In Halo 3 (pre vidmaster) recon was only given to Bungie employees and special members of the community. I found that too be a great addition. Giving out a special armor perm was sort of a honor to the players who Bungie thought did something incredible in the game, such as maps, film clips, screenshots and the like. I feel like it really brought more quality content from the community as there was an actual reward for doing something awesome. I remember the days when I would get on Halo cruise thru Bungie favorites and see some pretty awesome screenshots. Now…now I cant even bring myself to open up the file browser. I remember playing Bungie vs. the world all day too try to get matched up with employees to win my own set. I guess what im saying is they should bring back some sort of reward system be it an armor perm or armor effect just too show other players “Hey, I did something cool and this is what I got for it.”
Agreed. Maybe another helmet, or some other armor piece?
Um, I say. NO
I don’t want some new armor that only select people will have. Do you know how much problems having select armor for select people causes? First you got the masses demanding every damn day for that armor, then it’s given out to a few more people, THEN those people who got the armor before get pissed off like it’s rude to give out armor to others, and then there are the -Yoinking!- spamers who spam you messages saying “Pay me and I’ll get you this armor” sending it to EVERY ONE EVEN THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE IT.
All armor needs to be their for EVERYONE.
Im all for something just for 343i and a few others…
But they will give us something with pre order then im fine …

Thats why halo 3 was so fun. It gave this weird mystery around the armor. Dangling it infront of us making us do things for the armor you normally wouldnt do. Getting recon was the most fun ive ever had in Halo. I would love to see a new armor peice for only 343.
