Is this thread still going on? Wasn't it already confirmed that there won't be new armor coming with Defiant map pack. If it was in the game coding hackers would have found it already.
coding hackers would have found it already, if it were already on the CD. This armor not being in the CD is why we say its a new helmet.

This whole thing just seems too weird. After I read the updated OP I don't know what to believe anymore. I just know that it can't be on the disk, it can't be downloaded via Xbox Live. Where did the big picture "for non-believers even come from? It's not from any of the trailers. Hopefully we will find out on 15th.

There are at least 4 pics in the OP that are straight from the trailer.

I just today happen to get a code from a friend to download the new map pack and have look thought the armory and there are no new helmets or anything.

Is this true? Can you confirm that? Can you post a video from armory to convince retards that there is no any new armor?


First off reported for calling us retards, Second what are in those pics in the OP? third, bungie doesn't know much about new stuuff being added in reach, 4th they said no new armor with the map pack so we obviously know it won't be on thee 15th. and finally Franky and others at 343i have been leaning towards the future holding dlc with new features like maybe armor?

Bungie said there wasn't going to be new firefight maps...yet look one of the maps is a firefight one. Get your facts straight.

About me:
I'm 20. I use to play Halo alot but never do really anymore. I'm a offline player since I have dial up. I do play online on rare events when I don't have to go to work, school, etc.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't it Bungie that said there would be no new firefight maps.....

Guess what.... We are getting one......

I don't think anyone is under the delusion that the map pack contains new armour. Our suspicions is that the armour will be delivered in some other way or possibly be available to everyone, not just the map pack purchasers.

After all, when asked if new armour comes with the map pack Frankie said "well ... ur... um ... no built into the ... well people should just play it, put it that way".

So, your video only proves what molst of us already suspect, that the armour is not part of the map pack.


fixed the link

Yes. I am a Battle Rifle machine. The DMR is a poor replacement.

I'm thinking a title update would be the only way new armor could be added. DLC would be reasonable except for the fact that only the players that payed for the map pack would get the new armor, and by all logical means you couldn't play online with other people who don't have it; they don't have the armor files and therefore their XBox can not view/process/etc. the new armor. But, that's just my view on it. What I am sure of is that the pictures are not fake, photoshopped, or anything otherwise that would prove it not existing anywhere. This is obvious because these pictures were taken from Halo Waypoint videos. And, therefore, there are only two possibilities of where this helmet/armor came from.

1) Certain Affinity has their own network and special type of the game that allows them to do things that you can not with a normal version of Halo: Reach.

2) These will be coming to the public sometime soon in the future. Although it has been confirmed there is no new armor coming via the Defiant Map Pack, this would be done through what would most likely be a title update.

But, then again, this is just my opinion. Until the new Armory items are either released or confirmed by either Bungie, 343 Industries or Certain Affinity, there is no official or conclusive evidence supporting their existence. Whether real or not, I will surely hope there will be new armor.

Right at the end Frank stumbles over his words as he is asked about new armour - If it was a srtaight up "no new armour" im sure he wouldnt have a problem in getting his sooting tones out.

Something else I noticed: On the enlarged 1st image, the "new" helmet's color is darker than the rest of the red Spartan.

OT: I think that it is impossible to add new armor to Reach, but it is possible to UNLOCK armor to use. So it is possible to release armor along with the Map Pack by Unlocking the armor.


sounds like backpedaling

I think the armor will come with the title update and will be unlocked by VidMaster achievements.

Like the Recon armor was.

I have the new map Pack & I can sadly confirm that no new armour included in it..the 3 achievements are though

Turn off your mind, relax, and float down stream.

This is very interesting. I hoped Bungie wouldn't stop at just the armor we already know. That'd be silly as you say to not incorporate. However what if it's true? That this is simply some armor that we'll get with probably a couple map pack achievements or challenges. Then hurray a new helmet and chest piece, but would they stop there? I bet only in time we will see what the fate of Halo: Reach truly is.

They already told us it isn't coming WITH the map pack, my guess for the reason is because even if they updated it so everyone who doesn't have the map pack can still see the armor is so that people who get Defiant early like the poster up above can't spoil the surprise for the rest of us. That and they might want to give everyone a chance at new armor, not just the people who can buy the map pack.
