Secondary armor colors in team based games

Would it be a good idea to let people keep their secondary colors in team games? I think, without a doubt, it would look cool. But it might frustrate people because they have to keep changing their colors from FFA to Team games.

I’d love to see this in at least some game types.

Thoughts??

Yeah that’d really be cool, but I bet you there’d be idiots that accidentally betrayed their teammates because the secondary color confused them.

I’d like to see it back too. :slight_smile:

I do not agree. It confuses a lot, and that’s wrong in a Team-based gametype.

I would like more colorable parts for FFA though.

Back? Was it in H2? Only Halo game that I hardly played. Wasn’t able to get it, so I mostly played the campaign and little Custom Games at a friends house.

This would be a very plausible scenario. Still, I’d like that to be implemented. Having your main as red and secondary as black? -Yoink!-, that would be cool.

I think that they should only have detail in team games.

I agree with your second comment. More customization in general is always a good thing.

Would it really be that confusing? Is our color customization limited to what skins we have rather than actual armor like shoulders? It will definitely be confusing if our entire body has two colors, but if its just parts of our armor then it would be fine.

If this cant be done for Halo4 then maybe for Halo5 343 will give us a good enough system for us to do it.

like the idea op

We had a “third color option” in Halo 3 which was visible in Team based Gametypes,i would like that to return,maybe a little bigger,but for the rest the secoundary color should be the same for everybody.

Ever play a little game called Halo 2?

Most confusing teams ever . . . But it would make it more CoDish, obscuring team recognition.

Seriously, as butt ugly as they are, something 343i has done right with aesthetics is making every piece of the armor, including the under suit BLUE or RED.

Wasn’t it in Halo 3 also? A little tiny stripe on your leg, you got to choose with colour it was and it was that colour in every playlist.

I’d like the armour detail colour from Halo 3 to return. It gave you a splash of individuality in team games.

I think skins stick with you.

You mean that little stripe? I wish that would return, though if we could move it, it would be awesome.

If we could select certain ares or categories of the body to place the Primary color, Secondary Color, Third Color, and maybe even Fourth Color, along with that Halo3 strip, and have the armor skin in their as well, we would have a perfect color system, or at least almost perfect.

> I think skins stick with you.

Yeah, think so too. I mean really, 343 most likely didn’t make team skins. It’s either that, or they disabled skins in team games, which I doubt as well.

> Wasn’t it in Halo 3 also? A little tiny stripe on your leg, you got to choose with colour it was and it was that colour in every playlist.

I believe so.

Yes.

There are. Go to the Bungie forums and look up totallymassive. He betrayed his teammates for being Elites, for wearing different armor, etc., etc… and he said it was because he couldn’t tell the difference.

Sounds like a troll. Maybe there could be a preference to put team markers over the heads of your teamates. Or do we already have this?
