Subject: New helmet spotted in Defiant Map pack

I don't believe it, the closeups are quite pixelated- could of easily been photoshopped.

That said- if there is a even a grain of honesty to these photo's. It means there will definitely be a Title Update on the way to accomodate the armour. However, even then it may still require the Defiant map pack in order to unlock the pieces for purchase... Who knows?

Here is a full armory pic, and that helmet and chest piece are not on it.

Nothing even close to the helmet.

Do you have a link to the close up shots on waypoint? I'm looking through the gallery now to try and spot them.

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

For those of you who have just arrived, a brief summery of the last 83 pages:

* Discussion that its not actually possible to include new Armour - the code for Armour is set in the maps and unavailable as an outside resource

* Confirmation that even the Bungie members who saw this as impossible are stumped and not in the know of what it is or how
Evil Otto

What is this?

I don't know. If Certain Affinity somehow figured out a way to add new armor I would be very surprised, and I don't see how it could be used on any maps but their own.

God No

Bungie letting us in on there secrets? Why would they do that when we can sit here, speculate, continue using there site and eventually spend 800MSP on their product? :P

Is this fueling the speculation of it being a dev build?

See that's what i'm expecting, either that or Otto's been shoved in a corner somewhere while the rest of bungie have a costume party

I'm really hoping to be wrong, and so are half of bungie and all of us but still, the pessimist inside me is agreeing strongly with the logical side of me

I thought i drowned him out years ago ¬_¬

i sent a Very formal email to Certain Affinity, though thats as likely to return a reply as my Prayers :P

I dont know any other bungie members, except the likes of Arcahnos and Stosh but like hell would they reply :P

wb quincey and yeah bungie knows nothing like i said on page 3 lol if we want answers we have to go to 343.


Yea I agreed with you mate, just a thought though, if it was a dev build then surly they would say that? seems like they are trying to keep us guessing to me :P dam I should not have gone to sleep and stayed haha

  • 02.17.2011 6:07 AM PDT

wow 83 pages this is crazy. i for one believe that there is a new helmet being added and if there is what will all the no-believers say.

  • 02.17.2011 6:07 AM PDT
  • gamertag: [none]
  • user homepage:

looks like a scout visor is in there with the top part of the operator helmet and a mix of that helmet with the visor full covered.

  • 02.17.2011 6:08 AM PDT

yea, in that thread saying this one was a lie... I said there is no point in asking bungie/mailing them cuz even if they did know anything they would not tell us, and def not thell that skippy kid :P just cuz you get a few messages from otto does not mean you are in the loop lmao well the fact that we have not heard anything, speaks volumes to me

I would imagine this helmet being available for lower ranks, as the rest of the spartan's choices in armor is low-rank-necessary. I may be wrong, but most of the armor he/shes wearing is low rank armor. Default Kneeguards, Default Utility, JFO shoulders.

As for the helmet, I noticed a resemblance for 3 helmets:

EOD
JFO
Security


EOD stood out the most to me, but the other two I saw at the top of the helmet. As for the scope, we'll call it, Looks like it would belong on a scout/Sniper/Recon Helmet, like many have said.

also when I came on I noticed on the main page this topic 'Rumor and Speculation' and my heart stopped haha, shame it is just about rumours of job losses :(

  • 02.17.2011 6:15 AM PDT

I think it's only a new EOD attachment...
