I like the helmet idea but the rest of the armor could be better

The averege number of options per customizable article is 7. I think, that should be changed. Maybe, people could suggest well thought out armor sets. Im just saying, there arent so many armor sets as I had hoped when I heard there would be customizable sets in Halo 3. Please everyone continue this thread with there own thoughts. Maybe even suggestions of armor sets.

Anyway, here is my armor suggestion.

Name: LRSE
Discription: Long Range Specialization Equipment (LRSE), Issued in 2507, is distributed to long range specialists.
Basic Layout Discription:
Helmet- Ski Goggle lens with scope in one lens.
Shoulder- Hard to Describe - See sketch
Body- Resembles a Star - With indentation of X in the star

Edit- I made sketch - Here is the link-

agreed, but don't like the shoulders if they're going with a marksman/sharpshooter permutation

  • 11.26.2007 6:29 PM PDT

you should have the chest resemble that of a Gundam... but still retain its spartan look.... that would b cool...

It would be cool if they would actually just release new armour along with some extra stuff sometime later for free.
Willing to give them time to avoid animation flaws, etc. though.

Caboose: And it turns out the glowy sword thingy is really a key.

Chruch: Yeah Its a sword but it in certain situations it just has certain key like functions.

Caboose: Or its a key all the time and when you shove it in people...it unlocks their death.

Helmets cool but I think that the shoulders would have to be somewhere along the lines of the scout shoulders. Long range marksmen need to be mobile and light. and the chest maybe something like a toned down version of the CQB chest.

7^4 = 2401 different customization options. And that isn't enough?

if the graphics and processing power could keep up.. it would be awesome to include maybe some kind of ninja hood deal.. with some kind of bandage flapping around in the wind. that would be pimp.
be something like ninja gaiden or something

What would be cool is if Bungie added an update that allowed people to create their own polygon meshes for new armor and upload it through bungie.net. and there really aren't animation issues because the reason we are allowed customization is that that permutations are applied to a figure that is already rigged for the animations. This would allow the halo community to show their individualism and creativity.

As much as I would love the SPI it brings up issues with making it work with the main storyline, why they have sheilds and what happened to their Stealth properties. Closest thing u can get is the EVA with hayabusa shoulders and the CQC chest in pale green =/

"YOUR DESTRUCTION IS THE WILL OF THE GODS, AND WE ARE THEIR INSTRUMENT."

Oh, and Elite armor.
Arbiter. Nuff said.
Honor Guard. Also nuff said.

Spartan.
MTA
Multiple Terrain Assault.
A visor like the rogues, with a face mask(Breather look, circle with two side breather cylinders.Almost like a gas mask.)
Shoulders would be like EVA / EOD.Would jut out like EOD, then droop down and kinda melt into shoulders like EVA.
Body would basically be M6, With an Extra layer and a two small tanks that would attach by small wires to helm. Would have a pistol holster on right side of chest, with the handle coming out.

HALO
High Altitude Leaving Orbit. Naw, jk.

Dreadnaught
Would have a slitted visor, like a thin line kind of.Would have the a facemask like security(The mouth area, that is.)And a black leather(Or w/e the black is,) around visor and then up the middle like scout helm.
Shoulders would be like security, minus the under hang. Mainly EOD shoulders x3(Size wise)
Body would be like Scout, except bad would be bigger, and less visible, making it look more like a fat or muscular spartan.

i think they should have some sort of gunman type armor, like the body has the X of bullets with some grenades and maybe a holster with a pistol or something... you know all loaded up. then shoulders with a sort of tough almost spiker/biker sort of look. same with the helmet.

another that i can think of is like beat up, sort of dirty armor. a couple of dents here and there, dirt and mud, maybe a bullet hole. the sort of beat up veteran look, ya know?

possibly even a sort of combined thing

what ya think?

I know, but still. I mean, where does Friggin ninja armor fit in the storyline?

i just had a spark idea! what if we could be different races? like be the covenant, some grunts, maybe brutes. I for one think it would be funny trying to kill a tiny grunt , but theyd have to make him slower or something to make up for being smaller. not the best idea ever, but what ya think?

ASAV (Ancient Spartan Armor Variable)

Only available to those who have achieved a General rank in the Spartan program.
Helmet: Very much resembles the helmets of the ancient Spartans (Ancient greece), but instead of a feather or fur hawk/mane over the top, has fiber optics.

Body: Same as Mark VI, but with optional cape attached, but made of the material used to emulate active camo, subtle details including your emblem.

Shoulders: A more rounded off version of the Mk VI, but running down half the arm, with slits/ridges on it.


EDIT: CONCEPT ART COMING SOON!
