Wild [SPEC] on the artifact.

Could this thing be an ancient interstellar homing beacon or emergency flare type device?

It could have been activated in slipspace and caused comms disruptions to shipboard devices and also Earth devices when the Apocalypso crashed into Earth orbit.

The Covenant pick up the signal as a Forerunner fingerprint and head to Earth to investigate.

After activation, the unit broadcasts subspace communications that don't disrupt normal channels.

???
eh. Maybe not. Just wanted to throw it out there.

Actually the crystal from first strike was trackable by the covenant because of the special radiation that flared when entering slipspace. so your theory my be correct that the artifact may be how the Covenant locate earth.

Actually, I was thinking that there's probably another artifact or an underground Forerunner installation (like on Reach) on Earth. Cuz, you gotta have Forerunner underground installation for the sequel game.

I've mentioned it in another couple of threads, but I think either the Covenant invasion will be timed to coincide with the countdown on the artifact, or the Covenant are trying to invade and take the artifact back before the countdown expires. Those are two possibilities I see.. I'm sure there are a dozen possibile situations that could explain either possibility.

Right now, this is seeming just a little too close to Alien vs. Predator for my tastes. But the graphics on the previews kick some major derriere.

well if its suppose to deteriorate completely within about 2 weeks, I think we know when this game will end.

Personally I think it will end the tuesday before Halo 2 comes out (that way the contactme page won't be used for axons) and Halo 2 will come out as a sort of last update on the storyline that tuesday, meaning that the game continues that.

The timelines I've found don't continue far enough after the fall of reach to tell us where we will be when this game ends, so maybe the covies invade at that time...
