It's been a year, and I'm surprised that I only took the time to notice these now, but they're pretty huge in retrospect because they describe what could be two huge elements of the single player campaign, or rather levels. And I apoligize if you've already noticed these...
The least obvious (so I don't get immediately flamed) is at the end of the video, when the Chief is approaching the bridge on the Ghost, he passed underneath a green sign which says the following:
CITY CENTRE____02 KM
SECTOR A_______04 KM
SECTOR B_______01 KM
DOCKS__________12 KM
Now, obviously these are various places in New Mombasa, the city seen in the demo. We, however, do know that there will be water effects in this game. Could one of them be at the "docks?" It is a possibility and it could make for a very interesting battle, especially if there is a water craft of some sort involved.
The second thing, which is very obvious but I don't know that I have ever paid attention to it, is the manned-turret at the rear of the Pelican as they land. It appears to be capable of firing missles and the standard .50 cal rounds during fly-bys. I figured since we've been confirmed that we won't be able to fly a Pelican, by Frank, don't you think it would make more sense strapping the Chief to the back of it and raining hell down on the Covenant from above? I think it would make for an interesting level...
