*[[Frank O'Connor]] has confirmed that the events depicted in the trailer are ''"definitely not a part of the real game story"'' and that the trailer is intended as a teaser only.<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/news/blog/343-sparkast-004-e3-edition/64516 '''343 Sparkast:''' ''6/8/11'']</ref> | *[[Frank O'Connor]] has confirmed that the events depicted in the trailer are ''"definitely not a part of the real game story"'' and that the trailer is intended as a teaser only.<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/news/blog/343-sparkast-004-e3-edition/64516 '''343 Sparkast:''' ''6/8/11'']</ref> | ||
*The ''Forward Unto Dawn'' looks noticeably different from its appearance in ''[[Halo 3]]'', as the external [[bridge]] structure is not present and the [[hangar bay]] is less prominent. John's armor also appears to be visually revised; the helmet has an external rebreather apparatus, the chestplate has a different configuration, the shoulder pauldrons are much wider, the abdomen is armored, the groin armor is absent, and the gauntlets are smaller and are flat rather than ridged. Frank O'Connor has stated that some of the changes to John's armor are merely aesthetic, though other changes, including the lack of the codpiece, will be explained in the game's story.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FyEB5FhA8Q&feature=related '''IGN Live (E3 2011)''' - ''Halo HD Remake Commentary'']</ref> However, John's appearance in the trailer does not represent its appearance in the final game; the armor is currently in its fourth artistic iteration, as the art team intends to make John appear both iconic and familiar to fans.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP2gSLNzKSc&feature=related '''Halo Fest 2011''' - ''Halo 4 Discussion Part 1''</ref> | *The ''Forward Unto Dawn'' looks noticeably different from its appearance in ''[[Halo 3]]'', as the external [[bridge]] structure is not present and the [[hangar bay]] is less prominent.

*Cortana can be heard crying ''"Wake up, John!"'' and ''"I need you!"'' to John while the latter is still in cryo-sleep. This is a reference to the final line of ''[[Halo 3]]'', when John tells Cortana, ''"Wake me. When you need me."'' | *Cortana can be heard crying ''"Wake up, John!"'' and ''"I need you!"'' to John while the latter is still in cryo-sleep.

*There is also a "Director's Cut" version of the trailer. Differences include the music, the Chief not saying "I'm here", the sound effect of the [[Unidentified UNSC weapon (Halo 4)|pistol]], and that the Chief throws away said pistol at the trailer's end instead of reloading it.<ref>[http://www.josephkosinski.com/projects/movs/halo4.html '''Joseph Kosinski''': ''Awakening - Director's Cut'']</ref> | *There is also a "Director's Cut" version of the trailer.
