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

Ok, so i haven't checked this for a while, but i cant help but wonder

They announced there's no Armour in this pack, but tease us with a clearer screen shot of the helmet?(Which by my standing looks kinda like the guys from that "Kill-zone" game, i haven't played it but ive seen screenshots so feel free to argue) Thats a little harsh no?

They still could possibly send out an update when the map pack cones out and make he map pack(or the new achievements) have the unlock key. So technically there would be no new armor coming out with the map pack, only new armor unlocking codes:)

I'm a huge Bungie fan, so much so that I started a company!

B.net "succeses":

The biggest and only real "succes" was forming the largest Brute group on B.net, but like most groups after Bungie left Halo it died.

5 players.... means decoy!!! Notice how their all the same color!

I think that the huge grin that comes up on Frank O'Connor's face whenever someone asks him about new armor says it all.

  • 03.01.2011 5:11 AM PDT

The new helmet it showed is funny looking but I think it is real.

It must've been a result of a one night stand between EOD and GUNGNIR. Jk. Looks nice though. I wonder how I could work it into my outfit.

BUNGIE AND MICROSOFT FAILS HALO 2 VISTA.

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

Listen Shock, I respect you and the fact you've kept to your opinion for so long, but you're blind. A picture showcasing the new helmet on ign, the video where frank O'Connor hinted at new armor, the huge title update 343i is doing, proving that if not new armor, something big is coming, you have to at least admit it makes sense.

Edit: These people are business professionals and know how to appeal and hint to people to get them excited for something. It's called, marketing.
Frank O'Connor never hinted anything about the armor.

"Something big" isn't armor DLC.

These people also know how to avoid directly answering questions.

Developer build.

Why show a developer build? Couldn't that mislead the community and have a negative effect on the now-fragile/eggar fanbase?

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.

stunts like these can bite the team in the ass, look at what happened just because of bloom and armour lock (neither of which i have an issue with)

...I love the fact that you just treat what you expect it to be as fact...
No offence, because I know that everyone's entitled to their opinion, but yours in this case is a little stupid...let's go over it...
You're saying that this "New Armour" is from a "Developer Build" of the game...let's go over what we've been shown of this "Developer Build";

-2 Screenshots where it was the only customized character model whatsoever, and it just so happens it has Armour not seen before...

-A full, clear screenshot showing the "New Armour" to everyone perfectly, and it's pretty much the only thing in the shot that's remotely interesting...
*[Not as if they're trying to put focus on this "Developer Build" Armour that'll get everyone's hopes up for "New Armour"...because that's clearly a good marketing strategy...(!)]*

Now, they were just three screenshots, so if they were from a "Developer Build", it would have made a hell of a lot more sense to have just replaced these screenshots rather than publish them anyway and falsely advertise something that would clearly be interpreted as "New Armour"...

Now I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just saying it's a hell of a lot more likely I'm right...

It's hilarious to read that people over pages seems to be speculating that that isn't new helmet, well ladies & gentlemen may I ask then what that then is?

Btw nice speculation between with guys like Shock and others.

If this is the last remaining armor that can be unlocked in the game, I hope 343i make it hard to get otherwise everybody will be using it, it will be a clone army of [insert helmet name here]

We need to have this remain a very rare piece. maybe award it to somebody who has all achievements in all Halo games.

REALLY DUDE? That's what you are going with? *sigh*

Lost cause.

That doesn't even makes sense on so many levels. Perhaps if this was 2 years ago. But no way they show that helmet on two separate occasions. EVERYONE is default except him.

O'Connor pretty much said it. He was about to say something and tried to back track while speaking. If I were a detective his behavior would warrant investigation.

Come on dude. I guess O. J. Simpson was innocent too.

Has anyone brought up the idea of it being a new Waypoint achievement helmet, similar to the Military Police helmet for example?

I don't know how any of this dlc or new armor stuff works in reality or in theory, so don't take what I say as fact.

Also, if it has been said then my bad, but I didn't want to go sift through 185 posts to find out lol.

Deja Moo: The feeling you've heard this bull before

OMG! 343 SEX ME UP! This is AWESOME, I wonder how many new armor configs there are. Maybe the new Armor is unlockable by DFM achievements like in H3.

Love your friends, Die laughing.

This whole Frankie o'connor thing reminds me of bungie´s day, when red vs blue showcased hemorrage, saying that it would be a little bigger.
Now, we have Forge World.

Could we be getting more armor for the new map pack?


No.

Rush in where Angels fear to tread...

if you listen to the interview, he says "ah, not built into the... well, people should play it". So this means you won't get new armor just by downloading the map pack. All you people who want a freebie, forget it.

infact, i suspect you won't need the map pack to get the new armor (that would cause problems with non-DLC users playing with Defiant map pack users on non-DLC maps). instead, I believe the armor will be unlocked for purchase in the armory at about the same time through a patch to the game. Most likely this patch will be available the same day and required to play online, with or without the new map pack.
