The OP is a friend of mine who has contributed a lot to these forums. He is in no way a troll, and is in fact a very helpful person. Please think twice next time before posting things about people who you do not know.
All he is trying to do is bring to light that there may be a possibility of the console edition of Halo 4 coming with an exclusive FOTUS skin, instead of exclusive armor. We all have seen how crazy the bonuses have become, so there is indeed a possibility of him being right.
Any chance a 343 member will personally come in to clear this all up?

Just wow… What website will you believe. The Official Halo Website… or a retailer that just copy/pastes information, and often old information, into a place-holder for the video game of choice. Threads like these make it ever more apparent why 343i doesn’t bother posting on here… 5 pages… lol just lol.

Just more information pointing in the direction that FOTUS is an exclusive armor for the Halo 4 console, not a skinned version of an armor everybody gets…

CIO WEB
Venator RPTR
Oceanic CRCT
Gungnir PULS
I think someone didn’t look close enough.

…
Please stop spreading lies and rumors. We all know that the Halo 4 edition console comes with an armor skin for the FOTUS armor.

…did everyone just skip over this post?
I don’t know…the fact that all of the sites have a copied and pasted description kinda brings red flag up for me.

Probably.

it never said armor skin. It always said armor until today i’m guessing. I honestly have no idea what’s going on anymore. I fall asleep for two hours and wake up to this lol. Hope they can clarify this. I was trying to stay positive thinking my new console would have an exclusive armor. but i honestly wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not included anymore.
@darklord413 no everyone has read it, I’m sure, but it doesn’t clear up a damn thing IMO… But what cleared things up for me was my local GSM stating clearly that the FOTUS content comes with the console…

The thing is, she also said that the LE wasn’t getting the helmets and emblem that come with the normal map pass, and now they do. Things can change.
However, I’m not committed to either side yet. I don’t know who’s right and I just wish someone could clear this all up once and for all.
BS Angel might clear this up tomorrow in the bulletin…hopefully.

I read that, but is the armor still 100% exclusive to the console? Nobody aside from console purchasers can get this? That is what I would like to have an answer to.

That was august 12th. BS angel also said that the strider and scanner wouldn’t come with LE, now it is, so obviously things change.
> pre-order cancelled
This post is bad for a couple reasons: First, you spent almost 400 dollars just to get armor. Second, you cancelled your pre-order because you believed someone on a forum before you decided to get more information for yourself.
I’m sure it still comes with it.

The dates say August.

Think he was joking.
We just want to know if the armor is going to be exclusive to the Xbox only.

Bsangel confirmed that the map passes were different but also stated that this was being looked into at the same time. Never has anyone once stated the the Fotus armor will not be coming with the console.
Also the clarify some things about Fotus becoming available to everyone. Bsangel stated that the LE exclusives will most likely remain exclusive. The mention of a download for content was ONLY referring to the various retailer pre-order bonuses.
