Well, concerning the spartan in the trailer wearing both types of armor, this could possibly mean it is another spartan other than the Master Chief. In the books, if I remember right, MC met up with the other spartans on Reach, and upgraded parts of their armor to the new model using parts that they had. This could mean that this is another spartan that just landed on Earth, or the lone survivor after a huge war on Earth. However, Cortana speaking to him kind of makes me ignore all this and think that it is the Master Chief. Although, if this trailer takes place towards the end of the game, it could be that the Master Chief is either dead or MIA, and this spartan is the only one left. Cortana and everyone else has to put their trust in him, hence the shield and sword bit. As for the defying gods and demons, I take that to mean that higher powers didn't want Cortana talking to whichever spartan that is, meaning that she is trying to reveal important information that could effect the outcome of the entire world.
I really don't think that they would kill MC or make him MIA.....He plays way too big a part to the Halo storyline.....they can't just make another Spartan the new hero.
