Last week when Spartan Companies were announced, I got on the Waypoint webpage and saw that I had all of my MCC armors/helmets unlocked. However, yesterday when I opened up Halo 5 for the first time I saw they were all locked. On the webpage it also says that I haven’t unlocked them, despite watching all of Nightfall and having the required achievements unlocked. Anyone else run into this issue or know a fix?
Same deal here. I watched all those videos too. Forgot about that.
Not that I was really planning on using all of them, but it would have been nice to be able to use the scarred ones or maybe the Nightfall armor
I thought I had my Mark VI Scarred and Mark VI unlocked, but not according to Halo 5 or to halowaypoint that is not the case. Very annoying. Especially when my nightfall armor is unlocked.
I want to say I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing this, but at the same time its really annoying for everyone so not too glad… I have the achievements unlocked and everything for the non-nightfall things, so it should be fairly obvious that I have unlocked them. Nightfall would be the only one where I could see some sort of problem because there isn’t a really clear way to distinguish that you’ve watched them (or at least, not as easily or clear as simply looking at an achievement)
It’s odd for me because I have my Nightfall stuff unlocked in-game, but here on the site it is grayed out.
That is interesting. You’re a step ahead of the rest of us lol
I don’t know for sure, but I’ve noticed most of these unlock issues are coming from players who were in the beta. I had the beta, but never touched it. Since some of these things could be used in the beta (but your data resets after beta-with those items to return at launch), I could be led to assume that the profile “reset” is causing the issue with these items unlocking.
That makes sense actually. I did play in the beta maybe 3-4 games so I would have some beta data that would need to be reset.
My nightfall gear actually unlocked just fine. It’s my items that should have unlocked when completing items on MCC that haven’t unlocked at all.
Never mind, even though my nightfall gear had been available, it no longer is.
Sorry to join the thread ignorantly, but am I to understand you unlock armors in Halo 5 for completing challenges in the MCC?

I wonder if we’ll get an update on this issue since its affecting a good number of people
sConfidential,
Supposedly when you had completed certain achievements and done other activities in Halo MCC, Halo Channel, and a few other activities you would get an unlock of armor and helmets. What has happened so far is that the promised unlocks have not happened yet.

Gotcha. What caught my attention was the reference to watching Nightfall. I saw emblems in the MCC that were locked and needed to watch nightfall in order to be unlocked. Which made me think maybe people were confusing which games the unlockables came in. But this is my first time hearing about it unlock content in Halo 5.
Can anyone direct me to where it says more about these halo 5 unlocks?

Here’s an IGN article about it
Thanks!
I meet the requirements for Mark VI, Mark VI Scarred, Nightfall, and Helioskrill. I had access to all four in the beta, but Helioskrill is nowhere to be found now. The former three, however, are accessible in both the online customization interface and the in-game one.
A quick forum search shows numerous people are having problems with Helioskrill specifically (including people who, like me, verifiably have the Legend achievement and so aren’t mistaken about their entitlement). It’s a shame that none of these missing-armor threads are getting an official response.
This post has gotten a few responses and there was another made a bit ago that got some replies as well. I’m surprised there hasn’t been an official response…

Same
On the matter of this, does anyone know if you get the MCC achievements later are the armors supposed to unlock? Or was it only if you got them before the game’s release? The Mark VI and Nightfall armors unlocked for me since I’d done them previously, but when I went back to MCC and got the Cairo Station achievement the Mark VI Scarred didn’t unlock.
