Or your all lacking intelligence and there will be a health bar, and you just refuse to beleive that it was a place holder bar, like bungie said.
Or maybe I just look for the positives in why they would do such a move. I certainly don't -blam!- and moan about something so small. Removing the "bars" (A VISUAL CHANGE) is a good move, imo. At least when I think about it into relation to Halo. Play a no shield game with a piece of tape over your health bars. Then imagine that you can dual wield any single handed weapon.. Then see how pointless the VISUAL BARS are.
Lets see, you're playing coop online (this is a mighty ASSumption), and you and your partner have no "health packs". All you have is each other, and your shields. When one of you loses your shields, then you need to speak up, because you're as good as dead without 'em. And you have no health packs. Your partner and your teamwork is your new saving grace. I can only imagine how tense it would be online. Anytime my shields go down, I'll be freaking out and screaming to my teamates for some backup, or suppression fire, or something.
