It looks to be a joint project between 343 studios, CBS, and Spielberg. As I enjoyed Forward Unto Dawn, I'm not worried in the least that this Spielberg Halo show is going to be horrible. Gotta figure they'll start talking about Halo 5 at this E3, or next years, as well.

Yeah. I'd get this. Seems fair, and the gameplay looks fun. And I love those kind of semi animated cutscenes they've been occasionally using for these halo games. (they should have used those for Spartan Ops, and focused the fancy cgi focused on doing stuff with the in game missions).

Its possible that it may not only be her you would be playing. Judging from the video, you may also play that yellow/gold spartan as well. But, weather its a named or nameless character we would have to wait.
It like looks the cut scenes are being done by the same guys that did the terminal videos in Halo anniversary, and Halo 4, which were done as a motion comic. Last edited by ScorchingFlames; 2013-06-04 at 17:06. |

though I'm certainly not opposed to that second point. I always loved those Halo motion comics.

You know, I've been meaning to ask how old is Serin Osman? Serin is a wash out of the Spartan II program, we've seen her on Spartan Ops she look like she is in her 20s. Masterchief been in cryo majority of the Human Covenant War like most Spartans coupled with 4 years before Halo 4. In the ending, Chiefs eyes seems like he is very old like in his mid 30s yet Serin who is a wash out have not been in Cryo that much and have been following in the footsteps of Parangosky.

Master Chief and osman were born in the same year. 2511. Meaning chronologically (as of Halo 4) they're both 47 years old. Though biological age gets muddled by the amount of cryo sleep they both could have gotten. Though keep in mind. Osman has spent most of her life doing intelligence work. Most of it behind a desk or a console. Master Chief and the other Spartans have spent the last couple decades of their lives in prolonged high intensity combat conditions, much of it close quarters combat. Such conditions are not conducive for somebody looking youthful. This man was only 20 years old when the photo was taken.

Yeah, Serin, I think feels like Halsey rejected her. She is a wash out of the Spartan II program. So maybe that is why she and Paragonsky got along, they both hated Halsey. I also thinks she got an inferiority complex noted in Halo: Grassland when Phillips was trying to be friendly to her when she thought that if she wore her Spartan number ID: 019 then Phillips may have acted much differently to her.

And that leads me to your second point about Osman not seeing Halsey as a mother figure. To be fair she failed at the augmentations and got kicked out, so she probably didn't get to interact with Halsey much. And as you said she may also feel rejected as a result, which contributed to her animosity towards Halsey. |

I still think she's a hypocritical knuckle dragger who has no business being in charge of an intelligence organization.

Well, I admit my lost. Yeah, chronically she is 47 like Chief is. Jennifer Aniston still looks beautiful despite being 44. Rambo, I agree on your opinion that Serin should not be the head of Office of Naval Intelligence. She was one of the major contributors of the situation right now. Parangosky gave the orders and Serin followed through without any hestitation thus leading to the creation of Covenant Remnant. Thus, her mistake cause the disturbance of peace between the Sangheili and mankind, it is kind of a joke that she is the boss.
Right now the Covenant Remnant is not a big worry for ONI, that will probably change rather quickly. Despite Halsey care for her Spartans, it is no doubt that she feels that she has been betrayed. Not only that, she been kept out of the loop and treated as a war criminal despite she having like 30 percent in saving humanity. All of Parangosky and Serin's own projects such as the Spartan III and Spartan IV never made the contributions or feats like the Spartan IIs. I wonder how Serin was in the Spartan II program, was she liked among her peers in there? We know from experience that not all Spartans get along with each other like Spartan Team Red and Black. |

Really makes Palmer kind of irritating in Spartan Ops. She's on such a high horse about what a monster Halsey is...when just days prior, she'd been gloating about how superior her Spartans were compared to regular Marines/Army. Despite the fact that all the advantages she's so cocky about (the armor, the augmentation) were all came from that War criminal she despises so much. Palmer just seems to completely lack in reflection of any kind if she's going to get all righteously indignant about medical experimentation on child soldiers, and then proceed to flaunt the fruits of said experimentation around like it's something she can take credit for.

Palmer does strike me as you said. She got pride in being a Spartan yet she never gave the credit that is due for being one. Medical procedures and the armor especially (who I still believe is not even close to good as the Mark VII made by Halsey) stem from the research of Halsey. The ship she is on was made by Halsey. The advancements of AI constructs was also due to her, especially Cortana and Serina. Weaponry such as the Spartan laser stem from the MJOLNIR project from which Halsey was the Chief Scientist. All of these contributed to the survival of the human race. While Palmer and her Spartan IVs became the first Spartans in history to receive the Prisoner of War medal against an under-armed and under-technological Covenant. She has the gall to tell Halsey quiet and she is the blame for the attack because she haven't fix the Ship, whose bright idea was it to bring Forerunner artifact onto the ship without first researching it on the surface of Requiem to know the dangers? For what reasons were there for Halsey to be called a war criminal. Palmer herself needs to be told that her armor and her abilities all came from a war criminal. |

It is kind of ironic isn't it, remember Reach, the line that Halsey said to Carter "Commander, are you a puppet or a Spartan?" Halsey should have said that to Palmer in Spartan Ops and she is also the rank of Commander. Also, isn't it a coincidence that among all the Halo games, Masterchief openly disobeyed an order from a Superior Officer (he was a ass, he deserved to get thrown off the ship by Chief). Bungie isn't known for coincidence, instead these little details often have shocking information or foreshadowing for the next game. |

Guess I'm the only one who likes Palmer and her voice in particular....Jennifer Hale makes every character sounds sooo good~~
Her personality aside, her acting/mo-cap is pretty good, too. I though it translates pretty well to portraying her as a capable and indeed badass military leader. That said, Lasky isn't bad either, and I'm liking the camaraderie between those two. |
