It seems like way too much customization. Adding leg armor woulnt hurt, but we dont kneed Chest, stomach, and groin variants, or shoulder, forearm and hand all for the same general area. Chest, Helmet, Arm, and leg would be sweet, but im fine with just the ones we have now.
When I posted this idea for Halo 3 before armor permutations were discovered, people sait it would be silly to be able to mix a helmet and two different shoulder variants. I mean, two different shoulder variants? Absurd...
At the time it did seem a little absurd, but there's a line to how far customization should go.

Add in Mark IV armor from the Cole Protocol (like what Grey Team wears.) I would rather have that than the Halo Wars Mark IV armor. Shoulder-mounted Flashlights= AWESOME in my book.

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

I would like the option to customize everything. I would love it if they had this as an armor choice to go along with it as well.

Honestly, I don't see the problem with that.

Nah. The councellor "big model, little hitbox" thing would be confusing... It's also break the elite's outline. I LMAOd when I first met em in H2.

Maybe the same shaped helmet, just smaller and more compact.
Maybe you could shoot the helmet off, but it would do no damage, reducing the amount of times you saw the large helmet. I don't think it would be confusing at all.


Oh! I thought you meant that the bullets would be passing through the extra helmet as if it didn't exist. Now I get it.

Better, but doesn't change the fact that you'd have a huge view obscuring noob running around on your team :?

In fact, if one of those -blam!-s were on my team the first thing I'd do is shoot their helmet off....


Wait. That sounds like it would be funny!

All in favor of armor parts that are just for show that can be shot off?

I like the basic idea of costomization but a helmet the size Texas of can really make you stand out but on the other side there would be an enemy sniper ready to kill you, before he shoots his, her view would be block by some fools helmet. Joking aside, the huge helmets would give Elite haters more verbal ammo unless Cheif wears a pink tutu which is not likely.

That should be up to the player to decide whether or not he/she wants to have a big helmet, I would love to have the Councilor helmet.

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

I like the Spec-Ops, and the Heretic perms. In fact, I am astounded that the Heretic head did not get in Halo 3.

My old account is R1BS

A While back I drew some Elite permutations:

-Elite-
Juggernaut (Helmet, Body, Shoulders)
Raptor (Helmet, Body, Shoulders)
SWAT (Helmet)
Leviathan (Helmet, Body, Shoulders)

Hope you guys enjoy.

the leviathan looks ok but the others could use some work.

in addition to what you have put here:

how about an armor detail option that would allow you to place a detail to the armor

you could have ammo belts, bandoliers, brass knuckles, a backpack, etc

each detail has a certain place it will go on the body.

some would go on the hands (brass knuckles?, etc)

so you choose a hand style (lets say mark IV) and then their would be a sub menu which allows you to choose certain hand details, maybe scout armor has a certain hand detail?

this is what i had in mind

ill discuss this tommorow, i need to go to bed... es muy tired

if you want a video rendered but arnt pro, message me :D

Another thing would be able to make your own color. Like have a color bar. You choose the base color then it goes to another page. On this page it has 4-5 bars that you can change the colors. Press A to lock on to the bar then use the analog stick/d-pad to move the bar.
