Shapeshifting in Halo 4

Games Other Halo
1

I think the new enemy, or at least one of the new enemies may be capable of: shapeshifting. Shapeshifting could be a new challenge for Master Chief and players. I’m thinking “robotic” shapeshifters. I say this because the Halo 4 logo is very dramatic compared to previous Halo trailers, in the way it shapes itself. The Halo 4 logo makes me think of shapeshifting, so that’s why I’m guessing there might be an enemy that can shapeshift.

When drones were introduced into Halo 2, that offered us a new challenge. Drones are capable of flight and they attack in swarms. They are somewhat similar to Sentinels, but much more agile. I’m guessing we might see shapeshifters similar to the design of Sentinels in Halo 4.

Anyone else who thinks this might be possible? Or do you think the new enemy might be capable of other abilities?

Transformers.
Gears Of War.
Dead Space.
The Thing.

These sprang to mind pretty quickly.

Ha! Shapeshifters are just… weird. Never liked the idea in any game.

Seriously, though. No.

You mean like the Pure forms in Halo 3?

Halo3 flood could shape shift.

Weren’t there shape shifting Flood in Halo 3?

LOL… you could say Transformers. But you don’t have to imagine “robotic” shapeshifters as Transformers. Just look at the way the Halo 4 logo shapes itself, and I would imagine if shapeshifting was one of the enemy’s abilities - it would be similar in style to how the Halo 4 logo shapeshifts. I’m not sure about enemies looking like Transformers, but enemies shapeshifting in some kind of way. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6UL63Zo-uo

Pure forms could shapeshift in Halo 3, yeah I believe so.

I’d like to see a Sentinel/Robotic enemy that can transform into different modes, like the Flood Pure Forms in Halo 3.

i dont think the enemy will shapeshift but maybe the tech will, cause forerunner tech has been known to shapeshift( EG. the didacts ship in cryptum)
