Hear ye hear ye Halo fans, me thinks said armory of the kingdom of Halo 4 needs some “pimpin”, as a mere pauper amongst the empire of Halo 4 whom cherishes each kingdom(community), as thine pauper of thine alleged kingdom, we the people should have a say to the empires armory. Ok that was just to draw your attention but in all seriousness, this is my hope for the armory of Halo 4. Brace yourselves.

___________________

Notes:
-Please make chest/shoulders like Halo 3 where they actually change the shape of the armor rather than throwing stuff on top because H3 looks better
-Please make wrists/utilities go on the left AND right sides so we can have even more variety
-Please make every piece of armors color changeable so you can have something such as a rainbow
-If you're going to include old voices as firefight voices at all please include Gravemind and Echo 419
-Make Elites fully customizable, I feel like Reach is a little racist towards Elites I mean come on, 8 armor combos. 
-I believe your helmet should be the defining feature of your Spartan so make a fourth attachment of every helmet like haunted ex. EVA fishbowl helmet but make each of them incredibly hard to get such as: Max Rank, Vidmasters, very well hidden easter egg, get all achievements(make em harder this time please), get a huge number of challenges etc.
-Preferably make the visors a more metallic color and not dull like black
-If you have good ideas or exceptional photo shopping skills feel free to post and Ill try to add, don't be offended if yours is not added, I may not have read it yet ;)
-One last thing, Morgan Freeman will be the only joke so don't give me obnoxious ones such as Chuck Norris (fully expecting that one kid to say it)

Thanks for reading and lets try to have this noticed by 343, you never know they might take ideas from it.

That… is a lot of armor. But just one thing, is that SPI was designed for Spartan-IIIs. I don’t think it would be compatible with a Spartan-II’s MJOLNIR VI. Those three fan-made helmets on the bottom are awesome, though.

4

Nice thread. Good suggestions and I’m sure 343 will come up with lots of awesome stuff too! Who knows, we might even end up playing as someone else besides the Spartans and Elites in MP, considering we know so little about Halo 4, so the possibilities may expand exponentially.

The idea for the Earthquake armour effect is cool, but I’m not sure if it can be done. By a hole in the floor I think you mean something similar to the mark (I think it’s called a bitmap) that a bullet temporarily leaves on a surface. If you had 8 people running around and shooting in a map, that might cause some problems for the system that puts the bitmaps in place. Especially if they were in the same place. But we definitely need more armour effects!

5

Yes, this thread is full of win. I love your ideas. Id LOVE for there to be so much armor in H4. Reach had a lot but not toomuch so id love for their to be so much more.

6

sounds cool, but some of those armor effect are rediculous. they cant alter the playing field in any way, and i can already see tons of people running around on fire spewing lava.

7

I agree the chest aurmor need to change the shape of your spartan and I like the idea where you have to get a certan amount of kills to show that wepon on your spartan.

8

I agree totally on tons of armor but I’ve never like Armor Effects. Some may like it but I find them weird. Was EVA/C, (Emile’s Helmet) on the list? I love running around in multiplayer with EVA/C on with Red Flames while on a mongoose screaming, “I’m the Ghost Rider!” Flames are really the only Armor Effects I like.

9

A machete should be available too, like on the cover of Halo: The Cole Protocol. Other than that, every Halo related amour ever created/mentioned, with new ones.

10

The armor effects changing what happens when you die and/or change your spartan’s color are too hard and too distracting. And no pink visor, no need to give 10 year olds another thing to pretend to be a girl with. And maybe a like bluish silver visor color like the ODSTs have.

11

You should also be able to choose what knives you have and where they’re placed assuming assassinations return.

Example:

Knives: Combat knife small, Combat knife large, angled knife (Like the one Emile has), Sickle, Machete, Kunai, turkish knife

Placements: Right upper chest, Left upper chest, right lower chest, left lower chest, right shoulder, left shoulder, right ankle, left ankle, back.

You know, stuff like that.

12

And you should be able to choose how big your emblem is and where it’s placed, and you can place it multiple times on your body for up to three times.

13

I’d like to see the ability to choose your Spartan’s physique (in multiplayer, at least); rather than the body-builder type in Reach, I’d like to be able to go back to the taller, slender version of the Chief from Halo 2 and 3.

14

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, cracked visors, similar to how noble 6’s helmet looked in the last cutscene in Reach.
