    nope.. im trying to find where i saw it... but smewhere i saw it said 3 years after the events of halo 2....

     

    ill find it... 

    srry dude i don't wanna fight but you are wrong. it takes place two weeks after halo2,because it to the forerunner ship 2 weeks to reach each. that's because high charity was in a different galaxy or sumthing like that.

    2 weeks = too long for forerunner tech. it takes around 4 days or so with human slipspace drives to reach an outer colony, so it'd take hours for forerunner tech

    High charity certainly wasn't in another galaxy too.

    no two weeks,look it up for yourselve. and no not really,just because the forerunner's wher that advanced doesn't mean they could do that.

    velo u pushed this back a page....

     

    who knows... all i know is that halo 3 is nearly 3 years after halo 2.... which makes sence because of all the new weapons the brutes and stuff....

     

    the reason hmans are still alive is because of the ARK... and the fact that the elites are now helping the humans protect earth... i assume that means that elite ships are protecting earth also....

    Read first strike.

    The crystal they found [which was forerunner tech] was able to fold slipspace even further ontop of it's self, making slipspace extremely fast. IE, 48 hours from alpha halo to erandius (we hadn't discovered the system alpha halo was in and neither had the covenant, so presumably it's pretty far off)

    Also, think about it logicaly, if it takes two weeks for a vastly superior race, it'd take around a month for the UNSC, it's very unlikely it took a month for the In Amber Clad to get to delta halo.

    Re: What happened to the old scarab in Halo 2?

    Halo 3 starts like 2-3 weeks after the end of Halo 2. The Marvel comics were made to show what happened in the time period. Think about it, would it really take the Covenant 3 years to find and then decide to activate the Ark?

    And Velo is right it wouldn't take a long time for the Forrunner ship to travel from High Clarity to Earth. I would say less then a day maybe even less then 10 hours. Since it didn't take In Amber Clad that long to get to Delta Halo and it was caught in the Covies Slipspace jump. Which is just a little bit weaker then the Forrunner Tech.

       actually if you listen to the bungie podcasts you'd know that that was a mis statement from bungie. they meant that in the sense tat halo 2 and 3 are, in the real world, 3 years apart.

    Re: What happened to the old scarab in Halo 2?

    Velo:

    There's very likely to be different models and scales for scarabs

    In first strike it mentions spider diggers (or something) but they were blown up by a single wraith shot to each

    Also, the new scarab is alot more combat orientated, the scarabs in halo 2 were more or less purpose built mining machines, because the covenant didn't expect a fight when they came to earth

    The one in halo 3 has a secondary main turret, which points towards it being built for combat

     I think you've got it, personally.

    Re: What happened to the old scarab in Halo 2?

    well the Halo 2 scarab has a secondary turret also... the needler type thing.... ( i wish there was a shoulder mounted "super needler" that grunts carried that fired a large needler shot... that exploded in mid air... and then sent several normal needle bolts out in all directions..... (i think there was somethiing like that in the book?

    Nothing I recall, but in fairness I did read the books a good while back, so I could be really sketchy on details like that.

    scarabs are a mass produced mobile superwepon.... more than one and this is the older model
