Forums? Psh.

I've read the books, but i'm not keen enough on the details to know, so I'm wondering. What kind of armor were Spartans in during the battle of Reach. I know atleast Chief had been upgraded to Mk. V, but were they all? I ask because more armor is good armor. Can we expect Mk. IV or lower in Reach?

We should expect Mark V. First Strike mentions shields on Fred, so it makes sense. Also ,they were all on Reach at the same time then in the Pillar of Autumn. If one Spartan got it, and they were all in the same place, it would be logical that they all got it.

Probably Mark V, but nothing less than Mark IV.

Mark IV is Mk V but without energy shields, so armours will atleast look the same.

I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Mk. 5 but with different variants. Maybe CQB, EVA and EOD armors are pretty run of the mill so they have compatible variants? This may explain the ODST helmet to the far right.

Also, it is inevitable we'll get more MP armor.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Nope, they were refitted with Mark V armour's. Maybe if we have missions before The Battle of Reach we will have Mark IV

Because Muslims surgically implant organic bombs in their testicles, which in turn will be injected into women during sex, which will grow into BABY BOMBS!

No it's not. They look completely different.

Before Reach they were all equiped with Mark V for their mission to capture a prophet, so we will see Mark V in Reach

Too often, people post on forums and just regurgitate what they've seen already and don't really explain their own views. - achronos

probably a mix of MKV and MKIV

I Love ODST. Nice game.

Maybe Mark IV but not Mark III. Read about it at Halopedia.
