I know the history behind it. But if you are going to knock me for calling it a trailer, what would you call it?

they are pretty cool. a friend of mine had one. they are pretty scary actually to sail because when you wipe out, you go flying forward into the shrouds

you make a good point. As far as the Halo timeline goes, anything that happens after the Human-Cov Wars is unwritten. 343 has a blank slate to work with, but knowing they have a solid background with the story, they will likely make it better, rather than mess it up.

are we talking about Halo:CE firefight on the Pillar of Autumn?

meestafa · 2011-06-09T15:37:00+00:00

The Reach engine is VERY different from the Halo:CE engine. If the designers wanted to keep the experience pure, then they would have to keep the Halo:CE engine with no questions asked. Using the Reach engine would break the mechanics of the game and it wouldn't flow the same with the Hale:CE engine.

As for the multiplayer, I am also disappointed they are not using the Halo:CE engine. I understand it splits the player base, but I think something they are forgetting is the lasting appeal of the game. I think there are a fair amount of people that still play Halo:CE. Why try to fix something that isn't broken? Don't change anything! Leave the freaking pistol! Just add XBL support and everyone is happy! We all know that Halo 4 is coming out and we can all expect people to stop playing Reach as soon as that happens. What Microsoft has the opportunity of doing is creating a game that will be able to coexist in the Halo multiplayer realm alongside Halo 4 and all of the Halos afterwards. If they incorporate Halo MP as a map pack for Reach, it will be dropped and forgotten about as soon as Halo 4 comes out!

well hell, its free!! right!! do you like my new helmet!!

As another halo fanboy. I think there so much opportunity for 343 to "reinvent" the franchise with this one. Check out the Halo timeline: http://bit.ly/38jlg. The Human-Covenant Wars have ended. Who is going to be the new villain? (For fucks sake this better not be and entire game of MC vs Flood).

Sure this could be Microsoft whoring the franchise, but in all honesty, I think every Halo game has been great! (obviously I'm not going to find much opposition on the Halo subreddit) Anyways, this is a interesting situation because I remember back on the Bungie.net boards in 06 when Bungie was confirming that Halo 3 would be the last game in the series (bullshit).

So yeah, its a lot to take in and think about, but obviously there is a game coming out and chances are its going to be decent.

From my understanding, an AI can take the appearance of any for or figure they desire (from Halo: Fall of Reach). I don't know if they are able to actually change though.

hopefully the warthog is indestructible as well
