This topic is us as a community to discuss what we think 343 should add for customization in Halo 5: Guardians.
I think, from the beta customization experince, they should add:
Master Chiefs current armor type- Mark V armor- Some Halo Reach armor (if possible)- Agent Lockes Armor- ELITES- A playlist in matchmaking were you can have a custom loadout (example: Assualt RIfle and Magnum)- CHANGABLE BODY PIECES. In the beta you were only aloud, for example, a MARK VI helmet and alll Recruit body armorThese are somethings on the top of my mind, and if you read this, submit your thoughts on customization thoughts for the full release.
I also know that it wouldn’t make sense to add Elites, but us as a community have been begging 343 to add Elites back. I think, because of all Spartan Abilites, they could give the Elites the abilites. But they should even give it a nick name if they want, like Chris from HaloFollower said they could call it Sanghelli Abilites, or maybe Elite Abilites.
Also, to keep the map packs free. I would like to see them charge for armour and weapon skins. They could still be unlockable like they was in halo 4. But just give people the option to pay for what they want.

There was another post that discussed this issue and I had written a post outlining elite abilities in comparison to Spartan abilities as well as armor elites should have the ability to use in Halo 5.

NO, NO, NO, NOOOO!! Never give Microsoft an opportunity to include microtransactions in a Halo game. Call of Duty does it, Battlefield does it, Dragon Age: Inquisition does it, all of the new Assassin Creed games does it, and it pisses the hell out of everyone. Map packs should be free if they are maps ripped from the game pre-launch to earn extra money ( like all of the planned DLC for Destiny), or if the game seriously screws up its launch ( like the MCC). Otherwise, if 343i is taking the time to make DLC maps after the launch, then they should be paid DLC to give them an incentive to make the maps as good as they can possibly be. Let’s make sure Halo stays good, otherwise it will be like all the other AAA shooters.
