Halo Xbox One's Armor - Your Addition

For the next Halo game, what new or returning features would you like to see be added to the armory? For example, would you like Armor effects to return or would you like to add something new like helmet pieces or something along those lines.

For me, I would actually like to see weapons be a personalization option for the armory. So instead of holding an AR or Magnum like we see in Halo 4, we can choose which weapon our Spartan is holding in the lobby. You could unlock these weapons for your spartan to hold by mastering the weapon in matchmaking.

So, what would you like to see in the next Halo’s armory?

The ability to apply skins to armor like how you could in Halo Reach with the helmet attachments. And also being able to put my skins on weapons and at the same time being able to adjust their colors.

I would really like my Security Armor back when I think about it, I miss being able to look like a Praying-mantis

Agreed. I miss the Security armor.

I would like to see:

-Attachments/gear for helmets, chest, back, legs, forearms, shoulders

-A return of the knife and maybe different kind of knifes and that you
could put it on different parts of your body (chest, shoulders, lower
leg)

-Selectable armor skins (different kind of camos: forest, desert, frost,
digital, minimalistic, etc.) that you can lay over your armor with your
secondary color

-Darker colors

-An option to give your armor an ‘used-look’

-Armors and especially helmets that are designed with functionality in
mind (I really do not like to see helmets like Wetwork again)

If this returns, I would definitely like to see the Katana come back from Halo 3. Other blade weapons would be nice as well.

Katana assassinations? Although i could see this becoming extremely over used. maybe as a special unlock for…completing a very difficult commendation (Perfection?)

Maybe knife placement would effect your assassination animations. If your knife is on your shoulder than you would pull the knife from your shoulder, etc…

i second his top 3 suggestions, but veto your katana, this is not an anime, katana have no place in respectable Sci-Fi.

That could work! I would definitely work for that reward.

What I would like to see in Halo Xbox One’s armoury:

  • Attachments for all armour pieces
  • All the Halo 4 armour sections (helmet, chest, l. shoulder, etc)
  • The return of utilities, knees and wrist customisation
  • Multiple armour skins per armour set
  • Darker colours
  • More visor colours
  • Not as new looking armor

Mauler!!!

I disagree with the last, I like the armor looking new. The Spartan-IVs are pretty much bound to get state of the art armor, and their condition should reflect that.

cough…Halo Legends…cough.

All jokes aside, how did you get anime from a katana? It was a classic armor used in Halo 3. I don’t see any problem with it returning.

> Mauler!!!

My bad, my title wasn’t written well. By armory, I meant armor pieces and other features to customize your Spartan.

Unless you mean your spartan can hold a Mauler while in the lobby, then I completely agree with you. :smiley:

Very few western Sci-fi include katana, and classic does not equate to good (it was just as dumb back then).

I just need Prefect and Halo 4 Scout

More Halo looking armours. Half of H4’s new armours left me wondering wtf they were thinking. Don’t get me wrong, many are great too. Scout and Mark V have never looked better (IMO), and Wetwork + Venator look amazing.

You contradicted yourself, but IMO halo 4 armor isn’t that bad, the only unforgivably “non-halo” armors are venator, wetwork, pioneer, and fotus

Armor Customization:

  • Attachments brought back from Reach
  • Armor Skins brought back from Halo 4
  • Visible Knifes brought back from Reach, with different choices of knives
  • All the armor choices from Halo 4, with Utilities and Wrist customization brought back from Reach
  • Armor look choices between Clean or Gritty

New Stance:
Bring back Believe, but the weapon you hold is actually your “Favorite Weapon” in the Service Record, or you get to choose the weapon you hold but only when you Master its Commmendation.

Armor Detail Color brought back from Halo 3, so there’s that individual color in team games.

> Maybe knife placement would effect your assassination animations. If your knife is on your shoulder than you would pull the knife from your shoulder, etc…

I had this in mind as well. Would definitely look cool and way better than pulling your knife out of nowhere like some kind of magician.

To the idea with the katana as a knife. Well, I was never a fan of that thing but when a large amount of people like it, why not, but it should be hard to achieve, so not everybody walks around with it.
Personally, I would rather have Emile’s knife or some kind of combat knife put on my lower leg :wink:

There are a few things I’d like to see done, here’s a short list:

1 - Emphasis on returning armours from previous games. And for the love of god if you’re going to call an armour set Commando, Rogue, or Hazop, or something please actually make it reminiscent of the same armour set from the previous game. And please don’t cut out armour options that are obviously modelled into the game. In Halo 3 there were several UNSC armours worn by Marines that we should have gotten access to, such as the Pilot helmet. In Halo 4, there is Master Chief’s armour. Just let us use this stuff.

2 - Fix secondary colours. By which I mean that in Halo 2, 3, and Reach, secondary colours were put in places that made SENSE. Where you could clearly see that was another part of the armour. They weren’t just lazily painted overtop of it. If you’re going to have secondary colours, design them so that they actually look proper. Also, it would be nice if Armour Detail colour came back so we can customize a colour that actually shows in team games.

3 - Add Elites to the Armoury. As well, Elites should have the following customization options: Helmet, Chest, Left Shoulder, Right Shoulder, Wrists, Legs, Lights (equivalent to Visor, changes the colours of light up sections of armour such as shield modulators on the wrist etc.).

4 - I agree with the idea that we should get to customize the weapons in our stances. Have some stances designed for certain weapon types. For instance, Sidearm stances, Rifle stances, Launcher stances, and Turret stances.
