Okay 343, I really like the armour abilities, they’re very great fun…
BUT: You do realise, that if they are in Halo 4 you RUINED THE STORY! Armour abilities where only in REACH, so therefore, we can just assume that they were discontinued or Master Chief never had access to them, and that’s why we don’t see them in the later games.
If ANY armour ability is in Halo 4 it’ll ruin the whole legitimacy of the entire trilogy.
SAME with voice actors! If Steve Downes and Jen Taylor aren’t back, it’ll ruin the entire new trilogy. I would find it VERY HARD to actually get into the story and really believe that what is happening is legitimate in the Halo storyline.
TL;DR: Halo 4 can’t have armour abilites and the original voice actors must return.
EDIT: If anybody tells me I spelt “armour” wrong, I’m Canadian and we didn’t invent an incorrect way to spell words because we were succeeding in a rebellious manner.

Or if they are in the game they could be like they hinted at “there will be a logical progression from AAs and equipment”
They were in reach because reach was a Military base that often created new weapons and tech So there were AAs. but AAs evolved into Equipment used in halo 3, and logically they would evolve again into something more sophisticated as well as being balanced. Know what will be included is unknown but seeing as equipment was just the AAs evolved i would assume they will definitely not be as they were in reach
AAs
Active camo Evolved into active camo and radar jammer
Drop shield Evolved into Bubble shield and Re-generator
Then there are all the other equipments and AAs
whats the next step
IF the progression was
AAs—Equipment—HAlo 4 style
Who says they’ll ruin the story? Perhaps most of the tech was glassed on Reach, but keep in mind this is 5 years after Halo 3 (which had Bubble Shields and the other equipment. Not entirely the same as armor abilities, but not entirely different either), so they’ve had time to recover some lost tech…
As for the voice actors, there’s no way short of hell freezing over or the voice actors dying that 343i would have someone else voice those roles in a Halo game. Steve Downes is already confirmed, and as far as i know Jen Taylor is as well.
