Halo Reach Multiplayer Trailer

I’m so excited about this trailer that I really can’t form coherent sentences. So go check it out on youtube or on IGN for the full experience.

Of course now I feel like a clown for having traded in ODST, which if you remember, allows you instant access into the Halo: Reach Beta on May 3rd.

So keep those discs handy boys and girls.

As for whats actually in the trailer, here are just a few of the things people have spotted.

Custom Loadouts for powers. (Which the devs have already explained will be in multiplayer)
Jetpacks (Halo going Tribal?)
New Weapons: Needling Rifle, Covenant version of Spartan Laser, Grenade launcher, Designated Marksman Rifle.
Modes: Invasion, Spartans vs. Elites, Headhunter and The Arena. (Halo gametypes have always bothered me, Reach might be the one to turn it around.)
Active Rosters. (This could have something to do with Clans or simply a way to enter friends games.)
Targeting reticule increases in size as accuracy lessens with continued fire.
Maps in the trailer: Spillway, Yard, Rock Garden, Atrium, CIC, Smelter, Powerhouse level 2, Barren Field
New Sweet Looking Assassinations (The animations look like they take a while, I hope this doesn’t have the same effect that the stealth kills had in AVP.)

Stay tuned for more information over the coming weeks.
