Do you think Weapon skins would be acceptable in MM? Only being obtained through actions in campaign/rank up in MM.
Like: Default, Battle damaged, Dirty, etc.
Same idea as Gears 3.
Example I made Assault rifle.
I’m never against awesome aesthetics.
Awesome example, BTW.
thank you. That would be the “Veteran” Skin. Obtained by playing HCEA, Reach, Halo wars, halo 2, halo 3/odst, and reach.
I’ve never understood the appeal of weapon skins. Weapons in video games are such comparatively small objects, and while you may get an initial flicker of amusement when first seeing them in a different colour, what is the attraction thereafter? I remember watching my brother play Gears of War 3 with green weapons, and, frankly, they looked terrible.
Edit: Before this gets out of hand, I should state that I am definitely not against weapon skins; I just don’t really understand them, and if they were implemented, I would probably play with the default skins.

Matter of opinion, and appeal to ones taste.

Also take into account that gears is 3rd person, halo is 1st. you would see all the detail closer and more frequently.

That’s true. Although for some guns, such as the magnum, you see very, very little on screen.

That is true. it may be diffrent for side arms. i believe this feature would be for primary human weaponry

You will be able to see it when you melee…I think that the magnum can have a minor attachment of some sort, or maybe an effect
But Yeah this is a great idea! I am all for it, I want to be able to have my weapons look different!

Agreed. I cant wait to see H4’s weaponry.
I made these a really long time ago.
Quick example BR’s
Black Laser
Cotton Candy Warthog
Gold Hog
Red Armor Camo and Grey game AR
Camo Pelican
Flower Goose
Crazy Armor
Green Dot armor
Colored Visors
My idea was more along the lines of for customs only though. And it was a paint it yourself kind of idea. I really hate seeing pink guns and all kinds of other crazy things in matchmaking. I just think it would be cool to say make a Jurassic Park map and make the hogs look like the jeeps in the movie. Then add like a jungle camo to the guns. I know it might sound like much but I just look at it as I look at the Forza Car editor.
Could work, I like the idea.
But i think Gears Of War 3 screwed up expecting the players to pay for em using MS points.
Aslong as that isn’t the case i’m up for that!

I would rather have exclusive armour parts or effects

Ew please no. This isn’t cod or gears
Your right, it is Halo, and They would be REAL WORLD skins. not fantasy skins.
I like the idea of weapons skins.
-They look cool.
-Unlike Armor Permutations, and Armor Effects you can actually see the your skins most of the time.
> I would rather have exclusive armor parts or effects
Why? Weapon skins you can actually see them most of the time. Unlike Armor, and Effects you hardly see your own at all.
Ofcource only if it is cosmetic then I’m fine with any new armor piece or effect, but also if you select a camo does that camo go on any gun you spawn with and/or any gun you pick up or just a select gun like BR,AR, or sniper?
I’m all for more personalization, just so long as you don’t have to pay for them like in Gears 3. I prefer all of my on disc content to be obtainable via good old fasioned unlocking-through-play.
They would be Unlockables in game. no payment required.
