Welcome spartan!
I was constantly told to wait to see and that I don't know everything just yet. In one case I got a "Hey, this guy thinks he knows who the enemy is! lol" responses. They were being nice about it and telling me the main enemy will be great but that I also don't know everything that is going on quite yet.
Then again it could be they want to throw me off even though I could be right. Either way I am happy they told me I don't know everything because it just raised my hype.

Was the yellow Spartan IV equipped with the ODST helmet on purpose? At least Alienshogun does not have to ask anymore.

I know it's visually represented and it may come in to play at really long range distances, but I never felt like a kill was stolen from me by the mechanic. Bloom never seemed to get in the way. In fact I was starting to like the DMR more than the BR.

While yes, bloom is rather annoying and random, how would you propose to balance a fast-shooting, 2x zoom Pistol?
Halo 2 had a fast but weak Pistol that took way too many shots to kill.
Halo 3 had a slow, no zoom, 5 shot Pistol to kill.
IMO, they should make the Pistol 12 shots, 6 shots to kill but it shoots like the ODST one and has a 2x scope. IDK, at this point in Halo the Pistol has become obsolete over the years (which is sad) and the one we know from Halo 1 was just reskinned into a rifle (DMR/BR (the role it played in the sandbox)).

HNGGGGG, ODST helmet was in that CTF assassination video. Thank you based Frankie/Ellis.
Just get good teammates who can carry you and just stay in the back shooting from a distance.

More stuf, though not necessarily continuing what you saw in The Commissioning.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like this whole "ancient enemy" thing is so convoluted by now because of how often they've changed their minds (or so it seems like)? The first mention of the ancient enemy led everyone to immediately think of the Precursors, but other people felt confused because Cortana refers to The Flood as the "Ancient Enemy" in Origins.
Debunked when Frankie confirmed no Flood.
Then all this hype about the big reveal of this threat to be shown at E3 only for 343 to say the ancient enemy has yet to be revealed..
Basically confirms the Didact isn't the ancient evil?
Now this news that we'll be shocked at the ancient evil?
So definitely not the Didact? Maybe back to the Precursors showing up?
My head's spinning now as to what this reveal will be like :b which I guess is a good thing to keep it a surprise!
..just sounds like the Bungie run-around all over again lol but I digress..
This panel was absolutely amazing. I can't wait to play Halo 4. At 1st, I really had doubts that Halo 4 will be amazing, but from what I've seen so far, I'm just impressed. Keep your food work up and I wish you the best for Halo 4, 343i. May the game brake several records.
Now I'm too hyped to sleep, but I have to wake up in a few hours, lol.
One more question about the trailer at the beginning. Is this the same trailer which is airing on the 27th or will the ViDoc air on 27th?

Ellis, you guys dun gud.
Panel was very interesting. I'm pumped out of my pants now, I honestly believe that we'll have the best Campaign to date, and possibly, the best Halo game period.
Cool, thanks.

Is it attached to any particular movies?

Oh dear...
But is it the same as in the panel or is it something different, I don't get it.
Lower the aim assist. Don't make it random and spammy.
Judging by Reach's playlists, thats a huge stretch.

Edit: Whoops, Ryaaan14 beat me to it. Frankie DOES look just like Lobot.
I only watched about a minute of the gameplay - I can only watch so much off screen stuff - but I really liked what I saw. Very fast, fluid, intense gameplay. My body is ready, etc.
Hope it's playable at PAX, they'll have to pry the controller away.

I figured you would be going insane with the amount of episodes just in season 1.
Also with the whole loadout being good for both, it's like they designed it for you.

My car just became the coolest car in town.
I'm hesitant to celebrate, because historically it's hard to maintain a high quality bar on that volume of content. If they pull it off, it will be something very special. Right now my hopes are calibrated to hope for a fun story through the series, and a handful of very replayable gems.
I'm used to Reach which has ten Firefight maps and ~3-4 good ones.

My biggest worry is the netcode.
I guess I'm lucky in the sense that I usually have people nearby to play with.
But I would still want a better netcode.

I don't think there's any harm in sharing this. We, as designers, deterine whether or not phantoms shoot or not.
Some of the ones in my missions do, some don't.
What? The Q&A was pretty good. Have you watched the RTX one?
Edit: Oh my god 1st post on this site...

You should watch the Assassin's Creed panel.
"Is Desmond (the main character) in it?"
The people giving the answers actually looked at each other and started laughing at that one. Situations like that one happened more than once during that panel.
