It does remind me of Borderlands with it's loot system, picking up random weapon and armor drops from enemies, with over thousands of possible gun choices. But that's basically all I found that connects them. It doesn't seem like a Halo game to me, which is ironic, since it was created by Bungie, the people who made Halo. The serious tone with the realistic alien groups reminds me more of ''Mass Effect. And I don't understand why you specifically said World of Warcraft'', when many other MMO's can be played with multiple people in a party (fireteam), or alone. I also want to say that it seems to me that this game is going to feel like an RPG, even when Bungie explicitly says it is "not an RPG, but a shared-world shooter". And the authenticity of this new "genre" is not confirmed. It seems just like a first-person shooter set in an Sci-Fi RPG-like world, such as Dust 514.
