I had just created a concept screenshot of the Halo 4 HUD.Check it out:)I spent a few hours doing some HUD layout stuff for H4 too. Not sure if I like your orange take, nor the dark edges.
Here's mine (you can see the full screen version here). Here it is without the BG (and full-sized) It's not the best, and could use a lot of work, I just haven't gotten around to spending time on it. Also please note that those things in the top-right are weapon add-ons and not grenades. Just didn't add in grenade icons, and the reason the pistol has a rocket-launcher-esque crosshair is because just before this scene, the Chief just shot a grenade with the pistol. I didn't do anything groundbreaking from what we're used to, and the reason there's the healthbar again is because I thought it'd be cool to bring Forerunner health stations into the mix for this game (since why would there be any health packs anywhere?).
I think 343i are likely going to stay somewhat close to Halo 3's HUD, but if they do change it, I imagine they'll wave it off by saying that Cortana spent some time "upgrading it".
And... "THERE WAS THIS NEW ARMOR IN THE SHIP THE WHOLE TIME!"
