That structure at 0:36 looks very different to anything we've ever seen before.
Anyone's inner Mass Effect fan grin when Palmer shouted "HOLD THE LINE!"?
Can't wait for some of the new episodes - more space battles, more epic confrontations, more mysterious revelations. I hope the 3 week wait is worth it, glad to hear that there'll be new locations too.
That space battle scene is from Episode 1, unfortunately.
But I am intrigued by that bio-architecture looking thing. It looks far too out of place to be Forerunner or Covenant, nothing like them at all, which to me means it's a new faction. It could be a Precursor structure the Forerunners dug up and were researching on Requiem, or it could be Flood. Neither of those sound likely, because it'd be odd for the Precursors to be introduced in Spartan Ops, as they're more fit for a main game reveal. And the Flood would require entirely new enemy behavior modeling and art, also seems unlikely for S:ops. If it is the Flood, however, I'll be very impressed.
So for now, I have a nagging feeling it's a bizarre covenant structure, but that seems as likely as any of the others so it's up in the air.
Edit: Hell, after seeing it again, it very well could be alive itself. What a twist that would be, if it was a sleeping Precursor.
