but here is a general reason why:
After the events of Trevelyn, Dr. Halsey was arrested and is thought to be dead by the outside world. That, combined with the fact that Infinity is a huge ship, makes it easy for Del Rio and Lasky to hide her from Chief.

spartan ops takes place 6 month after the single player, we have no idea if Chief is even still on the Infinity. The fact he took hes armor off at the end of the game makes me think he has taking a break.

well where else would he go? fiji? And even if he did take his armour off he can still go see Halsey, not like he can’t walk without his armour on lol.
Spartan Ops is 6 months after Halo 4. A lot has happened, and there’s no guarantee that John is still on the Infinity. And as Twomey1993 pointed out, the Infinity is huge. Its easy enough to hide a person aboard

True, the ship is huge, but why would they “hide” Dr. Halsey from chief? Do they fear they are going to run away off into the sunset together?
Good point, if anyone here has played Metal Gear Solid 2, seeing snake in the campagin as a NPC was AWESOME. Would be cool to see MC at least for a short cameo for one episode, maybe sniping as support for us or something like that

Officially, Dr. Halsey is dead. Only select members of ONI and the UNSC know she’s alive.
I honestly hope the chief can do something about halsey’s freedom. I am hating the way 343i have displayed her and palmer’s ungrateful stupid attitude.
I cannot wait for Spartan Ops Season 2 either, what with SPOILER ALERT Halsey working with Jul M’Dama against the UNSC and not seeing Chiefy and Cortana in a while…
In the final cutscene in the campaign, Infinity is back at Earth. That’s probably where Master Chief is. Halsey arrives on Infinity six months later after it returns to Requiem.
Future SPARTAN Ops episodes might be about who should be the SPARTAN Commander: Master Chief or Sara Palmer.
Halo 5 will be the continuation of the Master Chief/Cortana saga, as well as what will happen now that we know the location of all Forerunner stuff, and so does The Didact’s Hand.

This right here bugs me more than anything as to what the community tends to assume: 343i NEVER changed Halsey. She has been portrayed this way since Nylund’s books; Halsey has always had moral ambiguity and infamy surrounding her very existence. She has always been this way and is more interested in theories and ideas than her own humanity. In fact, her very exploration of her humanity is based on theories and ideas. Halsey is not and never has been a “nice lady” who deserved sympathy.
It’s just that, now that the war’s over, you’re able to quite openly reflect on her sour ways.

Can you point to me an example in the Nylund-era of Halo books that Halsey would’ve considered waving a pistol around and destroying ANYTHING Forerunner would be a good and logical idea like she did in Glasslands?

That was mostly the writer’s fault.
Still, she’s the same from Eric’s books in Halo 4.

343i approved of that writing and the impacts have been lasting. She acts just as irrationally in Halo 4.

She seemed quite fine with burying the Forerunner artifacts underneath Reach once she got her data out. And “quite fine” in Halsey tongue means “she didn’t sit down in the control room and say ‘over my dead body’.”
Halsey’s desperation and plight has been building up since GoO, First Strike even if we care to go that far back into it. By Glasslands, she’s spent the equivalent of days surrounded by Forerunner technology, and is finally starting to get a better scope of things; perhaps including their destructability.
She /is/ an irrational psycho by the time Halo 4 rolls around. Technology interests her and that’s it. Fixing, deciphering, and otherwise understanding technology interests her and that’s it. Her very thought process is just one big puzzle even on the emotional level. Her mentality has been cracking for the longest time-… am I really the only one who has read Halsey almost continuously and seen this progression of characterization so naturally? X) It’s not like Glasslands just went, “Oop, change in gears!” She’s been making this decline ever since the moment she hijacked Kelly.
