I think thst 343 might change a few details.

"On the seventh day, god did not rest, but rather he created 64 player multiplayer!"

if they do, it would be in the form of terminals most likely. Everything else should be the same.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

It's the same game.

question everything...truth has no pedigree

I'd say minor retcons are possible, and I'd be fine with that. For example, I bet we hear some new dialog about Reach and Noble team.

Walk softly, and carry a big midget.

I hope they don't. I'd like it if they added a new mission or two. Maybe some cutscenes to explain what happened between the levels (like in Halo: The Flood). It'd be cool if they made a mission before the actual Halo CE Campaign to explain the mix up between what happened at the end of Halo Reach and Halo: The Fall of Reach (Book).

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Would've been cool if 343 could've added some ODST stages form The Flood, but I guess that would've been too much to ask for.

It isn't finished yet, those could just be placeholders.

Apparently there are a lot of placeholders right now but even if the Marines do look like Reach troopers I won't mind, they looked the best IMO.

Either way though, in terms of aesthetics there's hardly that much of a change as is. The items in question still function exactly the same as they did before making their identification within canon easy. AR still being the MA5B and functioning the same way despite the slight appearance change, same with the magnum.

As for the marines I do believe there was a statement saying that there could be a change in regards to the looks of the marines, but even as they stand the "army" look isn't that much of a stretch of difference considering that marines on Reach use the 'army' uniform as shown here. Unfortunately, I don't have pro, nor do I recommend that people go out of their way to render a 20 second clip for the sake of dialogue. However, since I keep getting PMs from people calling BS whenever I say there's a single scripted line where the 'army troopers' in Pillar of Autumn call themselves marines I decided to just capture the proof.

If the graphics switch is exactly what it sounds like then the new version must be identical to the original (in terms of placements, behaviour) for it to work.

I'm interested in what will happen with things like vehicle boarding, and the Wraith and things like that. Will the CEA Wraith have no turret, will it hover 5 foot off the ground like CE? Its all very interesting.
