Is something on your mind? I'm pretty sure there is

I was wondering how the health system works out. Do you have the ability to recover like in Call Of Duty or do you have to pick up health packs?

Your shield recovers like in other Halo games but the big long bar at the top of the screen will go down and you need health packs to get that back up. Hope this helps

You get the initial health and re-gen like CoD, but after that's gone, you start taking health damage, so you have to find health packs to increase your hp.

From what i've heard, you have
1. Stamina. Stamina is kind of like a form of shield, when you get hit, you lose stamina and your hud goes red. You slowly regain Stamina over time, i believe.

2. Heatlh, this is like from Halo 1. You lose it, and the only way to recover it is health packs.

From what I know, it's similar two the Halo 1 health system. You have a bit of a shield and then you have a health bar that in order to regenerate you have to get a health pack. But I could be completely wrong.

Funny story.

That is what I was thinking. Return of the Halo CE Damage System?

Just wondering why you said "two" instead of "to", thanks.

and how!

You have what noobs might call "shields" but really it is a Stamina bar representing your armor in a way. Your armor can take some damage before you start taking damage directly, and once your Stamina recovers your armor can take more damage.

Sort of an odd system, but it will make more sense when we get to play it.
