Anyone else finding that it’s really getting cluttered once you’ve unlocked so many armor sets and helms? Pretty hard to compare armor sets when all the various skin variants are scattered all over the place.
In particular, I think you should be able to sort armor by base variant, and then choose which skin/pattern of it you want.
I also might be starting to ask for too much with this one, but I also wish we could choose to turn off the skin/pattern entirely so that the armor is only a flat primary color. I want this particularly because some armor sets look great but are hindered by a horribly unfitting skin/pattern. Or, the armor looks great when on your custom Spartan, but terrible in team games because the secondary colors are not what you intended.
I think the Reach armour system is best by far, it had a lot of interesting variants, and modifications to those variants, while keeping it all very tidy and compact.
I’m sure the team that worked on Halo 5 armour for multiplayer worked very hard on them, but I do agree there is way to many, it’s all very cluttered and they are not very unique. Armour has always been very recognisable in Halo, Now there is just so many its impossible to have them be memorable.
At the very least I’d like to see a “Sort by Favorite” option, you mark your personal favorite pieces of armor and they’re always at the top of the list.
We need sorting options at least. ‘Sort by Rarity’ and ‘Sort Alphabetically’ should help immensely by themselves.
However, the best would be a ‘Sort by Base Variant’ how Reach did things where you click the variant and it shows you all the armor you’ve unlocked under it.
Also, ability to preview locked armor sets would be amazing, just so you can sort of see what you want to go for.

The UI for the Reach customization system was also much more organized and straightforward. Another poster mentioned the ability to mark favorites, that seems like the system that would be easiest to implement in my opinion. Even if you organize the armor by the base sets and have variants in a sub menu, there are just a ton of armor sets. I also hope in Halo 6 they make Armor skins a separate unlock that can be applied to whatever helmet and armor you have equipped (similar to the visor and helmet system now).
