Hmm...

That's probably because Chief is not moving...

And neither is Locke.

Friend Foe identification tags are software. They're not based on movement alone. In both scenarios neither one of them is moving.

That little dot on the radar is just part of the pillar. Neither one of them shows up on the other's radar.

Rewatched the video and when it cuts to his visor the second time, there's no dot. It's there momentarily in the first shot.

It's a part of the pillar. There's multiple lightser specs on the pillar further up too.

The fact that Halo 5 exists with a character named Locke is already fucking baffling.

I really wish the franchise wasn't heading towards this direction. I actually hate what they did with Halo 4.

These games are like the fucking Star Wars Prequels to me.

Did you ever happen to read my garbled thesis/theory/talk about Locke's name, when combined with the Chief's, produces John Locke, who was a real world philosopher with some very interesting theories that when applied to the story could essentially be rough parrallelss?

You see that's the problem. Lost already executed a fictional character with the same last name. I don't understand why Halo needs to get that out of the way. Do we really need Chief to go rouge and pretty much become an enemy to the UNSC?

And that character in himself was a bit of a tribute to the philospher.

Chief would never be an enemy of the UNSC because it's in his bones to protect. This is a case of, Chief's doing what he's doing because he can see the bigger picture, and ONI are being scumbags behind his back.

The UNSC no doubt still supports him.

Looking at the ending of Halo 2, the entire Halo 3 campaign and the entire Halo Reach campaign, then 343's work is written significantly better.

Still, I feel like this whole franchise now has a completely different vibe. The only one that was similar to Combat Evolve's vibe was ODST really.

Also, let's make one thing perfectly clear. Halo CE is the ONLY Halo game that has one Game of the year, and that has a fuck load of technical flaws, but the story and hell even the gameplay is award winning regardless. All of the others? Nope.

Halo 4? Not a chance. My point is, Halo 5 isn't going to do very well as far as the canon goes. Halo 4 was already a colossal disappointment in my eyes. Halo 2 and 3, while the story had a nice atmosphere, completely different vibe, it felt like a different fucking game. (Still good but could have been better if Halo 2 and 3 were 1 game) and ODST I believe was Halo's maximum potential in terms of story.

However, with all that said, nothing can beat the original. When I heard of Halo Reach, honestly, if Bungie just reused the music from Halo 1 while making a new game with a new engine that is still very CEish in terms of animation and design, though the animation would be new, but if they kept it close to the original source, it could have worked easily and possibly been another Game of The Year, but they fucked it up with new characters that get axed off quickly.

If you guys really enjoy Halo 5, have fun with it when it's out. For me, the definitive Halo and I mean whenever I think of the franchise Halo, will always be the original. Not the stupid remastered one that Saber Interactive shat out, the original Bungie classic, which was heavily flawed technically, but had a charm to it.

Can that same charm come back in any of the future Halo games? Doubt it. You know why? Because this generation of Halo fans, mainly the fanboys, are like drones. Oh god the fans in my city are so bad here, they make the COD fans here look like normal people.

*sigh*

I really miss the old days. I just wish shit would go back to the way it used to be with games and the Xbox.

My sister's right. I'm pretty much lost with the direction Xbox and Halo headed.

If it makes you feel better I shalln't ever lay thine hands on Halp 5 because I am a peasant in a field. Even with price cuts the Juan is still and extortionist price up here.

I just play my dark souls and be happy.

This might sound stupid, but there are times where I just wish I had a memory wipe, where I discover Halo with a fresh mind. Maybe that would get me to enjoy 343's work.

I don't even know anymore. Just.... My Halo.... Gone.

I can see the different tone viewpoints. But then again if somebody made CE every year then the fish clones argument would be truly valid.

If anything I think 343 is doing the best they can but they're being reigned in by M$.

Pardon my rudeness, but I think it's just nerd cocktease passed as food until E3. I mean, what next, a screenshot of the HUD pointing against a rock and the rock appears friendly, and will the internet detectives go onto investigating the correlation of the rock with the Halo universe and everything therein?

That's a good question. Of which I've no apparent answer.

Yes, in TDM you don't earn points by killing your enemy, but you earn points by killing your team-mates and planting flags of ONI on their corpses while t-bagging them for maximum effect. After the match, you will get a short clip of UNSC's flag waving and its anthem while your Spartan tears.

So does that mean Halo 5 is about team killing?

I hope this isn't the case. The possible conflict between the two of them is one of the few potentially interesting storylines Halo has going for it.

343 has butchered Halo. I don't even consider it canon.
