Hi,
I just watched a video of Anoj's Halo 4 Analysis series, and even though the video is a couple days old, i haven't seen a thread posted about this.
First off, the video i'm talking about is this one
Around the 2 minute mark, it appears that a 343i employee talks about how the Master Chief is not the only Spartan anymore and how the program moved on. Of course everyone knows that in Halo 4's multiplayer, you will be playing as a Spartan IV soldier.
But what's your opinion on this?
Of course it makes sense that the UNSC would move on with the spartan program. And with Master Chief, the last Spartan, being gone, of course there'd have to be many new Spartans. So what would be better for them than the return to the Spartan VI program, which can arguably be explained as a mass production of Spartan supersoldiers. Well, not mass, but more for less money.
So this makes me wonder about Halo 4's campaign too. How will we interact with those Spartan supersoldiers? My thought on this is that they will probably replace the Marines and ODST soldiers as our AI comrades in battle.
If that thought is true, maybe for once our allies won't prove to be just another dangerous enemy again
