I’m definitely not paying for things that I got for free in a 10+ year old game. Technically we’re still missing the ODST helmet from Reach, they have the model from H3 instead for some reason, which sucks for me because the Reach ODST helmet is my favorite iteration of it.
I’d like to see something like a season 1 addendum onto season 2. Have a separate track for free that has the remaining missing armor pieces from Reach, but I know getting them free is a long shot
Those shoulders are my favorite so far for the MkVII, definitely not worth 20 or 12 dollars though.
Sure, but “Heroes of Reach” encompasses the “heroes” of Reach, not just Reach.
What “hero” wore Hazop?
And I say this fully recognizing MKVII content, and helmets like Recon and similar pieces present in the BP. 65 unlocks are Noble Team and “hero” of Reach (specifically ODST gear, not Superintendent) related.
I agree with the broad sentiment that it’s a bit ridiculous that 343i basically sold the S1 BP on the idea that you’d be able to recreate your Reach Spartan with it, but then withheld a solid percentage of the Reach armory to sell piecemeal in the shop.
A mini BP is an interesting idea and could be a nice solution for this. I hope 343i makes these sets available somehow and for a reasonable overall price. There’s no doubt that selling them for 1200 let alone 2000 cR in the shop is an optically gnarly thing to do on their part.
I meant as in marine, soldier, police- These heroes or nah? I’m just arguing semantics here but. I’d consider that class of people ‘heroes’, specially in a fiction where a planet gets invaded
That is infact, what I assumed initially, but now I guess they meant Reach as in the game and not the planet. Ooooor some spartans are heroes while the others aren’t. Either way, tomato potato.
Oh don’t worry I’m arguing semantics too. And besides like I said there’s stuff that made it in that has absolutely nothing to do with anything Reach related.
I’d hardly consider the Spartans in Lone Wolf (level) to be heroes. About all they did was drop weapons so I could go up against one extra wave for all I know.
that would be wonderful! a shame 343 doesn’t care and will add the rest in the shop for 10 bucks. because themed things being tied together just makes no sense apparently
One could argue Noble 6 if you chose to wear hazop as your armor… But even if you don’t wanna count that, how does that logic apply to the literal armor of the main spartans the season was focused on? Emile, Carter and Jorge, all have shoulders that were slated to be sold in the shop for $20. In fact BOTH of Emile’s shoulders were made to be shop items, and one of them actually appeared in the shop.
Ah yes it makes so much more sense for them to say to those free players “hey spend money and buy this armor that you still can’t even use because you didn’t also buy the pass!”
If anything, them giving free armor for the core now, will give incentive to people to go back and buy that core after the fact, because they’ll go “Oh cool this old core just got some new content making it more worth it!”.
By the logic that any armor the player equipped would be what Noble 6 wore sure, but an actual interesting little tidbit about Noble 6 is that their actual canonical armor was the MKV(b). Some sources say that it includes the UA attachment and others suggest it includes the shoulder plates (both based on promo images), and yet other promo images share lore of N6 requisitioning a Recon helmet.
Slated sure, and the models exist as such but only Emile’s “Base Security” and the attachment have actually been sold so far, so let’s use what we know as opposed to what’s been speculated.
Again speculation based on models in the game’s files, the only validation that can be gleaned is that “Base Security” and the attachment have been sold, whereas the actual Security (with or without knife) have not been sold yet with no official confirmation that they are in game.
I will concede that this set is one that could’ve been included in the battlepass, but it’s a single example against 65, and I’m still unsure what this has to do with Hazop?
So you’re saying it makes sense to have them spend money on something they can’t use? Because that’s what you just said. If you actually think that makes more sense, you’re hopeless. If you buy hazop for instance, from the shop, making you someone who HAS spent money, you still can’t even use that armor, unless you then spend MORE money to buy the battle pass and get the core. Meaning in order to use hazop, you need to spend a minimum of $20-ish bucks to wear 1 set of armor. That’s beyond dumb.
What do you mean no official confirmation that they are in the game? We’ve seen them in the game, in numerous forms via bots. We do in fact no they are in the game in a functional capacity, due to that, and as for the appearance of those items in the shop, that information was pulled directly from the game files, so again, we KNOW they intended to sell those other armor items in the store. If they didn’t they wouldn’t have been in the store files.
But again, if you really wanna be that obstinate about it, you still have no valid response or excuse to base security being sold in the store, which invalidated your thought process in your previous comment, because even those heroes of reach didn’t have their armor in the pass, and it was being sold for extra via the store.
They’re the ones choosing to spend money on something that they didn’t look into.
It literally tells you what core it goes on, so if they bought something they can’t use, that’s on them.
What do you even mean? There’s nothing TO look in to? It doesn’t state ANYWHERE, in no uncertain terms, that if you buy that item/bundle from the shop you cannot use it. Hell I’ve run in to COUNTLESS people who didn’t even know that was how it worked, until I let them know.
Those shoulders are my favorite so far for the MkVII, definitely not worth 20 or 12 dollars though.
