As a big fan of Elites in the series, i would love to see a Fracture event where Humanity joined the covenant in some strange way. I would love to see more armor similar to Halo 5’s HELIOSKRILL, as it was one of my favorite armors ever made. With the new Rakshasa armor having that elite shoulder piece, it just made me think of how cool it would be to have spartans with similar armor to Elites.
So what would you guys like to see from future Fracture Events/Cores?
Ill take a guess that something medieval will be appearing eventually. Knight helms, chainmail, that sort of thing.
Interesting concept but seeing as Brutes still retained their savage weaponary design and their armor, I think Humans if joined the Covenant wouldn’t be all too different.
The major differences would be the Shield Tech and the Tech of the ordinary soldiers. Spartans will still exist since they were originally made to quell insurrections, so I would expect their armor to be more or less the same, except with access to the Prophet’s tech, their Shield flickers would be blue, like Elites.
As for the armor design, they aren’t ceremonial like Elites are, and Humans don’t specifically have a Warrior Culture, so I think Human armor would still revolve around efficiency and potency, but since the technology Humans will now have access to is on a much higher level, their armor would be made even more efficient.
This would ultimately result in something more akin the the Crysis suit than the classic Mjolnir we have right now.
This would essentially mean that in that universe setting, the suit would have very tough personal shields and camoflauge, but have very little focus on actual armor on the body. The suit will primarily serve to provide shields and increase the physical performance of the wearer, but no more than that. No titanium alloy plating and such to weigh down on the Spartan.
Viking inspired armor
Honestly I think 343i have painted themselves into a little corner with the Spartan customisation in Infinite. I expect more tedious kitbash stuff to appeal to those who love that aspect of the armor.
What I would like to see will never transpire. You can’t even get a female Spartan body, let alone Makee or playable Covenant. At least they got female Spartans right in the Paramount+ show.
Fractures Belos
Fractures Blackguard
Fractures Drengr
Fractures Space Cowboy
Fractures Reclamation (Humans absorbed into Covenant and rebelled AU)
Fractures Epimethus (Forerunner Promethean AU)
Fractures Coalition (Gears of War crossover)
Fractures Wasteland (Fallout crossover)
Fractures Hellslayer (Doom crossover)
Honestly with how you named them, they kinda sound like leaks that would end up being true
I really like the Forerunner one, imagine its like a universe where Humanity successfully took up the mantle of responsibility and obtained the full power of forerunner tech. I also just wanna look like the Didact.
I actually have it as an alternate universe where The Didact composed the UNSC Infinity instead of New Phoenix, causing the humans to become Promethean Soldiers and Knights. However, something peculiar happened with the Spartans.
They became a new form of Promethean known as Titans (the name of the Armor Core).
These Titans remained sentient and their own individuals while still having a sort of hive-mind connection between one another.
Loyal the UNSC and humanity, they fought The Didact and defeated him.
Now they are led by their leader, The Master Chief who was not composed but imprinted back at Ivanoff Station when The Didact composed the people within.
And as a legion of many Titans, they defend Humanity.
You failed to suggest a Flood Core. Disappointment.
Why have that be a core when it should be a variation of each armor core reserved for Infection?
It’s already been said, but a Doom or Gears crossover would be legendary. I would absolutely rock the Doom’16 Praetor armour if it ever appears.
Bonus points if there were a weapon skin which makes the Bulldog look like the Doom shotgun since they are already similar anyway. Even more points if there were a kill effect which plays the glory kill music.
Maybe I wanna look like a Flood in BTB, idk. Would be cool.

DOOM armour
Thats it
I want my Drengr armor back. But I won’t be happy until I can put MK V on it like I can in Halo 3.
The Gears of War COG Armor
I could see future Fracture Cores expanding on the Fractures armors we got in MCC in season 8. Possibly crossover types like others mentioned above, Gears of War and DOOM.
The obvious crossover stuff with the massive ip store ms has to play with is abiut all i want from fractures.
A Hayabusa return would be cool if possible. And maybe an ODST type season like when the Fireteam Raven armor was added to MCC. Maybe that would be good for the (hopeful) addition of Firefight?
