Are we really gonna keep this customization?

Seeing some comments about CE and 2 being the worst im gonna be clear, this is armor I’m talking about not coloring your Spartan. Now Lets all admit this is the second worst customization in halo (the first is Halo MCC) but are we really gonna stay with this idea for halo 6. Now I will admit I haven’t ran into a look alike Spartan at all in halo 5, but the point of customization is to do more than change heads and suits. Do you think halo 6 should keep this. Or go for customization like halo 3,4, or even reach.

Reach, also stop reskinning things and have 4 variants. Let us customize the armor. Bring back eod also.

Hopefully not, but at the end of the day I’m happy if we get Recruit Charred. I think they should go back to the Halo 4 customization, where we’d include about 50 or so quality armor sets (not 200) where we may have some quality variants like Recruit Charred, that have something unique to them and not just white lines.

I like Reach’s customization, I’m just unsure how the armor attachments would work.

I’d like customization like Reach, but I don’t really mind the customization for H5. There needs to be a lot of fine-tuning to it though before it works right.

  • Variants are ridiculous and most are unnecessary because all that is different is another stripe, or a third color that can’t be changed. - Organization is a must, I’m not sure if they ever plan on fixing the interface so that all the variants are next to the default, or putting them in alphabetical order instead of the order obtained. - They need cod pieces, I mean, you’re simply leaving your genitals exposed for the world to take pot shots at. I know it’s just a game, but it’s stupid not to have something like that. It doesn’t even need to be a full out space diaper like MCC, but they had no trouble with the armor sets from the Memories of Reach update. - Lastly (not sure if it fits), but we need some armor to work toward. I know we have Achilles, but that just brought out the worst in a lot of the community. People who wanted it were willing to stoop to farming kills any way they could. Give us an armor that’s unlockable through campaign, commendations, games played, or time spent in-game. Something we could do by ourselves without being forced to join a company and grind it out with people we don’t even play with. So many lone wolf companies showed up just so people would join for Achilles (I know I did).As I said before though - I’m totally cool with H5’s customization, even if I prefer the in depth Reach/H4 style of customization.

Hear yeah i would be happy with either halo 3 like or 4 reach was a little overkill if you think about it

I just want shoulders back. Lol imagine the outcry of Reach’s customization combined with the REQ system. Buy a gold pack and get a helmet mounted flashlight. I would be livid. No thank you.

Why do people care for cod pieces so much? and yeah organization would be great for me. But reach had some unnecessary things like thigh attachments, wrist equipment and helmet attachments. Why did we need any of those things. And also the reason memories of reach had cod peices was because it was part of the orginal armor so of course they added it.

I know it’s a silly thing to focus on, but just think about how most armors leave a large portion of your torso, groin, back, and buttocks wide open. No armor. Why wouldn’t you put even a plate of armor there? It’s completely practical to have your body covered up to protect your spartan from bullets. I’ll repeat it again - I know it’s silly, I know it’s a game, but it’s something that just seems odd to me.

And I agree, Reach had a lot of little things that weren’t necessary, as you said, the thigh attachments and wrist equipment aren’t really anything special. It’s nice to have the option, but I wouldn’t mind leaving those out.

I also understand that the cod pieces were added to the Memories of Reach armor because they are inspired by the original armor, but I just think it would look more natural to have them on all the armor sets.

Finally, once again, I’m totally fine with the way H5 did armor and customization, there are just a few small tweaks I would make if I was the person in charge.

Sooo what was the first? Halo 1 and 2? I think we should go back to reach style armor and customization. Even if we have lots if armor i hope we get attachments to it. It would alo be cool if we could pick diferent paint jobs or armor wear and tear.

I think part of it is due to how we unlock the bulk of armor. Even if they introduced a lot more feat-based unlocks, you’d still be playing around with too much RNG to make grinding multiple armor pieces particularly rewarding.

If you got one shoulder piece in the req system, there’s a good chance you’d be waiting a long time to get the rest of the set. At least with H5 you’re not gonna get too screwed since there’s only two parts to unlock a set. (Although I think H5 does try and weight the next pack towards unlocking the matching helmet or armor)

With Destiny’s RNG, the top-tier gear(i.e raid) is gained from a much smaller loot table. In Halo 5, you’d be trying to get one piece out of probably nearly a thousand options, assuming they didn’t weight it under the hood.

Halo mcc customization you could only wear a full set you couldnt mix or match just a full suit

i dont really care

As long as they keep EVA leonov. I think they should combine Halo 4’s Customization with Reach’s and we’ll all be happy.

What I want in Halo 6 is the armor customization from Halo Reach or Halo 4. The one in Halo 5 is the second worst, in my opinion.

Reach customization all the way

If the community pushes enough, we could get a chance of getting a better customization in any kind of update instead of waiting for Halo 6… This topic should get a strong base

Give me a good looking Mark V helmet, not some -Yoink- Mark V A variant

This. I completely agree, but sadly it won’t happen while the req system exists. The req system rakes in profits due to having multiple pointless ultra rare variants of common ugly poorly designed armour and helmets taking up space as “filler”. 343 can easily do a better customization system than reach, but it would be no where near as profitable. That’s just how it is.

Reach customization will always be superior.
