First proof: Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't Spartans supposed to be indistinguishable when in their armour. The farthest left ( who in my opinion appears to be an elite :S ) look to be too different for them to be a squad of Spartans. The smallest character also appears to different. Second proof: The things on the characters right side of the helmet does not match any known Spartan armour variants. While it is pluasable the Bungie has created a new helmet nothing was said about it in the Reach book making it unlikely. It would however fit a marine much more. To me the object looks like some sort of optical device. Third proof: - http://www.bungie.net/images/games/Reach/background.jpg - If you zoom in on the farthest right character's face isn't smooth like a Spartans visor would be. It looks more like a face, a nose to be specific. Fourth proof: The story of Spartans on Reach have already been told in the books. Playing from a marines view would allow Bungie much more creative liberty as they wouldn' t have to worry about breaking previously stated cannon. Conclusion: My guess is that the "five" Spartans . Dicuss.
My game rules:1. Camping- okay2. Power weapons- go right ahead3. Janitor (aka Scrapping)- also good4. Spawn Killing- What, I'm supposed to give you a chance to kill me?
ODST?
I think they are Spartans. Just my theory. We will find out more in the coming months.Edit: Spelling Error.[Edited on 06.03.2009 7:33 PM PDT]

93% of statistics are lies. Formerly Xfire Grunt. Unfortunately, you can't change the WLID for your BNET account, so I had to create an alternate account. My other WLID was spam city (and it was my e-mail account too).
Well in Halo Wars the Spartans move in teams of 3, so that could make sense. Of course I didn't think the Spartans were Bad Ass enough in Halo Wars either.I'm not sure indistinguishable means they are all the same size though. Just that you can't really tell, they are armored behemoths, and for the average humans its tough to distinguish one from the other even though the armor sizes are different.
It looks an awful lot like the two in the middle are wearing boonie caps- something you often see marines doing in Halo 3, but spartans always wear there helmets.
THEY ARE ALL SPARTANS QUIT ASKING THE SAME QUESTION ALL THE -blam!- TIME!

That one on the far left really looks like a elite. I mean if you look at the leg structure, it looks very similar. Plus its taller than every one :D

You're right about the spartans in the books being visually indistinguishable, but think about this as a video game:There aren't going to be any narrators telling you which spartan is which onscreen; you're going to have to make that distinction visually. In order for your proposed scenario to work, each spartan would have to say a line every time they appear onscreen, which is impossible from a storytelling standpoint.If anything, I imagine that Bungie will give each spartan some form of visual marker as they've done with the ODST's in their current project. Lack of discernability between protagonists doesn't work out too well in complex fiction.
The one on the very right looks like Linda. Just a guess because she/he has a sniper.

Because that tall one is towering over the second tallest Spartan. The only character it could be is Sam.

Consider the possibility that they are not all standing in a straight line, which would make them appear different sizes. One "spartan" might be 5 feet back, the other 3 etc.
Team Prodigy (5-4)Prodigy Doubles (3-0)
The game is going to be an MMO. Why the hell would they make another shooter. They already have two active shooters, there trying to copy Blizzard. Look at Halo Wars, now this is going to be an MMO, I guarantee it.Thats why they all appear different. Choose your own class, that whole deal. I'd bet money on it.[Edited on 06.03.2009 8:52 PM PDT]
