Halo: Reach Launches 09.14.2010

A whole gang of Spartans... Well Bungie likes to leave clues in their trailers so here's my take:

The Warthog is riding over a large area early on. Major draw distance here. Maybe the campaign will have persistent levels? In any case Halo maps are usually large, but hat's impressive draw distance.
Clearly we're looking at a new graphic engine. The detail on the spartan armor enjoys this jump, and the lighting seems expressive.
New carrier aircraft is cool, and smaller than the Pelican. Seems more 'gameplay able', but why would we the player need dropships? Either the campaign has an expanded squad mechanic or multiplayer will have an increased player count.
The head dog mentions appreciating one of his comrade's skill set. Could be a throw away line, or it could be hinting at class based gameplay(?).
"Leave that lone-wolf stuff behind" seems to be a clear indication that gameplay will move a squad based format.
