(81 Votes)
Total Votes: 124

Hey, MJOLNIR here. I've been wondering since Halo 2 has come out, the Cheif has been gifted with new armour. I would like to know which one people prefer, which is more Chief? You can just vote or vote and tell us why you voted that way. I think all fans should get into this and tell us which armour they love!

Vote NOW!

I know not many have voted yet but I see the Halo 2 armour is winning just. Personally I prefer the armour on H2 but that's just my opinion as it was the original the first, the only. But others may see differently. Just back here at home the H1's arn't getting enough votes than the H2's and that's fine I just wanted to know.
But I'll keep sitting back and watching the votes roll in at my computer commenting along the way. If you can I'd like to know why you voted for your armour.
eg. Did your vote rely on the saying "out with the old in with the new"? Or because the old armour had a sheen you liked or the new armour is able to store AI's by touch insead of plugging them into your head?

Get the idea?

The technology (no fall damage,faster sheild recharge,ect) of the armor goes to Halo 2.
The look of the armor goes to Halo 1.

I like Halo 1 armor because if you lose a game, you'd have probably gotten a few kills because their health will slowly deteriorate until you can kill them. You wouldn't be so humiliated. In Halo 3, there should be Halo 1 armor, but no med kits, because then if someone has a power weapon, it'll take a few rambo-style rushes, but eventually that guy will no longer have a monopoly over the kills.

I must say I do prefer the Halo 1 armour but no I do not think they should bring it back in for H3. I think every game should have new armour.. Speaking of the H3 armour I think it should be totally different than the 1st 2. (As you know the 1st and 2nd look alike).

Good point. He might not get new armour because he's on that Forerunner ship. But maybe he burns it up under heavy fire... eh-heh? But I still don't think that will be possible, even if his suit gets burned up I don't think logically after all this war with the Covernant in H2 that the humans would have time to make a new and improved suit.

No... because if they had better armour than you had, don't you think they would have given it to the Chief already?

I do like the Halo 1 design, but the Mark VI looks a lot more sleek. Then again, from watching too much Red vs Blue, the Spartan in Mark VI looks hunched over...

I can tell the votes will be pilled onto the H2 side just like back home, lol. I think, sure the H2 armour looks good. But you can't beat the original and I hate that imprinted symbol on Master Cheifs visor.

Master Chief belongs in the MJOLNIR Battle Suit Mark V (Halo 1)! Come on, I'm sure we all agree that we have come to know and love the Chief as he appears in Halo 1? Sure, Halo II armour is better... recharges faster, fall resistant, fire-proof, stronger defences, etc... but if Bungie could put those perfect designs into the original MkV, it would be better than awesome! The MkVI looks, for lack of a better word, like crap. MC appears to be skinny, muscle-less, and has an egg-shaped head in the new armour... how stupid is that? We all know that MC is a massive, muscly man - not a shrimp! So, why did Bungie dress him up like one in Halo II? I don't know...

Sorry for rambling on, I just wanted to get my point across, anywhen, here's a summary:

Halo 1 Armour -> Looks awesome, but it's far too weak
Halo 2 Armour -> Looks nothing like our dear MC, but is the perfect suit for defence
Halo 3 Armour -> Needs to Look like the MkV, and perform like the MkVI

I think halo 1 armor looks better, but Halo 2 armor is stronger, but I voted for Halo 1 armor.

Both looked the same in terms of coolness....but the older version had a Health meter... Now MC has to guess what his health is, whats up with that?
