Subject: So, the Halo 4 trailer.

As disappointed as I am with this whole situation, with Microsoft being... Microsoft, and trampling over Bungie's name... I was pleased to hear "John" used in the trailer, not just "Chief! Chief! Herp derp Master Chief!"

I'm not really an Apple person (Bananas forever) but damn, that's kinda sad.

Well, I'm a bit dissapointed that it's being released in 2012, and not 2013 or 14, but hopefully it's good.

I honestly don't really care about the multiplayer as much at this point, I'm worried there will be copious amounts of canon breaking; we can only pray that 343 an Microsoft GS will respect the canonical Bible and whatnot.

You can't break canon if there isn't any.

Halo 4 is, obviously, set after the events of Halo 3. No-body knows any of what happens yet. Karen Traviss is writing a series of novels set post-Halo 3 that, presumably, will tie-in nicely with Halo 4, 5 and 6.

As for the jetpack, as everybody has discussed, but as thousands of idiots will scream about... it's either part of his armour (take one looks at the back of Mark VI and you'll see it fits in, no problems) or, as his armour is different, he's wearing new armour.

I was more worried about any huge, canon-altering story arcs/fluctuations 343/MGS might introduce; it would be upsetting, I think, to see that take place without any of Bungie's involvement.

As for the "jetpack," yeah, it looks more like some sort of orbital maneuvering gear that would have served no purpose on the ground.

It's already been in development for 2 years, so 343's had time. It'll be good.
