1. There's a bit towards the end where you see a few spartans fighting, and there's a shield ball sat on top of a mini-wall. I'm gonna go 99.5% sure that there will be powerups scattered across the maps. I'm gonna hazard a guess that when they spawn they'll be random, too.
2. One of the previous weekly updates, the one about the warthog, has something in there about detachable weaponry. That gun resembles the warthog turret, it's safe to say you're probably right about that too. Which means, if we DO end up seeing a rockethog.......=)
1. Yeah, I noticed that. Since it's from the Alpha build, I don't want to suggest that it's definitely going to be that way, though. Still, yes, I think that sounds like the most reasonable way for Bungie to go.
2. Honestly, though, while carrying a Warthog's chain gun around would be nice, that's not what I really care about. You know what I'm REALLY interested in? Detaching the Gauss cannons. Duuuude. Driving to the other team's base in a full Warthog, detaching the cannon, bursting into the other team's base with a Gauss in-hand and blowing them all away so a teammate can snag the flag? Priceless. That is an extremely arousing thought. Or using it on defense? "Oh, you're coming for our flag with a shotgun? I don't think so." BLAM. I have a feeling that I'm going to LOVE the amped-up firepower in this game.
To tell ya the truth, I would hope, that if you could detach the guass cannon, it would take 2 players, because otherwise, it would be a little too advantageous.
