Capes/Cloaks for customization

Before you ask, no I don’t mean a literal cape like superman. I’m taking about cloaks (like Master Chiefs poncho thing in that teaser for Halo 5) and little capes like Boba Fetts from Star Wars or even think about Jun from Halo Reach and how he has that snipers nest cloak wrapped around his neck. There’s so much you could do with this idea, and it’d also add even more to Inifinites customization than even Halo Reach had! Something new and never done before in any game! There’s so much 343i could do with it like different sizes, colour schemes, and types of cloaks/capes. You’d have to make it so the cape or cloak your spartan is wearing has physics, but wouldn’t get in your way in first person view.

I think a Gillie Suit type armor would be cool. Like the concept art for Juun.

Spartan bush. I am so entirely down for this.

I’d want my Spartan to have a bandana on his helmet like Bardock from DBZ or Rambo. Why? Just because.

I’d like that as long as it wouldn’t interfere with hitboxes. Visually it could effect gameplay though, maybe just have it in social and in ranked you couldn’t have anything covering your spartan so everything is 100% visible.

As long as it wasn’t too crazy, I am down for this.

Heck let me design my Spartans face and go without a helmet as well.

Reach had a chest piece that had a cloak on it so it’s possible we’ll get something similar

So you want it to be destiny…

That would be pretty sick!

Please no helmetless Spartans…

To OP - as long as it doesn’t interfere with hitboxes, I’d love to see cloaks as a customisation option!

To be honest, I’d rather have the Robotic arms return

Ehh, not too overboard. I think Jun’s armor was about the extent this should go.

I wanna Warhammer it though. I was (mostly) kidding about the helmetless part. But if they for some reason add a social space I’d like it.

Not a fan of this idea In halo

sounds a little weird for unsc soldiers to be wearing capes and cloaks while not going rogue. then again we have race cars, pizza rifles, boom co guns, and whale helmets in halo 5 so who really cares at this point?

I’m sure there are plenty of armored characters with cloth on their armor across a vast many different sci fi universes including game specific universes, I don’t think this will make it look too much like destiny, unless they kept spartan abilities.

how would it effect gameplay?

no helmets=being headshot by any weapon whether you have shields or not. and if they wanted to be accurate to canon I’d pretty sure you’d be shieldless. it’d all be swat at that point.

Not being able to see the spartan’s body

Maybe not something as large as a cape or cloak, but a small piece of cloth similar to Jun’s chest piece in Halo Reach would be cool.

It could be part of a larger category of prestige attachments for your multiplayer Spartan. Little bobbles and trophies that you can stick onto their armor. I’m thinking something similar to special operation insignia, types of knives, pouches, dice, charms, and maybe more crazy rare stuff like a monster skull mounted on your shoulder pad (maybe not something as hardcore as an Elite skull cause, who knows, we could be playing alongside Elites and that would be a little awkward around the water cooler).

oh well yeah that makes sense. guess they could always add stripes or some symbol to the larger cloth pieces so they don’t straight up blend in with the environment.

It really doesn’t fit with the astetics and it could very easily reveal ppl’s positions making ppl have advanteges over those who want to use the cape.

This sounds very cool. And if playable elites return, then they could have a ship masters cloak as a cosmetic
