"Were it so easy."

Well guys, I sent a message to Otto yesterday about this helmet, and here's what he had to say today:

Certain affinity worked on those maps, we didn't. If they were somehow able to figure out how to hook in and add new armor, (which is highly unlikely) it would only work in the new maps.

I don't recognize that helmet either.

I vote 3 - It's a dev build.

OP should edit and add a 3 option vote.


I also think it's a dev build.

I used to mess arround with a ton of models I made for Oblivion and include them in screenshots of my mods. I liked stirring up the community with stuff they could see but not have, oh how that hurts some humans.

Again, unless Evil Otto worked in the armory department, and what he said earlier was false (from what I read), I wouldn't take it too seriously. (Earlier I read that he said something like "Not everybody at Bungie knows what is happening with certain parts of the game.")

Wouldn't be a big reveal if he said "Yeah there is new armor waiting for unlock." would it?

That said, we'll have to wait and see. I do remember Bungie saying certain community events/achievements may reward new armors(earlier on before release).

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.

and why would they say it if the only reward is the removal of the rank cap?

I don't remember them saying the rank cap removal was the only reward/community achievement.

What really interested me is that he said he dosent recognize it.....That means this helmet is unknown to even bungie....So we cant look to them for answers...We have to look to 343....


I re-post with the statement above... Posted by KJ1397:What really interested me is that he said he dosent recognize it.....That means this helmet is unknown to even bungie....So we cant look to them for answers...We have to look to 343....

but just a couple messages do not provide enough proof for us to trust Otto yet

My eyes grow tired of trying to focus...

What is the big mystery here? Are you people that daft? The helmet is CLEARLY the EOD with elements of Gungnir fused with it. Why? I have no idea. It could have been 343 messing around with graphics (trying combinations for the heck of it) and they ended up using some of the video for the mentioned helmet. This is NOT a new helmet. The odd combination will NOT be included with the map pack. You will NEVER get to wear this hybrid. Please stop feeding this thread.

I'm guessing Evil Otto does not know, I asked him once a question about the Halo Reach BOB's and he replied that he did not know of ANY BOB's on Reach

Ah, completely mistook what you meant. Luckily I replied in the manner that agreed with you (which I do).
