The End

‘The conscious is cancerous if allowed to linger’

"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."

I think it's a spartan. I believe Fred is the largest Spartan from the books so I'm assuming that's him or it could be Sam, who was larger, although he wasn't present on reach because of a prior mission.

I doubt it is an elite because it has a chain gun and with evidence looking like a prequel (the name on the game) I doubt an elite would be standing alongside Spartans. It wasn't in the book and was never documented before Halo 2.

If it is a sequel then maybe it's an elite but even still it looks like a spartan to me with the curved helmet. Elites are more angular.

idk it looks more like a grunt when you zoom in...


Nope, still looks like a heavy machine gun, bullet belt and a leg. Granted (from left to right) the 2nd character looks female, but I think the Elite and Grunt theory can be tossed aside as there is no logical reason for them being there
I reject your reality and substitute my own!

Remember Reach?

i would assume that there are 2 female chars
the 2. from left and the char at the right side
why? you ask?
well. the 2. from left is obviously a woman i think and there's not only me believing that
the char at the right side:
i guess it must be a char from the books
you know her, sniper rifle freaky woman xD called linda
guess that's a sniper in her hands isn't it?
so jeah that must be linda.
the other womna has to be kelly =) she's thin and the fastest of the squad
There is NO reason for the left guy to be an elite^^
guess it has to be sam (isn't he the stronger sparten, bigger and so on)
at that time there were no friendships with covies :D

that is an elite on the far left, and it is a chain gun or some other large weapon, however, covenant hated human weapons classing it as "primitive" however they would still use it if they had to. If an elite was working with the others there, he might have only had access to human weaponry and chose the chain gun due to its awesome nature.

either that or they are just showing who the main characters in the story are going to be.

and it is possible for the weapon to be some sort of carbine chain gun. (a chain gun that launches the radioactive rounds like a carbine.)

Yeah but i doubt they would add any new weapons

Nah, I don't think it is.

Reason: it looks as though [insert name of whatever it is] is holding what looks to be a chaingun of sorts. Sort of like this guy from MGS (sans the backpack full o' ammo). Furthermore, it's more like that if the [insert name of whatever it is] is holding what looks to be a chaingun, it's more likely to be a human-type "thing".

: )

  • 06.03.2009 7:38 AM PDT

What?

ok this might sound retardedly stupid.. but if it was an elite could this game not be about the battles on reach but maybe something to do with the spartans that got trapped in that shield world from the books? yeah i no...

I think It's (From Left to Right)
The Unnamed Spartan (From the Trailer), Kelly, John, Fred, and Linda.

  • 06.03.2009 8:05 AM PDT

Bungie Pentathlon - who actually cares ?

Right,

This will confirm it IS a Spartan. Look at the knee armour of the Spartan on the far left...it is slightly pointy...now match it to the knee armour of the Spartan in the middle.

Its a direct match, thus meaning the figure on the far left is indeed a Spartan....please no more of this Elite malarky.......also I believe it is James....James had his left arm blown off and the arm on the figure on the left looks robotic in way

Its not an Elite!!! although TGP - you are wasted as a Mod, please do more graphic designs!!! I love the smiley face Elite you drew...would be a nice Easter Egg to find in this game! hahah!

I think the left figure looks more like the Spartan armor from Cole Protocol, big and bulky

You would have to be blind or just an idiot to think that looks anywhere near an Elite.

1.It is standing straight up.
2.Elites were the sworn enemy of of the Humans just like the other Covenant.
3.He is weilding a machine gun.
4. The armor looks the same as the Spartans on the right.(look at the leg armor, hey it looks the same)
5. The center indent on the helmet of the so called 'Elite'. Wait a minute don't Spartans have that same indent?
These are just a few reasons. Just go read The Fall of Reach. This goes to anyone who honestly believes that the one on the left is an Elite. Not flaming either just stating some facts.

  • 06.03.2009 8:47 AM PDT

ZZZzzzZZZzzzZZZ Its'a mazing

It can only be an elite if its like some heretic or betrayer or smething but i doubt it i mean they still hate spartans

ohai...

I believe the one on the far right is Linda - 058, the center could maybe be chief or Frederic - 104 and one of the others could be Kelly - 087. Since these where the main Spartans during Reach.

And I don't know about it been an Elite on the left because his armor looks similar to the others, such as the legs.

someone already made a thread about this, explaining in detail that these 5 spartans are the last remaining spartans from the Halo Fall of Reach book. Each of the characters in terms of their size, weapons and armour (from what we can see in the sillouette picture) are accurate renditions of the last 5 spartans in the book. They all have names, stories, special weapons training.....etc. MC is in the middle, and the other 4 are other spartans that range in size, armour, weapon class, and specialties. I think one of the most interesting will be the one second from right, who will be fixed up with 1 or two machetes, and possibly some other melee weapons. Apparently this game will also delve back into some Marathon and "Halo before Halo" weapons and storylines. go to youtube and search "Halo before HAlo" It'll show you Bungie's trailer for the original Halo CE originally supposed to ship onto the MAC OS a LONG time ago. It shows a machete in-game, as well as some other weapons and ideas.....This game is going to rock.

Its not an elite.

Check the hips and the Knees. The shape is exactly the same as the rest. I thought it was an Elite, too. But its not.

They are all spartans....even the sniper on the right. Again, look at the knees, they all have some kind of MLJONR armour on(cant remember how to spell that), you can tell by the way the armour plating on the knees sticks up like how it does for MC. They are all spartans, and they all look sick as hell. I REAALLY hope you can use all of them and their special classes in multiplayer and that bungie really takes advantage of the beta. SO STOOOKEd. Who isnt?

It's hard to tell but trying to go by the hip joints and shoulder joints it doesn't look much like a marine or spartan but I could be wrong.

Hmm...
Well, I think that it's either an elite, or an extremely tall Spartan (and Spartans are pretty tall themselves) with very bulky rounded shoulders, strange leg form and a tail, or an elite holding some kind of new weapon.

Subject: Halo: Reach Forum Title Banner - ELITE ON FAR LEFT?

Ohey guys :)

Rofl I had the same post earlier.

The one on the far left might be an elite.
The one next to him looks like a female marine.
The middle one looks like a spartan.
The one next to him looks like a spartan.
The one on the far right looks like an ODST.

'Nuf said lol. We only know what they look like. Who they are... Well let's just say God and Bungie only know.

  • 06.03.2009 9:37 AM PDT

You can clearly see spartan armor, his waist armor is also extremely similar to the marines. His legs only look like that because the turret outline is in the way. Although, there is the matter of the right shoulder, which is a little too separated from the body for human structure, but that could be anything. There is also the fact that Halo Reach takes place 20 years in the past, at which time the elites were still part of the covenant and were still fighting the humans which makes it impossible for that to be an elite..
