Subject: Lets Look At That Picture, Anyone See New Weapons?

Well if you zoom in very far on that picture for Halo: Reach you can see 5 figures standing in a bright sphere that looks like a moon or something. Each one of these people look like they are holding weapons. Now lets guess what these weapons are.

Right to Left:

Sniper Rifle
Knife???
Battle Rifle
Rocket Launcher (Notice the figure has a very large left shoulder, that is probably the head of the rocket launcher)
Wait what is that guy on the left holding????? There is something weird coming from the bottom of it. Turret of some sort?

I also think the guy on the left is an alien and the rest are humans.

If you look in the background you see covenant ships and mountains in the distance.

Just found all of this interesting.

That is all.

-edit-

Through much discussion, due to the figure on the lefts stature, he is most likely an elite.

I am also 90% sure the person to the right of the elite is holding a rocket launcher if you look closely.

Mabye the fact one of the figures may have a knife means some new melee or stealth aspects will be added to the game... we shall see.

Thank you for all of your posts.

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).

The guy in the left looks like he is holding a chain gun : O
I see ( chain gun?) sniper rifle, shotgun, pistol, knife.


That doesn't really look like the Halo chain guns at all. Looks like a minigun/laser gun of some kind.

He can't be an Elite, they aren't on our side yet....

He does look like one though. That's been bugging the Hell out of me since I saw it.


Also, the guy in the middle has an Assault Rifle... Exciting.

the silhouette on the left does indeed look like an elite, whether or not they were on our side. hell, i think it kind of looks like the arbiter...

also, it looks like he is holding a flamer.

The character on the left can only be an Elite.

The armor is the same as most of the Elites, although it looks more like the armor worn by the Arbiter.

Notice how he is hunched over and very tall.


That's exactly what I was thinking.

the guy on the far left looks a little bit like an elite, notice the legs and tall stature.....

  • 06.04.2009 8:38 PM PDT

i think the guy on the left is Samuel-034 because he is uncommonly tall

Take a closer look. His legs are not smooth like elite armor, but have small bumps at the knees, indicating knee jooints, where all the other spartans' are. The hunching effect is likely due to some heavy equipment or armor. Being the heavy weapons man, he would be a prime target, and would have to be able to take fire. Also, his head has the 'visor' that all the other spartans' helmets have. Elites' arms reach lower in proportion to ther body than his do, and their legs have two joints, not one. Those look like very intimidating boots, not hooves.

Ok, for the last time. If any of you have read the books (I'm guessing no since you believe the figure on the left to be an elite) you would know who this figure is. His name is Samuel. Samuel is the largest of all the Spartans. I don't want to ruin any of the story for you all but this makes me believe Halo: Reach will start from the beginning just like the first book Halo: The fall of Reach. You should all definitely pick up all the Halo books by Eric Nylund. They are amazing and the other ones by different authors aren't so bad either. If you think the games are great, wait till you see the whole world that was created for the Halo series. These are books that you won't want to put down and this is coming from someone who can't stand reading books. So trust me!

And let's not get backtracked here. The only action that happens on reach that is major involves the covenant attack, "the first strike" Watch the preview, the focus is "we have spartans on the ground, We aren't going anywhere."

These must be the five main spartans mentioned in the first book each having their specialty. Linda-058 being the sniper on the right. Fred being the one with the combat knife because he is described as being good with a combat knife. Kelly is the spartan between John(MC) and Sam. She is shorter than John and is known for her incredible speed. At one point she had to purposely slow herself down in order to have a fair spar with a fellow spartan. So yeah peeps, is this just coincidence that 5 of the 6 main spartans from halo: the fall of reach fit these figures in the picture? I mean come on, the knife and and the huge gun is big give away on those guys parts as well as the sniper. The only character we are missing is James but I guess he doesn't play necessarily as big as a part as these 5. Not yet.

Yes, I would have to agree with the 2 posters above me. Your average marine-grade human will be around six foot tall. To my knowledge, the MJOLNIR takes a 6 foot person up to 7 foot. That explains how tall he is. MJOLNIR armor is also much larger than marine armor, explaining why the dudes has a larger width. As was said above, hes holding some big firepower, so he's hunching. If any of you had read the book, you'd know that the elites despise the humans at this point. Hell, they despised the human in Halo 3, but teamed up with them for mutual benefit, and because they hated the brutes moreso than they hated the humans.

The Webmaster only wears socks. Pants just slow him down.

If that is Sam and we do start from the beginning then we get to see him die. That will be fun.

yeaup i see it

  • 06.04.2009 9:22 PM PDT

If anyone has not noticed this also, but the 2nd from the right telling from the statcher of how its standing could be Kelly from the novals or it could be the 4th from right seeing how this one is skinny compaired to the others. Also their armor might be of the series 2-3 seeing how diff it looks by the helmet and shoulders, seeing this could mean that they have could be in their mark 3 armor and not the mark 4. i my self have read all the books and played all the games and the MC's mark 4-5 armor is not the same as in this picture.
