One of the things I loved most about Reach was the armor customization, I am thrilled that they are bringing back Master Chief (Spartan IIs are where it’s at!) but it made me wonder if there will be any customization to his armor. It seems obvious that the player will no longer have the ability to choose a female. I just don’t want to see Halo take a step back in the customization arena because I think it is a huge draw to gamers (myself included) today. What do you guys think…?
Something i was thinking was that If you complete the campaign on normal or higher you can have your Multiplayer armor appear in campaign. I think that would be a cool little feature.
As long as you unlock armor instead of buying it, i will be happy.
Like Soul Calibur, they should have unlockable, pre-set, characters from the books/games; which sits along side the create-a-spartan feature, from Reach. So, on the one side we have the likes of Kelly, Sam, Fred, Linda, Grace, Headhunters, Grey Team, Forge, Jacob Keyes, Franklin Mendez, John and so forth; and then on the other you can create your spartan from scratch, with a lot more customization possibilities.
Same with Elites, if they return as playable MP characters.

THEY BETTER!!!
I also think your Fire Fight voice should be in MM too. So if your voice is Chief, and if you throw a grenade you would say frag out! In Chiefs voice.
I haven’t been checking up on leaks or anything that way, but when I say costomizing I mean like, different armor, shoulder,helmets etc, also colors and emblems
so far, there’s no leaks on Halo 4, but there has been leaks the big wall that keeps the moronic Bungie forum goes from coming here and spaming these forums.
but as far as customizing armor in Halo 4, the release date is over a year away, and until Halo fest next month, all we know about Halo 4 is it has the Chief and his trusty AI sidekick, it’s been at lest 5 years since Halo 3, it’s being done by 343, the part of the ship they’ve been stuck on is falling apart even more and blowing up, and they’re floating/falling to something big with a big hole with light in the hole. Other than that, nothing is 100% true, if it’s a rumor, don’t believe it, unless it comes from 343 them selves, there’s a good chance that it’s not true.
edit: some one is waving magical forum admin/mod wands around here.
Im sure customization will exist, but you will be MC in Campaign. And I doubt they will not let you pick female.
I hope Elites return and get some real love. ACTUAL playlists, or re-integration after a balancing of their model.
This time they better be customizable the right way.
Are you asking if we should be able to customize Master Chief’s armor in campaign like Noble Six? In a weird way, I think we should have to option to. If you don’t like the idea, simply keep his armor the way it is.
But if this is a another thread about multiplayer customization, here’s my typical response:
"I think it should stick solely with Spartans and Elites. I think they should have EVEN MORE customization areas, maybe at the cost of taking some old ones out. I’d like to use Rainbow Six Vegas 2 as an example.
Helmets should obviously be in. There should be more attachments too. Make every attachment for every helmet. Don’t forget CQB!
Shoulders and chest, obviously. I was fine with the variety in Reach, just don’t make them look like they’re stuck on my Spartan with glue.
Instead of wrist, how about arms? We can then decide if we want this customization right, left, or both arms.
Instead of utility, there should be waist.
Legs should be in. Perhaps maybe only the bottom part of the legs.
Visor color should be in the colors menu, not armor customization. Actually, I wouldn’t cry if visor color is taken out. I use a black visor, but sometimes I just don’t feel like a Spartan without the orange visor."
Hey yeah, I like the idea of visor color bing in the color setting instead of armor, I’d love it if there was Blood Red.
And yes, Elites need to make a come back, with customization of their armor, and I want to see parts of Elite armor from Halo 2, all the way up to Halo Reach, I want to be able to put on some of the cool elite helmets from Halo 2, some of the bits from Halo Reach, and some of the bits from Halo 3. And I want more colors, in Reach’s beta there was COLOR, in the release, there wasn’t even half the colors we could pick from.
I tink what they need to do is start out with less armor at first so they dont take up too much time but change the game engine so armor can easily be added to the game via title update.
P.S for the love of everthing give john a crotch piece! it looks so weird without one and ahhhh i cant get the thought out of my head! so please just give him one so the guys playing halo dont feel akward every cutscene
I think a good addition would be the ability to apply patterns that are affected by armor colors to your armor, like camouflage patterns that could be customized by players.
So many great ideas in this thread!
I loved the armor customization in Reach. Moar = Bettah!
Campaign belongs to the Chief. customization after game complete would be welcomed.
Adding the Visor into the color selection would be great.
in fact why don’t they just use a color wheel for the whole of the armory/emblems? from black(not steel lol) to white.
Camo patterns would be awesome.
343 could add in a pattern that takes on the appearance of the background of Waypoint with all the little diamonds etc.
Crotch plate = needed
