Buck kills Chief.
Cortana becomes a robot.
You'll play as Sarah Palmer in Halo 6.
Halo 6 will be released on iOS and Android.
Don't give them any ideas.

It's a safe bet that Buck, Romeo and Macer are on Lockes team.
ODSTs never cared much for Spartan IIs. Now, for the first time ever, they finally get their chance, as Spartan IVs, to get their ass kicked by a team of Spartan IIs.

Will be interesting to see them without their helmets on, especially blue team.

That armor on the left is sick as hell. Man, I'm really liking the armor on Halo 5.
Also is there an updated picture with the chief's chest piece?

If we end up getting these armors plus others like the Athlon, etc. in multiplayer, then color me tickled pink. While I'm not a huge fan of the loadouts and such from 4, I loved having my own distinctive Spartan in-canon.

Looks like John's armor was repaired. The scar is gone, and those red arrows are new.
Have we forgotten this already?
ugh. from halofollower. blasphemy

The big question is if we'll see everyone without their helmets on.
It's time.

Is that a stolen illegal scan? Looks like it. Might want to take it down.

Well, we've already seen Kelly and Fred.
Better to leave the Chief's helmet on, IMO.

The people that have read the books already kind of know what Chief and the rest of Blue Team look like. I don't imagine that people that don't read the books are *dying* to know what Chief looks like.
I honestly won't care either way; but if they remove the helmets there better be a good reason to do so other than just to show their faces.
edit: oh, right, I remember those videos for Kelly and Fred in the pelican.
Probably everyone except Chief of course, think Halo: Reach.

I don't think we'll see chiefs face even if it was hinted at the ending of halo 5. We'll definitely see the likes of fred and kelly without there helmets though.

Scans. Self-advertisement. Anyone want to share their Halo podcast? Now's the time.

I hope when the final version will be ready, a clean version without logo will be available ^^

I've been trying to.
Basically, nothing rendered visually in Escalation can be considered canon, IMO. The writing, sure. Nothing else.
Otherwise, Arbiter is a sizechanger. And lots of other crap is whack to boot.

Oh, yea I remember them from FUD but I just meant in-game, as adults. Hope we do. I know seeing the Chief's face is a divisive prospect among fans but it wouldn't affect his persona to me. I'm ready to see the guy.We've already seen blue team without their helmets quite a few times
I just want to see how the Chief treats them too. I know he barely batted an eye to the Spartan IV's, it'll be great to see him treating Blue team with respect.

I have a continual internal debate over whether I want to see Cheifs face. Everyone else, sure...Him, I dunno. It's kind of the V for Vendetta thing. The idea is important, not the man.
And yes I know we saw bits of it in the end of Halo 4 and some of his eyeball in Escalation. Kind of hoping that's all we see.

Well we've seen younger real life variants of Kelly and Fred already, and we've seen MC's eyes and nose bridge.

Remember when Spartans and suits were designed so you couldn't tell them apart?
Good times.

I liked them all looking the same, or at least mostly the same, maybe small changes or something.
Now it seems a little overboard, but oh well.
That, and the stupid role mixup (Kelly the sniper? Come on) makes me cringe every time. But I have no problem with the faces, they look ok.
Every Spartan II should have about the same build regardless of gender, imo.

Looks silly, in retrospect.

Eh, that would be really stupid if you're bringing them into the game world.

Updated mine too:
Early on it was just a case of when you're testing new equipment, it's standardized. The R&D on Reach was barely past this point before it was "glassed." When you get more generations of (mostly) compatible gear, it gets mixed and matched for different purposes. That's even before personalization comes into play.
I've gotta admit, I liked when it was more "special future tech" and less "the whole military casually uses this stuff."

I guess it's cool that we get to see new types of armor instead of just reading about it and one could argue that a Sniper should have a different type of armor than a CQB specialist or Infiltrator, but the truth is that as soldiers they would need to look the same. It's a very effective form of psychological warfare when the enemy can't really tell your soldiers apart.
Also, as others have pointed out, I liked that Spartans were able to tell who everybody was just by the way they moved, and "outsiders" weren't able to.
Oy vey, I didn't even notice that. :/ Jesus fuck 343i, who oversees this shit? I'm glad I only read about the comics on Wikipedia.

What term did he use?
I haven't been able to figure it out, but I'm curious. People have asked on twitter, but he's been discrete about it.
