The point of war is not to die for your country, but to make the other bastard die for his.- Gen. George S. Patton.

Avatar rewards are something fairly recent in the consoles lifespan. They consist of costume pieces, background objects, and objects for your avatar to fiddle with. These rewards are free, to be given out with the accomplishment of an achievement,
or so it goes. So, that being the case, what halo themed avatar rewards would you like to see implemented in Reach?

To start off, here's some of mine.

Costume pieces:

Katana (on back) for getting all 1,000 achievement points in Reach :P

ODST armor

Customizable spartan armor

UNSC Officer's uniform

Radio equipment (on back)

Background objects:

Your character in a ghost

Your character in a warthog (drivers seat, gunners seat, or side seat. Any seat you aren't occupying can be filled with people that you select from your friends list. In case you don't have any friends, nondescript marines can cover for them.

Your character in a hovering hornet (same attributes as the warthog above)

Hill with either red or blue flags in the background

Your character sitting in the prophets hover-chair
Sgt. Johnson in the background, running across the screen repeatedly with his hair on fire, being pursued by an angry guilty spark who lets loose laser blasts every second. Oh the humanity!


"Fiddly" objects

If you are badass enough, you might be able to unlock the katana twice. If you accomplish this, your avatar can unsheathe his katana and do some practice swings before slicing a cartoon grunt in half :P

Grav hammer, i can think of quite a few awesome animations to go with it.

Every other weapon.

A pet Grunt. Hilarity would ensue in various animations. (if anyone has any specific ideas here, post 'em and ill use them.)

Grenade, you would be bouncing it in our palm for a few seconds, before priming it and throwing it.


Please post your ideas! Thanks!

If somebody's opinion is being smashed and nobody's helping, I try and help. I use logic and extensive vocabulary (and sometimes self-destructive circular reasoning) to confuse my enemies into submission. Fear me, trolling, fapping creatures of the night. For I. Am your worst nightmare.

For the grunt(If your wearing the SPartan armor) he'll say the dialouge he says in Halo 3 on final mission(the talking grunt EE). Man I love that... :)

Yeah and the Grav Hammer Idea it is skepticism. We dont know if Brutes are going to be in or on Reach. But if you get the Road To Recon challenge complete for ODST then you unlock the Recon Armor. THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!!

the katana (or hayabusa) won't be part of the game at all...
