alot of people seem to hate on recon because of how it is pictured. exaple: i join a team swat game and this guy starts flaming me for having recon. i didnt even have my mic on and he was saying "recon is -blam!- get a life you sad nub." so i decided to be the bigger person and ignore the guy (keep in mind he was on my team) so finally the game starts and he betrays me as soon as we spawn. It was kinda funny how he went out of his way just to kill me instead of the other team...i know not everyone is like that torwards recon but man can some people be real jerks about pixels (personally i think an armor is and armor the only reason i got it was to compete with my friend and because i think it looks cool >:D). I not only get mean comments but sometimes good ones "like nice recon man!" but what i really like is when no one cares if i do. so i just comment on what you think about recon! thanks.

somewhere in the heavens...they are waiting. I love the Marathon Trilogy.

I don't care for Recon or the flaming helmets or any of that special kind of stuff. I don't think they look very good anyways.

You only get the flaming helmet with the Legendary Edition. You get Recon when you pre-order any version of Reach.

Recon Armor is Sexy.

Halo Reach - Make a prequel to the fight.
Halo CE - Begin the fight.
Halo 2 - Continue the fight.
Halo 3 - Finish the fight.
Halo 4 - Start a new fight.

You can get the Recon helmet for pre-ordering it, and the chestplate that allows your head to be on fire. If you put them together, you get flaming recon.

Edit: I forgot, the chestplate is avaliable by ordering the Legendary Edition.

"It is not a goal, but a process. The process of creating the perfect world."

I happen to actually like how it looks, the helmet at least. I don't care much for the rest of the armor.

I can understand where some people find it ugly, but for some reason it appeals to me. It isn't my favorite helmet though.

I dont know about everyone else, but it seems to me that the reasons to hate it are:

1) there are alot of douches that have and say: "if you dont have recon, then you suck." I havent heard anyone say this, therefore it probably is a bad reason;

2) There are alot of people who are saying: "The only people who have/want recon are noobs or 12 year olds" I disagree with this, as I want recon but am neither of these.

3) there are too many threads asking Bungie for recon, or people asking others for help for the Vidmasters.

I cant think of anymore reasons, but I think they prove my point.

I don't really care for armor at all. It's just looks (Who cares?)
