Been a Bungie fan since the days of Myth TFL.

Agreed. It's hope vs republicans, black vs blue, sarge vs grif. A social commentary for the ages. The battle lines are drawn and armies gather. You can choose to sit out or you can choose to pick a side. Many will perish. The fields of Elysium only welcome the virtuous dead....

Hey, I haven't seen this thread's size until today, but it gives me a bad feeling we're gonna get disappoint.

Note that niether Urk, nor Stosh have posted in this thread. Normally, something like this would be the kindof thing Bungie would want to either cover up or answer and explain.

So why haven't they? Either they're amused, or don't want to be hated for disappointing us like that. If this is the case, it'll probably be explained as a no in weekly update.

Or, a third option, Bungie could be as baffled and in the dark as us.

But the most likely option is that this is a cancelled armor that 343i found in the coding and are using internally as an employee-only armor, similar to Recon. The only difference being that Recon was public, with this guy a secret. Then, 343i will have the embarrassing task of explaining to the community that we can't haz secret armorz.

Despite that, I really hope otherwise. I would love new armor alot. I'm just warning you guys, this is Microsoft you are dealing with, SO DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP.


If this were all true, then I don't think that 343 would of had someone even PLAYING with it in the trailer and the pics on waypoint, they would have known that eventually someone would find it and have to explain and apologize to the WHOLE COMMUNITY, no, this is happening.

I'm grabbing my AR, Sword, and grenades and joining the new armor is possible side. What side are you on?

guys look at the full pics and look at the chest. At first glance it is just Collar Breacher, but, Collar Breacher only covers the front chest, see for yourself. See how the black bar raps around his entire upper chest/ near the neck in the full pic.

HOW MANY NEW ARMORS ARE THERE

They have not replied because A. there plan is working and everyone is getting hyped up
B.they have a time table to keep to
C.its bungie and they want to keep us guessing :)

sorry but it is blates going to happen, they have planned it from the start. It all makes sense mate and its all here in this thread
also as someone pointed out earlier all the other spartans are in default armor. Its just to odd not to be true

I'm gonna love it when the new armor comes out and the people who say it's impossible to add armor who are too stubborn to admit they're wrong are put into checkmate.

I fight for Reach! I fight for the hope that humanity has a bright future ahead of it. That maybe, just maybe, New Armor is on the horizon. And if it's not, I'll go join some other symbolic cause; whatever keeps me playing this game. :-)

Just like that new armor for the Noble map pack, right?

I never said that and we didn't have proof, now we do.

the people who made those posts simply mistook already released armour for new armour anyway

it's definitive that this is new armour, the only thing we need to know now is will it be available to us

My God read the rest of the thread, we already compared all of the current armor of helmets and chestpieces, along with all of their attachments and none of them matched.

Well, I guess that all we can do is wait no can we? Just get ready to be flamed when you're proven wrong.

i'm so confused right now, i've been supporting this helmet since the thread started, i posted how it could have been implemented without discovery, i'm even the one who suggested it be given a fan name

Actually that helmet in the Noble Map pack picture of Operator is different, that isn't an attachment we currently have. I hope you guys are right and they are releasing new armor (crosses fingers for Mark IV chest) but I can't get my hopes up.

What new Noble armor? The only thing new is helmet attachments and that would be one complicated attachment. Can we get a noble to clear this up for us please?

people were claiming there was new armour being released in the noble map pack, but they just mistook retail armour for "new" armour

I say we just call it FAFNIR.

thats what we are calling it...
it fits, too, the greed we have gained now that we have seen this helmet
