Apparently the new armor set is a replacement model for the CQB armor, guess that means we wont be getting CQB in the future. What a sad day, they could have at least made it LOOK like CQB. Very disappointing reveal. They also shouldve made the legendary hammer look like the fist of rukt. Really not looking forward to this I mean no one cares or wants a hannibal anything we just want to see some NEW vehicles, some classic armor sets and more game modes (which arent coming in this update either I guess). Oh well this ones a bust but theres always the next update and how can you go wrong with a Reach theme.
This is not a logical assumption. The description on Grims blog is a lore description of the Dynast, do not read too much into it. Think about it this way, according to the lore the Mark IV was replaced by the Mark V, but the Mark IV has been available in one form or another in most of the Halo titles since it was replaced. There is no reason the original CQB armour cannot return.
The only form I’ve seen mk4 in the other games was in the form of Mk5.

There’s a second Legendary Mythic armor displayed in the poster. I’d love to see the look on CQB users’ faces when it’s revealed to be CQB.
If it isn’t, I still actually like the armor and helmet “replacements”.
Link?

As long as it’s painted right it’s close enough.
Black on the upper back of helmet, cheeks, and forehead. 3 variants so I can only hope.
It looks like it got the decimator alpha treatment…
…
Without cqb I feel empty.
“Give me back my face!”
What do you mean it doesn’t look like CQB? It’s definitely different but just look at that morphed T shape in the visor, even the lines on it are a morphed version of the CQB visor’s original pattern. Then there’s the line coming down the forehead and the armor on each side of the jaw. Dam that thing looks like it can take a punch.
To me it looks more like the Fotus helmet but more rounded and without the unicorn’s horn.
When you first see it you dont think “hey theres the CQB” so while there are similarities it definitely isnt right. And lets be honest guys we have like 3 updates left this was the CQBs chance and its pretty clear it wont be in now. The second legendary armor is the one from the trailer Im assuming.
Another disappointment. Instead of “expanding” on original and much loved designs why not just give the fans the actual designs that we like and put more of their creativity in providing completely new and original armour and helmets which actually fit the style of Halo (pre Halo 4).
The thing is barely recognisable as CQB besides the slight resemblance in the visor and the armour just looks like Athlon. The helmet and armour really do not go together at all. What is with the overly bulky and objectively ugly designs in this game?
