Let me begin by saying that I don’t like weapon skins. I’m a guy who likes realism in games, and aside from Bungie and 343i’s insistence to not properly show that spartans weigh like 1,000 pounds (Looking at you splatter mechanics). I mean, this is a game that’s set 500 years in the future, and pretty much everything that wouldn’t make sense in other games (Reticle, radar, unlimited sprint, taking bullets without dying or being injured), is explained by things in the universe. However, I really don’t like weapon skins. I realize that multiplayer is all a training simulation to prepare spartans for real combat, and I know that spartans are known to be given freedoms with their customization (Colors, weapon skins, armor, etc.). However, I’m not a fan of skins that are just ridiculous (Looking at you Spicy Locke, Mr. Chief, Pizza AR, Fry Magnum), and with that said, I love the Full Moon Magnum skin. It’s fantastic. Not only is the magnum my favorite gun in Halo 5, and the wolf my favorite animal, but it’s simple. It’s not something that’s over the top and unrealistic. To me, this looks like something just painted onto the magnum. Something little, something similar to Kelly’s rabbit that she paints onto everything. I would absolutely love it if 343i would add the Full Moon skin to every weapon in the game. Take every gun, and make it black, then just put that wolf on it. I’d love it, and wouldn’t even be upset if they later came out with 100 different food themed skins at that point (Okay, that’s a lie, I’m sorry, but you get my point).
Edit: I’m not saying I want 343i to remove skins from the game. That’s not what this is about. I want them to, however, add more serious skins to all weapons, like the Full Moon skin.
Pls 343i gimme the Full Moon skins for every loadout weapon!
I am on the side of why not have the option, rather have it there and not use it than not have the option for those that want it. I do think they need to do the same thing for more serious designs
Dude if you don’t like weapon skins than you don’t like weapon skins, i personally like the skins because they are fun to wear on your gun to give yourself a nice laugh every once and awhile. But just remember its a game, technically they can do whatever they want with it, so try to have fun with it every once and awhile like i used to do with my buddies back in the older Halos.

I totally agree, but I mean, I don’t really think anyone was like, “Man, I’d play this game a hell of a lot more if there was a skin that made the assault rifle look like it had pepperoni pizza on it.” I’m coping with it in the way that it’s like, they’re allowed to use the ridiculous skins in combat training, and only training. since those guns aren’t actually being produced by the UNSC, and it’s just a simulation. So, I don’t really care too much about the silly skins. I do want more serious ones, tho. Full Moon is the only weapon skin that I’ve really ever liked in a FPS, rofl. Props to you 343i. Props to you.

Yo, homie, I never said that I wanted them to remove skins from the game, I’m just saying I want them to make at least some that are a little more seriously toned. Gonna have to edit the post to make that clear, lmao.
Im right there with you. Personally i hate the goofy ones and will never use them (but i will not try to keep others from using them). Id like to see more serious ones that look more realistic to the lore and universe as well.
I think the weapons skins are a good idea. Consdiering 343i decided to introduce them, they MUST do a better job at catering to a wider (more mature/older) audience, enough with the pastel colors and pizza skins already. Most of the weapon skins are straight up silly looking in my opinion and it would be nice to see actual cammo patters and military like finishes.
Totally with you on this, I don’t mind if others want to use goofy skins, that’s cool, but I’d like some more serious ones to use. I’m currently just using Gold Standard on everything except the Magnum, which I use Full Moon for. I think the Blue Team-looking skin in the February update review is pretty nice though.
I completely agree that the game could use more serious skins, all the neon paint and goofiness is fairly annoying. Not sure if I want the same exact skin on every weapon though.
It’s just for the war games simulation and some Spartans like to have fun. I like more serious and less colorful skins like steel and gold standard, but the others are fine to me.
I feel the same way. I’ve only stepped out of default when I had the ability to make my assault rifle overly patriotic… Merica. Although I don’t play seriously with the AR anyways.
I’ve always hated over the top, and outrageous aesthetics when it comes to gaming. Pretty soon they add enough crap to make it look like a circus. I cringe when I see a pizza AR.
So basically you’re adding your voice to the multitude pissed about the Last Slice?
I hear you there mate. I want a wolf skin on my DMR. Call it “Six’s Legacy”
