Headless Spartan Mod

Ran across this in SWAT earlier today, and apparently there’s a mod/glitch/hack/whatever that allows a player to remove all of the armor on their Spartan characters, thus also removing the hitbox on their Spartan’s head. The player’s Spartan literally walks around with no visible head, and can only be killed by multiple body shots.

[REDACTED BY MONITOR] an example of a player’s character model that is taking advantage of this completely unfair and mildly infuriating glitch. If you see someone using this, report it immediately.

old news people have knowing for a week its a glitch with the DLC Armour.

GOV has been reported countless times, over and over, topics locked by 343 mods/admins so people definitely know about it. No official word whether it is a mod or hack or glitch or what but the Gov guy has came on here to gloat and no one does anything about it.

I guess he’ll just keep playing SWAT and not getting killed because no one wants to do anything about it/

Who would remove their armor in the middle of combat?

Seems silly to report him, it’s a legitimate strategy to get a head off the competition. :3

how do they do that?

This looks awesome! I want to assassinate him :smiley: https://spartans.svc.halowaypoint.com/players/GOV/h4/spartans/fullbody?target=large

Its funny because 343 don’t ban him.

What’s most important is that you don’t lose your head over this.

Would a second post be a little headstrong?

Alright, I’ll stop making these posts now.

But it’s important to note he’d be a terrible driver, no headlights.

Also, that’s one unique way to win at Headhunter.

From these armorless pictures I can gather that someone needs to throw a few cheeseburgers at the army of Spartan IVs. They’re all absurdly skinny.

Maybe he should run headlong into a fast food joint?

I was just thinking how it’s too bad the oddball is not a skull anymore. It would be awesome to see him running around with a skull in his hands and no head.

It’s not necessarily old news, for the problem just reportedly started popping up less than a week ago. And without a fix yet, one has to assume that 343i has yet to acknowledge the problem - hence why I posted this topic to ensure the problem becomes more widely known.

Also, it has nothing to do with the “DLC armor”… considering there isn’t any DLC armor to begin with. It’s a glitch that’s exploited by modding.

I didn’t know about it till I saw this thread. So shut the hell up.
You moaning at people for posting news is -Yoinking!- annoying.

Tales of Sleepy Harvest… with the Headless Spartan terrorising Covies riding his Mongoose.

Should have happened at Halloween.

I play mostly SWAT, and I never encountered any of them (and SWAT should be the best to play with this glitch…)

Btw, it gives me an idea: if wearing a preorder armor and deleting it makes you have invisible armor, what about putting in the loadout a preorder weapon (the Artic BR) and deleting it?

I would play with invisible gun :smiley:

I guess he’ll never get banned. Hes been playing since the start of the game like that and nothing has been done.

I’m not defending him or anything, so don’t take it that way but, I’ve played with him on custom games and he does occasionally play with a head. He’s actually pretty polite (If you get past the fact that, like you said, he plays with no head) and will help you out.

Although, you guys gotta admit this would be pretty good for machinima’s when the main characters are in their offtime (But with a helmet still :/)
