The weapon in the second leaked image looks like the pistol grenade launcher thing from the trailer.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

From what I can read, these are some new AA's:

Spoiler

Thruster pack
Hard-light shield
regeneration field
Active camo
Promethean vision

There is a lot more stuff than I was expecting, AA and the specilizations. The wealth of options available to the player to customise seems pretty large.

A lot bigger in first person than i expected it to be from the OXM cover.

Indeed. Love that.

 

[GhaleonEB]

It's going to be an amazing hectic launch day, in terms of taking everything in. Do I do campaign, a little bit of SO or get some multi in.

Pretty hard for me, cause I like to be dedicated to one thing and then move on.

I'll do what I always do: A Heroic Campaign play through, not touching any other mode until I'm done.

 

[Gabotron ES]

More leaks? I approve.

Compile all pics in one post? New thread or add to existing...?

 

[Mister Negative]

So...that kerning in the armor abilities screenshot.

Looks like we'll be getting shotty spawns after all.

Unless these are fake as well, but that's appearing doubtful.

Add to existing.

Also...I kinda want to see this stuff fresh, so I'm bailing till the E3 reveal. Laters.

 

[Poker Face]

saw "tactical package" and cringed a little.

I posted them in the leaked gameplay thread. Not sure if there should be another thread.

Shotty spawns might be just in the beta ATM just to test them, doesn't mean they're in the final game

Holy shit, that guy on Twitter a couple nights ago was right wasn't he?

He called the hardlight shield and the turrets.

edit: He also got the perk that gives you 2 primary weapons right as well.

I have a bad feeling that by the end of E3 I might be withdrawing my LE preorder

[biosnake20]

hype falling

 

[Hydranockz]

Looks pretty sweet so far.

Woder if we'll see things that'll trick people more such as that target locator thing. What if, all it could do was spawn a beacon as if new ordinance was dropping? Could be cool. Non-offensive stuff like Holograms seem to have worked before.

 

[Poker Face]

wait wheres the killstreak options?

just kitten....

still, the name "tactical package" is just awful. who was choosing these names?

 

[bobs...onGaf]

This seems to confirm that post on thehaloforum aswell, oh well I'm sure MLG will be ok

 

[Im_So_Pringles]

The more I hear about Halo 4's MP the more I don't like it. Ugh.

 

[Fracas]

Anybody want to play some Halo: Reach today? Want to get some classic Halo in me before E3.

Spoiler

only half kidding

 

[Mister Negative]

He's watching us, and he's fucking with us.

Sup, MTW.

 

[Hydranockz]

A fair assumption given how Reach MLG played the hand it was dealt. If the faster gameplay rumours are to be believed, things could be much better.

 

[Overdoziz]

You can clearly see his tactical package with his CoD-piece being gone.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

I'm wondering how powerful those auto sentry guns are, and how long they last.

Can you imagine everyone on a BTB team putting down a turret at the objective, and not have to worry about defending it much.

 

[Myyke]

The more I hear about Halo 4's MP the more I WANT TO GET MY HANDS ON IT. SPLOOGE.

I'd take a turret over you anyday!

 

[Woorloog]

The more i hear of Halo 4 MP, the more it sounds like a combination of Halo and COD i've wanted Halo to be for a long time.

6 bubble shields in Invasion over the core.

This. I'm excited not for Halo 4, but for the tools Halo 4 will be giving to the community.

Not to say I won't be playing the default playlists, but MLG is showing a hell of a lot of potential.

 

[Homeboyd]

Halo 4 is going to be amazing. Yeah I said it.. there's the ignore button.

Can't wait til they announce Clans and the return of Guardian.

Doesn't matter if competitive community can make it into a fun, competitive game.
If no casuals watch then it is doomed to fail.
And casuals won't watch something they don't understand.

 

[Steelyuhas]

There is a lot more stuff than I was expecting, AA and the specilizations. The wealth of options available to the player to customise seems pretty large.

I'm sure there will be more in the final game as well. They never include the whole set of weapons/perks/AA in beta builds.

Hardlight shield must be that yellow shield like thing in the screens we saw the other day. Regeneration field worries me just by the name.

I need to play this game, for better or worse. Damn!

Damn your cheap tactics! SMH.

 

[TheOddOne]

Dunno, I don't know what half of those AA's do and the rest I know are fine. Have to see them in action to give my verdict.

 

[Conor 419]

I am so worried about Vehicular combat in this game.

 

[Mister Negative]

He's watching us, and he's fucking with us.

Sup, MTW.

Referring to this, btw:

 

[Woorloog]

Regeneration field worries me just by the name.

Indeed. Regen in Halo 3 was the worst thing in that game... The Flare was amazing counter to it on some maps, a guy sitting in Regen but won't see anything was no danger.

 

[Fracas]

Lol I don't think anyone's mad at those who are excited for Halo 4.

Hell, I'm still excited. I'm just struggling to get hyped for multiplayer. Halo as we know it is gone. That's not to say this is going to be terrible. Just radically different.

 

[Karl2177]

Sigh.

 

[RebornYeti]

Hardlight shield must be that yellow shield like thing in the screens we saw the other day. Regeneration field worries me just by the name.

I'm thinking the Regeneration Field will be just like the Regenerator from Halo 3.

 

[bobs...onGaf]

A fair assumption given how Reach MLG played the hand it was dealt. If the faster gameplay rumours are to be believed, things could be much better.

I'm hoping MLG just gives everyone the same perks 'faster shield recharge' the same starting weapon and generally starts everyone off on the same footing, with that movement the game could be amazing.

It depends how customisable the game is, please be customizable enough for them to delete the fluff immediately.

Kinda sad that I'm hoping to strip away all the new features already lol.

 

[Fracas]

Someone dig up that old Halo 4 "leaked" pic from a few months ago, it was on like a mountain in campaign or something.

Was it real?

 

[Arnie]

Frank, can you push for an MLG playlist to be available at launch? I don't want to deal with autosentries and light shields.

 

[Garrett 2U]

In other news...
Less than a week until E3!
6 days, 23 hours, 11 minutes, 33 seconds
