Since Halo: Reach is based off of the book Halo: The Fall of Reach, since this probably means that all the characters will be there does this mean that you can play as the taller SPARTAN( Can't remember his name) and will that effect gameplay?
Also if you could play as the sniper( Also forgot her name) will there be a change in the HUD or in the targeting system?

add a horn that says "!%*@ BILL O' REILLY" in Austin Powers' voice, and
I like how if anyone ever says a nice thing about Bungie people think all they want is Recon, and if someone says something bad about Bungie people join with them. And then after they get done bagging on Bungie, they go play the game that Bungie made

The fall of reach was one of the books. This game is about the fall of reach. Try doing the math

If you read the book, you would know what I said. However it seems to me that you haven't, in which I will ask you why did you even post in here?
It's kind of an insult to have you say that I haven't read that book, because The Fall of Reach is the only Halo book I have.
However thank you for trying to say something about this anyway.

I just remembered that the taller of the SPARTANs died shortly after being on a Covenant ship due to being shot in the side by a plasma pistol, and a bomb going off so will he only make a short appearance in the game?

If you were able to play as the other spartans i would assume the difference would be one of two things.

1) small, so as not to cause much difference and keep the gameplay balanced. In this case i would assume the overall difference would be maybe the shape/colour of the HUD.

2) The difference would be massive, and this is one of the major points of the campaign, to play as multiple characters, the option to play as these characters would also be in the multiplayer. The characters unique differences would play vital roles in the campaign and have a certain advantages over one and other in the multiplayer. The option to be either one would be changed in a similar sense to how it is done in Halo 3, possible as a sub-class in the spartan menu.

I would have thought.
