Remember in Halo 3 when Spark flipped out and kill Johnson? He turned red.
Perhaps this blue-to-orange color change signifies hostile intent. That's my best guess at it, but doesn't it make some sense?
EDIT: Sorta ninja'd.

No, I'm trying not to remember that sad momentOriginally Posted by DarkHalcyon
I'm trying not to remember how goddamned corny and contrived it was.
Always blue you say? Indeed... As you can clearly see, Forerunner technology isn't always silver and blue, and like Spartan kindly pointed out, Monitors have always had different colours. But, if you really must have your blue, here it is for you :
Happy now? Good, let's move on.
Just because there are some awesome scripted epic moments in the game, it doesn't mean that it will completely ruin the gameplay. But if you're so butthurt about epic moments, then you don't need to buy the game. Will anybody care? No. Is there any point whining about it then? No, there isn't.
Most HUD elements are smaller, asides from the motion tracker, which is a bit bigger. However, everything is much more transparent, so it doesn't get in the way as much. And what's the problem with seeing a video of whoever is talking? For Cortana, it only seemed to be in first-person cinematics or areas where you're not fighting anything. Is that really so bad? Perhaps it is a bit more complex, but barely.
As for the lore question, you didn't answer anything. What is it about the lore that's bothering you? Is it the colours again? Or is there an actual legit part of the lore that we've seen so far that's annoying you? What kind of facts are they changing? What kind of "shitty lore" are they adding in? Explain!
I know that the weapon is a shotgun, and it somewhat resembles a human shotgun so that players can look at it and recognize what it is. But even then, it's vastly different. I mean, honestly, do you want Forerunner weapons to be fucking triangles or something? Or maybe, you know, Forerunners have a sense of logical weapon design. The Carbine looks somewhat like a Battle Rifle just as much as that weapon looks like a human shotgun, and perhaps even more so. I don't see you bitching about that.
Seriously, if you're just going to bitch about every small aspect of the game, why even bother?
Oh, and I just noticed, the Creeper and Knights in that second last image look different than the orange ones. Could it be rank variations maybe?

It's Metroid Prime.
with dual analog sticks.
and halo.
yes please.
E:
Uh... wouldn't that fall into lore considering Forerunners ~= Huuumans?
Think about it for a bit.

The fact that they were used about 3 times in that entire 3 minute demo is what scared me. Like I said, its not a movie, its a game. If your going to have cool cinematic parts put them in a cinematic esque area, not a gameplay area. Valve does this perfectly, e.g. Portal 2.
It's just more clutter. It dosent need to be there. Just becuase it didnt show in non-gameplay sections here dosent mean it wont in others.
They are destroying the mystery that has encased the Forerunners since day 1. They started with the books (the forerunner books), then the terminals in Halo 1, and now they are probably going to rape even more in this new trilogy. In the books they changed lore which will probably effect whats going on in this game. Overall theyve explained so much with the Forerunners that its literally become an extremely old topic and most people who are deeply involved with the story have heard it a million times.
It's a game. Half of the things in Halo are not logical and dont need to be. If its a different gun give its own unique design so the player can distincly remeber it by, for example one guy could be like that *insert cool name here* gun is awesome, instead of *forerunner shotgun*. Like you just said, functionality does not equal design. So theres no reason the Forerunner weaponry cannot be different and unique in its own style.
Because I have a right called "freedom of speech" and its also a community forum where people come to say what they think. Sel does a perfectly good job over in the debate section doing that.
If you dont like what I think then I really could give less a damn about it. Same goes with your opinion, no reason I need to care about yours either.
I would ask Greg Bear about what he has to say to that.
