What do you guys think about the auto-sentry? Will it be a multiplayer pickup, will it be balanced well? I noticed in the video where they showcased the flagnum and the auto-pickup, that when the flag was planted, it looked for a second like a sentinel was above it, maybe an objective protector of sorts, or maybe I was delusional from excitement. I also think that the knights are insect like, like from the six limbs (if you count the micro-driver arms) and the clicking noise they make. And just one other thought, what would you guys think about an animation where the players helmet splits like the knight's and shows a skull now and then, perhaps after a sword assassination, it could be the new haunted helmet.

Hey podtac, really enjoying the show. Glad to see BrentGamer back. [for good right?] Super excited to hear what you think of Dominion mode, solace, and flood mode. Also out of what we've seen what's the helmet you see as your helmet. Thanks a lot and keep on fraggin' trucks.

Cloud Massacre

Dear Podtacular,
This is Cloud again and I have a few questions and ideas for you all to discuss during your episode. My first question is how many submissions we can submit? Second, do you guys think the mammoth will be on some multiplayer maps like the elephants on sandtrap? Third, will the Hornet or the Falcon be returning to Halo 4? My fourth question is will Flood mode replacing infection or will they both be in the game? The next few questions I have are about Forge. Do you guys think there will be interactive items like buttons or pressure plates? And do you guys think items like crates and barrels will be more movable like Halo 3? I found the items in Halo Reach were not very movable, I miss making zombie maps like Left 4 Dead. Also how do you think custom maps will play out in Infinity? Do you all think there will be a playlist with only custom content, or all the playlists will have a few custom maps? Next I have a loadout idea that could work very well. You could have a sniper clas s with wetwork and have an auto turret to warn you when someone comes near you; I think that would be a good combo. Thanks for reading my over long submission.

Hey guys how she be goin eh? Just wanted to get your thought on mendicant bias and if you guys think he will be in halo 4 or have a significant role in it. He is such a major character in the lore but has yet to make any sort of appearance in the game( minus halo 3 terminals). Also I know you guys can't talk about but I just want to know if you guys have seen the leaks about campaign a simple yes no will suffice. Thanks guys and message me if you ever need someone to be on the show again.

Hey, got two things I want to talk about. Firstly, I wanna mention what Dustin said about the soundtrack being epic movie pieces (which I agree with). We have to remember that these were SAMPLES: pieces that they gave us to get hyped. I wouldn't want thematic 'background' music right now, but I definitely think it will be in the full soundtrack. Secondly, I want to mention the flood. I know that many people hate fighting the flood (I didn't mind it too much) but Im really looking forward to fighting them in Halo 5 and 6. This is because this time round, we could be fighting with Promethean weapons designed for killing flood. It think this addition will make the flood combat more interesting (imaging scattershotting flood in the face and watching them disintegrate). Anyways, keep on fragging trucks!!!

I love your show and I have listened to the podcast since it came to Itunes. I just have one thing to point out and a guess what is going to happen in the campaign: In one of the previews I have watched the chief is walking to the big sphere and what i think is that when he gets closer it will open to reveal a Forerunner. I don't think it will just be any Forerunner, the Librarian, the, as I have been able to tell from the infomation I have, is the leader of the Forerunners'.
