The Ghosts of Halo in ''Reach'' differ significantly from those seen in past games. They appear on the scoreboard, but show as perpetually dead (with their emblem covered by a red "X"). Actions taken by a ghost occur like they should; they can fire shots normally, occupy vehicles, and so on. However, the ghost itself is entirely absent on others' consoles; they do not appear on the motion tracker when on foot, and ghost-occupied vehicles are displayed on the motion tracker as if they were moving of their own accord. | The Ghosts of Halo in ''Reach'' differ significantly from those seen in past games.
