No ones has talked about this as far as I know (I use search and found nothing) But I wanted to discuss about how helpful the AI will be. If you look at Dutch's flashback with Mickey sometimes when the player wasn't going to the objective Mickey would be arming the bombs. Do you think this kind of stuff will be in the game and if so how much they will do it? Like if someone asks you to open a door but you don't do it after a minute will one of your squad mates run off and do it?

Example: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-09-halo-3-odst/50401

Look at :55 on, notice that Joel never armed the first demo pack but later when he turns around it's been armed and Mickey is stepping away from it.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

I, personaly, believe that since you are no longer a Spartan the AI will be much more of a help. Even if they made no change to the AI at all (which they obviously did) they will be more of a help in this game because you can't simply run in and take an entire army out by yourself.

"Get tactical marines!"

Sorry, I just had to say it.

I do agree that the AI will be much more valuable than they have proven to be in the past Halo games, but I also believe that the opposing AI will be more advanced as well, meaning that you will have to conserve ammo, and (please see quote above).

I'm the cult of personality,
I call it like i see it, if i feel the need to be blunt and to the point, then i will, if i feel the need to be very detailed, i will, im here to stay and im here to do things my way, if you respect that or not is your choice, not mine,
and don't worry, while i don't agree with everyone's opinion, i do respect everyone's opinion.

well there is no telling what the AI will do so far it just helps out with stuff like transportation and giving directions but no more then that as far as i know

He isn't referring to the SI, he is referring to your computerized friends and foes that will be battling with you.

BUT.

You will, hey wait! Didn't you wanna hear what you'd get first!"

I'm hoping that the driving from them has been improved too. I hope they have some good dynamic dialog going on also like point out positions and such.
