Bungie has said that the master chief will get a new suit of armor. Does this mean graphics wise or in the story line. Plus they said the chief will have new abilities, other than looking around corners and sprinting.Thoughts.

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

The new armor is the one he is wearing in screenshots, so both.

I think what Duce11 means is the functionality. I don't think we can dispute the fact that there is new armor, but does this new armor give us new functionality?

Is the radar different? Better? Is there a heat signature mode? etc. Things like that....


(I hope so:) )

i hope it gives us like night vision and thermal vision and such plus stronger shields so i can take more fire longer, i like to have marines standing behind me shooting over my sholder and me takin them out with the AR or maybe a sniper if there in close quaters.

yes thats what I meant. I hope you get new functions such as jet thrusters for low gravity battlefields. Just a thought. It would be kinda corny for a jet pack tho.

In first strike i didnt really go into detail about the new suit. Dr. Halsey refitted them on reach with the new parts.

With the moon as being a confirmed level, I hope the new armor has some type of gravitational ability.

  • 04.13.2004 2:07 PM PDT

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

I think a jet pack, grappling hook or low grav ability would ruin the game.

PS. Don't double post Duce11, just edit the one you have

Night vision would be good, and not just on the sniper rifle. especially now since yoiu can be a bit more stealthy.

I think that the new armor that bungie was talking about might have to do with your ability to wield a Plasma Sword and Jackal Shield (if those ability's actually exists). From the look of both it seems that they energy output is either integrated into the respective units armor, or in some small device that is directly connected to the units central nervous system, which explains why both power down the instant its wielder dies. Despite how they both work, I dont think that either can be wielded by a human. So I hope that the Master Chiefs new armor has the ability to wield both somehow through some techincal mumbo jumbo. I also hope that they incorporate both night vision and heat vision. It seems a shame that he has that visor and that he still relies on a flashlight.

Yeah. But it would clutter the screen if they went into the multiple vision modes, I'm all for Thermal vision and stuff, but we don't need a Terminator styled screen.

New abilities would be nice, as long as Halo stays halo and doesn't become something else. The reason it is so great is it's simplicity.
