i am sure that many of you including myself are all in agreement, that 343i, bungie, or somebody anybody would make new armor permutations. The ability to customize your armor is one of the greatest aspects of halo reach from sweet chest pieces to manly 117 firefight voices. I think we as a comuunity should come together and DEMAND that new armor is made, whether it be new helmets for microsoft points or a entire armor set (shoulders, helmet, wrist, chest, utility, legs, and armor abilty) for something similar to a vidmaster challenge. If anyone agrees comment my post and lets make something happen
I heard you can’t add new armour but don’t take my word for it.
well if they can add new maps what would be the difference in adding new armor?
Because the amor would need to be coded into every other map where new maps dont effect the rest of the game.
The has to be able to work with everything when the new maps only have work with existing armour and weapons etc.
even so, it is still possible to do the required coding for the new armor to be added to the game and im sure there is a high demand for new armor so 343i should look at it as a good business opportunity
Ya, if you force everyone (including the ones who dont want it) to download a 10 gig file every time you add a piece of armor.

I have to agree with goobot here and say it takes a lot of data to add armor. Even cutscenes need to updated for the armor. Even though there is helmet attachments on helmets that don’t have that attachment, as seen in the hologram glitch and the lone wolf level. (My favourite glitch helmet is a military police with the operators goggles)
i dont think it would be 10 gigs because the armor that we have now isnt taking up 10 gigs i believe that it is possible to make the nessasary changes to the game fairly easily look at game like dragon age that are just as complex as reach but you can but armor for your character for 80 msp it it only takes up like 12 mb
Nope cause it needs a patch so it works with the rest of the game, which would be around 10 gigs, current armor doesnt cause the game was coded for it already.
Not trying to rain on your parade but Reach has three times as many customization options than H3. There is literally one thousand plus different ways to trick out your Noble. I am quite content with what I have access too.

I’d rather people worked on new maps, instead of making new armour permutations. And to all the people saying I’d take up 10 gigs, it wouldn’t. I won’t flip the techno switch, though. You people can’t handle it.
How bout a more simple solution. Not “NEW” armor per say but mixing and matching already known armor and attachments! Every helmet can use any of the other attachments. some of the chest pieces can mix and match as well as shoulder pads! My evidence lies within some of the known glitches and just the marines themselves. The hologram glitch shows off crazy miss matches as does the lone wolf glitch (not sure if this is named yet but i like to use it. basically play lone wolf co-op [even with a guest if u want] and make sure your character is not the last person to die, now when the cutscene comes up itll be a spartan in default armor, heres the thing when it shows the helmet it will be random as well as random attachments, then when it switches to the future it will be another random helmet with random attachments!) I have seen some rather nice mixes with the lone wolf glitch! Now the marines themselves wear some sort of armor that is made from other pieces just mixed and matched! It woudlnt be new armor but allow for more individual customization!
I agree with nerf… its not new armor we need, its a wider view of the armor we already have.

Its more about I dont want to look the same as everyone else!! Like I actually like the JFO helmet but i hate its attachments! just an example
Hopefully new Armor effects will be implemented into the game. I wanna see various effects due to the personal taste of each individual player. Not just the few that we have so far.
Ya DEATH TO CONFORMITY!!! Dont give me your pathetic numbers explanation - do i look like a mathamagician to you? just makes the new armors!
What I would like to see is something like so:
Helmet
>BASE (only base helmets)
>>COLOR (I would like to see every piece available to color differently)
>ATTACHMENTS (all attachments available)
>>COLOR
>VISOR COLOR
Chest
>COLOR
Right Arm
>BASE (robotic prosthetic would be applied here)
>>COLOR
>ATTACHMENT (the bracer options)
>>COLOR
Left Arm
>BASE (it would be nice to see the option to be left-armed prosthetic)
>>COLOR
>ATTACHMENT
>>COLOR
Right Leg
>ATTACHMENT (the thigh-options)
>KNEE GUARD
>>COLOR
Left Leg
>ATTACHMENT
>KNEE GUARD
