Subject: Why is the recon helmet in H3:ODST have an orange visor?

Also, as a side note, about the zero-g thing. Why is her suit not sealed then? her fingers are exposed.

That IS weird, isn't it. So if the suit is not Zero-G adapted, it would mean it's a mistake by Bungie, or she wears different gloves or something when in space.

There is no ozone layer in space. Which means there is much more solar radiation. The extremely thin gold blocks the solar radiation. The cost would be enormous if everybody had gold visors.


Cost does not effect the Halo Universe, Maybe the humans found a planet that is VERY high in the mineral of Gold. Don't try to put today's standards into the Halo Universe.

No, just no. It could save money on the long run. It would save the cost of making a new visor for a soldier who actually needs it.

This is war you idiot, its either survive or go extinct. Why would you waste a planet made mostly of gold for "in the long run" when you won't even have a long run.

Its either ensure the safety of the soldiers or die.

*Que witty comeback that just makes proving a point on the Bungie forums impossible*

*sigh* Don't call me an idiot, when your the one who doesn't know what your talking about. Your right, it is war. Which is exactly the reason why you wouldn't waste resources. The more you make out of the little resources you have, the better. Making gold visors for people who don't need it isn't conserving resources, it's wasting them.

And your going off with the gold planet thing as if it's real... Wtf?

If I was standing in front of you, I would punch you in the face unbelievable hard at how stupid that statement was.

And BTW, we know the ending of Halo... And I'm pretty sure the covenant never stole any ozone layers... And good luck painting your face with some metal...

Not even. You basically, with that video, indirectly confirmed you had no come back. Stop trying to change the subject. You don't like me? Good, I don't like you.

And the comment about the covenant taking the ozone layer wasn't funny, it was stupid, very stupid.

You are getting worked up over the color of a visor on a character in a video game. You have won the Fanboy award. We now would like to hear an acceptance speech.

Subject: Is the recon wearing character a spartan?

Hey guess what!? I play CoD more than Halo, but I'm not an annoying fanboy. I love CoD more, but I like how involved the Halo Community is...

Who says Spartans can't be girls?

Maybe its a Spartan I
EDIT: ^ Don't quote me on that :P


Bungie already confirmed that ONI captain Veronica Dare isn't a Spartan.

Subject: Why is the recon helmet in H3:ODST have an orange visor?

The color of the visor has nothing to do with whether or not the character is a spartan. ODST go on sneaking missions in close quarters where the gold visor would stand out. On the other hand the Recon teams do reconnasiance work over greater distances where the improved vision would be helpful and greatly needed. A gold tinted visor is used because the human eye is designed to see in the daylight and is more perseptive to the yellow end of the sprectrum and less so to the blue. A gold tinted lens filters the blue end of the spectrum eliminating haze over long distances and allowing the wearer to focus better. Yellow lenses are commonly used in shooting ranges, construction, and paintball for the same reasons.

Or someone thought it would be a good way to make the recon helmet stand in the crowd of ODST.
