Racism isn't wrong if it's funny.

(Not sure if this goes here. If it don't, then lock-a-roonie.)

So 343 you've already dropped the ball. In a very minute fashion, mind you, but I am going to give it to you easy because, if I don't, the canon nerds will. And they'll give it to you hard (that's what she said).

So, continuity problem. We were made aware, well in advance of it's release, that in Reach your CPU co-soliders were in fact no longer Marines but rather Army. So I am watching the 343 commentary or proposal or whatchamacallit, and I notice (at 2:05) that the soldiers are Army.

What, what, WHAT?!

Personally for me, not a big deal. For others? Well I'm sure they will vocalize their thoughts very soon and very, VERY, loudly.

[EDIT]: I have seen the "Grunt Funeral Skull" video.
P.S. The title is a joke.

"I will show you how a true Prussian officer fights!"

"And i will show you where the iron crosses grow..."

- "Cross of Iron"

That video is not the complete version of the game, that was gameplay they just chose to show which was almost in an alpha stage i guess you could say. In there new video the AR is back to normal with enhanced graphics along with the covenant.

Yeah, a) that doesn't disprove the initial point I brought up, b) those are the same Minor Elites from the first video I showed. There are different classes of elites in the first Halo.
I suppose they could change it, though it's not likely at this stage.

in a recent video showing off the grunt funeral skull, the original assault rifle is in rather then the reach variant,like they said it was just an early build of the game.

kind of like when building reach bungie had used halo 3 models in place of the reach models.

I am a pharmaceutical scientist. I received my Masters degree in Pharmaceutics from the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia in 2010, after working as a Pharmacist for 4 years. I currently work in King of Prussia, PA, and focus on the analytical chemistry of small molecule APIs. My clients include some of the most well known big pharma companies in the world.

So, you're already willing to convict 343 (ie "Strike One, 343.") based on a tiny sample? Sorry, what you did is just sensationalistic forum-posting. Whether your point can be proven or disproven, you're just trying to make this out to be bigger than it really needs to be.

Best to point this out to you now before the thread gets carried away.

I've see the video, but it's still inconclusive.

You do bring up a good point though. Although I'd imaging it's much easier to re render one weapon than every soldier in the Campaign. Again, "I'd imagine".

Just to clarify, I am -blam!- psyched for Halo: Anniversary. I was just making a jestful post about how there would be a bunch of canon nerds who would cry foul over this "observation".
