Umm, Improvements from Beta are mostly little minor things or that I saw, For example; Like the Voice Talk was different, It was just an open chat and no buttons needed to be pressed, You justed talked, And the Proximity Chat was there Openly too. I never checked the voice settings or controls So I don't know how it can be changed. There are other stuff improved for example; Mongoose had its Horn added, And a Medal like Sword Spree actually has the voice announcer guy say it, But I haven't tried to see if he says medals that are awarded at the end of a match like 'Perfection' in slayer or 'Last Man Standing' in Infection.
And the Graphics seem similar the the Beta but you can notice a difference, Kind of like an added shininess or vibrant-ness, And like theres more Shrubbery added to Valhalla, Like more flowers and tall grass instead of just flat ground grass.
Oh man, and the Campaign Graphics are just beautiful, They are just So good and shiny and smooth and perfect. And theres this one moment in the level when a Covenant Cruiser flys Directly over your head And I swear its looks like its real life as if That covenant Cruiser was flying over me like outside my house, And It sounds awesome too.
Ummm, Well, In the Epsilon Theres 2 spartans, and 2 elites, the Regular(I think it was like Mark IV or something like that) and C.Q.B., Then for elites Combat and Assault, And there was the helmet, left shoulder, right shoulder, and body for each. There were a lot of locked ones, And I never unlocked anything, And I'm not sure If I didn't because if Its just not in the Epsilon or If its because I suck at the Meta Game which I only played once(Assuming if that would be how you unlock them, Just speculation, Not fact)
Theres the same amount of colors in the Beta, Theres several more emblems and Backgrounds.
About the Hud, Well, I really Only played as An assault elite(Halo 2 like one[orange one from egm cover]), The Master Chief, and the Arbiter. So the Chiefs Hud is nearly exact from the spartans from the beta, the only thing I noticed is that feint outline of the visor looks a little different. And the elites hud is as you may have seen, Has the Shields bar Curved and there are circles for the grenades rather than squares. And the feint outline for an Elite is weird, It sort of looks like your looking out of the mouth, Since the feint outline is like in each corner, Its rather hard to describe, but yeah, I never tried out the CQB or Combat helmets, But from speculation the only difference(If there is any) would be that feint outline, But thats if theres a difference. Oh and The Hud when a Monitor in Forge, The feint outline is Obviously pretty much just a circle The shield bar is curve, And You can Zoom in Which looks like Your looking directly through the eye of the monitor. Oh yeah the Binoculars(zoomed in) for Elites looks kind of like a movie ticket, Like a rectangle with a half circle cut in the sides.
Heh, Hope all of that answers your questions.
