In the gameplay trailer at 1:2, the hunter in firefight mode is wearing golden armour!

It doesn't look like a lighting effect, so maybe the highest wave has pretty much boss-level covenant with disgusting amounts of health and damage?

At 1:22 what looks suspiciously like the Halo CE more powerful hunter fire flies past an ODST.

What do you think?

Have you stopped the video and had a good long luck? Surely a lighting effect couldn't be that strong without making everything look golden. The grunts corpse etc are the actual colour, as is the background detail and blood spatters. Check it out, its weird.

well, i suppose if the Elites, Grunts, Brutes, and Spartans can have armor colors, the Hunters could too.

yeah, they talked about testing firefight and they all ran indise when hunters started coming. just as one said "it's ok, i dont think they can climb" on of them appeared behind them having climbed up and he just bolted whilst the other guy got battered

sounds like a right laugh!

Someone can probaly check this right now but I thought he said that they can climb stairs? Not a massive thing but certianly not scale walls or whatever it you all think they are all doing.

I think the Hunters can JUMP, not climb exactly. I mean they don't have anything to grasp with.

But Golden Hunters? Are they like more dangerous?
Maybe we'll finally have Hunters that fire plasma bolts and Hunters that fire beams?

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

Oh and if there was a mention to the (golden) Hunters, could someone tell the time stamp? I'd listen it myself.

sounds cool! im really looking forward to this game, firefight mode sounds great, battling off endless covenant waves, and i agree, it didnt look like a lighting effect, i cant wait to see if there really are uber golden hunters, youd need a tank for those things!

You just made me think of something. You know in the later levels of Firefight that Bungie is going to throw a scarab or two at us...oh boy XD

Yeah... But how are they different?
Maybe they have different weapon, like other Covies, color probably indicates rank and different Covie ranks tend to use different weapons.

:O

OMFG

You're right. They're gonna throw everything they've got at us. (Lets hope that theres a level full of Elite Honor Guards!)

Bring it on Bungie :) i can not wait to play

OH DEAR GOD

You made me think they might use different weapons, i.e. the previous style hunter cannon (not the weaker H3 beam variation)

So i checked the trailer...

At 1 minute 22 seconds, guess what gets fired at the ODST?!

OLD STYLE HUNTER FIRE!!!

or maybe just fuel rods... *sadface*
