People are getting either excited or frustrated by this...

How funny would it be if they said "There is new armour available in this new map pack... dosnt mean were gonna give it to you!"

Followed by childish raspberry blowing and "neh neh neh's"


But seriously, its been pretty researched that this isnt possible... but it is...

*scratches head*

Theres only one thing to do to find out!

*waits*


Indeed. They did say before that they were going to unlock armors for certain community events.

Makes sense for those armor files to be well hidden (or mis-named) until said event happens.


Now the question is 'how much' have they hid? 1, a few, a bunch?

Probably, as there is also an unavailable Operator Helmet variant. Bungie hasn't unlocked all of Reach's armor from the looks of it.


The operator variant (Noble Map Pack Pic) looks to be just an attachment that already appears in game on Carters helmet, this new helmet has not been seen in Halo Reach at all as of yet.

all i know is that there were Alot of concept helmets that didnt make the cut, that alot of people basically thought "Wow, that was Awesome!" :P

OMG a Pwny!

All I have to say is that new armor is more than likely possible. I'd think Bungie would learn after the demand in Halo 3. Also, everyone said Reach wasn't coded in a way that would allow campaign/firefight maps. Wrong much? Clearly anyone who runs around saying "it's not programmed that way" is not to be believed, or even acknowledged.

just had to repost this one here :P just said it on another thread:

nteresting Thought!

The shots of this armour were in the press release screenshots, not the trailer

Now that i have your attention, these shots are designed to keep secrets from being seen, this armour? was meant to be noticed

so that people would argue about it, get intreiged, confused and excited

its called viral marketing, and we're infected :O

*Evades*

This... as clever as these people are they're just disc hackers with rudimentary understanding of what they're looking at.
Game programmers will have ways to hide a few things.

When the game is over, the king and pawn go into the same box

Two questions:

1. Does anyone have a link to the images to the armor that isn't on photobucket? My company block many of the photo hosting sites.

2. IF this armor does exist on disk, wouldn't it have been found by now? I mean, we all saw all the armor variants before the game even came out thanks to the modders and hackers.

Keep in mind I almost never quit, I just hate the fact there are over 6 different bans in the game, kind of leads me to think Bungie just enjoy punishing there fanbase.

Shock, would you like to do the honors? :3

Thanks!

Wow, I guess I was expecting a little more definitive.

Sorry, just trying to come up the curve on this, and didn't want to go through all 12 pages.

its the exact same picture than those in the first post (the enlarged ones)

Even though Bungie said armours are coded into the maps, surely if this helmet is new the DLC could have the Data required to code the helmet into all maps, but of course only 1 helmet, another 20 armour pieces in 1 map pack could probably push the download up to like 1.0GB or more :L

  • 02.15.2011 10:26 AM PDT

Someone said this already, I'm just repeating for emphasis.

If you look at his collar, it's nothing like in the armory right now either. So that says there's most likely new armor. I doubt it's a glitch or some marketing conspiracy.

i know a guy who got flaming without getting legendary because he hacked, so surely if this was already on the disc people like this guy i know (wont mention him for obvious reasons), would of found the permutations.


Hacker never found a drivable pelican.
This sole fact deems hackers mute.


To my knowledge, they did. They found the IWHBYD skull in Halo 3, and they found the hidden player models in the Reach Beta.

"Were it so easy."

What do you think Bungie's going to do to respond to this thread?

1 - Reply and say something like "Good eye." on the thread.

2 - Laugh at the thread and all the people who replied to it.

3 - Nothing
