VEF214 Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Especially the ones that do something upon death. There's nothing more dumberer than shooting a spartan and having hearts or confetti shoot out of them. Just imo, if they have to have them, let me turn on a filter to where they don't show up to me at least. Pestilence, electricity, flames whaaaaat why... it was okay when only a couple people had flames, but now everyone has an armor effect so it is no longer tolerable. Opinions?

WonderWombat Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 I don't even notice armor effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorB77 Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 I dont want them either. I just is not realistic what so ever. And if they do include these again i really wish they would diclude any audio effects added by the armor effect (grunt birthday party) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatanicBagels Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Agreed. There should be a filter that determines whether you can see other peoples armor effects or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 I personally dont mind them. They dont change the gameplay at all, they are just for show so that doesnt bother me. And its not like youre really paying attention to them while your killing them, youre paying attention to killing them lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Immortal Reaver Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 There should not be a filter. That's like saying there should be a filter for armor that you don't like. I agree that there shouldn't be any armor effects though, at least not like the ones in Reach. Maybe the new armor effects could be cool though. Such as like skins. Like battle damaged with bullet marks, maybe a charred look like they ran through fire, things like that. Like wear and tear on the armor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forerunner Reclaimer Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 I don't think they will have it in multiplayer... like pestilence and others.. but maybe flames will be back just will take you a while to earn them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 I think this is really just nitpicking. I'd like to have some diversity. See, I think that they also need to eliminate advantages from Armor Effects. Inclement Weather was the worst in my opinion. It deflects some headshots away while shields are down. It has been proven to happen every now and again. And it also hurts enemies when they get nearby. Armor Effects like that do not need to be in. There are already packages for this in Halo 4.

lemon cup Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 I did not the like Armor Effects in Halo Reach. They seemed inconsistent to the tone of Halo's multiplayer; it was never aimed at being playful or comical, but then someone dies and cheering and confetti pop out of their heads? It ruined part of the immersion for me. I like what Immortal Reaver suggested. Armor Effects that actually make sense and don't drawn extraordinary negative attention to yourself.

Do you honestly get immersed in a Halo match? I can't get really immersed in a Halo game while I am constantly getting dragged into a lobby. Red Dead Redemption had a good idea. Just let the lobbies be a multiplayer space. I think Reach's armor effects were either stupid, like the death ones, or cumbersome, like pestilence, or advantageous, like Inclement weather. They were executed poorly. I think they can be done better. I like the idea of them. It adds a bit of spice to the otherwise bland and common armor pieces.

SykoWolf Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Yeah i agree im over the effects, it makes no sense to have them. They take away from the seriousness (if thats what you call it) of a Halo MP match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_L00s3_Scr3w Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 This is a great idea. I agree. I think it would be awesome to be able to add effects like charring, faded paint, scratches, and maybe even rust! And maybe mud or dirt. I'd buy those.

Pseuderity Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 I would like them to make more sense aesthetically, and remove sound-bytes from them (grunt b-day party). The rust and tear idea is a good example. It would be almost like full skins for your armor in one package. Some could be animated and more expensive and others could be static.

Tesseract Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Lol I don't mind them. It kind of helps me know if I got a headshot without having to move my eyes to the corner of the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 SEE i would buy and use these, but not any of those flaming helmets or love heart BS Those are not Armor Effects. Just a skin. If it's animated, it can be classified as an Armor Effect as Halo imagines them. If it is static, it isn't really an effect. Unless it does some weird filter to your colors.

A_L00s3_Scr3w Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 I love the armor effects from Reach. Especially the birthday party and heart attack. They added a bit of comical festivity to multiplayer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallgeese Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 I use either GBP or IW, I like the bit of difference they add to the game. Its also not hard to ignore them on other people, especially since youre spending most of your time killing them lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
