== Falcon in Halo 4? ==
== Note to all editors ==


I don't believe it is a good idea to jump to conclusions so quickly that the Falcon is in Halo 4. Simple concept art does not always portray accurate information. For example, this concept art shows a banshee flying around:

As you can tell, this is not the same banshee as seen in any of the released game play videos of Halo 4. The same goes for the Falcon. We have not seen any game play of it, therefore, it cannot be confirmed, and should not be on Halo 4's vehicle list until confirmed.
== Mecha from the recent trailer ==
Is that really a Cyclops, as it's stated in the article now? It seems to be much bigger then the one from Halo Wars, and it could be a very different project. [[User talk:PatrickRus|PatrickRus]] 11:03, 5 March 2012 (EST)

The first sentence in Gamplay and design mentions that the last 2 installments in the reclaimer trilogy will be on the next generation console. I visited the source and it didn't mention that. Should that be deleted or was it confirmed somewhere else?


The Falcon is definitely not in the interactive game guide, But that might simply be because the player doesn't fly them. They might simply be in the background. [[User talk:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] 20:24, 4 November 2012 (EST)

::I might as well add, the UH-144 Falcon, or any Falcon aircraft thereof, is not at all mentioned anywhere in the ''Halo 4'' Prima Official Game Guide. No mention of it anywhere. Just zip, zero, nada. I think we can all safely assume with complete confidence that the Falcon does not make a return. A pity, honestly, that it didn't return. Not even the AV-14 Hornet either! I liked using both of those aircraft. Banshees are nice, but I like Falcons and Hornets better.

== MA5 ==
There's now in game evidence for the MA5, not that I thought they'd remove the AR. First is the game mode seen in the trailer is "BR Slayer", meaning the BR is not the starting weapon. More importantly, the ammo counter on the HUD shows four bullets on the top row when the BR is full, meaning one full bar is 32 rounds. Perfect for the standard weapon. :) Also, the H4 BR's stock looks like the DMR, the pistol grip and bottom of the front end looks like the H3 BR, and the carry handle and rest of the top doesn't look very close to anything (other than being a large FAMAS style carry handle again) EDIT: Actually, in first person it reminds me a lot of Crysis's SCAR. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 02:10, 6 March 2012 (EST)


== After-credits speech by Didact ==
I thought it was already confirmed seeing as the figure had an MA5 rifle[[User talk:Jac0bBau3r1995|Jac0bBau3r1995]] 08:44, 6 March 2012 (EST)


It mentions in this article that the speech that the Didact gives happens following the events of Halo 4, and assumes it is him vowing further action on humanity.  After hearing it a couple of times, I am now convinced that this speech actually is from the Didact speaking to the ecumene counsel regarding is punishments to prehistoric humans in the aftermath of the Forerunner-Human war more than 100,000 years ago.  Evidence includes him citing victory (against prehistoric humans, because surely what happened at the end of Halo 4 was not a victory).  He also uses plural pronouns when referencing Forerunners, and furthermore uses "we" and "our" as if he is talking to other Forerunners, which would be unlikely in 2557.  Overall, when taking it from that context, it makes much more sense.  The article should be changed to reflect this, and should not make the assumption of saying that the Didact apparently survived based on the fact that he gives this speech. - Extron
:True, but I was just pointing out some in-game stuff. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 14:21, 6 March 2012 (EST)
::Wouldn't BR Slayer mean ''Battle Rifle Slayer'', and why would it not be the starting weapon if that is what the name of the game is?--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}}


:It depends. The parts about "I stand before you" does sound like a council or trial, but the part of "We squander eons in the darkness, while they seize our triumphs for their own" sounds like after the Halos' firing. It's hard to be sure.

I think he ment that if there's BR slayer then that would be a speciel type of slayer therefore normal slayer would have AR as starter. [[User talk:Jac0bBau3r1995|Jac0bBau3r1995]] 17:08, 6 March 2012 (EST)


Though I do admit that line is a bit harder to understand, I would still posit that the majority of the lines make much more sense under the context of the Didact before the events of Halo 4.  There are many more lines that don't make sense if he was speaking after the events of Halo 4 than lines that don't make sense if he was speaking to the ecumene council after the Human-Forerunner war.  For example, in 2557, who would be accusing him of sin? - Extron
== More Screenshots ==
:I agree. I was going to make a similar post before seeing yours. I also think that the speech took place some time before the Didact was imprisoned. Since it's not 100% clear though, I think the article should be changed so that it does not make an implication one way or the other.--[[User talk:Olanmills|olanmills]] 03:51, 26 November 2012 (EST)
I have a quick question. I know we have several development screenshots posted under the article (others posted under "Making Halo 4: First Look" article) but should a seperate page be made for more screenshots (similar to the concept art)? This [http://www.computerandvideogames.com/338472/halo-4-84-gameplay-screenshots/ site] has 84 screenshots available. Just a quick thought. [[User talk:Killamint|Killamint]] 17:07, 7 March 2012 (EST)


it does seem very likely but however if you do an analysis of what the didact says during the cutscene on the level forerunner he not only talks to the chief, he also talks to the librarian, well parts of his little speech is directed to her. So what the didact says during the last scene of halo 4 may be before or after the events, we do not know but we can only speculate, we may find out in later forms of media or will have to wait till halo 5 [[User:SPARTAN-225|S225]] 01:03 27th November 2012 (PST)

==The ''Halo 4'' Official Game Guide==
== Covie, and assassinations are back and  the Cyclopes is only scenery  ==


Shouldn't we now have a page for the ''Halo 4'' Prima Official Game Guide, since it has already come out in stores? I got my copy at Wal-Mart for 10x4, a limited collector's edition. I did see some regular ''Halo 4'' Prima Official Game Guides for 25. But I assume you all must already know this. So should we now include a new article for the game guide, too? Seeing as I own a copy, I should be the one to write the article, but I'm honestly not sure I'd do a very good job of it. If anyone else also owns it besides myself could write it, then all the better, I suppose. Still, if no one doesn't, or if they do, but don't want to do it, I suppose I'll have to man up and do it myself. Just be forewarned: as I've said, I might not do a very good job. --[[User:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] ([[User talk:Xamikaze330|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|contribs]]) 20:36, 11 November 2012 (EST)Xamikaze330

Since it was stated that the games takes place 5 years after the end of Halo 3 it would be approximately 2558 (2553 + 5 = 2558).

:Wait until 343i says so.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}}
Actually 343i stated that Cortana is 7 years old in Halo 4. She was "born" in 2549. This places the game in Fall 2556-2557, shortly or sometime after Origins.
Now according to Kiki Wolfkill, the game takes place 5 years after Halo 3. This places the game in 2557. http://www.gametrailers.com/video/interview-story-halo-4/727566
[[user talk:ADinoSupremacist|ADinosupremacist]]
:Okay, it can can be 2557 if we consider December 11, 2552, the date of the last battle in Halo 3 and supposibly when MC entered the cryo tube. You add 5 years to that and you get December 11, 2557 (Which can still be 2558 since January is right around the coner). However, to me the true ending of Halo 3 was March 3, 2553, when the memorial service was held. Add 5 years to that and you get March 3, 2558. So I belive Halo 3 ended in 2553, not 2552 as your implying. --[[User talk:Killamint|Killamint]] 16:50, 18 March 2012 (EDT)
Just because it's 5 years after the Chief went into cryo doesn't mean that it will take place 2556-2557. For all we know there could be some slipspace time travel stuff where the Chief was sent back into the past and Halo 4 takes place in 2553. [[User talk:ADinoSupremacist|ADinoSupremacist]]


:::The 2nd and 3rd pics are the same ships, just taken from a different angle. I believe they lack bulk and two engines because it may have been too much texture size/memory trying to have these multiple 1600+ ft long ships flying around at close range, so they reduced size and bulk to relieve memory. So it looks like a Charon but lacks the mass & engine count.

Like what was said [[Talk:Halo_4#Note_to_all_editors|before]] please refrain from making unnecessary edits and edits without citations/references (proof as I call it) to this article. Also remember to use the preview function before saving the page. Yes I agree the, ''UNSC Infinity'' & ''Pelicans'' will probably/most likely be in the game based off the concept art but concept art does not constitute an appearance, just wait for 343 to state its in the game. We are anxious for more info on the game but seriously, have patience. Also understand the difference between "speculation" and "facts"- "''As well when looking closely at the images of the Master Chief in halo 4 it is noteable that both of the master chief's index fingers have no armor from the second knuckle to the tip of the finger.

So far several things have already been associated with Halo 4 that are not listed on this page. For example, the UNSC Infinity and the Pelican are seen associated with Halo 4. The Infinity is from the Halo 4 panel and the Pelican has been seen several times throughout concept art. While this does not officially mean that they will be in the game (though I'm sure the Pelican will be) they should at the moment be listed on the appearances like this:
*''[[UNSC Infinity]]'' {{C|Concept art only}}
*''[[Pelican]]'' {{C|Concept art only}}
They're already on the Halo 4 page in the gallery section, so why not in the appearances? [[User talk: ADinoSupremacist|ADinoSupremacist]]
:The same reason as to why we don't include Rosenda-344 in ''Halo: Reach'' even though she's in several concept arts during the development Halo Reach.

I have a couple of suggestions for new articles.
:If it really isn't backwards compatible with XBox 360 then they'll have to if they want to continue Spartan Ops. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] ([[User talk:SFH|talk]]) 20:02, 21 May 2013 (EDT)
343i has stated that the Chief gets new armor. So at the moment there should be a page about the new armor system. While I firmly believe it's the Mark VII, it should be named "Unnamed MJOLNIR system" or something like that.
::At present there are no plans for another season of Spartan Ops on the 360. When season 2 does come, it will be in ''Halo 5'', not ''Halo 4''. Because the system won't be backwards compatible, it would essentially require the same effort as porting it to the PC, which would divert manpower away from the next ''Halo'' title, or else require them to use a third-party studio to do the job. The two consoles will also use different versions of Xbox LIVE, meaning online play won't cross platforms. This would effectively split the community as early adopters switch to the new console, while others continue to play on the 360. 343 has already shown they don't like doing this, which is why they chose to use ''Halo: Reach'''s multiplayer for ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary''. So, short answer: No. There has been no information on any ''Halo 4'' re-release, and in my opinion, that's because there won't be one, at least not any time soon.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px|bottom]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty'''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''-'''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112'''</span>]] [[Halopedia:Administrators|<span style="color:red; font-family:Arial">'''''Admin'''''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Rusty-112|<font color="blue">'''comm'''</font>]]</sup> 21:02, 21 May 2013 (EDT)

Has it been confirmed that Spartan Ops won't be coming back on 360? The way I understood it was that Spartan Ops was going to take up the time between the games and the games were going to come out every two years. So if that is accurate there is all the time between now and fall of next year for season two and maybe even a third to come out if second season comes out this fall and season three in the summer then four five and six can fill the gap between Halo 5 and 6.

They really wrapped things up nicely/wrote themselves into a corner by destroying Requiem, and with it nearly all of the in-game environments. They'd need to start from scratch for a new season, setting up a whole new location for the conflict. Any time they spend on that is time not spent on ''Halo 5'', and they've already got a pretty tight deadline on ''5''. Remember that Bungie had 3 full years between their proper installments (not including ''ODST'', which reused the engine and assets from ''3''). If we're correct, and the next ''Halo'' is scheduled for Q4 2014, that means 343 is being asked to create a whole new game on a whole new console in only 2 years. That's a pretty tall order. That's why I think they pushed out the map packs so quickly. The last ''Halo 3'' map pack was released two years after the game. ''Reach'''s Anniversary pack was 14 months after the game. Yet 343 released all 3 of ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s packs in just 5 months. I believe that's because they immediately started on ''Halo 5''. I'm not saying definitively that there will be no ''Halo 4'' on the Xbox One, or that there will be no second season of Spartan Ops for ''Halo 4''.

:Frankie has [http://www.gamereactor.eu/news/19161/Halo+4%3A+Frank+O%27Connor+Interview/ stated] that the fictional explanation for the "new" armor won't be as major as a switch of generation. That, along with information from the ''Halo 4'' art director in a bulletin from a while ago suggests it's merely a redesign of the Mark VI, even if there's some kind of a canon explanation thrown in. Regardless, it's pointless to make a new article about it yet. We've done fine without one so far, so a few months' wait won't really matter.

:They look different because they are drawn differently by different artists of different studios without any close supervision or close support from one another.

Indeed, what Subtank says is true. However, that is only one of the real-world reason for all of these differing depictions. Another reason is that when those iterations were made and implemented, the time, context, etc. were different from how things are now. The Cole Protocol image was made by Bungie during the time frame of both Halo 3: ODST's and Reach's development cycles, and could very well have come out of some of the concept art for Reach, though that is course only speculation at best. The Halo Wars iteration, of course, was done by Blur Studios and Ensemble, drawing on the Mark VI image and some aspects of the Mark V for inspiration.
 
Given these kinds of facts, and that there was no effort on serious oversight and communication between these 3 parties at those time frames, it was unavoidable that there would be conflicting visuals to appear. But on the other hand, if there really had been such cooperation and oversight, would that really have worked out as one might have hoped? Would there really be '''any''' guarantee that we would be shown logical, reasonable additions to the canon? Would things really be as harmonious as some might hope, or might things have actually been '''worse'''?
 
Cross-company and artist cooperation never truly guarantees quality content; it only offers the possibility. All of those companies, even Bungie, can and are prone to poorly-chosen and implemented, even incompetent, decisions. Given that things have turned out the way they are now, there is no way of knowing if things would have been different had they been done with such a collaborative process. We can only wonder, conjecture, speculate, and debate.
 
In any event, back on to this topic, all of the facts have given me the impression of one possibility; John-117's "new" armor is a kind of upgraded, "hybrid" Mark VI armor, composed of components, software, and armor segments from multiple sources. Or in other words, his armor internally remains the same or similar to what it was before, but new pieces and components, maybe even related to the Mark VII, have been added to his armor to improve its performance in some areas. All previous generations of SPARTAN-used MJOLNIR have had upgrades, customizations, etc. of one sort or another, including ones similar to this.
 
In that 'Game Reactor' interview with Mr. O'Connor, he does emphasize the fact that there '''is''' an in-universe, genuine change in John's armor, meaning that its external appearance from its issuing in October 2552 to its current appearance is not mere artistic license at all. This also reinforces the fact that the Mark VI as we have known it for the past several years, particularly Halo 3, '''is how it is meant to look.''' That is its genuine structure and appearance when it is first issued, without any customizations, modifications, or upgrades.
 
Now that years have passed since then, and the situation and context have changed, there is a true, in-universe need for the armor to be upgraded, particularly to the form it has now. For how the suit is improved, we can only wonder and/or wait for the facts to become known. But whatever the case, it now seems very unlikely, '''in my opinion''', that John is wearing true Mark VII armor. On the other hand, from the aesthetic and gameplay point of view, these differences will be prominently displayed in how he moves in the play spaces, from impressions of weight, sound, etc. to better convey the simulation-based experience.--[[User talk:Exalted Obliteration|Exalted Obliteration]] 17:36, 4 April 2012 (EDT)
 
Just my two cents: If the game opens up with the chief immediately after getting out of cryo, like we were led to believe in the reveal trailer, then the change to the armor will happen in-game. There was no way for cortana to modify it while he was in cryo. Speaking plot-wise, it would seem more convenient for him to get a completely new suit of armor later in the game, but that is pure speculation.

Arright, this has bothered me since the people started freaking out over the armor those many months ago: what I can gather he meant by "less canonical explanation" is this: when the Cheif wakes up, he's wearing the Mk. VI, as could be expected. Aftermthe crash, Cortana shows him the Mk. VII, located on the Forward Unto Dawn, and basically says "happy birthday, John, here ya go!" That way, we know where he got it in general, but we don't have any "just came in from Songsam this morning" like in Halo 2. Soooo, yeah. That's what I think will happen.

The Spartan-IVs seen in ''First Look'' are probably wearing the Mark VII, which is completely different from the one the Chief was wearing. The one Chief is wearing resembles the one in Halo 3.

Might he get it from the Infinity?[[User talk:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] 22:25, 5 April 2012 (EDT)
 
My theory is that he does get it form the Infinity. It's been confirmed over and over again that the UNSC is in Halo 4. Now the Spartan-IVs and the Chief do have different armor, but there are similarities such as the ab area/codpiece. I believe that the armor will be far more customizable than it is in previous Halo titles.
Anyway there is a possible canonical reason as to why the Halo Wars and Cole Protocol Mark IV look different but I will discuss that on the Mark IV discussion page in a moment.
343i has already shown in Origins (which takes place shortly before Halo 4) that the Chief is still wearing Mark VI. Why would they change something that they have even shown? It would also confuse too many casual players as to why he looks different. I still believe that he will get the new armor from the UNSC Infinity. 343i has slowly been revealing the Mark VII to be real. First Halsey's Journal, then Glasslands. Also Frank has said Glasslands will have connections with Halo 4, the Mark VII may be one of them.
If this Ancient Evil is worse than the Covenant, I'm sure he's going to need a new suit. [[User:ADinoSupremacist|ADinoSupremacist]]

Well then I'll just have to say what's in the new GI. Basically there's a new weapon called the "Assault Carbine." The Covenant Carbine is returning along with the Energy Sword. A bunch of regular UNSC weapons are returning such as Sniper, Rocket Launcher, etc. The new DMR is revealed and it looks very much different yet similar to it's Reach counterpart. IT does have a very unique looking scope. --[[User talk:ADinoSupremacist|ADinoSupremacist]] 21:15, 6 April 2012 (EDT)
 
:Are we allowed posting ''links'' to scans? If not, well, they're not hard to find anyway. After how ugly the DMR was in Reach, I actually quite like the looks in this game. Interestingly, it has the alternating triangle patterns on the rear of the body, like the BR55. Some MA5 pics too, looks just like the one the MacFarlane toys figure has.

== Unidentified variants fix ==
 
So with all the new unidentified variants, I suggest they all be placed in an order like this
 
*Unidentified Variants
**Rocket Launcher
**Assault Rifle
**DMR
**etc

That looks good. [[User talk:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] 15:10, 7 April 2012 (EDT)
 
== Co-Op characters revealed? ==
 
It just dawned on me that the Elites from the Game Informer issue on Halo 4 might be the two Elites from Halo 3's co-op. The Spec-Ops looking Elite has the same colored armor as the Spec-ops one from Halo 3, a color no other SO Elite wears. --[[User talk:ADinoSupremacist|ADinoSupremacist]] 04:19, 7 April 2012 (EDT)
 
:That'd be pretty cool, as they have names and backstory. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 13:19, 7 April 2012 (EDT)
 
== The Appearances section needs to be updated. ==
 
Unidentified Forerunner planet needs to be renamed "Requiem", Unggoy need to be added to the races and Type 51- Carbine to weapons. [[User talk:ArchedThunder|ArchedThunder]] 18:56, 7 April 2012 (EDT)
