Jetpack. The Thrusters just look like shoulder plates.

Yeah they do look nasty. No ground textures will ever be as good as Halo 1's blood gluch =P

I think the ground textures are fine for a BTB map, I just hope smaller outdoor maps have nicer ground textures

A flag "Ass"-ination would be even better. Do I have to tell you how that would work?
The sad thing is I don't know if this is a joke or not at this point.

scaled down to 720 (so native, and assuredly some quality lost in compression on my end)

Digging the new AA icons. They actually look like things now!

Hopefully we get a full layout of the map soon, next week's bulletin maybe? Definitely getting some vibes of Halo PC maps, which isn't a bad thing. A bit of Waterworks in there too.
I'd be willing to bet money that the Scorpion is replaced by the Wraith in matchmaking within a few months, though. Bungie made the same mistake multiple times with Scorpions in matchmaking and never learned from it either.
The Gauss seems much more tolerable, though. Projectile has a travel time closer to Halo 2's version and the rate of fire seems drastically slowed from the Reach variant.

So I want to say that back pack is the Thruster and not Jet Pack judging by these icons.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
Not fucking cool.
The irony is you watched this live..
I guess that's over and done with.
I just thought of something... Since we can assassinate with the oddball...
ODDBALLSASSINATION!

Nice troll, 4/10.
I'm not sure what's more insulting, the idea you think I'm that old, or the idea that you think I actually know who those people are.
On an ON topic note:
The sounds are certainly heavy hitting, hope there is an audio setting to tune sound effects, voice, music, etc. individually. Sound great, but for head phone users is going to be a LOT of sound. Guns look GOOD, as far as shooting goes, colors are amazing, graphics look very good to my eye, at least in terms of going back in an art direction that I really liked for Halo. I'm happy to see the Scorpion and Gauss in game play. I'm interested in seeing more footage, particularly of the flag carrier. In one clip he appeared to be moving at default speed, in another, it looked a bit slower - not enough to be able to tell for me. Can't stand the fact that this is yet another short snippet... I want Blops 2 levels of MP footage. The game is about to go gold in weeks for heavens sake.
The fact that people believe it says enough about the Halo 4 pre-order shenanigans.

So I'm not understanding the changes to CTF from this Broll footage.
Are we going to get an explanation from 343 or is Bravo going to be the first responder?

Come on now.. Who actually believed some bullshit like AA's as part of a preorder bonus.. If anyone believed it, it was only cuz of the moment of hype and they didn't really think about it.

Expect lots of info directly from us regarding updated game modes at tomorrow's Halo 4 panel.

Tashi's troll actually had me wondering. I thought it was funny once I realized it was fake, though I definitely don't blame David for being pissed.

You can hold the pistol while carrying the flag
You can assassinate people with the flag
It tells you on your screen when you have the flag.

That you folks at home can watch in approximately 3 weeks*!
*Will actually take about 1 month
And here I was thinking Huey Lewis...
I don't think lyterboy has any grounds to be pissed considering thats exactly the kind of bullshit they've been putting in Halo.
