It's s new character named Tanaka.

I like her armor the best especially her helmet and visor.

EDIT: And she's Blasian, interesting...

 

[Bsigg12]

Literally the same face I made when I read that post.

 

[jem0208]

Btw not sure if already noticed but that DMR on the Blue Team Screenshot has no Scope...

Yeah, I've posted it twice now and it seems to have slipped by.

 

[Varjis]

This has been a dream of mine since playing Republic Commando.

This.

 

[The Flash]

Maybe we'll find out what happened to Sev

 

[Einchy]

The character models look great.

 

[Cyborg]

Didn't know Nathan Fillion was involved

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

I can't. I can't. Playing with Blue team will change everything. We no longer are a solo soldier, we will be a team with Chief's most trusted allies. A cohesive unit in Halo. I cannot contain my hype!

 

[Akai__]

I wouldn't be surprised if they were the in engine, cut scene models. Consider how amazing Halo 4 looked on the 360 3 years ago.

Halo 4's cutscene were real time and looked already pretty good. Those look like the natural evolution comming with better tech. Looks really good.

 

[DATABASE DATABASE]

This has been a dream of mine since playing Republic Commando.

Same here. I also want a Battlefront-style Halo game.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Everything is in engine, as will everything we show at E3.

I think some sweet mammaries are going to be made at E3 this year!

 

[Vico]

I thought Macer was the female spartan from Osiris? Wasn't it confirmed?

 

[Forerunner]

Everything is in engine, as will everything we show at E3.

 

[Munki]

Pls be like Republic Commando. pls.

Now I hope the entire teams makes it to the end.

I pray that they don't f*ck with Blue Team... So many hardcore Halo fans have waited so long to see them finally make it into a game.

 

[cool_dude]

Super cool bits of info! Can't see how everything unfolds between the two teams.

 

[godhandiscen]

They're in the Escalation comics together. Takes place after Halo 4 and they help take down the Didact again. The art is pretty poor in most of them but it's there.

WTF is this shit?

PS: I still own my copy of the Halo graphic novel.

 

[Lakitu]

When will the digital issue hit?

 

[Grief.exe]

Xbox is going to have a killer fall.

 

[EroticSushi]

When will the digital issue hit?

Later today.

 

[KDC720]

If 343 is actually taking some influence from Republic Commando's squad mechanics, oh my goodness right into my veins.

 

[Stinkles]

Well then you also have the first appearance of Benjamin Giraud.

 

[Rocketz]

 

[Random17]

Graphic Novel>>>Escalation.

Thankfully Huntthetruth is good, so I have some faith in the current bunch of 343i writers.

 

[jelly]

There is a Halo 4 video that has a free floating camera for cutscenes etc. Really impressive from 343 that it wasn't tightly directed cutscenes. I can't seem to find it though.

 

[solis74]

Yes yes yesssssssssssssss

 

[bumpkin]

Didn't know Nathan Fillion was involved

That was exactly what I was going to say... Uncanny valley, much?

 

[GreyWind]

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

So. Where can we find the images without the game informer logo. I need a new wallpaper :<

 

[Einchy]

Locke is looking good, too.

 

[FunkyDealer]

Locke is looking Barbie-doll-smooth. Hopefully he'll look more realistic in-game.

 

[aHebrewMenagerie]

Here's a cool background for ya'll, taken from the GameInformer site source:

 

[Raide]

Yeah, something like that would be cool. Would be neat to see them battling it out in the distance, seeing Warhogs down belowe while the other team is on higher ground or even Banshees above clearing the path.

The shot shows jumping out of plane, so hopefully the co-op splits us up and then causes you to parachute back into the battle to help when it all goes crazy!

 

[ironcreed]

Nice.

 

[jem0208]

An interesting detail someone noticed on Reddit:

[PhatSaqs]

[The Dear Leader]

Didn't know Nathan Fillion was involved

He played Buck in ODST also, it's cool to see the character make a return.

This info has me way more excited for Halo 5.

 

[16BitNova]

I started this trailer with my pants on. Where are my pants?

 

[Einchy]

There's nothing uncanny about his model.

fuuuuuck

next week is so hype

 

[Obliterator]

Everything is in engine, as will everything we show at E3.

This level of hype I'm feeling is consuming my soul bro

 

[jelly]

If 343 is actually taking some influence from Republic Commando's squad mechanics, oh my goodness right into my veins.

About time someone did!

 

[0.1.1.2.3.5.8.13.21.34.55]

Is that Drake?

 

[failgubbe]

Don't know man, just can't trust 343 after Halo 4. The shit with Chief being hunted and a traitor sounds so bad. That said i will buy the game but i think i probably won't like this new Halo that 343 is creating

 

[farisr]

Now we know the real reason ODST on Xbone was released.

 

[Glass]

Getting hyped for the campaign but also remembering how much I enjoyed the multiplayer beta has reminded me how great a package deal Halo games are.

Add Forge, theatre mode (presumably) ... I'm going to spend so much time with the One's screenshot function alone.

 

[hwalker84]

I wish this was on PC/Windows 10. That would make my E3. Especially with that new XBO wireless controller adapter.

The port begging never ends. But honestly do you really want 343i working on a PC version and Xbox One version after MCC?

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Not sure why this isnt mentioned:

Our lengthy hands-on sessions also included plenty of time in the revamped competitive Arena multiplayer. In the cover story, we break down specific changes to the Empire map from last winter's beta and we debut a never-before-seen map called Fathom. This undersea base looks gorgeous and is loaded with all kinds of hidden tricks for experienced players to dig in and discover. 343 also teases a new multiplayer mode never seen in a Halo game before. Read about all this and more in the latest issue of Game Informer.

 

[link1201]

Wow, very exciting E3 can't come soon enough. Is there a way to buy this issue digitally?

 

[GreatLord Tiger]

Blue team, Buck, and Republic Commando. This is all coming together nicely. Can't wait for what they show at E3.

 

[jelly]

Please make skydiving game play, not a cutscene. Imagine landing were you want then kicking arse. Oh yes. Hope BTB is like that as well.
