The real question here is what is the MC??? Legacy is being cut off from Reclaimer, and even when he tries to talk he gets scrambled, so it’s likely it’s some sort of advanced AI… or Ferial… Damn you Jim and your storytelling abilities!!!
Oh yeah, and in keeping with moronic internet tradition… FIRST! =P
So… the chief is “friendly” now? Oh and Jim way to copy my armor perms and color for my guy in halo with the Reclaimer. It’s the same thing, I just have security has my right shoulder, and I used to have that torso, but I changed it with the katana. I’m sure you saw me in matchmaking and saw how good I was, then created the super soldier in honor of my amazing skill.
@ linx1398: Yeah, did you know stress causes hallucinations? Maybe the stress of being humanity’s only hope is finally getting to him. Who knows the kind of shit the MC sees in the real Halo universe.
re: linx1398 – What seems to be and what is actually true are often two completely separate things.
re: Rhyan5 – Um, yeah… that’s exactly what I did. Yeah. No, actually, those are my own armor specs (except that I run with dark blue instead of light grey).
re: JimboMonkey1234 – Good luck with that. I think you’ll find it pretty much impossible to decode.
Don’t you love how in a comic you can scramble a message and we understand scrambled message, but what would that have sounded like to Reclaimer? Other than I am not a modified Toaster!
Hmm, I don’t think Jim is that complex, haha, just having a great time seeing us stumble over every new scene from the comic
Dammit Jim, I’m an architect, not a mind reader…...........been reading since the beginning and the twists are making me dizzy.
Love it when we all read too much into a phrase….....of course we wouldn’t be Halo fans if we didn’t.
re: Bearded Phantom – Of course, you have the advantage of knowing me in real life, so you already know a little of the twisted ways of my mind. BTW – that’s a pretty good guess, much closer to what Legacy was actually trying to say than I expected. I didn’t exactly leave a lot there to decode.
re: Chanchu Mohan – That, my friend, is the crux of this whole thing. You don’t think I’d just give that information away, do you? You’ll just have to wait a little while longer to find out what Ferial’s up to.
re: Distefant – See, I love that I can make you guys dizzy with the twists. My favorite kind of plot involves LOTS of twists, turns, and cliffhangers, so that’s the kind of story I tend to write. It’s awesome to me that you all enjoy reading it.
re: Uzi_Master – You can be he’s been up to no good.
Wonder if Ferial is looking to rule the universe or just subvert the forerunner technology for his uses. Kind of a “I don’t want to directly run the universe but would like everyone to know I have the power to destroy it if I feel like it” maybe. I dunno, theorizing on not enough coffee.
yay respawn again!! i’m guessing he is going to get harder to kill every time…and he is a test from the cavalcade member that is there!!
o and jim i love the shot in the first blok!! it makes the base look awesome great job
Oooo. Is the MC a what-ya-ma-call-it thingy/person that would only let the person through if they believed that they would be worthy enough to fight their master? I’m guessing that the MC is training RC to be a better adversary for who ever is controlling him. So like in comic 65 Subject has entered field of play. Begin… it’s like an arena and only the strongest would be able to challenge the head honcho. At a guess.
Damn, the Chief looks just like my character. Not because I have no armour unlocked, mind, but I just like that armour, because it reminds me of my days back in Halo 2. I’m a veteren, you see.
But anyway, back to the thing I made this post about. The Chief looks exactly like me, minus the emblem… I should probably change my armour…
re: The Railway Man – Yeah, I think most of us here are Halo 2 vets. I really wish the Chief’s true armor color was a real option. I’m having to work with what’s available to me on this one. :-/
re:the railway man and jim-I didnt really play much of halo 2 after about the 2nd year of release.I couldnt really get an xboxlive account,and customs can only go so far.
That's good stuff, Jim. It's like the MC doesn't exist, yet he does, and the AI companion is being cut off, and all in all, the Reclaimer is SCREWED…Or…Maybe not…
Jim,
Can you talk to my wife too? With our second kiddo on the way she just doesn’t have much humor about a game system. I would appreciate an anonymous donor, that would be cool. But back to reality.
One thing I am terribly curious about is the entity that compromised the installation. I have a feeling it may not be Ferial or the Cavalcade but a third unknow party. Maybe the one Ferial is trying to defeat and/or control.
@Distefant
Are you mentioning the AI that was possibly before the Calvacade, the one legacy swears does not exist?! Now that would be a cool plot point!

Trippy…. MC seems to be a figment of his imagination. Reminds me of one of the final scenes in Contact, although less friendly.
SECOND!!!

Can anybody decode that damn message? I don’t have the patience at 2:00 am.
I was trying to do that too JimboMonkey1234…but I am at and can’t focus on it long enough.
Now its gonna bug me all day…Thanks Jim!
re: Sangheilioz – That is a very good question.
re: linx1398 – What seems to be and what is actually true are often two completely separate things.

re: mendicantbias00 – Hey, I aim to please.
Silently do the mysteries of Jim’s mind unfold.

You know i still dont understand, what is ferial’s motive?
Dammit Jim, I’m an architect, not a mind reader…...........been reading since the beginning and the twists are making me dizzy.

Keep writing Jim, it’s great.
Yeah, what is Ferial’s motive? I wonder what he’s been up to while Reclaimer is busy killing figments of his imagination.
re: Shu Sam Chen (HSAR) – Slowly, but surely.
re: Bearded Phantom – Of course, you have the advantage of knowing me in real life, so you already know a little of the twisted ways of my mind.

re: Uzi_Master – You can be he’s been up to no good.
This HAS to be ferial.I know it.but alas, a villain is never late,nor on time,but is there exactly when hes sopposed to….
And mc is So an android!!
Wonder if Ferial is looking to rule the universe or just subvert the forerunner technology for his uses. Kind of a “I don’t want to directly run the universe but would like everyone to know I have the power to destroy it if I feel like it” maybe. I dunno, theorizing on not enough coffee.
Ferial is very obviosly one of those “force bhind everything villain”.He works on the sideline,and is in control of things inderectly
hehe
is he saying something along the lines of "recon im detecting (sensing) more enemies as copied masters?"
or was it just random
yay respawn again!! i’m guessing he is going to get harder to kill every time…and he is a test from the cavalcade member that is there!!
o and jim i love the shot in the first blok!! it makes the base look awesome great job

A MC Hydra-type thing?
Kill it and it gets better?

re: mysterioso2006 –
re: Distefant – Well, the solution, then, is to drink more coffee.
re: mysterioso2006 – That’s more or less accurate at this point.
re: PikminGod – Thanks! It’s really hard to get decent overhead shots due to the invisible walls and ceilings.
re: Spartana – Mmm, kinda sorta, not really.
Don’t worry, though – the reveal on this one isn’t too far away.
re: Larrykan – No, what Legacy was trying to say was definitely a specific phrase, but the garbling – that was random.
re: Shu Sam Chen (HSAR) – Maybe. Maybe not.
re: The Railway Man – Yeah, I think most of us here are Halo 2 vets. I really wish the Chief’s true armor color was a real option. I’m having to work with what’s available to me on this one. :-/

Also: TWENTY-SIXTH!
My computer is 10 years old and couldn’t run Halo 2 if it wanted to (GeForce 420 FTW!), and I didn’t have an Xbox back then.
@TheRailwayMan: I agree. Mjolnir armor looks epic in classic green.
re: mysterioso2006 – Yeah, I love custom games, but I’ve come to really enjoy team matchmaking in Halo 3.
re: Shu Sam Chen (HSAR) – Ah, yes, the lack of Xbox. That would hinder one’s ability to play Halo.
Sad to say but I still don’t have an X-Box, although I am not too shabby on the PC in Halo 1 & 2.
Anyway, I think I agree with Shu Sam Chen, it’s a trial by fire (bad pun). Then from the frying pan to the fire.
If you are referring to the one that Ferial and Choas were talking about in #61 and I believe is the one speaking in #62, then yes.
re: Distefant – Well, my wife bought me my first Xbox, and the I got my 360 from an anonymous donor. Otherwise, I’d probably still not have a 360.
re: Matoro3311 – Oh, I think you’re going to love it when you find out what the MC really is and what the implications of that are.
Jim,
Can you talk to my wife too? With our second kiddo on the way she just doesn’t have much humor about a game system. I would appreciate an anonymous donor, that would be cool. But back to reality.
