Popular Post Adam91 Posted April 7, 2012 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 (edited) Here is a new picture of cortana from the game informer magazine, now if you see it looks alot different than the art piece released the other day. I think this new image of cortana is alot better than the other art piece we seen. This picture looks close enough to in game footage (i know its not in game but you know what i mean). I was a bit worried when i seen the the art picture of cortana the other day but this new pic has eased that worrying feeling, to me it looks like she is going back to an image that would suit a halo 4 cortana but its still not quite there yet but i am very happy with this image of her. http://s17.postimage...h/h4cortana.jpg Update: here are images from game informer magazine. http://i1069.photobu...0Informer/5.jpg there is dialogue between master chief and cortana also thers a part that explains the chief forcing a doorway open when escaping the forward unto dawn like what we seen in the first look vidoc in this link but as i said the text is going about as fake -http://i1069.photobu...0Informer/6.jpg talks about MC stumbling across covenant rouges also mentions that the shield world we see in the teaser is called "requiem" -http://i1069.photobu...0Informer/7.jpg It stated that requiem (the shield world) was able to protect everything inside against the firing if the halo array-http://i1069.photobu...0Informer/8.jpg It says that MM will be called infinity featuring the UNSC infinity ship-http://i1069.photobu...0Informer/9.jpg It talks about how halo 4 will will have gameplay-changing upgrade to their character for MM like COD or BF also the new feature "spartan op's" something like bonus mission that come out each week that tells a story about the UNSC Infinity -http://i1069.photobu...Informer/10.jpg http://i1069.photobu...pg?t=1333791360 Talks about armor abilities, sprint being a standard ability that can be used anytime and talks about the new "forerunner vision" also states about a FFA playlist called "regicide"-http://i1069.photobu...pg?t=1333791360 http://i1069.photobu...pg?t=1333791360 States that elites are not playable in MM-http://i1069.photobu...pg?t=1333791360 Update: Frank O'Connor's response to game informer- http://halocouncil.c...-Info-on-Neogaf "The magazine scans were always going to come out the day after the cover debuted, that almost always happens. We can't talk about the story in detail, because it is GI's exclusive. I will say that some of the things that "invested, emotional" players are "raising eyebrows slightly at" are being very misinterpreted ("random" weapon spawns for example) but we will be able to clarify some of those things in due time. Some of the other features, abilities, are also being discussed with no context (not your guys' fault, obviously) and frankly, a video of TS would probably allay many of the especially hysterical reactions, but we're not there yet. We haven't seen a single reaction we didn't expect (apart from the Dax love story) and we will clarify a lot of this stuff 100% in the coming weeks and months. SOME of the things in here won't be properly understood outside of a holistic experience (modes, progress, fictional setting, etc) but I am going to say one thing and leave it at that: It feels like Halo, it does NOT feel or act like the other game(s) it's being compared to. Again, without playing it, you can't be blamed for jumping to certain conclusions." Update: David Ellis' response to fans on neogaf-http://halocouncil.c...-Fans-On-Neogaf David Ellis (multiplayer designer at 343i) responds to fans on Neogaf about the changes from the May issue of GameInfromer. "For those expecting a podcast release this weekend, don't. All of the information you're getting at this point is from leaked scans of the GI article. As is the case with all cover stories, the magazine needs to start hitting more hands before we offer full clarifications. I will say this, some of the conclusions that are being reached are not entirely accurate. Some of the mp items mentioned in the story have changed since the media visit. I can't really say too much more at this time, but please be patient while we begin clarifying and answering questions in the near future. As Frank has said previously, we knew some elements of the Halo mp evolution would be controversial in some circles, while many others would be less so. Keep in mind that none of these design decisions have been made lightly, but have been carefully thought out and continue to be tweaked based on feedback from people playing the game. And yes, Spartan Ops is as awesome as it sounds. Can't wait to share more." Update: Pushing the xbox to the limit, the technical side of halo 4-http://www.oxm.co.uk...running-halo-4/ 343 Industries' Frank O'Connor has revealed that the company is pushing the console hardware to the limit with the upcoming Halo 4. "We're out of space, we're out of horsepower, we're out of everything," he told us at Microsoft's Spring Showcase event in San Francisco. "If you're doing your best work that machine should be exhausted when you're done, and we're getting there." "I think the clever thing to do is make your trade-offs early and then go over what you intend to do, and that's where we are now." The results are undeniably spectacular. Our brief glimpse of Halo 4 multiplayer at the showcase, including a trailer that's arriving on Halo Waypoint very soon, showed visuals that look noticeably superior to 2010's Halo Reach, following a comprehensive retooling of the game's engine. The graphics in particular have been "really rearchitected" according to amazingly-named executive producer Kiki Wolfkill. "Obviously we have people on the team, particuarly on the programming team, who've done a ton of 360 development, who've been there since the beginning, and we're just really lucky to have giant brains working on it." Principal engine programmer Corrine Yutweeted over the weekend that Halo 4 is "the best looking game on Xbox and any other consoles we ever made and we're all from AAA studios." Steady now. Other developers presently in the act of pushing Xbox 360's limits include Epic, which claims Xbox 720 needs 10 times the power to run the new Unreal Engine, and Crytek, whichasserts that CryEngine 3 will dazzle "no matter what next gen consoles come up with". Leave the poor thing alone, you monsters. Update: I've seen a list of weapons that are said to be confirmed I have no link to this yet but I will put it in when i get it, if anyone has a link to this please post it, it would be much appreciated and helpful. Heres the list: -AR,DMR,BR (As we all know at this point) -Covenant Carbine -Assault Carbine -Rocket Launcher -Shotgun -Sniper -Magnum (This can be seen in the vidcoc strapped to the spartans leg) -Plasma pistol Update: Frank say's no armor lock http://www.neogaf.co...&postcount=1045 Originally Posted by TheOddOne: Although no mention of armour lock coming back, they know we hate it. Yeah, no Firefight. Hopefully Spartan Ops can fill that void. Armor Lock is gone. Spartan Ops will scratch that and other itches. Update: Frank answers about forerunner x-ray (This was posted a day or two ago) http://3.bp.blogspot...1600/Frank1.PNG and http://2.bp.blogspot...00/Frankie3.PNG also this one isnt about the x-ray vision but it may clear a few things up for those who are concerned about "random" weapons http://4.bp.blogspot...00/Frankie2.PNG I will try my best to gather any new info about this and update it.

I agree this is a much better looking Cortana though. The pics still aren't confirmed exactly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerpWithAGun Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 These pictures look very real and probably are. I like what I see. Except for the elites, they are ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the coolest elites in Halo history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No prob adam!! You deserve the credit!! Definately looking forward to continuing the Campaign (my priority as well). Still "iffy" on MM but will keep my opinions to myself until further news and actual "hands-on" experience with the MM mode. I still have mine on pre-order. Looks promising but only time will tell..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
