All the little touches on the HUD are really doing it for me, I'm loving all the faint numbers surrounding it and I really dig that they kept the thin outline of chief's helmet. Should be really interesting to see what the other seven HUD's look like.
Check his wiki article
dude's been busy.

Saw this 343 art on Twitter
Check out Fred's gun in this image. Looks vaguely DMR like but stubbier, bigger scope, and bigger pistol grip.

Materials look a lot better in this shot, still looks pretty mushy though.
What is hellghast:/
Looks like that Grunt saw Linda's butt.
Don't know why they went with this design. Looks so ugly, imo.

It's interesting how their eyes have very slowly been getting farther apart as these games go on.

If i didnt miscount, resolution should be in the 900p range.
Would be nice, if somebody better at "pixel counting" could verify though
Because it's not.

It looks ridiculously ugly, but they're also aliens, so ugly kinda makes sense.
Wait. Buck is a Spartan now?
Bam, said the lady

Where did it came from?
I would assume this is a Halsey render:
Looks good.
Eeeh, Grunts looked cute from Halo 1 - Reach. And Aliens really don't have to be ugly all the time.

Poor doctor Halsey. I literally hope she gets a Kat arm and then uses it to crush Osman/Spartan Palmer.

Ever since you could pop off their masks grunts have not been cute imo.
This is a really nice screenshot:
Looks way better than Halo 4.
I do like that it's differentiated from elites and jackals more. Halo 4 went a little homogenized with the Covie designs. Can't wait to see what Greenskull said about Lekgolo forming hunters right on the spot. Would be terrifying to go down a dark corridor, see a bunch of these worms transform into an ODST style Hunter right behind you etc.

Looks like Halo 4 in terms of art style of course but details and such gives it a Halo 4 ++

Thanks for that!

A nice detail I spotted.
This Elite has the Halo 4 style skin
This Elite has the Halo 4 style skin
The skin on this Elite's shoulder and hand are exposed and he has a more classic, dark skin
looks like they will have some physical diversity.

Why does she have pens in that arm pocket if she doesn't have the arm necessary to get them? Does she ask for help every time she needs to write something?

I like how those elites have their guns on their backs like the spartans usually do, it's a detail normally forgotten in games and the AI would just switch gun or have only one weapon and nothing else.

When did she lose her arm?
At the end of Spartan Ops

I didn't even notice that. Did elites carry more than one weapon in previous games?
Spartan Ops. I'd suggest watching the cutscenes on YouTube or something. Story is interesting.
At the end of Spartan Ops.
Palmer shoots her in the arm, and it's revealed in the ending she had to cut it off to survive.
I recently decided to play all the Halos in order since Halo 5 got me so hyped up. I guess I'm also going to have to play through Spartan Ops...
[edit]
Does Sparaton Ops get better? I played the first "episode 1" when it first came out and it was unbelievably boring. Never bothered playing any after that.
*cat holding newspaper*
"I need to finish Spartan Ops"
It's a little weird but those pens totally look reachable with her right hand unless she has a limited range of motion.
Just watch the cutscenes

Play with some friends, it's a pretty good time.
Sure, but personally I don't want them to change the art style with every iteration. But looking at the environment and armor you can clearly see the upgrade from Halo 4.
Pre-order cancelled.
Also since thats not the Didact, is that our first new at the new big bad? Almost looks animalistic, like it has a snout. Kinda wolf like.

You're right I could totally reach them, but I'm a twenty year old and she's 66. Her joint's probably hurt at least a little. Ah fuck it, we're putting too much thought into the placement of pens, the model looks great and that's what counts.

Mendicant Bias tho ...
Was thinking the exact same thing. Which probably says less about the character since its partly obscured, and more about what I've been spending far too much time playing.

New baddie is Geralt confirmed.
Final Verdict

But a lot of that power is already going to 60fps, and getting as close to 1080p as possible. Then on top of that, they are probably doing a lot more open world level design to accommodate bigger battles and what not....
I'm just saying that we should keep our expectations in check.
I agree, the artstyle is very similar, but I do notice a lot of subtle improvements to the lighting and what not. Also the ingame character models should be a big improvement over last gen.
So far I am content with what we have seen. The most important thing to me is whether or not the gameplay and level design will be as good as they are making it sound. I love the idea of making the levels less linear.
