About the digital content in the LE...

Is it true that everything in the standard season pass is not in the LE season pass? Found a thread via /r/ halo (yes, I actually browse /r/halo) that said the LE season pass doesn’t come with the helmets and emblem, the recruit armor is the first set of armor for everyone and the specializations can be unlocked in either edition by pre ordering at a GameStop, thus, making the only exclusive thing in the LE the “prime” skin…

Is that true? If it is, much sad I will have :frowning:

Unfortunately, it is true. The LE’s War Games Map Pass is different from the regular one, so you don’t get Scanner or Strider. It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me.

Aww that’s a let down :frowning:

Basically this^

That was snickerdoodle before bs angel told us all that Scanner, Strider, and the Falcon emblem were WGMP only. Not part of LE.

Can you read the whole thread he posted that in, you would be very enlightened.

Snickerdoodle is pretty great but she doesn’t know everything.

Well my mistake, but I doubt 343i would let a thread that size go without giving a clearer, more definite answer by this coming week. . . and that answer better come with the news that LE gets those helmets too!

I’m already ticked off that the Recruit armor isn’t special to the LE in the least. I mean come on, a skin is rarely, if ever going to be noticed compared to an entirely different set of armor!

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a different thread. . . needless to say, I’m cancelling my LE pre-order and going with standard edition. . . there’s just not much point in LE considering I can find most of the physical stuff as photos/videos online.

Just FYI, Snickerdoodle is a she. She said that before bs angel confirmed on Twitter that the LE Map Pass is different and doesn’t have Scanner or Strider.

Haha -Yoink- that was a mistake. And yes but she still got it wrong and thought it was out of the question that they were different like many people who come on to these forums.

Completely agree with this the physical stuff has never been great but at least decent… but now that the digital stuff is pathetic it doesn’t really make it worth the extra cash.

You didn’t see the 50 page thread on LE and its devaluing?

It’s very sad. Hopefully they resolve this problem.

I’m human too! :slight_smile: Like many, many other people, I jumped to conclusions and made an assumption I shouldn’t have. Turns out, that assumption was incorrect and I now have to eat my words as the WGMP that comes with the LE DOES NOT net you the DLC helmets that the stand-alone WGMP does. Logically, that assumption made sense but I guess MS’s marketing department is a little lacking in the logic department.

I suggest you read through/further this discussion in this thread as it’s directly relevant:

And yes, I am a girl. :slight_smile:
