No Black

am I the only one bummed out that black is not a color choice for your Spartan? In the beta, you were able to, but now the closest you can have is a gunmetal grey.

I liked the black. I think in the beta it was just a really really dark gray like metalbut not black. I think it was called steel gray or something

But black would be nice to have for free for alls or spartan color outside of matches with red

In the IGN q&a a few weeks back, didn’t the multiplayer design head say he didn’t like dark things so he had them taken out?

I swear, if we lost dark maps and dark colors thanks to him, I’m gonna be pretty upset.

It would be coo, but I have a feeling it would be a bit overused

I think it would be cool if you could do different paint designs on armor.

In all honesty, gunmetal grey is likely factory standard. I’d love black, since I can have it any color I’d like, as long as it’s black.

Oh well. Go for the next best thing I suppose.

It should be there but I guess we’re stuck with darkish grey

No black was expected. But the lack of green and red/orange was not. We need more green, red, and orange. Blue has like 9 different shades so why give red and orange 1 and green 2?

Yeah, I’m pretty let down by all the color choices as well.

I agree, it seems that 343i favored cool colors, over a more balanced mix of them the lack of red shades and others really disappoints me.

I’m sorry to say that, but the title is a bit misleading and sounds a bit racist to me…
back to topic. I wait until Halo 5 is out, its an fact, that the web-based version is much brighter then ingame, so “darkgrey” could actually be Black…

Yeah, Even Halo 4 had a better shade of black.

Don’t forget purple!

Was thinking how there weren’t that many colors while I was customizing my spartan. We need more greens reds and black shades…

I am always Grey and Red for my armor colors so I do not care much about black.

at the very least add a pure black to the detailing of the armor. i can understand the argument with all black armor being hard to see in some shaded areas of the map but for the most part you’ll be running either red or blue in MP.

what no black that sucks

I really miss that dark, Indigo/Purple color from Halo 4. It looked awesome with white secondary.

In my opinion, I feel like black would be widely overused and abused, giving players an advantage by being able to hide better in certain dark areas of maps. Colors should definitely not affect gameplay.
