In [[cooperative play]], players assume the roles of different fireteam members, with each having their own distinct loadout; for example, [[Linda-058]] always spawns with a [[SRS99-S5 AM sniper rifle|sniper rifle]]. The different characters' base attributes also have subtle differences: for example, [[Kelly-087]] is faster than the other members of Blue Team and [[Holly Tanaka|Tanaka]] has a higher [[motion tracker]] range. Characters also have minor differences in traits such as their grenade carrying capacity or thrust recharge rate.<ref name="QG interview">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=10&v=2hVMhkgjQBE '''YouTube''': ''Interview Exclusive Josh Holmes (343 Industries)'']</ref> The [[heads-up display]]s of each team member have a unique design.{{Ref/Reuse|h5g yourteam}} In co-op, players are able to choose which character to play as, although they are restricted to either Locke or the Master Chief in single player.
