What's to be proud of? That Halo 5 exists?
Uh, no. (Not a huge fan of the FUD redesign, but that's more because of the canon issues it causes with size and layout.)
Maybe just misdirection. Them hips don't lie and neither does that hourglass waist. Although I guess looking more closely at Master Chief, he too does have a fine hourglass.

Boxart unveiled:
Amazing.
He's proud of the work that they've put in and that they've come this far. Now, with it being public, it's more appropriate to say that.
Would be kinda odd had he said that before it was revealed.
LOL! I like that.

Don't really get all the people who are like 'aw man, I wish it was a woman'.
I think it would have been cool if Cortana's AI was somehow put into a Spartan body and you could play along-side her or as her, instead of simply having her in your ear... but that's because of the fact that I like Cortana as a character, not because of her gender.
If the new character is interesting and adds to the universe, couldn't care what gender they are less.

I'm imagining Chief just standing there for a second, and then suddenly there's a fist through the other guy's helmet.

Do you think they might kill off Master Chief and have this new guy be the lead for the Halo series?

That they can now officially announce the project and the release date.
Guys what If the guy on the cover is this guy?
It is a new guy, Jun isn't new. Therefore, it is not Jun.
I haven't seen *every* post in this thread but I would have expected HaloGAF to cover me on this:
Could it be Kelly?
Or Linda?
or Fred?
I mean Bungie and subsequently 343 seem to have ignored Halo's extensive EU so it's probably me just being hopeful but given their attempt to move Chief into an actual character, bringing in the other 5 or so Spartan-IIs still alive (and last I believe doing shit for Halsey) would be a good direction. Plus I would finally like to see some more Spartan-IIs finally debut in the main line games.
edit: But it probably isn't cause the character on the cover is 1) Not in Mark-V MJOLNIR 2) Probably too short to be a Spartan-II so. Womp womp.

You know who that character should be?
THE MOTHERFUCKING ROOKIE
They should do a sequel to ODST. I loved that game
I read a comment on Xbox One Reddit that said the halo game we're getting this Fall is not Halo 2A but all the Halo games on one disc with one multiplayer mode. And it'd be called Halo: The Journey. I'd totally buy that. It was all just wishful thinking, but it makes a lot of sense.
So EDI (from ME3) pretty much?
Guys what If the guy on the cover is this guy?
Well, we don't technically know that he's dead.
Don't think he's the guy on the cover, but I'd love to see him return. <3 Jun.
Also Arby.
Come back to us, Arby!

The new character is obviously Cortana in physical form. Visor color is same color as Cortana.

The fact many thought that was a female and so wanted it to be proves they really need to start being more diverse with these shooters...though Halo will always be about Master Chief.
Cant wait, just hope that under that armor there is not some whiny kid. Also, I bet he is from the future or some shit like that.

Jun is well and alive, this has been confirmed in the comics.

Only if they treat it as a proper game from the start. Not an "expansion"

BUT HOMIE AIN'T A ROOKIE NO MORE
They already said it's not Cortana, though.
Lol I don't know if that was a typo or intentional but now I'm picturing a male Mexican version of Cortana called Cortano

It's the only explanation.

Pretty much, yeah. But Cortana is a much more significant character than EDI, and given her history living in the ear of a Spartan, it would be kind of fitting to see her ascend to a warrior in her own right.

It is in the thread title.
The new character is not Palmer, is not Cortana, is male, and is new character.
Yes. There was a tweet. "He" is a "new character"

Giving the presence of ponchos, Cortano sounds like a possible character.

Jun is Master Chief, though:
-Green
-Never see him die
-Doesn't talk much
-Green
-Knows what the ladies like
-Does sick no-scopes
-Has a cool black friend
-Green
-Jun=John, it's like they aren't even trying to hide it
The writing is on the wall

Yeah, I want Covenant/non-humans to be the player protags in Halo again. Moreover, I want different camera heights in order to better represent the differences between players. Imagine Arbiter as the same height as the taller, Predator-proportioned Reach Elites. I guess that would hurt balance since the crosshairs would probably be right at head-level for most human-sized enemies, particularly in MP... Actually, I miss higher camera heights for FPS games, in general, as most still feel like you're viewing the world from your chest. Rare is one of those few devs who made those camera heights more inline with the head of a character.

The Arbiter doesn't appreciate such insults.
EDIT:
-eh's a cool guy
-doesn't afraid of anything

That sure is some generic box art.
