Halo 4 Coop Characters?

In Halo: Combat Evolved there were two identical Master Chiefs. In Halo 3 There were multiple characters consisting of the Chief, The Arbiter, and two Covenant Seperatists. Halo Reach introduced us to custom coop characters. But what about Halo 4? There may just be identical John-117's, who knows, i don't which is why I am asking, anyone have any ideas?--~~—This unsigned comment was made by GMASTER (talk • contribs).

Most likely the HCE route than Halo 3's.— subtank 01:49, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

I'll repeat my answer from Q&A's...Here's my theory: The other players will be MC for the first few missions before you encounter the Infinity and after you make it to the ship, the other players will become S-IV's (either your custom made one or default models w/ Recruit armor). The switch isn't canon but logical...--Killamint [Comm|Files] 12:30, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

Halo 4 Armor Customizations?

I am wondering, in Halo 4 Armor, and I could be wrong, but will the armor sets in Halo 4 be like the elite armor in reach where the armor is non-interchangeable and a strict default armor per rank. Or will we be able to change different armor pieces with other suits?--~~—This unsigned comment was made by GMASTER (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

They are interchangeable like they were in Halo: Reach.--Killamint [Comm|Files] 11:37, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

Halo 4 War Games Gameplay Canon?

As you all may realize, War Games is the new name of what we players will know as Competitive Multiplayer for Halo 4. It is described as pinning players against one another in a simulated fighting experience within the UNSC Infinty. Apparently, this is the area in halo canon where actual Spartan-IV supersoldiers would fight within for training. What I'm wondering about is that when Spartan-IV's would fight with one another, we as players would see actual spartans killing one another. But for the "real" troopers, would this be more similar to virtual reality warfare, paintball, laser tag, etc. Especially since we know that "actual" troops would not fight for survival. Post your thoughts on what you think actual War Games simulations would feel like.—This unsigned comment was made by GMASTER (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

First, sign your comments! Second, the spartans actually dying may be for "gameplay" purposes just like how the ARC-920 recoils after being fired even though its a "Recoiless" carbine. But honestly, I can't say for sure aside from it being for gameplay.--Killamint [Comm|Files] 19:50, 15 September 2012 (EDT)

My Bad, kinda forgot, but got it. :DGMASTER 17:41, 16 September 2012 (EDT)

John-117 in cryo AND at the Circumference at the same time?

Ive played Halo Reach and recently ive read the book Halo: The fall of Reach. What confuses me is the following.

In the book, the Masterchief was assigned to destroy the Circumference allong with Linda and James. After this they immediatly returned back to the ship. Also the Pillar of Autumm remained in space and did not land on Reach, it couldnt because they where drawn from Operation: Red Flag and by the time they got back to Reach, the Covenant was all over the planet, making landing impossible.

While in the game as Noble Six, you need to bring AI Cortana to the Pillar of Autumm (which is obviously landed in the shipyard) and in the cutscene, you can see John inside a cryotube. According to the book, the cruiser never landed on Reach and neither did John enter a cryotube before they made a slip-space jump to installation 04.

It seems like the book is not complete, or the game is just wrong?

John in the Cryo tube is an Easter egg, it's not considered canon.File:Colonel Grade One.pngCol. Snipes450File:Colonel Grade One.png 17:40, 14 October 2012 (EDT)
