Why cant we just have the Mark VI??

Why cant we just get the mark VI??
This is like a little peeve of mine in recent halo games but why do we have an extremely misshaped mark VI in multilayer? I mean if you look at these two pictures one of master chief from halo 3 and the other Halo 5 rendering.

Looking at them both there is an instant difference in the two (besides colour obviously). The biggest difference that catches me all the time is the shoulders, why do they have to be more oval and massive? It cant be a movement issue because its never been a problem in halo 2 & 3 so why change it anyway? They hardly look mark VI at all now.

Next thing is the chest. In halo 2 & 3 the chest seemed so smooth and rounder but in halo 5 it looks slant with a corner like thing in the centre it seems more flat too. a couple of other things as well like the back and the boots. The boots seem to have bigger gaps in some areas and the the two thruster looking things are a little oversized.

Its not a massive deal to me its just something I have wondered about since the release of halo 4. And if 343i think their new design is correct then why not use it as chiefs armour in halo 2 anniversary?

The new Mark VI is like 343i took all the things wrong with their current armor models (floating knee plates, weird primary-colored undersuit mesh, removed midriff armor) and put it on Mark VI. They even took away the regular gold visor and replaced it with this kind of burnt orange. Now, from what I’ve seen in Halo 5, it seems like they’ve fixed one of those things, but I wouldn’t even mind this bulkier variant if they’d just get rid of the mesh and add the original GEN1 Mark VI as an option.

I fail to see the big deal about the armor. Shoulders look bigger, but other than that it looks like Mark. VI to me.

I like halo 5 mark VI, it looks like it enough to me

I love this armor !

I was surprised the Halo 4 one came out the way it did. Aside from the shaping of the helmet, the armor was fairly true to the original in looks while incorporating the new details like more visible thruster packs and chip port on the helmet.

Halo 5 seemed to fix most of its issues, reincorporating the cod piece and cleaning up the textures. It is my favorite version so far.

I wish 343 could have used this for the opening sequences of Halo 4. He could just receive the new armor later instead of calling it a modified Mark VI.

The H5 Mark VI you posted looks good to me. It seems like a good compromise after the ridiculous look of Master Chief’s “Mark VI” in Halo 4. There was no reason to completely redo his armor without any story explanation. I don’t mind him getting an armor upgrade, as long as it makes sense. But when he goes into cryo-sleep in Halo 3 with one set of armor, and wakes up in Halo 4 with a completely different-looking set.

Halo canon made a video about it on his channel that explains why it changed.

I know what’s going on here. Some of you(like me) want back the Bungie’s style design for armors. In this case for MK VI, the original MK VI!

I must admit: the mark VI of H5G is very nice. It’s different from H4(that one was ugly).

But i must admit another thing: i really want back the original MK VI designed from Bungie. It’s my favourite armor and i know this is a little problem that 343 can just ignore but what it makes halo a fantastic game is also the design of armors not only the gameplay!

The style of the buildings, structures, environment, armors help to make Halo a GREAT game. Better of any fps around!

In poor words: 343i PLEASE pick up the old and nostalgic MARK VI gen 1 armor!

Look at this MK VI gen 1: http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2014/355/7/a/official_halo_2_anniversary___master_chief_render_by_fotusknight-d8amnla.jpg

I wish we have this armor for the upcoming halos. It’s…so…so…just perfect <3

I’m really not a fan of the huge visible jet/thruster pack on the backs/shoulders of the armor in Halo 4.

I kind of wishit was all just incorporated into the armor and low profile.

I actually think the Halo 5 design looks better. I am in love with it. I hope the final game has spartans with that many polygons, and reflection shinyness form lighting.

The in game H5 beta spartans looked like poo.

But that render of Halo 5 mark vi gen 1 looks beautiful.

Halo 4 Mark V armor is ugly a bit IMO, starge that in CEA they made a nice armor, but they sucked it in Halo 4.

Halo 4 MK V is different from CEA because the company that made the anniversary grapich is different from the one which made MK V for H4 :wink:

I thought 343 made both…CAE still winner.
