The opening cinematic of Halo 5 may not have featured the Master Chief, but it did have Nathan Fillion kicking a whole lot of Covenant butt while outrunning a crashing carrier ship. The trailer follows Agent Locke along with his Fireteam Osiris as they drop straight into a Covenent/ Forerunner conflict in an attempt to rescue or capture Halsey, who if you remember has been hanging out with the covenant since the last game.
Already the trailer is being praised for including a more diverse group of playable spartans, something the game has been lacking since it's inception. However, about the same amount of players are wondering where the Chief is. We knew that he wouldn't be playing as much of a central role as the previous game (as he is apparently being hunted by this particular team of spartans), but he is nowhere to be found in this trailer.
