One could easily adapt a motion detection camera to detect a "reloading motion" or possibly, further, taking cover motions. Another way that it could be implemented is to give your squad directions without vocal command, say, for sneak ops that require stealth rather than giving "muffled radio commands," as described in the novels or in modern day warfare.
I envision that if not in Reach, some other game will take advantage of this great opportunity and create a game so spectacularly amazing that it will usher in a new era of Virtual Reality that we lost for so many years after the great "VirtuaBoy" debacle...
Honestly, imagine, for a minute, if you could "hop on" to whoever's driving a scorpion and "mime" sitting down on the edge of the tank as it moves along, shooting Covenant or Flood as they came along...
Draw your knife and sidle along the edge of a "wall" and come up behind your foe and make a cutting motion with whichever hand you choose and watch on screen as your virtual opponent falls to the ground or their mouth is covered as you drive it into their chest...
Sure, something some wouldn't want to do, but what if you had that option? What if that was your "only" option?
Maybe I'm thinking about this a bit too much, but I still think "Virtual > Only controllers" if only to add different effects and versatility to a game that wasn't there before...
