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.
Looking at the picture in the magazine, it was not light, I could clearly see it to be on their armor.
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.
You do realize that they can have a different color yet still be the same class, right? Take the brutes, for example. Brute captain's are the same class, have the same armor type, and yet they also have different colored armor (blue, red, or gold). They still play the same; the only difference is the color. This can also be applied to grunts and brute infantry soldiers. Just because a hunter has gold armor, doesn't mean that it's an entirely new class. Although after watching the new ViDoc, I think the gold hunter may be able to shoot fuel rod bursts (like in Halo 1) instead of the "scarab-like" beam.
