Frank O’Connor also released some new details concerning the ability to see others using Forerunner vision.

“”Not really. As will become clear. I imagine a competitive player with good situational awareness would try it once and eschew it for something else.” In another post, O’Connor further clarified with, “You cannot use Forerunner Vision to see players anywhere on the map. Absolutely not.”

On the subject of random weapon respawns O’Connor says that it will not be a totally random process

“The weapon drops are not ‘random’,” O’Connor explained. “They are telegraphed and in some ways, predictable. There is variation, however. Map control will still be key, but yes, changed. Custom games will be heavily customizeable, and initial playlists will be clean and focused. Players will not be presented with stacksof lists, but there will be variety for different tastes.”
