Halo Infinite Custom Spartan In Campaign

A lot of people including myself would like to be able to use our custom Spartan in Halo Infinites Campaign. I am aware it is Master Chiefs Story, but being able to play as our custom Spartan in Halo infinites campaign{s} would be outstanding. I say this because, I love my custom Spartan I mean it’s supposed to be me, and it just sucks we can only use our Spartan in Multi-player. This is why I recommend that 343 should put a Skull into Halo Infinite that allows us as players to be able to use our custom Spartan in campaign. This Skull would basically take our Spartan that we are using at the moment and it would replace Master Chief.

I mean we either grinded out the battle pass or bought stuff from the store { No matter what it costs money } and Multi-player can get sweaty and frustrating, I paid to get the battle pass { $12 Canadian “normal” or $28 Canadian “+25 tiers” around? if memory serves me right } + grinded it out, and for the campaign { $91 Canadian } I would like to be able to use my custom Spartan in the campaign. This is unfortunate for me and others. Some might just wanna say screw it and use their spartan instead of Master Chief because they’ve replayed the campaign so many times or because they like there custom spartan and really want to use in the Campaign, or for the people like me who always preferred the campaign instead of the Multi-player. I know some of you might not care, some of you might say “that’s not lore accurate”, but I just want to be able to use my custom spartan that I spent Money and Time on in Halo Infinites amazing campaign.

Please 343 could you add this feature, I mean it can’t be that hard the cutscenes are rendered in engine and you already have the models you would just have to port them to the campaign, Please. I love Halo, it’s one of the only games I play; the story, the gameplay, the customization I love it. I’ve been playing Halo for a large portion of my life and seeing this feature would make others and myself very happy.

As a fellow primarily PvE player I absolutely loved the design decision in Reach to unify the single-player and multiplayer armour usage. It was bloody genius, and why we haven’t been able to do it since is completely baffling to me. I get that people want Master Chief, but to be honest, once the campaign has been beaten once with the default armour, why not let us use the custom stuff?

I know a lot of people will say it’s a waste of resources as they only care about PvP, but it’s things like this that go a long way to making PvE players more appreciated.

That said, I could perhaps live without it if they introduced new DLC campaigns that used a new customisable Spartan like Noble-6.

I’d almost like to see Infinite pass the torch to a new Spartan, with the Chief becoming a supporting role. I know comparisons will immediately be made to Locke in Halo 5 with that idea, but with Chief being treated as an ally rather than adversary, and using custom armour, I think it could be done really well.

Imagine that moment when you’re playing as Chief to rescue a fellow Spartan, to seeing them being revealed wearing your custom armour and then cutscene ending with the camera panning into the new Spartan’s viewpoint and Chief supporting further missions in various ways.

Maybe if they added your Spartan in a campaign story dlc as the playable character, that could work. But Chief needs to be in his armour.

Maybe co-op works like that? One player gets to be Chief and the rest are generic Spartans which just happen to be your custom Spartan.

It’ll be the first time people don’t want to be player 1 XD

This guy gets it. As I was playing the solo offering, couldn’t help but remember the glory days of Reach and playing as “my” Noble 6. Some DLC focusing on our own Spartan’s story would be a must play for me.

I would love to see that and with the secret ending that was found in the files maybe that’s it

Yes, I agree but if by chance that story dlc doesn’t happen why not have a custom spartan as Chief { It would obviously not be cannon more for fun }

Yeah that be cool but if you prefer playing alone or non of your friends are available and you want to use your spartan in campaign, maybe it should be an option. A bunch of chiefs or your custom Spartans

It’d be awesome if they made it a skull that enabled Multiplayer customizations in Campaign. That’d be a great and seemingly simple answer for custom Spartans and weapon/vehicle customization in single player campaign.

My MP Spartan is still the basic free one, so that would be boring for me.

But, 343i honestly needed to find a way to connect MP with Campaign, similar to how Destiny does it. The F2P and separation of the games were just a bad idea I think.

We should at least be able to customize our gear like in MP. The gear you unlock in MP should be available in Campaign.

Reviving this post, cause yea! I’d love my custom spartan in campaign!

Reach really did spoil halo of many of us. Too bad 343 can’t take a hint that sometimes less is more and some of the best stuff from reach should be duplicated (to a degree).

The fact we unlock multiplayer gear in campaign for PvP is just weird. Should’ve gone both ways!!

Right?

It’s crazy. It’s a small feature, not canon breaking (not crazy to think chief wears a bit of other armor,) but it would totally connect the campaign to mp world for me and make me more motivated to earn stuff in MP. Seeing it when my spartan does lame and cheesy stances at the beginning and end of the game is one thing, but seeing it on an emoting character in the campaign would be so much more interesting.

This is why I’ve been a proponent of future Halo titles, behind side stories about different spartans that we can customize like Halo Reach. I feel like Chief has been fighting for so long, let him rest, retire, or whatever.

Especially now with co-op… Super disappointing multiplayer armour/weapon/vehicle skins don’t carry over. Guessing everything we have collected when Tatanka is released won’t work for that either.

Might I make a suggestion that could potentially work, instead of having our armor and coatings from multiplayer, why not just have our weapon and vehicle coatings from multiplayer instead it’s a visual compromise one that 343 already has experience with as we’ve seen in recent updates with Halo The Master Chief Collection.

Exactly. Like, how does chief rock different mjolnir armor thru the games? He equips mark V & VI (and whatever halo 4/5’s was meant to be), but he changes it offscreen… what’s so wrong in thinking that his OG armor was dirty one day & he had to temporarily use some different variants of armor while “replaying the campaign.”

Also like to add…. I could understand it being a big deal to not do it if the cutscenes were pre rendered, but it’s all done in engine, so as long as they were to add a feature to use our equipped multiplayer armor, it’d work out fine.

While it’s not the best outcome, it’s still “good enough” if it was to actually become a reality. I don’t think we’ll ever see campaign customization if I’m being 100% honest (cause 343 are miles behind with infinite & I bet they’ll just say it’s too hard to implement), but if this is the least we can get, sure, I’d take custom weapon/vehicle skins.
