New armor and weapon skins anounced

So I just want to know why microtransactions couldn’t be done instead.

Well then. Some nice skins! No light rifle though.

Looks like I’ll be hanging around the giveaway topic when October rolls around. That’s a ways off though I gotta say.
As an LE owner it’s kind of frustrating to feel like I had everything, but now I just got something else thrown at me I’ll never buy. If they were on the marketplace definitely, but I’m not buying some toy to get those codes…
Reach was kinda nice because if you got the legendary edition, and pre-ordered it from GameStop, you had EVERYTHING.
Oh well. I’ll find some way to get them.

They aren’t hidden away in the game files.

I am excited for this, but I really think releasing a Spartan Armor Pack on the Marketplace with all stuff for some 1600 MSP would be better.

whyyyy dont want to buy toyss why not just put it on marcket place lame kinda plz don’t hurt me x)

Can you only get these from buying the toys?

More incentive to buy the toys really. They would make more money from Microtransactions but I guess they have some deal going MacFarlane.

> Can you only get these from buying the toys?

As of now, yes.

> Can you only get these from buying the toys?

seems like it damn

This^^

They will be added in to the game when the time comes with a update, just as Dice do with most of their DLC for BF 3.

Microsoft just wants some more cash, and a reason to keep the population up into next October. Why no Micro Transaction though, I don’t want to buy a toy I’m an adult. It’s clear though Microsoft wants more cash… Just goes with the new DRM on the nextbox.

I was going to get the Didact anyway, because he’s my favorite Halo character, but it’s unfair on people who want the skins but not the toys, they should put all the skins out in a bundle on the market place

Yeah, it seems a lot of us want that to happen, but sadly, I don’t see it happening anytime soon.

This is great. Glad Scout armor is apart of it especially!

Well, maybe the Waypoint community should make its voice heard, like we did with the weapon update. You never know until you try. :wink:

I am interested though. Wish the Chief came with a Mark VI skin but oh well. Both the Scout and DMR skins have my attention.

> This is great. Glad Scout armor is apart of it especially!

Yeah Scout’s my favorite :smiley: maybe the Didact venator may overtake that role, not likely though

If the Chief came with a Mark VI skin then that would defeat the point of beating Halo 4 on legendary

Well it’s not like it would come with the Legendary visor… But Yeah I would have loved a new Mark VI skin, that could be cool!

New scout is why I’m excited though, toxic looks great!

Exactly. No visor plus…who cares? It’s just armor.

Mark VI skin that follows the Halo 2/Halo 3/Reach color pattern. I’d be in heaven.

> OMG, i going to buy every single one just for the skins.

> For the record, I’m pretty glad the Storm Rifle has a skin. Shame its not Red, like the Plasma Rifle was.

> Agreed. I may buy it regardless. And possibly Didact for the Suppressor, although that Venator variant would look nice with my Deadeye :wink:

You guys are crazy spending well over $80 just for weapon/armor skins.
