Ok, I know someone has probably already asked this but, why are the Elite Combat Forms’ armor white even though there are no Ultras encountered in the game? Why not blue like in Halo 2/ 3?
Canon-wise, we didn’t see Ultras in the game, but they existed.
Non-canon, time constraints.
Makes sense, white armor is obviously more easy to render then bright blue armor.

More Non-canon: in the original game there’s only one flood model and texture for the Elite combat forms. Tho it would of been better if they would of made the texture look more infected looking than white, maybe a light yellow color.
If you want a canon explanation maybe the paint of the Elite armor faded away.

I used this explanation for a tread a few days ago.
Just like water rusts metal, maybe flood flesh rusts what ever elites make their armour from.
