I've always wondered if there would be a canon explanation as to why the Master Chief encounters all of the updated UNSC weaponry of 2557 during the first three missions of Halo 4 (before the Infinity arrives). While we know that the MA5D was around for quite a while, it's still odd to figure that all of the assault rifles found on the FUD were MA5Ds. Master Chief also encounters BR85s, M6Hs, and the new model of the Warthog. While the M6H was known to be around since at least 2552, we have no idea when the BR85 was created and we do know that this new model of Warthog was manufactured in 2554. I know that it's not very practical on 343's part to add the MA5C, BR55HB SR, M6G, and former Warthog model in the game just for the beginning missions in campaign, but I'm wondering as to whether there is an actual, "mentally gymnastic" way we could implement this into canon, or if we should just write this off as "pretending" that these models are the older versions as we use them (just like how the Marines in the last mission of Reach were using MA37s instead of MA5Bs).--[[Image:PENGUIN4.gif|15px]]''[[User:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Fluffy</span><span style="color:gray; font-family:Verdana">Emo</span><span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Penguin</span>]]<sup><small>([[User talk:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:gray">ice quack!</span>]])''</small></sup> 20:37, 26 February 2013 (EST) | I've always wondered if there would be a canon explanation as to why the Master Chief encounters all of the updated UNSC weaponry of 2557 during the first three missions of Halo 4 (before the Infinity arrives).

I've always wondered if there would be a canon explanation as to why the Master Chief encounters all of the updated UNSC weaponry of 2557 during the first three missions of Halo 4 (before the Infinity arrives). While we know that the MA5D was around for quite a while, it's still odd to figure that all of the assault rifles found on the FUD were MA5Ds. Master Chief also encounters BR85s, M6Hs, and the new model of the Warthog. While the M6H was known to be around since at least 2552, we have no idea when the BR85 was created and we do know that this new model of Warthog was manufactured in 2554. I know that it's not very practical on 343's part to add the MA5C, BR55HB SR, M6G, and former Warthog model in the game just for the beginning missions in campaign, but I'm wondering as to whether there is an actual, "mentally gymnastic" way we could implement this into canon, or if we should just write this off as "pretending" that these models are the older versions as we use them (just like how the Marines in the last mission of Reach were using MA37s instead of MA5Bs).--File:PENGUIN4.gifFluffyEmoPenguin(ice quack!) 20:37, 26 February 2013 (EST)
