Split-Screen :: The Game-Geek’s Daily Read

New shots, taken off-screen, were captured by a rather enterprising user (no guesses as to what his name could be) and posted on the NeoGAF forums not too long ago of Halo Reach, along with some new information relating to the weapons and HUD. In the shots you can see several new weapons, and what look to be (gasp) environments that don’t look so damn dull? You can also spot what one GAF user referred to as a “Needler Rifle”. Because nothing says you hate snipers like 200 yard far exploding needle in the head.

Other new gameplay details include:

Battle Rifle

it is a one shot battle rifle with 12 rounds, pretty powerful and effective long range.

Perks

This is what the HUD looks like. In the bottom left, you can see your squadmates health and names.
Right above the radar shows what perks you are carrying. When I played there were 3 perks-sprinting, cloaking, and halogram.
The sprinting makes you run when you hold LB,
cloaking makes you invisible (when you cloak your radar jams and you can’t really hear anything around you).
The hologram creates a hologram of yourself, so enemies will shoot at both.
