Spectral Jester Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 As part of the final transition of Halo services, 343 will begin unlocking Halo 3 Recon armor for all Halo 3 players in the very near future. This process, which will be done in waves, is expected to last several days. As always, thank you for your patience, and 343 will have more details for you next week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTz KeeFy Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Thats cool I guess but for those of us who earned it by getting those ridiculous acheivements may not appreciate that lol. The game is on it's last leg tho, doesn't bother me too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Biggles Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 nice, so everyone who didn't do the Vidmasters gets them? At least now no onecan complain they don't have it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rassl3r Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Cool, but was it really necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockGazm Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 I only had one vidmaster left and that was to complete the Halo 3 campaign with 4 people on legendary using the ghosts (I think). Nobody on my friendslist really played Halo 3 as much anymore (Nobody wanted to do vidmaster), so I couldn't do it. At least now I can get it but I would have prefered to have earned it as I feel it shows accomplishment and by that it makes to you feel good.

ZB-85 Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 The Recon armor looks cool. It kinda looks like the one from Reach a little. Alot of people are using that helmet now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockGazm Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 The Recon armor looks cool. It kinda looks like the one from Reach a little. Alot of people are using that helmet now. That's why I'd prefere to only use the Recon chest piece, and just default for everything else. I kinda wish they didn't give it to everybody but I understand that there was no point in not giving the armour out to all since Halo 3 is quite an old-ish game now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancer Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 I'm kind of upset, but at the same time; Halo 4 will be out soon so I really don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Recon... Soon as I got this, I jumped straight to Team Slayer. No wonder I won, just having the Recon helmetelped me pummel my way through a Force Cornel. Ah... Halo 3... Thanks 343. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yah bono here Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 i think there should be the word 'douchbag' eched into the visor for everyone who didnt get the achievements. that would seem to make everyone happy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azaxx Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 YAY, even though i wanted to get it legit, its still recon.....ill only use for a day though, i like rogue helmet better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archangel Tyrael Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Well, i can't get online to get recon, but after this is over i can still get online and it will get unlocked? (my halo 3 disk is messed up i have to buy another). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTallmidgeT24 Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 i got recon but all i rly ever use are the shoulders (sometimes the helmet) because i use the katana as my chest and either the rogue, or security as my helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Instinct Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I think that it is an ok idea but why didnt they just unlock flaming armor for us and bring back double xp weekends? I spent 4 months trying to unlock those vidmasters and when I finally unlocked endure I was the happiest person on the planet. I can see how well that 343 are trying to say "we are trying to be like bungie" but bungie wouldnt have unlocked recon for everyone for more than 24 hours. Plus when my friend got recon without getting a single vidmaster, he claimed that he was like "MLG Pro" which ticked me off because he went 9:20 to RECRUITS and he is a lieutenant. I just think people like me who unlocked recon could've have gotten the flaming chestplate instead of something we already had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveAtStateFarm Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 For the people who EARNED recon, I think they should get a special armor/something cool In Halo4, I see this in other games(similar) It would be nice. WE EARNED RECON! WASTED OUR LIVES! ENDURE! BRUTE CHIEFTANS! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WE EARNED RECON! WASTED OUR LIVES! ENDURE! BRUTE CHIEFTANS! I knew eventually we'ed get free Recon. So I never went after the Vidmasters. And then what do you know? We all get free Recon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIREN4 Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I just found out that I look horrible in Recon armor. Precisely. Recon Armor imo is good except for the helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
