Subject: Engineers and more, read before you say anything.

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

Ok, well I didn't bother to look at the front page of threads, all I knew I had to do was after reading the OXM magazine I had to say that

ENGINEERS ARE CONFIRMED, and they are being evily used by Brutes.
They put shields around your enemies and apparently are "Floating Bombs". They don't want to hurt you but the Brutes are making them do it. Oh and the achievements are real, they didn't tell all of them but the ones they did say are part of the leaked ones so you can guess all leaked are true.
Aside from flashbacks, there are 30 audio logs. I believe they have to do with the Superintendant. Also there are Golden Armored hunters, don't seem to be anything special though.
Engineers must be hard to not attack because as said above, they help the covenant and don't SEEM to help you in any way.

And also there is a secret game project after Reach. Reach is PLANNED to be the last Bungie-Halo game, but we don't know for sure just yet. Sounds fun doesn't it?

-SPOILER-BUCKS FLASHBACK ITEM-
They went into a building to find tons of dead covenant. They went up 4 floors and found Buck's helmet crashed and crammed into a wall-making a flashback. Starts off with him and Dare talking to eachother. Then static goes over Dare's side and you end up having to go on a journer to her crashsite through a bunch of covenant to find her pod empty.

Dont be paranoid, this is a good post considering most of the bungie community doesnt get the mag. As far as I know this is the first post of that nature.

Alot of people wern't believing them at the time. So I had to say that.

I believe the claims about "gold armored hunters" to be false. It would seem to be a mere trick of the light. There are also shown to be no new or "special" classes of hunter in the stats enemies screenshots. New drone leaders, yes. New hunters, no. I have seen the IGN video showing a hunter and a supposed Halo:CE hunter cannon projectile. However, on closer observation this is shown for what it is - a fuel rod gun projectile. Fired from a standard fuel rod gun.

Any word on how the engineers are turned into bombs? Do the brutes just shoot them? They are full of methane and other gases. I'm sure they'd explode.

Looking at the picture in the magazine, it was not light, I could clearly see it to be on their armor.

Most likely you could use them for your own use and shoot them near enemies, or a time bomb. They look really armored and don't look anything like we seen them before.
They look abit scary.

I read the same magazine you did, and in my opinion it is simply the lighting. But neither of us have any actual factual evidence to support either of our opinions. So believe what you want. But there were no other hunter classes in the stats menu.

I don't see how it could be the light, a lighting on BLUE armor can't make it Gold.

As I said, believe what you like. I'm just offering my own viewpoint here. Just saying neither of us can be adamant because we have no real proof either way.

There is also a gold hunter.

How does he explode? Proximity? Remote control? Do the brutes shoot him?

Is this speculation, or did OXM say this? You're telling me they willingly blow themselves up?
