Mark VI helmet looks off

As we’ve already seen, the Mark VI armor is unlockable in the Halo 5 beta and subsequently, the actual game. Now they NAILED the look of the armor, especially with the return of the amazing space diaper… but ONE thing is off: the helmet! From what I’ve seen, the helmet uses the same design from Halo 4… the only design of the Mark VI helmet that, in my opinion, was not favorable and looked sort of weird. Perhaps you folks at 343 could change it to the tweaked version from H2A? I thought that was the definitive design out of all the games for the helmet. BTW l love what you guys are doing with the franchise! Keep up the good work!! :smiley:

I kinda see where you’re coming from with the new look, how it favors the Halo4 look, but I think it looks ok, considering the sleeker look 343 is giving the armor

Its still wip, won’t look quite the same in game (especially the glossy look), But it will look something similar. I personally think it looks good .

I think it looks fine.

Here’s one from Halo 4, the Halo 5, and Halo 2 Anniversary lined up. I’m not seeing any real differences other than color.

My biggest gripe is mainly the jaw line, Halo 4’s and 5’s is mostly straight and diagonal which I think looks out of place. H2A addresses this by curving it downwards, similar to the classic design. This fix kind of makes the helmet seem more proportionate, if you get what I’m trying to say :stuck_out_tongue: Try going back and comparing those parts for yourself and tell me if you see any differences! I’d like to know if it’s just me seeing this.

I like all the designs for it regardless of game, the changes are too small too ‘‘seriously’’ notice for me

You’re right that the change is very minor, so it’s hard to notice, but when you do see it and not many others can, it kinda makes you go crazy!

Knowing what the armor is and what it represents is what matters to me so if the armors look slightly different that’s not the main thing to me

It looks fine to me.

H2A’s looks the best IMO. While they are all quite similar, the jaw line and the reflective visor of H2A’s MkVI make it stand out.

To me the shape of H5’s looks somewhat like H4’s Commando helmet.

I knew something was off, but I didn’t see it until you pointed it out. The H2A version is definitely superior.

Just to clarify to all of you… all three of those helmets are the EXACT same thing. As for the Halo 4 vs Halo 2A, they are LITERALLY the same thing. H2A was built in the Halo 4 engine, so the actual rendering of the armor and its contours is the same.

The “curve” of the jawline you’re seeing is the viewing angle of that third picture

Yeah they look very similar aside from the obvious color differences and light maps.

Hey guys, any of you missing the mark VI helmet designed by bungie ?

This one: http://images.wikia.com/marveldatabase/images/f/fc/Halo_3-_Master_Chief.jpg

I recently noticed that the helmet created by 343 is slightly different from the original created by Bungie . The 343’s helmet has a different shape and it can be seen first in the form of the visor.

H2a’s helmet is better than the H4’s helmet but this isn’t enough in my opinion.

You can notice the different, as i said before, in the visor! The 343’s visor seems to have the shape of a lemon. The Bungie’s visor seems to have the shape of a car or something close to it.

Are you guys agree with me? REMEMBER: it’s my opinion

I’d like to see the return of Bungie’s style for the Mark VI helmet given that 343 is made up of some Bungie employees

It’s fine.

Yeah not like they arent gonna include 750,345 different versions of helmets in H5.
