A_L00s3_Scr3w Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 i wonder how much they will change it, or if it will be the same as the one in reach Hopefully they don't change it too much. And I can't for the life of me decide which one I like more: the one in Reach, the one in Halo 3, or the original. I also like the look of the Mk IV helmet, and the helmet from Halo Wars. Or was the one from Halo Wars the Mk. IV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A_L00s3_Scr3w Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 personally, i dont like the Mk. V but its a classic That it is. But something I haven't seen in any of the "core" Halo games is the Mk. IV helmet. I want to know why that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 That it is. But something I haven't seen in any of the "core" Halo games is the Mk. IV helmet. I want to know why that is. We saw a Mk. IV Grenadier variant. The Mk. V is just a Mk. IV upgraded to work with shields and new armor systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorB77 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 I like most of the helmets. I do not like the ones that have a visor or sensor at the nose. It looks stupid. Anyway. I am sure that i can dress up nicely and go kill all of the ugly players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I know about the Grenadier helmet from Reach. I was talking about the regular Mk. IV helmet from Halo Wars. I think it looks awesome.

sneakylilchief Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 To me it looks like they had a few people design all the armor. Each person sketched it out their way and they added all of their cool features together. But their "cool" features don't work well together and it just looks like an ugly mess. There are impractical grooves, edges, spikes, etc. on everything that bugs me. Whoever made the default armor though did a good job. i know i will definietly make my armor more practical in halo 4 if most of the armors are like these because i fell more at home with the simple base color, and secondary and not colors all overthe place like these pics lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rentless Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 i felt the same, but im 100% positive i won't even care eventually, because i'll just be used to it. doesn't really affect me really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VEF214 Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 It's all a matter of persepctive. Armor that looks cool to you may look very dumb to someone else. And I'm sure the artist coming up with the armor wasn't cackling evily saying this piece is another dumb looking spawn just taking up space. They also have to innovate for the sake of innovation, you can't just bundle up Halo 1/2/3/Reach armor and say look it's Halo 4 armor, people will feel jipped. When I look at them, they look Halo, and that's the only necessary tick in my book they need to join the ranks. Functionality is also a matter of perspective. All in all I'm sure everyone will find a couple of pieces they really like and think will represent them and their tastes well, and that's all that really matters. I'm pre-ordering from Walmart soley for the Oceanic armor, and I've seen tons of hate on it. Not gonna stop me from wearing it for a while, as I think it looks cool. If you can't find any armor you like, close your eyes when you go into 3rd person. This isn't a big issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickman5030 Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 The spartans look different because they are a different generation of spartens. The Master Chief (and his spartan comrades) is a Spartan II (the strongest, fastest, and best generation) after the II came the Spartan III who were cheaper, weaker and basically just expenidble super soldiers. In Halo 4 their is the newest generation of Spartans called Spartan IV's who have NOT been trained from age 7 like previous Spartans but were hand picked from existing ODST squads to get augmentations. Hope this clears things up for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_L00s3_Scr3w Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 ...trained from age 7... Actually, the Spartan II's were trained from age 6. The Spartan III's were orphaned children whose parents were killed by the Covenant; they volunteered, and a lot of them were even younger. And the Spartan IV's include soldiers from every branch of the UNSC military who volunteered, including Spartan III's who were willing to be integrated into the program. At least, this is what I've read in Halo: Glasslands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 The above is correct, the new Spartans are a melting pot of all of branches and personnel who volunteered for the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this clears things up for you i've said this in a previous post: i know WHY the spartans look different. I just want OPINIONS about tthe new look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_L00s3_Scr3w Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 I hated the new look of the Spartans at first; I thought they were ugly as sin. But now I'm starting to like the new armor. I like the default helmet too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
