Will there be any Covenant presence in Campaign or Multiplayer? Be it weaponry, equipment, architecture, etc. –Lloyd Jo en es

Yes. The Covenant will definitely return, albeit in a completely (graphically, politically and sonically) overhauled form, but they may be the least of your problems.



Will the mid-construction mech seen on one of the Multiplayer levels appear in some form in the campaign of Halo 4? –Franc and Co


The Cyclops 2 seen in the center of War House will not be playable. But we will have some vehicle surprises, at least one of which will dwarf that weapon.
This sounds VERY promising and fun.

Is Jen Taylor voicing Cortana? Who were the woman and man in the motion capture part of the Halo 4 video? –Jedi Otter

The man and woman in the video were incredibly talented actors. Their roles in Halo 4 are pivotal and essential to the story we’re telling, but we’ll talk more about those and other actors in the future. I think Halo fans will be calm and happy about our casting, including MP V/O, but we’re not revealing more at this time.
The fact that we're not getting a straight answer about Jen Taylor voicing Cortana does not fill me with confidence.

Have to agree there, too many vague answers to even bother considering that Q&A actually a Q&A.

And indeed I lose alot of confidence on the Jen Taylor/Cortana thing, her and the MC are one of the biggest reason I love Halo so much.

Hell I even named my main avatar in Guild Wars after Cortana!

As someone who really liked the single player campaign and the Cortana bater this is a significant disappointment.

The mech is almost certainly human, since human tech/architecture has a very mechanical/industrial feel to it.-


After the war they started a new program that could provide augmentation to adult soldiers, so they didn't need the kids anymore. They rolled the still surviving Spartan III's into this program. Given the progression of the Spartan programs it's not that outlandish.

Spartan I's:Adults given enhancements. Improvements, but not super human. Subjects to old to be easily modified.

Spartan II's:Children screened for genetic adaptability and given enhancements. High fatality rate, but extreme super human ability.

Spartan III's: Improved enhancements allow regular children to be enhanced to near Spartan II levels with low fatality rate.

Spartan IV's: Even greater improvements to enhancements allow successful super human augmentation of adults.


Also, considering the UNSC has a friendly Covenant Engineer in it's possession, it wouldn't surprise me if they'd started making more forays into mass producing Covenant/forerunner tech.

The new enemy has to either be a new alien race also after Forerunner tech, or the Forerunners themselves/AI left behind by the Forerunners. The latter seems a bit far-fetched, but it wouldn't surprise me given the look of the sphere shown in the H4 trailer.

There seems to be some inconsistencies there.

The UNSC Infinity Ship which is suppose to show up in Halo 4 represents the advances the UNSC had made.

I think it'll be a while before he ever reaches that level... unless we're talking about Zero Suit Samus. :k

If this is a Forerunner world...weren't the Forerunners human or near-human? As in the only ones that could activate the Halos were humans (not Covenent)...if I remember how the talk went with Guilty Spark 343.

Kinda. They were Humanoid, but a different race.

Spoiler for Forerunner in Combat Suit:

Before the Forerunners vanished from the galaxy they named Humans as their successors and gave them the title 'Reclaimer', which is what 343GS calls John when he first sees him.

I recommend watching Halo Legends: Origins, its a good watch to know a quick summery of the main stuff of Halo Universe.

Not sure I'd recommend Halo Legends as a whole though. Overall in terms of plot/animation quality it was pretty unimpressive.
