What was your armor color in Combat Evolved?

[highplainsdrifter]

Didn't see this anywhere that thought it might be cool if people talked about how their armor used to look and also talk about how it's changed with the new armor variants in Reach and why you look the way you do now.

 

There's three questions in the poll; color, why you picked that color, and if you've changed it throughout the games. The votes are public and multiple choice.

 

So tell us what your Mjolnir looked like and why if you like, especially if the options in the poll aren't sufficient. Or just talk about the past and future of armor colors in general.

 

I've always had white because I thought it looked cool, I like to change it sometimes when I play campaign though

 

btw anyone who also has Reach should check this out

i always like to give my spartan the edge in any way shape or form, so always camo my spartan up and put the smallest armor on him. her, in reach. your profile shrinks about five percent if you change it to female. the only time i strayed was in halo 3, because i got recon and all white looked awesome.

yes your profile is smaller as a girl but the hitbox is always the same....unless your a stealthy type then it is pointless to lower your profile...also most people have flaming helmets because they like getting shot in the face

[CandiBunni]

My armour colour in Combat Evolved was always pink. Why? Because pink is my favourite colour.

[highplainsdrifter]

I tried using a female and couldn't really get used to it. I just use smaller shoulder armor and all the black upgrades I can find.

too bad. at least i dont have flaming a flaming helmet. actually, i think i might... it doesnt show up in the armory preveiw

[Son Of Anarchy]

Combat Evolved was the only game with a black armor color which really sucked. I was hoping they would have brought that back with Anniversary but they didn't.

It didn't really look all that black though. To be honest, I found that it resembled more of a steel colour than actual black.

[The Director]

They need an ODST black, not just steel colored. That would be cool as an armor highlight, or even as the primary. Mine used to be black back in the day, but I changed it around a bit when Halo 3 came out, and now in Reach I'm white most of the time.

[yah bono here]

i find it doesnt even matter that much anymore now that they took out armor detail.

[highplainsdrifter]

does anyone have a problem with the MK V and VI shoulder pads looking like they're kind of glued on not really form fitted?

[Tommy]

what do you mean?

in halo 3, you had armor primary, secondary and detail. detail would show up no matter if you were on the red team, a vip, or a zombie.

[Master Chief Spartan 117]

your spartan is your spartan no matter what your color, armour, or emblems together we are spartans. in the original halo games most people choose whatever color suited them and made them stick out. in halo 3 and reach things changed because of clans and some people couldnt choose there color. my favroite color for all the games would have to be black in the original halo games, and sage on halo reach.

[highplainsdrifter]

 

I just thought people could reminisce and share

Wow I don't remember armor detail at all though, guess it was laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame... just joshin' guy

[FIREN4]

I always use black, every now and then I switch to green. But yes, I am most of all the time black.

[Unease Peanut]

I had Cobalt I liked that color blue (which is my fav colour) so much altough it is not an option anymore i chose primairy is because I still use the darkest colour blue

[highplainsdrifter]

Is an expanded color wheel that includes the original colors a good idea? and on a related note

Do you think Halo 4 should try to return to a armor sheen more similar to the first one, or is the current and slightly more matte version better?

[Son Of Anarchy]

I still liked it

[Quantum]

I dunno, I always white. I don't know why, I just did. It's pretty cool.

That was my Halo 3 armor color. White and Red. Oh ya.

[DaveAtStateFarm]

Red. Maybe because Red it the first thing you would notice in a big group of Spartans. Hm??

[Dubness2]

Black, because it's badass?
