Just about every game has gotten new customization options besides Reach. Halo 3 got new Elite and Spartan armors. H2A had new Spartan Armor attachments. Reach only got a few new items, the cut helmets from map DLCs and some Helmets that Halo 3 got.
Ideas for new armors - Spartans, SPI and Mark IV. Mark IV has only been seen in one main line Halo game that being Halo 5. SPI has been put into Halo 3 and soon to be in Infinite but why not Reach? Headhunters, aka SIII’s, wore that armor. You think we’d have in Reach since the only Spartans you see in the game are SIII’s besides Jorge. Now the only problem would be their forearms and legs. Reach doesn’t have full customization for those. I do believe 343 can do it though. Halo 3 didn’t have those options before now it does within MCC. It’d be nice to see more SII and SIII armors put into Reach.
Ideas for new armors - Elites, Honor Guard, the Armor added to Halo 3, Maybe Arbiter and Armor seen on the cover art of books. The Elites have been neglected for to long. Give us new Elite armor. Honor Guard would be easy seeing how in Halo 2 it’s just the Combat Harness, aka Minor, with fancy attachments to their armor. Some of the armor from Halo 3 looks like it could fit the Reach model. A modder has already put the armor into a FF mod and they look pretty good. The Arbiters armor would be an AMAZING thing to have in the game. HCE/2/3 we have Chiefs armor in MP so who says we can’t have the Arbiters?
Elite armors from some cover art. There has been some interesting looking armors for Elites on a few Halo books. It’d be nice to see more Elite Armor from the Halo universe in Reach. Both the Spartans and Elites in Reach could benefit from some new armor sets or attachments. Elites could really benefit with the option for full armor customization. Note: There was talk about it being added in at some point but the MCC update post on Waypoint was deleted.
What other armors should be added into Reach from the Human Covenant War?
