Subject: New helmet spotted in Defiant Map pack

does anyone remember the hidden spartan on The Pillar of Autumn? maybe they store the code for unlocked armor and maybe there is more hidden spartans on other levels that do the same. also all the dead spartans on LoneWolf can maybe hold part of the code. just my guess

Maybe Bungie said they won't, but the Defiant MP isn't by Bungie. Maybe 343 and their guys will release stuff Bungie won't.

So stop saying all this -blam!- about what will and won't happen. God, just let it happen and be happy with it.

Good find. I knew those dumbarses saying "its IMPOSSIBLE, the coding says so!" were full of -blam!- and had to pull their head out of their arses. Would like to see them fess up and admit they said this.

Douches.

And the fan base will continue to decrease because of this. Bungie needs to wake up and smell the coffee. The difference is not only reputation, but millions in revenue of the DLC. The programming & design implications of say a dozen new armor items are fractional in comparision to that of the revenue they can generate for what is, a beginners field in game devlopment.

maybe a new attachment for a helmet

This isn't Bungie's baby anymore. They have nothing to do with the map pack. This is 343 and Certain Affinity's work and they have not said a word about not releasing new armor.

In the weekly update, they said they didn't even make the Maps in the pack. So, whatever they confirmed have little relevance to the map pack itself.

Bungie said they couldn't but maybe they can.

Armour can not be downloaded without downloading the whole game again.

If there is any "new" armour, it's already on the disc. Why is that so hard to understand?

No need to be such an ass about it either.

Seriously Oak, Ive been doing this -blam!- for 16 years, gimmie my Friggen starter Pokemon and dont call me till im the champion! ¬_¬

probobly already mentioned - but it was said the armour is coded into the maps, so they couldnt add new armour

though this... kinda turns it on its head...

Im guessing maybe its only available in these and future map packs?

Or it's a key file to unlock it like the Pre-Order Recon, the Flaming AE and the Elite Officer Armour.

Death to rank junkies.

Posted by: Dutch_Miles
LOL This goes for everyone who said there wouldnt be any more armor!


True.

I remember reading a post made by a Bungie employee stating that they could add armor.

My Youtube - Halo 2 Online Co-op
BUNGIE AND MICROSOFT FAILS HALO 2 VISTA.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

It has to be locked content, or developers having their own fun on developer-built versions.

DLC armors has always been impossible ever since Bungie used the tag system inside the map files.
Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3, ODST and Reach.

343 Industries have to use the same format for Halo Reach, they cannot change it.

Didn't we have the same idiots claiming new armor on Tempest? LOL.

Well, we'll all see, I guess... We already know that its a new piece of armour. I don't think how its getting into the game is any real cause for debate. But like I said, we'll all see

Thats just it, people have exhausted the code extensivly looking for things like this, Armour perms was one of the first (Its why sites like halopedia got the perm's and ranks soo quickly)

If it was, hackers would know about it and either use it, tell us or leak it

this is... something else :/


On another note, it looks kinda like the original alpha version of GUNGNIR (Juns helmet in the original concept art)

edit Oh, missed this

I PM'd Evil Otto about this a while back, apparently its a "Technical aspect" so im guessing its what the game uses to build spartans off.

Theres probobly hundreds of these on every map, just someone thought at bungie "You know whatll be cool? lets stick one on the POA"

If you can break the map in little concaves, like buildings that arnt accessable, or cupboards and such, im sure they'll be more

The thing is, you can't unlock the armour unless you have the files for it, modders can't unlock Flaming or Recon without a code (at least that's what I think anyway).

Honestly, they can't add armour. If anyone here has played Halo Custom Edition on the PC you'd know this. If you wanted to change a map, you'd have to download it and then change what you want, then put it back into the game. It's been like this in every Halo game (Except Halo Wars).

If it's new armour, it has to already be on the disc, or only available on that map (which would be stupid).

That's what Shock and loads of other people have been talking about, downloading brand new armour, not unlocking content already on the disc.

I've been known on here to defend Reach a lot but I in no way think Reach is perfect. If you say "Reach is horrible, halo is ruined" I'll give you the same extremest attitude right back down your throat. Say "Reach could be better if..." I'll have a nice discussion with you.

It's possible but, economically not feasible. It would require you to have your game on your hard drive and for you to hold a considerable amount of space on your hard drive. Reason being the new tag would have to be implemented into every map, cut scene, etc.

Evil otto even said it himself, it would not happen.

If this helmet is indeed a new one there is but, two explanations. 1 being it was already in the coding but, very well hidden. 2 being it only will be available to see with in that map pack.

Waf-fle n. A Reputation; Your Social Status; Superiority; Advantage; Awesome Points; or a light, crisp, breakfast cake.

It looks like a purchasable add-on for the Scout helmet variation.

Thats what im thinking, im just sceptical about it already being on there (maybe just denial, there not expecting us to pay for data we already own... are they? >:()

My main thoughts are itd be exclusive to these maps.. which is... pretty aweful...

If it's map exclusive, we won't be able to select it.
Which is really, really stupid.
