How I feel Halo 5 will be along the lines. The emptiness without Cortana During the last fleeting moments with Cortana who sacrificed herself to protect John from the nuclear explosion, he came to realize he developed feelings for her. Even though she is a A.I. and he is a super soldier, basically a human, he isn't immune to feelings. It is these feelings that will cause him to refuse any other A.I. to replace her, letting his emotions decide his actions, which makes him less than combat ready for any missions. Bursts of Information Fleeting familiar data bursts randomly are picked up by infinity and her crew all over the galaxy, much like Promethean Knights from before, but the data bursts are much different than before analysis which leads to the assumption of new tech is activating. UNSC then orders Infinite to investigate the source of these data bursts, which leads to the discovery of new types of promethean enemies that been activating, leading to new type of threats. He isn't alone in investigating the new types of threats, where he runs into his old ex-nemesis and greatest ally, the arbiter who is currently leading his species. Together they venture deep inside the planet, where John discovers that Didact wasn't the only promethean to harbor hatred towards humanity. This new face has the backing of an breakaway faction of Prometheans who are raising an army to destroy humanity. John and Arbiter must escape once the faction notice them here, quickly they flee through the caverns towards their respective ships. Arbiter orders majority of his fleet to stall the impending invasion of Earth as Infinity, her crew, and arbiter make a bee-line towards Earth. Once Home, Now Gone Arbiter's fleet did little to stop the invading force of Prometheans. They quickly catch up to infinity and surround her in orbit above Earth. Outgun and outman, Infinity is toren to shreds and crash lands into the Desert, creating massive crater which is quickly surrounded by Prometheans. Jumping to action, John and Arbiter safely escort remaining UNSC personal and VIPs to safety as they fight their way through the battlefield. Symbolic stand, Arbiter decides to stay with the remaining UNSC forces and elites to battle against this threat. After escaping, they soon realize that Earth is being scored clean, whole cities and civilizations being wiped out by orbiting Promethean ships. Earth is now completely stripped away, leaving only global desert and crystallized alien landscape. Johns manages to hold out, they manage to avoid being reduced to dust and found safe heaven. The remaining UNSC forces and humans go into hide, so does John, relying on his armor to defend the remaining pockets of resistance. Years pass as they repeat hide and run tactics, trying to weaken the enemy that seems to have no end in sight. This goes on until he gets help from a familiar source, an familiar voice he once thought was gone. This voice tells him he must search for her, for she holds the key to stopping the Promethean's Revenge against humans... Now this is a dark storyline fit for the second chapter of desperation and hope.

Must Know Take down the Watchers as fast as you can, because they can revive any fallen knights or build those nasty turrets. It is also better to make sure to eliminate all the crawlers before engaging the knights, because they tear through your shields when you don't pay attention to them. When engaging a knight, strafe them and get behind them when firing, they have the same melee pattern much like hunters who are very powerful. Here is a few ways I figured out how to destroy those Knights, picked up along the way of experimenting in Halo 4 Campaign. These are some of the fastest ways and best ways to kill them, compared to regular ways I came across. 1.) Take down shields and get up close with shotgun (Up close and Personal) 2.) Carry Turret and use it against them when available, this drains their shields fast and kills them in matter of seconds (Heavy Suppression Fire) 3.) Take down shields and shot them in exposed areas (Long Range) 4.) Use incinerator cannon against them (Fastest Way) 5.) Assassinate them (Leaves you exposed to other fire) 6.) Use Vehicles when available (Be cautious about vehicle damage) 7.) Use Assault Rifle (This tears up them up for some reason) 8.) Use Railgun to take down shields, then one shot in head (Great for stunning them) Note: If you found another way to take the knights down easily, please post about it. I am interested in learning a few new techniques that will aid me and others when it comes to dealing with these knights or commanders we have to deal with in campaign or spartan ops.

I think in Halo 5, Cortana will not be part of the storyline, but more of a sublime hints of her still being alive. Master Chief will have to fight the Storm Covenant and Forerunners alone for the time being or with the help of Arbitor returning to stave off the storm covenant forces. I have a feeling that Halsey will be trying to salvage Cortana from the Forerunner Artifact, since it seems to be where all the data goes after it is digitized by the composer or the forerunner weapons. Cortana is most definitly coming back, probably in a form of human in Halo 6. I doubt she will be able to return to her A.I. state after the events that happen. Since Halo 5 is going to be extremely dark compared to Halo 4, I have a feeling there is going to be lots of deaths on all three sides of this war. Lots of your friends, allies, people you come to trust will die in the course of events in Halo 5. This will be the war that will break Master Chief mentality and moral.

My Praise for Certain Halo Universe Vehicles I really love infinity's design in Halo 4, it is massive and the fact it launches frigates instead of fighters is so badass and unique in design of space ships that it pushes the boundaries of epic prepositions. Not only does it has a sense of awe inspiring in Halo Universe that we come to love, it is the peak of humanities strength
