Victory Element

the helmet attachments were something that I missed in halo 4. They displayed much more personality and realistic detail on your spartan, rather than just changing a few color patterns with armor skins. I 'm not sure why this feature was removed, but i'm hoping that it will return in future halo games. Maybe we will even be able to put attachments on chest pieces or legs, such as combat knives, ammo clips, etc for some extra detail

343i has made their mistakes and have received plenty of criticism from halo fans. Now just give them a chance to learn from those mistakes. It is quite obvious that the population on halo 4 has dropped tremendously, so 343 will need to make some smarter decisions to keep the halo fan base intact. Almost everything that they have received is negative feedback, so is crucial that we try to keep their confidence up and give them a little hope. Imagine how you would feel if you were in their current position

It would be very cool to have in the game, but as others said, 343I is trying to cram another game in within a year so they likely won't go into that much detail

I think you mean, "make a more creative way to teabag"

This is a community forum. We are not the official 343I website

i just did a little research and it says that the planet onyx was destroyed, but the shield world inside of the planet survived the nuclear warheads. The shield world is now an ONI research facility known as Trevelyan source: http://www.halopedia.org/Onyx

do you know who made this post originally??

Yes, mendicant bias did work with the flood. He was originally a forerunner AI, but he was corrupted by a gravemind and he changed sides. He took the warships of his entire forerunner fleet and used them as an offensive force against the forerunners. He provided the flood with all strategic knowledge that he had from the forerunners, and he was able to use organized military tactics to direct powerful flood assaults

I think this would be too much of a problem to implement. Everyone would make their Spartan as small possible so they are less of a target, and it would be hard to maintain regular hit boxes for bullet magnetism

Clearly a Spartan II would win over a Spartan IV

Thank you so much. Keep up the good work

A fragment of mendicant bias survived on a forerunner warship that was a part of his fleet. I believe that the covenant did find the fragment, and used it as some type of energy source. It is still possible that mendicant bias can return as a threat This was interesting to read. I haven't seen anything that speculates a plot like this before

US has GSD. That's almost an automatic win for us

@Brony I apologize for not using the regular signature application sheet, but I don't really need a signature. It seems that you overlooked my quick post, which may be intentional because of the format, or just a simple accident. I would just appreciate a response, being that this isn't a typical request

I have the ability to solve all of the world's problems inside of my head, but I can't do any of it in reality

I'm still waiting to figure out how Bacon Shelf came up with his name.... I can understand that he likes bacon, but the shelf thing....

Another thing 343I should do is take a step back, and look at the big picture. Rather than trying to add more new features to the game, they need to focus on keeping the gameplay simple and fun. Of course, there are areas like forge and armor customization that will naturally become more complex, but this will not hurt the progress of the game. In things like campaign and war games, 343I needs to stop trying to make it "their own halo". They should examine the qualities of previous halos that made bungie so successful, and strive to improve on those factors instead of trying to become so unique. I am not saying that the game should not evolve, but rather that it should evolve along the path that it first started on. Just making a reskinned halo 3 would not be the goal of this either, that is too cod-like.

The complaints about survivor do seem somewhat valid. It is still possible that the player who destroys the vehicle gets rewarded with some points, but we don't have enough details yet I wonder of this new perk will be affected by a Spartan laser shot

I thought it would be cool to learn the origin of some people's gamertags or username on the forums. I know that some people have a background story to their names, while others have some strange madness going on in their heads My name, Victory Element, just came as an epiphany to me. I had been thinking for days, trying to get the prefect gamertag. A name that was intimidating, yet sounded professional, and then it hit me. My story is terribly boring, so I hope to read some great ones here

Hi

Hello, i just wan top let you know that i am not here to get a whole signature. I was wondering if either of you guys could do some effects on a small image that i would like to use for my profile picture If it is possible, could one of you please add some gold details to the picture, just like the gold tints that are in my current signature http://www.bungie.net/img/profile/avatars/ODST01.gif thank you so much

there have been 3 new armor mods that were recently announced and discovered for halo 4. The first 2 will be available for all players within the next few months (no release date yet), and the 3rd will be included in the Champions Bundle DLC. Here are the names and the descriptions of the new mods Survivor- Ejects your player safely from a vehicle before it explodes from too much damage Recharge- Speeds up the shield recharging process (not the same as shielding*) Resistor- allows your player to maintain full mobility and dexterity while taking incoming fire * note that Recharge is not the same as Shielding. Shielding reduces the time that that you must not be damaged before your shields will begin to recharge. Recharge speeds up the recharging process itself Any thoughts or concerns about these new additions that will be coming?

Well, you did seem to have some good speculations, but they were thrown around with no order or connections between your ideas. I wouldn't quite call this an analysis of the plot, because it is just some factors that will come into play in the future. Anyways, it does seem logical that ONI would be trying to greatly weaken the elites. The elites were the largest threat to humans in the human-covenant war and they served as military leaders for the covenant. They basically held the covenant together until they were later replaced by the brutes. ONI most likely doesn't want another religious war to occur from some radical elites trying to build up another army with goal of wiping out humanity. ONI doesn't seem to trust the Sangheili, even if many of them do not want to fight the humans any more. They fear that another war will break out in the future and that elites will most likely be the cause of it. Now that humanity has the Infinity, Spartan IVs, and some new forerunner tech, they appear to be the more dominant race, because the elites have their own internal conflict. Humans will most likely go on a "power trip" and try to display the superiority that they gained. The actions of ONI in the future could play into the rumors that halo 5 will be the "darkest" halo yet On another note, the precursors are most likely alive. Many of them were killed off in a ruthless rebellion by the forerunners, but others fled the galaxy to find safety. It is very likely that they have rebuilt their population in an alternate galaxy, and may choose to return at any point in time. I am not sure what their motives would be though, if they were to come back. Because they wanted humanity to inherit the Mantle from them, they may return to ensure that humanity has completed their obligations or something of that matter. Or, they may come to reclaim the Mantle that was once theirs The precursors did also create the flood as a punishment for the forerunners. Not all of the halo rings have even been encountered yet, so the flood will likely be contained on all of those facilities. The flood was not completely defeated in the events of halo 3. This will probably be an important factor in making this the "darkest" halo game and for the last part of your speculations, wasn't onyx destroyed?? I thought i remember reading that a team of spartans set of nuclear warheads in the core of the shield world

The vehicles in the water appeared to be frozen in ice, so that's where I began to get confused
