Wish I could buy individual armor set pieces SO BAD!

Take for instance the new “Brodie” armor set; parts of it are super cool (IMO) while others not so much. I feel I’d put together a pretty badass Spartan with some of the individual cosmetics from that set combined with some of the other pieces I have (or are available to buy in other sets). However, I cannot justify spending $14 for 1 or 2 pieces of the armor!
Why not divide the total cost by number of items in the set and offer everything individually? That way I can pick and choose. Some money made from me is better than no money right?
I understand development on the store front ‘In-Game’ takes time, but what about offering these pieces individual online? Maybe Waypoint? Maybe even the Microsoft store? I am admittedly no programmer, but I feel like Microsoft could throw up a Halo DLC listings in no time on their existing store front. Then just have a message In-game stating “To purchase individual items from this set visit the Microsoft Store”. Simple.
I’d spend money (support the same) more. 343 would bring in more money. Microsoft would make more money! Wins all around!
It’s a shame, because I’m fairly certain I will not be able to buy individual items before the end of Season 2, and some of these cool pieces will be lost to me forever because I will not she’ll out large sums for sets with a majority of pieces I don’t want. Please consider 343!

Bethesda does this to some extent in their Atom Shop. Bundles are offered as well as individual pieces from the bundle. In fact as cosmetics rotate over time, any individual pieces you already purchased will be deducted price wise from future sets.
Now that Bethesda is under the same umbrella as 343 perhaps this will be something that comes to Infinite.

This will probably get implemented in Season 6. If Infinite is still with us.

Would be nice… I often only want one piece on a set, but am being forced to pick up the entire set because there’s no other way to obtain said piece.

Enigma for example, all I want is the Mark VII Silver Visor and that’s it. But the only way I can aquire it is if I purchase the entire Enigma bundle.

Eaglestrike core + carbon coating + kerberos helmet with band attachment + night wisp visor + jacknife chest + defender shoulder+ breath effect … One of the best Wolfenstein’s armory :+1:

Honestly, Halo Infinite needs to adopt R6 Siege’s style of cosmetic shop.
Allow us to buy singular items or buy them in bundles.
Allow for us to grind for Currency A or buy Currency B in order to obtain ALL items in the shop.

People have been asking for this since launch. Either it’ll happen twelve months down the line with no warning and no announcements other than “tada, it’s here!” or it’ll never happen. I’m not holding my breath. The way they do this is so counterintuitive and it’ll never make sense to me. It’s like they don’t want to make any money from the shop.

But than people would spend less.

If you could instead view all past items simultaneously to purchase.

That would be different.
Even if individually they cost slightly more.

Some things must be purchased together though.
(Like coating and emblem sets)

I am also frustrated by this. I am hoping that, after some time, we are able to unlock previous armor sets by simply completing challenges like in MCC. That is what I tell myself when I need to resist spending every spare cent I have on the new stuff. I hope they impliment the system Bethesda used to have like bloody-kisses was talking about. That would be ideal.
