What Armor Do You Want to Return?

Games Halo Infinite
1

What are your favorite armors from 343 and from Bungie that you think should come back in Infinite?

For me, from 343, I would love to see the wetwork cleaner armor come back, and from Bungie, I would want the classic operator armor from Halo Reach (343 operator wasn’t my favorite).

Hopefully in Infinite we don’t have a preset torso, and can mix and match.

I forgot to add… I want all armor to be unlocked THROUGH GAMEPLAY!!

Last edit… maybe: I really really want a palette color picker so that I can get the right shades and brightness for my armor. Normally, I like to go with a rust color and steel, or forest green and white or steel. Some of the preset colors in MCC and H5 weren’t quite the right colors I wanted, so I would love to be able to tweak them with the RGB sliders or an all color palette slider.

EOD has always been my favorite helmet.

CQB’s helmet is my helmet, can’t say much about the armor, cause its only made one appearance, but…

I’d say in general though, bungie made less armor compared to the pile that halo 5 kind of has, I’d say the majority of armor up to halo reach, so just everything bungie ever did.

but as for 343, i rather like the soldier armor, don’t care much for the helmet, but its not the worst either. helmet wise…

i almost want to just list all the specific armors 343’s made that i actually like, but I’m not gonna open halo 4 and 5 to do that… or… i am…

so as far as these uncustomizable armor systems go, there are a lot of them i “like” would like them more if i could customize of course, but a lot of them have cool parts or are wholly cool.

as far as 343 helmets go… there are some i don’t dislike, i suppose, its just hard in contrast with bungie’s helmets and 343’s “helmets”, i don’t dislike teishin, raijin, cypher, dynast and helioskrill… but outside of cypher until cqb came out I’d never wear them.

armors i find generally alright, but helmets, they need to work with whoever designed stuff like seeker and make… maybe not better, just, more appropriately shaped helmets, i mean, go over to the seeker helmet and do a quick spin, what part of this says, “this is totally a helmet i should spend 5 minutes on designing cause a ton of people will wear this”

but no, 343, I’d say most halo 4 helmets, their alright, and a limited few in halo 5 i wouldn’t mind seeing again.

for use though, CQB, soldier armor, and attachments like halo reach and with VISR’s that just have a color select I’d be set.

Classic Reach-Era GUNGIR is at the top of that list. We’ve had this funky looking smoothed over version for two games now and I miss the original lunchbox.

Honestly, it’s easier to write which helmets I don’t want coming back with or without a rework. Mostly Venator and Venture.

As long as I can still wear the Mark VI helmet, and it doesn’t get locked behind being Master Chief’s exclusive armor like his campaign armor in Halo 4 & 5, I’ll manage with whatever else they throw into game armor wise. Definitely wouldn’t complain if we saw the Halo 3 CQB shoulders again.

Hermes is my personal favorite. Can’t wait to use the Gen 3 version since it’s featured in the Shadows of Reach artwork.

First and foremost, my favorite armor is the GEN 2 HUNTER armor!! I definitely want that one, in its entirety, available in multiplayer for sure. Just loved the sleek, F22-on-legs look it had.

Secondly, I loved the bee/old look of the GEN 1 Mk VI in Halo 2 Anniversary. An exquisite blend of old aesthetic with new visuals that was, in my mind, the best version; the version 343i should’ve gone with in Halo 4 with thier new art direction.

Third, I love the GEN 2 COPPERHEAD variant. It’s a sleek, sensual, almost exotic sports car-esque look that really was aggressive, but sumptuous at the same time. Definitely on the keep list.

Fourth, I’d love to see the Helioskrill armor come back. It was just a testament to unique and interesting armors that really stood out as a gorgeous set. I liked combining Copperhead helemt with the Helioskrill body just to ad some extra flair.

Fifth and lastly, Mk V b variant. I know they claimed that the DECIMATOR variant was the closest version, but a true return to form with the fan-favorite Noble 6 armor.

As a side note: I want to see the cod-piece/space diaper toggleable so that those who dont like it can keep it off, or add it. Or at the very minimum, reduce the bulk and size of it so that other armors have that sleek look.

Just my ideas.

hayabusa in halo infinite’s reach-ish art style would make for an interesting armor set

I think both Bungie’s and 343’s scout armors should come back.

Agreed.

Would also like a color option that is like Linda’s armor from H5. I use the 3rd/middle grey color for my loadout (awesome chalk-like color) but it’s definitely not the same. I suppose this is similar to previous games where there was never a green color that is a direct match to Master Chief. I do hope we get a darker green option in Infinite though. The darkest camo green option in H5 (“Moss” or whatever it’s called) looks good in preview view but once you’re actually playing I find it is a lot lighter than it appears in the preview.

I’d love to see JFO and Nightfall helmets come back.

Hear me out on this one… I’d like to see the Seeker armor (not helmet) return with a slight reduction in the bulge of the chest piece. There are some really nice details like the textured undersuit and the visibility of tendons in the hand armor (gauntlets?).

That clean, connected visor is so much better than the split in 3

JFO looks pretty cool, but I’m not a big fan of the Nightfall helmet… it looks like a badly made ODST helmet. Maybe with some tweaks to it, it could look better.

17

Hayabusa without a doubt

18

Mark V. Customization wouldn’t really be complete without the iconic, classic helmet.

19

Maybe we will even get the GRD helmet from the spartan doll in Halo Reach. But what I would love to see is the SPI armor and helmet.

20

I have some picks from each of the games
I would love to see Reach’s Operator, EOD, ODST, Mark V and Commando return
From Halo 3 I’d love to see Recon and the Aesthetic and flight armour, if playable Elites return that is
From Halo 4 I hope we see Recruit and Venator
From Halo 2 Anniversary I’d like to see the Centurion armour come back
From Halo 5, I’d personally like the Air Assault and Scout armours to return
