Uggghhh....why did they have to make the Elites sound Japanese? Why not have them speak Turkish or something? [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJfo7IDBznk]I mean imagine hearing this in that deep growly voice.[/url] It would sound a helluva lot cooler than Japanese that's for damn sure.

Yaaahhh.... Japanese speaking Elites? Fail. The Elites also looked like the were all Puppet-Pinned in After Effects... Another FAIL. Trailer looks like shizzzz.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] I Em I Raptor My complaint is how they changed the Assault Carrier. It was one of the coolest, largest, most powerful vessels in Halo's story and 343 butchered it. They literally sliced like 3 kilometers off it it. It now looks straight retarded. The front end is massive and the back is like a little stubble compared to the rest of it. Surely none of you can be happy with this, right?[/quote] Lol it looks like a sperm cell.

Who cares about the changes, who cares if blah blah looks different than in Halo 3. This looks COOL, don't get all caught up in the changes and just enjoy the game, or in this case the trailer.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Xd00999 Not really mind blowing. However, the first Elite we saw looked like he had a huge head, was it weird perspective or something?[/quote] Yes. Same with the apparently warped perspective of the Assault Carrier. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Lobster Fish 2 Elites voices sound very stereotypical film-type Japanese. Regardless, more Halo 4 stuff never hurts.[/quote] What like fake Japanese? That's good I suppose, since it's not supposed to be Japanese. [Edited on 10.09.2012 6:07 PM PDT]

I assumed the usual complainers were just complaining about everything like complainers often do, but too many people are complaining about a change that I don't even see. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Quantam You guys are wasting time arguing over the Elite armor (which has changed but I don't mind it), the Elite language (same as Legends) and the ships (I don't see any major change whatsoever, still looks badass). You missed the biggest retcon: they retconned the Forward Unto Dawn completely, 100%. Most of the changes in armor/weapons/ships etc in the game have been quite trivial so far, but this one has changed the design completely, it looks like a Cruiser.[/quote] They changed it so it works as a campaign level.[/quote] 250m of Charon class frigate is more than enough for a Campaign level, due to the different vertical aspects.[/quote] The internal layout, however, wouldn't, especially seeing as it was the back half, which is basically just one huge storage and loading bay and engineering hall ways. It at least wouldn't be very exciting.

Are people surprised that the elites sound Japanese? 343i was behind Halo Legends, and there was this one -blam!- episode where you saw the Elite's home planet. It looked like Japan, and they were basically samurai. It isn't surprising to see Japanese elites.

[/quote] Bungie modeled their culture after feudal Japans. Not surprising that they'd seem similar.[/quote] no they didn't.[/quote] Yes, they did. "The Sangheili[5] (Latin Macto cognatus[6], meaning "I glorify my kin"" Even their name has Japanese influence, notice the word "kin"

Elites speak japanese...dafuq?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] I Em I Raptor On second thought, you're right. I wouldn't be surprised if I'm wrong though. We never directly see the aft section of the ship.[/quote] It's fine, perspective is rather weird in Halo games. Have you seen the FuD campaign mission pics? The cruisers look tiny.

It's merely the angle of the ship and the fact that this is a terminal rendition (more cartoonized). It looks the same.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] I Em I Raptor My complaint is how they changed the Assault Carrier.[/quote]? I don't see any difference.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] I Em I Raptor They shortened the aft section of the vessel. Judging by the glow of the energy reactors on the back, its entirely too short. That glow should be [i]way[/i] back.[/quote] Are you seriously arguing that such perceptions have actually equalled a retcon? How about actually understanding the concept of perspective and art style before stating others don't know what they are talking about? NOTHING major has changed.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BROWN HAWK [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Quantam [/quote]I can understand that they're exploring new things, but some changes are just unnecessary. Mostly I'm talking about appearances of characters or vehicles. I don't mind Chief's new armor, but the Elites look quite different.[/quote] I'm not arguing about the other changes. But the ships and the language is still the same IIRC.

Surely none of you can be happy with this, right?[/quote] I'll have another look but it doesn't look like anything major has changed. I believe we saw two different types of ships in that Terminal, the CCS Class Battlecruiser and the Assault Carrier. The Assault Carrier looks almost exactly the same from what I can see, while there are a few smaller modifications of the Battlecruiser.
