fair point

I agree that everyone having recon will be boring but it would solve the problem for people who wants Recon badly(Well, for those who actually try to get vidmaster challenges). Recon armor will soon fade into the common category of armor just like how Hayabusa armor was "special" for like 2-3 months after Halo 3 released.

I really don't see why all of you think once recon's out it's going to suck.

I mean if they made some armor permutation that looks like a pair of underwear, and only gave it exclusively to you, would you wear it?

To me, it's what I think is cool that matters and I wear it not because it's rare, but because it looks good.

Why do you think Recon looks good? Doesn't Hayabusa or Security armor look good? Most likely its because its rare. That is why it looks 'good'. If Halo released with Recon as another piece of regular armor would you still think it looks 'good'? It just wouldn't be the unique armor anymore.

No security doesn't look cool and hayabusa is semi cool but just doesn't feel like halo, to be honest i thought recon looked sick back at pax 07 when they first showed a picture of it, i definatly still think it's the coolest not for the rariety (seeing as at pax 07 they hadn't announced it was a bungie/given to people exclusive i just think it looks cool the runner up would be scout armor but the helmet looked ridiculous so i'll probably just end up using the recon head, so no it's not for rarity i've just always thoguth it looked bad ass

Recon will just become the new hayabusa. Everyone will have it to begin with then it will become 'uncool' to wear it because everyone has it.

Look

Who cares? Just be happy you get it. And if for some strange reason your annoyed with people having something that you also have, just change armor! Not that hard.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

Bungie is giving us all a gift.

So let's complain about that before it's even received. You guys must be fun during Christmas.

everyone having recon? so what its not boring its annoying but even though bungie will give a round of recon, not everybody will wear the entire set because not everybody likes it....if you look at my shoulder pad set up and look at a lot of spartans you will see a lot of them copied my set up......i find it annoying that im a trend setter but i just dont care and even though recon will be common it will not be the next hayabusa because with the last 3 vidmasters they could be a pain in the but to get....it could be a few days before we see recon popping up everywhere. and if the people that get all 7 vidmasters want to wear recon let them they've earned it and have been waiting 2 years for it

No it would still look good. I like the sharp edges.

.i find it annoying that im a trend setter
Yes I'm sure everyone with that specific setup is copying you specificially

  • 07.01.2009 6:00 AM PDT

I persoanlly think that recon isnt going to be as popular after ODST, mainly because Halo 3 is slowly going the way of Halo 2, being replaced by Halo Reach. With ODST, the population will be split, plus recon's availability will most likely make it the next hayabusa.

How?

  • 07.01.2009 6:28 AM PDT

Recon's popular because you can't have it (not until ODST). I believe Recon really will go the way of Hayabusa. It will be popular for a few months and EVERYONE will wear it. Afterwards, however, people will get tired of it because everyone wears it. The reason why it became so "special" is because it was hard to get. Now, even though the vidmasters may be difficult, you can get it anytime. It will lose its luster.

I do thank Bungie for allowing us to all to have it. However I call it how I sees it.

seh looks like a alen anyway

If you,listened to the Bungie podcast, they were saying how LITTLE number of people have all the Vidmasters from Halo 3. I think the number is going to be smaller then everyone thinks.

  • 07.01.2009 8:12 AM PDT

Four shots, four kills, reload, repeat. This is the work of a sniper.

Nope. Granted, there will be more with the armor, but not as many as you think...

  • 07.01.2009 8:13 AM PDT

Me and my friends have them all. We just worked together. It's kinda wierd IMO how people don't have all of the Halo 3 ones yet.

Hayabusa isn't even used anymore. In fact, Rogue and Mark V is the most common at the moment. I wear what I like, the real celebrities that's got awarded Recon will still be noticed, just not by the Armour Permutation. People need to get over Recon and Hayabusa, they are nothing alike.

Only reason I'm getting the Vidmasters are for the gamerscore.
