omg not realistic stop game production plz

I can't explain why but I feel somewhat connected to the Forward Unto Dawn as if it were a character like John and Cortana.

When I watched the Halo 4 reveal trailer, and subsequently the Dawn head towards that gigantic Forerunner (?) planetoid, I couldn't help but feel suddenly as if she was a character travelling with John and Cortana - after I'd seen her arrive magnificently a while back and later escaped in her nearly 4 years ago, away from the Ark. I know that as a ship the Dawn will never be back but I just wanted to know if anyone else actually felt somewhat comforted by the presence of the Dawn, as if it were a re-assuring familiar sight in the face of this daunting new adventure.

Yea just like the Autumn was our home in Halo CE.

I wouldn't put the Dawn in the same class as the Autumn. For me it's because there wasn't any combat on the ship, it was always just kinda there.

Why the In Amber Clad for you?

The Dawn, for me, feels like one of very few remnants of the classic trilogy being brought over into the new one. Like I said, almost like a comforting, familiar face.

Gospel of John, 1:1-7

I personally like the Spirit of Fire.

?

How so? The reason it doesn't look like the Dawn from earlier in Halo 3 is because Chief is in cryo in only one half of the Dawn. It got seared in two by the portal remember?

It's that I don't see the thrusters/engines or the large hanger. It doesn't look the same. Neither does the Cryo chamber, but it was just a CG trailer; subject to change.

No that you mention it.

I have more of a connection with The Pillar of Autumn. That's where it all began. However who knows what will happen with it in Halo 4. Probably explode though.

Try "vv" (Two v's). It'll look wierd, but It'd make it easier to get your point across when in desparate need of w's.
