No worries, as long as nobody walks away thinking aggression was intended.
I’d take any option, really. Even if it means resorting to a Halo 5 armor core where the floating armor system that already existed in that specific game allows for more freeform body types.
I’m just hoping it happens at all, instead of never.
Augh I hated the floating armor so much lmao. I really prefer the unified suit look we’ve got now but that’s just me.
Anyway, I like you and get you. Sorry for the earlier hostilities, just always ready just in case, these days, on this subject. You didn’t deserve that, as made clear here. Again, my apologies.
It’d be nice if it happens, I agree - I just, really want this game’s health prioritized, because it needs a steady diet of fixes and mode inclusion. Badly. I am in DIRE need of a fulfilling PvE experience I can craft myself based off of leaks we’ve seen, or at the very least, one where I’m not hyper-guy-am-gravely-man-who-while-a-good-character-is-hard-to-walk-in-the-shoes-of-comfortably Master Chief. Hoo…
I need that your-spartan action BADLY.
I never said I was good at anything. I’m trying to talk to you. Talking isn’t a competition or anything. And why are you glad those threads get locked? Because if all the threads about representation get locked, then those people who don’t feel represented are having their concerns silenced. So why would that make you glad? I don’t understand.
Also, maybe you haven’t seen all of them. But these threads aren’t just getting locked because people are “uppity”. I’ve seen threads I’d consider fairly civil about this topic get locked. It seems the topic itself isn’t something we’re allowed to talk about, hence the feeling of being silenced.
Mmm… Mmmmmmm, no, no this isn’t it sis. You’re dividing women here, by whether they’re cis or not and uh, that’s not what we do here. No ma’am.
Actually I’m not dividing along those lines, and I don’t know why you think that. I’ve seen other trans women complain about the representation. All I am saying is that some women don’t feel represented. And those women are being silenced. I don’t care if they’re cis or trans. Some voices are being silenced.
Because I’m going to level with you, the concerns of LGBT+ or PoC folk are One Hundred Times more important to me because those issues effect me directly. This is where you’ll say, “But didn’t you just say you didn’t want a divide?” and I don’t, no. But we must always consider those less fortunate than ourselves - and if you consider yourself morally upright, then you should probably consider non gender conforming or other LGBT+ folks in your concerns before your own, since you’re in a position of social power.
Example: In 2020, I was part of the protests. I was willing to do a lot to help, but as a white woman I ensured to use my position to stand where PoC said I needed to and to boost their voices far above my own.
That is what we who are born in advantageous positions must do. Help those who are not.
So understand that I fight specifically for LGBT+ people. While someone like you is objectively responsible to consider us as well, if you really want to call yourself an ally.
Tbh many times I see body type get mentioned as a topic its usually from rather ““excited”” gamers who want hella cheeks on (female) Spartans so they can oogle at them.

You said you feel represented. I don’t. Other women don’t. One group voicing their concerns doesn’t mean they’re ignoring yours. What issue is there with representing more stereotypical bodies? Doing so doesn’t mean we have to get rid of the representation already there. We can add to it. Be more inclusive. That way you and I can both feel represented. Isn’t that better than only one of us feeling represented?

Them having their voice doesn’t mean you can’t have yours though. Just that yours shouldn’t drown theirs out. And on this topic, you said you feel represented as is. So how is me saying I also want to feel represented drowning out your concerns about this topic?
So understand that I fight specifically for LGBT+ people. While someone like you is objectively responsible to consider us as well, if you really want to call yourself an ally.
Never called myself an ally. And I absolutely do consider LGBT+ voices. I just don’t see how that’s relevant right now. You already feel represented. How am I ignoring your concerns here? I feel very confused.
All Spartan body types should have a great derriere, whether they be male-presenting, female-presenting, or androgyne. It’s factually the most powerful set of muscles in the body, and a honed body tailored from head to toe would have some jaw-dropping glutes.
This includes Chief. That tush should be stunning.
Stay confused then, I need to draw. I’ve already outlined everything for you, and you’re circling the fish tank right now looking for flakes that’ve long hit the floor below.
So help or don’t.
They really robbed our mans of his booty.
Okie dokie. And you keep being glad that voices of other women are being silenced. By the way, I’m also bisexual and trans, and my boyfriend is pansexual. But yeah, it’s totally okay that I’m silenced so the LGBT+ community can have a voice.
Honestly, the only reason I didn’t mention that earlier, is I don’t like to divulge my LGBT+ status, as I’ve been abused and harassed for it in the past. You can bet the dysphoria I feel does add to why I care so much about representation, and I bet you can related based on what you said about voice types. So yeah, let me talk about how the representation can be more inclusive please.
There’s a lot to unpack here, but if what you’re saying is true…
Girl you got a lot to re-assess.
It is true. And don’t tell me what I need to reassess. Just don’t be glad that threads I talk about not being represented in are silenced please. It doesn’t feel good to hear you say that.
Honestly if the armor can clip in animations like a spartan folding their arms over top each other then items clipping the left arm shouldn’t matter. If you can reliably determine a grappling hook mid combat or before killing them then you have amazing eye sight. Honestly even with the huge tablet repulser I don’t notice an enemy having it unless I see them pick it up or use it.
If they truly want it visible for gameplay reasons make the items glow distinctively, or make a holographic image that represents said item projected over the attached limb. For example grappling hook could be a glowing triangle/
or arrow across their arm, for repulser a rectangle, explosive waves or hologram wrapped around the arm. Sensor a orb with sound waves off it or sonar dish. Dropwall a shield, brick wall pattern etc.
Plus clipping happens anyway there are zero reasons to regress body types infact we should have stuff like playable elites
Wouldn’t it be sick that as part of are spartan training we get to train along side elites because we have an active trustee with them
I mean if they’re still worried about balance, make Elite’s worth more points a kill or something.
I’m kind of wondering if they could have been left out because they’re not finished yet.
Jorge’s should is just a little bit too big to simply not notice it…
Doesn’t explained why the kits are part of the battle pass though sadly.
