Can someone explain to me why?

Can someone explain to me why you can wear every armor in the campaign in multiplayer EXCEPT chiefs’( The hulking tank cortana special armor)? It makes absolutely no sense, and it was the same for halo 4 as well, instead we get a lame re design of the mark 6 for halo 4 and 5… I don’t understand I really wish I could know what people at 343 are thinking.

I actually like that you can’t wear that armor, it makes it more Legendary. If it ever is wearable, it should be the Halo where in the campaign, it is the Chief’s end.

It should’ve been our reward for beating the campaign on legendary solo.
i dont understand why 343i wants to keep it so close to their chest, Bungie didnt go out of their way to make Chief’s MK VI unplayable in 2 or 3. Hell, it was even default.

They probably wanted to make Master Chief’s armor special to him? The Mark 6 was generally worn by a lot of remaining spartan 2s such as Black Team (If they were ever given the chance to upgrade their armors and not perish). However Chief’s armor was supposedly changed because nanobots on-board the UNSC forward unto dawn and the modifications were made by Cortana. What still bothers me is that the rest of blue teams armor looks like they were based off of Master Chiefs yet we got theirs… Probably because the Chief’s design was given to the rest of blue team but were unable to replicate the full design of his armor, much like the failed attempt of the Mark V…
But with the Mark VI it was available to any remaining spartan, but the Mark VI Chief Custom (gonna call it this to save time lol) is his own personal armor. Much like how Bungie made the green on Chief’s armor only for him.
