I am of an open mind and I am willing to hear criticism. Also: That's stupid and you're stupid.

No.
The inclusion of the ability to play as elite models in Halo 3 proved to be a bad decision for Bungie considering all the implications of different hitboxes and sizes. They would do well to only include one type of player model in Halo: Reach multiplayer


Elites are the same as Spartans, you use this as an excuse for not being able to kill them.

Tell that to the thousands of people that complain daily about Elites in SWAT. Having multiple player models is far too much of a hassle and the cons outweigh the pros. It's not worth it for Bungie to allow for Elites, let alone Female armor in Reach.


Yes, I would gladly tell them this, "Elites are the same as Spartans, you use this as an excuse for not being able to kill."

There are just more Elite players in SWAT because of they "myth" going around that tells players Elites are harder to hit, when they clearly are no different from Spartans.

well, the body under the armor could be female and the armor could be smaller

It's cherry, tastes like strawberry, looks like watermelon, and you think it's raspberry just because.

No matter what gender, all Spartans have the same armor. No extra room for the mammary glands

I am an orange mist amongst a sea of blue, so my flames may stand out and represent all those who trully believe in this great sacriment of Bungie history, let my story be told as the only legendary still standing even after I fall Just as my comrades did so graciously to fight for the true loyal.
If you have legendary, would you stand by my side and go forth into a sea blue and demise as my brothers fighting for those who are trully loyal to Bungie?

the far right spartans are linda and grace

I don't think new armour should be invented entirely, but I do reckon female Spartans should actually look more femenine... despite the fact that after so many years of training and genetic steroid treatment they just wouldn't. Who cares about realism? It'll keep the girls happy, 'cos I doubt most women want to look like blokes.

If there was female MJOLNIR armor those Spartans might get -blam!-ly harrassed by the covenant.

Really? It looks pretty much the same as the Master Chief's armor.

Actually I think this is a pretty good idea, it wouldn't be that hard to make it fair. I don't see why so many people are against this.

Agreed


Nice picture of female Spartan Armor.


According to this idea, and if female SPARTANS really look like this, then I would say it's safe to assume that female SPARTANS skipped puberty, considering they are this flat-chested.

good idea but bungie has excepted halo wars as cannon

i voted yes but still

Alice is female but in this video you can not tell witch spartan she is

if you haven't beaten halo wars don't watch


Notice, however, the SPARTAN armor has a different shape and is considerably more bulky in the upper torso area than in Halo 2 or 3. I assume the armor was intentionally redesigned in a way that can work for both genders, especially if there's a female SPARTAN character in the story, as you say. If this same concept is used in Halo: Reach, than I may be able to see more how the SPARTANS can look identical. With the current player models, it is quite obvious that all the SPARTANS are men, especially with the default chest piece.

Don't worry, It's gunna b k.

After extensive reading of this topic, not really, i conclude that it doesent matter wether the're should be female armor.
HOWEVER, female armors will probably get teabagged, humped or crotch-to-mouth-ed alot more.
girls, trust me on this one

  • 07.18.2009 4:13 AM PDT

When I read the title I thought you wanted boobs, but on the inside there was much more mooshy, uhh... words... (Phew. Close miss.)

I guess an option for female armor wouldn't hurt.

Look at the banner at the top of this forum. Do all of those Spartans look the same? Do none of them look female?


Easy, they aren't all Spartans. Where on the banner is it labeling them Spartans? Oh yeah, it's not. In fact I spot an ODST and what looks to be an Elite.


Wow Fr34k Sh0, you're so wrong it hurts...

Spartan Armor is Uni-sex, there is no such thing as "Female Spartan Armor"




so the banner is a illusion... look, I can see a female spartan there, I don't know about you

But I can see why the girls are complaining about only girl armore because sometimes girls arent reconized in halo 3 well only when you kill them you can tell because they scream like girls!!!LOL

"Some people think they can outsmart me. Maybe. But I have yet to meet one who can outsmart a bullet."

New elite amor first. Then worry about micromanaging Spartan armor.

Sending me a group invite or some kind of other pointless, time wasting advert gets you blocked. Don't bother wasting your time. kthnxbai

The sole reason why I doubt Bungie would put it in is because of balance issues. People already complain about Elites as it is.

I find it ironic that you used a picture from the graphic novel to "prove" your point, when if you had actually read it, you would know they are unisex.

Even if it's not unisex, a smaller hitbox would be a ridiculous advantage.

I have read the halo novels and the second spartan to the right could only be kelly. She is small and super fast. I think that if they had female armor it could take less damage but be way more manuverable and flexible thats what i think.

Ya, either Kelly or Lucy



lucy if i remember correctly is a sparton lll (not on reach) if you mean lindia by lucy then your right
