I actually like the sound of this. So you have a long range weapon that can be used to deter vehicles from getting close, but that doesn't insta kill them like the Spartan Laser? I can dig this.
Though if there IS a weapon charge (and no scope), I'd hope that a direct hit on a player would be an insta kill. Since otherwise it's just not remotely as useful as the Sniper rifle at making kills.

So it seems Microsoft key note on monday is going to start off with a 10 minute Halo 4 campaign demo playthrough.
We've also gotten a look at non Spartan humans for the first time, and next to Chief no less. "You are all so small! Is funny to me!" edit: A rotated shot of Chief next to the captain guy.

For anyone who missed it, the video they showed at E3.
Apparantly in Halo 4 the UNSC has huge trucks. I think the Elephant is off in the corner somewhere crying.

A bit short, though I did like that live action stuff they were showing. They certainly proved it will have high production values.
Also, seems confirmed that you'll be fighting with other Spartans in the campaign as your elite mook backup. Not sure why the Marine has a fabric based ballistic vest when he's probably gonna get shot at with people with plasma guns :P

The marine is wearing what looks like a molle plate carrier designed to hold a ballistic plate on the inside allowing for pouches to be attached externally.
Although more "realistic" I much preferred the aliens inspired plate armor of halos previous especially Reaches marine design.

Also, new video. And official site with all sorts of goodies. Also, new info on that grenade pistol. -The M363 RPD is a low-profile single-shot weapon that launches a magnetically latched explosive, which the operator can remotely detonate when at a safe distance. Although previously manufactured in low quantities, this weapon’s size and ease-of-transportability has made it ubiquitous in the years which followed the Covenant War. It kinda sounds like the grenade launcher from Halo Reach with remote detonation, except it has the ability to stick on targets.

Look at it this way the lighter the load your carrying the better your chances of dodging said plasma bolts besides if you want to go into the finer details most modern military plate carrier are made from ultra strong fire resistant material (1000d codura) that doesn't burn in the combustible sense. Anyway love the new assault rifle sound its very meaty and overall I'm surprisingly impressed with the gameplay video above.

Oh yeah, I love the sound of the AR to. Very meaty and nasty sounding.
though looking closer at that mega truck, I'm noticing it has firing ports on the top, for infantry to shoot from. It seems like you're going to get to play around with this thing. I REALLY hope we get to drive this in campaign, and use it in multiplayer.

My initial thought on Cortana's last line was that she was talking to the Chief, but perhaps it's directed toward Didact or whatever enemy AI she's fighting against (possibly trying to control her)?
