One more thing :
I'm probably paranoid and coming up with any reason to believe this isn't real, but am I the only one who thinks that looks a hell of a lot like the H1 hog's textures?
Uh... how can you tell the engine from poop-cam pics? ">_>"Quote:

BR looks fucking hideous my god. I like the other things, lazer looks cool, does any one else see this as a new attachment for hog?Quote:

Looks cool, although just looks like Halo 3 + 1, I thought reach was going to be CRAZY different.
Cool pictures though, so its already in testing phase? They let some random douche in to play.
Don't worry, you're not paranoid. I see that as well.Quote:

Someone is gonna ask Bungie what these screenshots mean, I just know it <_>
Keep in mind this is set before H1. It's entirely possible that they're using similar textures, and you can't exactly tell how detailed they are.Quote:

Not quite sure, but it just doesn't look any different from Halo 3, even seeing it through poop-cam pictures.Quote:

Everything's obviously in Alpha stage. You can see the UV stretching in the cliffs in the first pic as well as a bunch of reused Halo 3 assets. I really hope the HUD is a placeholder. Doesn't look too good to me.
Also I think I spy a new type of rocket launcher in the 3rd pic. Look like a cross between the standard rocket launcher and the missile pod. Return of the target seeking rockets from Halo 2?
So... This is NOT going to be class-based, as many had been predicting, but more of a Rainbow 6/COD/H3 hybrid?
I'm reserving all judgments until Bungie gives us some official pics; I suggest you do the same.
Also, H1 hog textures may be placeholder, or it may be heavily inspired by the H1 'Hog.
This IS set directly before the events of H1, after all...
The guy who took the pics and posted them on MLG forums, says that it holds 12 shots per magazine, and fires one shot at time, but has a longer range than the battle rifle. The needler\carbine thing fires needles (obviously), and causes a superdetonation when 3 needles contact a target. With only 3 needles requireing an explosion, it most definately fires slower than the normal needler, or the carbine for that matter.
