In Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn, John-117 tells the survivors of Hastati Squad that they are the only survivors on the planet.[2] As the film is set during the Covenant's initial attack on Circinius IV, the presence of other survivors afterward ostensibly creates a contradiction. However, it can be assumed that Blue Team was operating on limited information at the time, or that the other survivors were only discovered later.
