Also the Blue patchs could be away of stopping the Brown/Gold/yellow team from being too camouflage.

Just a possibillity...

If you look close in the warthog there is a red master chief in the drivers side and thers a guy in the smoke with a battle rifle and a plasma granade right next to the MC who is droping the battle rifle and getting a shot gun.

Good observation; I never even saw that before

Oh please let this mean there will be an option for more than 2 teams. That would be soooo cool.

I prefer human vs. covies.

More than two teams would be lame anyway, the bigger the team the better. If they include both, that'd be fine too. Hehe.

I don't see how they could make the game without the option for more than 2 teams.

More than two teams is lame? I'll tell you whats lame, whats lame is when you got 7 other guys runnign around like they're on crack and won't or can't work together. Whats not lame is smaller, more manageable teams that can work together as a tight unit. The less people there is the easier it is to be cohesive. And with 4 of these smaller groups the fun of large amounts of people is not lost.

Go try Timesplitters 2 to see what I mean.

Ok, I'll try and sum up what I think of this shot,
1. there are 3 brown MCs on foot, and one red in the warthog
2. I think that the highlighted leg panel is due to the light above the closest MC, although I can't be sure.
3. The MC switching weapons in the back left, I think the shotgun looks stubby due to perspective.
4. The wrist panels are definately coloured
5. The green is probably plasma, but it could be a new type of needler ammo, could this point to multiple ammo types for weapons? (AP and shredder for AR/ Magnum or explosive for pistol?)
ONe last thing, the dust looks very nice, and so does the warthog, look at the dust, it's quite brilliant.

In QuakeWorld Team Fortress (not the not as good Team Fortress Classic that Half-Life 1 got), there was a level known as 2f4. It featured 4 teams capture the flame and was really really fun. (think 2Fort4 (or just 2Forts if you played only the remake) and have the bridge have another bridge (that runs threw the one to make a +) and adds more bases). the only thing that was bad about the level was that the water ways had no exits, so you eiter died down there or figured out how to launch yourself out.

But yes, CTF with 4 teams is good in previous games and I'm possitive Bungie could pull it off...

Yes! Awesome 2 weapon action!!! Suh-weet!

I wonder whats going on with that dude with the shotgun. DId he just drop that battle rifle and those grenades? Or did someone just bite the dust in front of him?

And what are those green things coming at the MCs?


First of all, great screenshot. I believe those green colored objects are Needler ammunition. I believe you are correct when you say someone had been killed in front of the Spartan holding the M90 Shotgun. So the Battle Rifle and Plasma Grenade are just falling onto the ground, might I add nice details to the enviroment changes as the battle rages on, the sand or might be smoke being kicked up from stray bullets possibly. The person who identified the Red Spartan sitting in the driver seat of the Warthog, first, nice observation indeed. I just noticied that when I zoomed in. Nice detail to the Warthog's headlights on top of the windshield, etc.

Has anyone noticed the strange object about 3 feet to the left of the Warthog? It looks like a gun coming through the wall, or something. I dunno.

And people who are saying that the screens look horrible: It could easily be that you have a really crappy monitor. All the screens looked bad to me until I got my new monitor.

I don't think it's the needler because it's green. Why would they make it green?!? Where are the needles?!?!

I noticied that too, Dark, I believe it might just be a pipe in the wall.

Excuse me, I'm not saying it IS the Needler, I'm just commenting, so back off. The objects being directed towards the Spartans' look very much like Needler ammunition.

I think it looks more like charged plasma.

Well, maybe your right Spito and maybe I could be right. I'm just saying it could be from a Needler because the amount of ammunition all over, and the way it looks.

Maybe the guy isn't dying. Maybe with the new localize damage animations, it's possible to knock a weapon out of someone's hand. Can anyone makeout the color of the Spartan obscured by the smoke? I see traces of red.

Ok, first off, the little thingy you pointed out is obviously a particle of dirt since you see more of it scattered about near by. And about the covie vs. spartan idea. I've been an avid XBC player and hungry tourny man, so i know halo MP, and the only way they can pull of a covie vs. spartan without destroying the glory of halo MP is if they have human vs. CPU. And if i recall correctly, Bungie said they will not have bots (CPU) in multiplayer.

Pic looks beautiful, though. =)

The only problem with that is the fact that Charged plasma shoots were enormus... Those are clearly even smaller then the regular plasma pistol shots... That's why people think it's needler ammo, because it's the only known Covenant weapon that shoots that much that fast and it's small and has trails like the old needler did in Halo : CE, the only difference is that they are green and not pink...
