I don't know how realistic this is, but in the Halo 2 FAQ they mention that MC will get a new suit of armor...and I'm assuming that this new suit will do something special to set it apart from the normal suit. It would be sweet if it turned out to be a jetpack, that would add a whole new take on the combat. In the FAQ they also mention the Chief getting some new "tools." Another possible jetpack situation.

What are your ideas on this new suit or these tools? What if it was an underwater suit? What kinds of tools could Chief use to combat aliens? What do you guys think/hope will happen?

yea the would be pretty cool and all...but like new tools is like alot of new badass weapons and the new suit is every ones seen. but that all would be awesome.

Jetpack would totally ruin the balance of halo's gameplay....jetpack is a big nono....hopefully the new tools are new arsenal of weapons nad vehicles.

You mean a thruster pack? Because im more than sure that the m.c. will have this on the moon base level with the zero-G conditions and all.......

Now that you mention it...I've got no idea!
I always assumed they just meant that MC will be stronger and have new moves or can carry 3 weapons or stuff like that. Or maybe they mean that he will have an improved HUD?
I don't really care, I'm already happy that the look of the armor has improved so much.

I wouldn't like it to be a jetpack, because the game wouldn't be Halo anymore. If I want to fly or hover, I'll just grab a banshee or ghost (or something new?).
But what about binoculars? I think it would be cool to get tactical, and for in the large MP maps.

Edit: Some sort of built-in binoculars that is, it would be a bit dull to see MC staring through binoculars IMO.

Yeah that's exactly what I meant...I am visioning something very similar to Dash Rendar's Jetpack in Shadows of the Empire on the N64. The levels that you get to use it are so sweet.

A jetpack would be col in multiplayer on the low gravity missions, it should come with a song too.

" Jetpack Master Chief! He always saves the day!"

Yeah, Bungie confirmed there wasn't a jetpack when they said Halo 2 would be cool.


You stole that! I don't remember from where, but I've heard that before

Or maybe it was you who started that...

If you are for a jetpack, go RENT Tribes: Arial Assault. It is absolutely horrible. Period.

jet pack....no...

maybe a double jump would be acceptable.
