Heeeellllllooooooo, your playin the MC not yourself in Campain.

I agree with this. In the campaign mode you aren'tplaying yourself, you are playing the MC, who has green armor. Let's keep it that way. Customize your own armor in Multiplayer! Which is what the purpose of that multiplayer aspect is for.

and yet again i will say.......

the addition of custom colors and emblems in the campaign mode will NOT GIVE YOU A HEART ATTACK and will cause you no pain in general, if its there will you not play Halo 2?
No, ull keep ur sage green like other people that want it that way and ull have tons of fun...

lol like color is going to make a lick of difference when you are dealing with AI. i doubt bungie is going to say

IF color = green THEN
AI.attack = false
ELSE
AI.attack = true
END IF

the only place where color might make a difference is in MP. so let us change the dang color in SP if we want.

First off... Why would you want Bungie to even waste their time doing this delaying the game further...
Secondly.. in the demo when they say that spartans can change colours and emblems, thats for multi-player... because multi player isnt part of the storyline, there arnt 16 other spartans left, there is no blood gultch... you see?
And in single player you play as the MC.. and i dont think he has the time between saving his a$$ and the human race.. to get a paint job.

Actually it would play hell with the cinematics, having every possible colour for the in game demos and would be a waste of memory.
In campaign you play as John 117 and he has green armour. In every screenshot and demo of the campaign master chief has green armor which almost unofficially proves outright you cannot change it.
Yes it might be nice if it is in like many of you think. But rather than speculating on a topic that deep down you all know the true answer to, I think its best to just say it will be the cheif's traditional colour throughout the game and enjoy it when it comes out

I am going to repeat this:

uhh... in Campaign mode? uhh... no. Hello this is the Bungie-verse you're playing in not your own little fantasy land where yhe UNSC issues you a pink and yellow suit because you think it makes you look pretty.


not to mention cinematics but also all the animations between getting in and out of vehicles.

and I think that the MP in Halo 2 actually uses some modified part of the Campaign mode's engine (the graphics are toned way down to allow for voice and online requirements). So just porting one element from one to the other is not as easy as you might make it out to be.

dont even talk about cinematics not being able to handle it....cinematics in Halo 2 will most likely show everything the way it is...there will be no set cinematic.....

example: you have a plasma rifle right before you go into the cutscene.....the scene shows you with a plasma rifle not a battlerifle....so dont say that if would reck havoc on the cinematics......why does everyone assume that Bungie would put something in if it was going to mess up the game WHICH it wouldnt......

Nightshade you're trying pretty hard to make a case for other colors in single player. Any particular reason why? Do you want to take away from the originality and feel of the Halo universe? Or do you like all your action games to be all Sim-y? I mean what's the big deal? The storyline goes one way and the online/ MP mode goes another (where it's essential that you can distinguish yourself... in the the Campaign a walking super cyborg is enough to set you apart from the other Marines) ...what's the big deal?

i dont even care about the damn colors.....what i care about is the fact that for every thread where something is suggested for adding to Halo 2 EVERYONE says no it cant be done cause the

"game will be delayed"
"i dont like it so no one else should have the option" (sarcasim)

and other stuff like that.....it just pisses me off that so many people just cant say yeah i dont like it at all, but yet again I DONT HAVE TO USE IT......

ex. people were talking about bots and people were actually saying that the game would be delayed or that the single player wouldnt be as good because they would be focusing too much on bots.....give me a break

This topic has alread been beaten to death but might as well add my option. Sure changing the color would be cool for some but personally, my MC stays green. It's ment to be that way for camo. and I think seeing a Red and Blue MC running around might be a bit.. attention grabbing? I like Halo because its realistic and I would fire the person who decided to make a Mark VI armor flashie. Bleh.
