In Response To: Halo 4 demo influences. (Seenohte)


: First one may be nothing, but I think one of the sounds as MC enters the
: jungle is reminiscent of the Brute howl at the start of Sierra 117.

I caught that the first time.

: Through my earphones I could pick up the scout Elite saying
: "wort,wort,wort" just prior to shoving the Grunt.

I thought I heard it say "wort" once, I don't know about 3 times.

: Infinity landing 77.8 km away was a nice nod to Bungie, I felt.

I think Bungie left too many 7 references in there for them to ever really go away, so instead of stomping on them (like with saying there used to be more Halos, WTF), they're embracing it.

: The animation of the Promo Knight knocking Chief down and skull-scowling at
: him before getting punched is almost spot on from the Elite Zealot
: animation in Winter Contingency.

That's where I've seen that before. It makes a tiny bit more sense now.

: That's all I've got. Anyone else spot anything that hasn't been mentioned?
: I'd love to hear.

I looked at the high-resolution render of a Watcher on Waypoint and it looks to me like they have a Marathon symbol in the middle (I reserve the right to be mistaken, though).

You cannot fall off the floor.
