Halo Reach had that perfect military feel to it, and with AI going to be a main enemy I feel like Halo 6 will rely less on technology, hell we may retun to armor without AI ports.
Agree, armor seems “less militaristic.”
Yes,for me that’s badly missing.
Reach was too much Military-influenced, it was cool but we need new stuff and elements in the franchise. Also, we need to admit that the Battle Rifle has always looked pretty old in the original trilogy and Reach.
Personally: Forerunner Stuff > Covenant Stuff > Flood Stuff > Human/Military Stuff > Yonhet and another Farm Covenant Stuff
The armour in Reach was amazing, definitely the best in the whole series by far. After seeing so many people claim their love for that armour, I don’t see how 343i keeps creating stuff like Seeker armour.
At least they gave us Noble, and are bringing in Mark IV and V…

The BR wasn’t in Reach…
and did you read the OP, with AI rebelling against humanity (we’ve seen this in terminator) humanity may need to use less technology

Mark V will be coming back
and Mark IV was in reach (sorta, it was a prototype called grenadier)
but it they did have Mark V
Yes! I even miss the military like ranks.
~TGW
Yeah I miss that, i wish the would go back to that
Reach nailed it. & The modular armor on figures was genius, near endless customization. I even have my Reach Operator on my desk!

Yup, dat Mark IV armor with EVA helmet to remind me of that Halo legends Kelly
Don’t really see a need to (other than ranks wise). They’re space soldiers, its going to get a little outlandish.
I think its the visors! They always give a human feel to things!
Where’s the delete comment button btw?
I think a nice middleground can be reached.
I would keep the general look of the new armor, each armor retaining its own specific helmet, chest, thruster, shoulder, vampbrace, thigh, shin, and foot shape. Then, I would add Halo: Reach customization in which you can layer on load-bearing ammunition vests, bandoleers, reinforced points like UA attachments, and TACPADs, applicable to each specific armor piece.
That would give each person’s armor a unique feel. You can either have “naked” armor like in Halo 5, or make it appear like your Spartan has been kit-bashing and applying their own useful, specific alterations. That’s what made Reach’s armor special to me; each Spartan got a standard suit, but they made it theirs by altering it to their liking.
And I’d make the undersuit black. Jesus the colored undersuit looks HORRIBLE.
