Spartan Ops Season Break Trailer
Here is a [url=http://cdn.playwire.com/1809/embed/145444.html]trailer[/url] for the second half of season one.
There's a few cool things in there.
-Thorne went down swinging it seems
-Infinity gets boarded as predicted and Palmer leads the defense
-Jul gets what he was looking for?
-New architecture. Flood? Precurser? Who knows.
*UPDATE*
[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztq2amQMlUQ&feature=youtu.be]Extended Trailer[/url]
-Looks like we get a Broadsword mission! Glad 343i are varying things.
-New environments including the Infinity, not the campaign version.

Despite the weird shape the Colors would actually make it blend better with the terrain if it is a scarab.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] the real Janaka [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] switch 104 sv Updated the OP with an extended trailer, new stuff in it.[/quote]Nice, now we get to see that organic looking scarab thing in a bit better resolution and a new angle. I'm intrigued as hell, what is it?! [/quote]Im afraid that that is *shuders* the new scarab.

I'm pretty sure I saw vortex in there at some point, looks like we might be playing more MM maps.
-
I'm happy for the new locations, and I would like to see how Thorne and fireteam Crimson get out of the problems they're in.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] GhostLink2401 And what's with the break? They made Season 1 as part of the game development. There's literally nothing to make, or upload to Live. They just unlock another Episode from the disc every week, so why are they making us wait 3 weeks?[/quote]Because of the virgin gaming contest they are having, those 3 weeks well be ocupied by the contest and they dont want it to interfere with spartan ops.

Updated the OP with an extended trailer, new stuff in it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] wcd45 I thought the coolest thing was what looked like a deactivated Scarab.[/quote] yeah, i think it's an updated version of the Scarab. Looks MASSIVE, though. we've already seen a new Covie airship, right?
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] flamedude Yeah.... I wonder what that weird looking Scarab was about? Is there hidden content on the H4 disc that is specifically for Spartan Ops?? I know that there are some little bits and pieces in the maps but I never thought there would be giant pieces of Spartan Ops content.[/quote] Disc Two installed 2GB of content to your HDD for Spartan Ops. There's no way Thorne's taking out all those Elites. If he does, I'm calling bull-blam!-. I know we take them out by the dozens in gameplay, but that's not entirely representative of canon. Even a Spartan-II should struggle to defeat an Elite in hand-to-hand combat. If they've all got swords and he's unarmed, a Spartan-IV like Thorne shouldn't stand a chance. Maybe taking out one or two. Maybe. Anything else and it's bollocks. [Edited on 12.10.2012 3:03 AM PST]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] flamedude I'm really going to dislike it if Thorne can hold off 8 Elites single-handedly, especially after what happens to "hyper lethal vector" Noble Six.[/quote] Noble Six had to fight off a whole variety of ranks. Thorne's ones look just like Storm noobs.
-
I'd say Thorne takes out one or two and gets overwhelmed and captured/killed. How else would his IFF tag be left behind without him or a body? Unrelated note, did anyone see a waypoint code at the end or did I make that up? [Edited on 12.09.2012 7:08 PM PST]

[/quote] I don't think they'll have to, I suspect that there are some Flood already in there. We have infected Spartan models for multiplayer and the whole backstory of the Halo universe involve Flood so I think they will get some kind of a cameo. Cutscene if not gameplay, 343 said that there was no Flood in Campaign but they dodged every question about Flood in Spartan Ops.[/quote] Maybe. Although the legs look robotic rather than organic. [/quote] Whatever it is, it can't be Forerunner. Between the three factions already in game, it would most likely be Covenant, but the thing almost looks like it could be alive. Too organic to be Covenant, I'd wager. Though in the back of my mind I'm retaining an expectation that it will be Covenant, to avoid getting my hopes up.[/quote] To be honest it reminds me of Abandon's environment, just overgrowing a Covenant structure. I don't even think anything interesting will happen.

[i]Infinity[/i] gets boarded? I -blam!- called it!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] the real Janaka The strange stucture looks awfully a lot like a Scarab...[/quote] If that was the case, I would be ecstatic... Looks good, i'm hopeful for some crazy new areas.
