Does anyone else think we should be able to choose what armor we wear? Instead of it being like Halo 3 armor we could maybe choose which character we are(if that actually happens) and then choose what armor we could wear, so each character would have different armor. For example the character holding the sniper could have armor that would suit his abilities. Anyone else agree?

Great minds discuss ideas

Average minds discuss events

Small minds discuss people

I do think that the different character should have different armour. However, this IS a first-person shooter, so unless you want to get good screenshots, it won't matter

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

No, this just makes a complicated system.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

It looks like mild customization will be applied to the characters in the game so the player can tell them apart. This goes against Canon a little, but it will suit gameplay the best. Anyway, I don't think Characters will have voices in MP like they do in Firefight.

So I am pretty sure it will just be Armor Permutations like Halo 3, only more diverse, with more choices than before.

However, a "Firefight Character" or "Coop Character" Would be selectable, so you play as your custom armor, and his voice is the character of your choice.

one of my crazy ideas how about a hole new rank system

u start as a marine ur weak but respawn quick and u dont get sheilds or visor

when u get to sgt u get the to choose if u get to join the ODST if so u get visor and they're weapons if u didn't change u get really good perks in the game

when u get to major u get to join the spartens

u should get to create ur on face and use different armor all through the game.

Life is contradictory and ambiguous but it also isn't.

You just described the permutation system from halo. Exactly.
