Well, in theory, there still is a chance. Take for instance the game Batman: Arkham Asylum. There was an Easter egg that went unnoticed by anyone until a year later when the makers of the game revealed it's location. I personally don't believe in the GRD but I'm just making a suggestion that maybe there are things that haven't been found yet.


But in practise, there isn't.

I went through the game files myself. Not a single scrip of GRD helmet evidence. HEX data, bitmap files, models, everything.

Nothing. If you lot want your precious Frankenstein helmet, you're going to have to download the data in an Update.

Anyone mention that maybe it will be released through waypoint?

Your lack of faith is disturbing.

But seriously, you're being a prick. There are various workarounds to implement armor into the game without having to download all the maps again. Though we don't know how big the title update file will be, we know they eliminated bloom, altered armor lock, stealth camo, implemented a new pistol, and changed shield bleed through. These are all aspects that were hard coded into the game's engine and likely required a lot of work to mold to their liking.

That being said, if they really wanted to, they could changed the game coding to read the spartan models in real time from a group of images instead of having to read them straight off the map itself. The hardest part would be programming which code would show up as which visual armor piece on the spartan model. You completely ignored the Spartan doll with the BoB helmet that shows up on Beaver Creek in CEA without even making an observation of it, simply shoving off the people who are enthralled by the mystery and treating them as if they're some lesser life form. I'm somewhat ashamed of you, someone who's been quite active in the community for a while commenting on a thread about how fruitless someone's endeavors are, yet you yourself are wasting that same time they may be wasting telling them how insignificant or feeble minded they are for taking evidence and exploring the possibilities of a truth(something called science, that without, we wouldn't have much of the technology we have today to play this wonderful game or post on this forum).

So excuse me for looking at these released official images from an enthusiastic point of view. If nothing else, people are gaining credits and learning more about the game as they search. Meanwhile, you have nothing positive to contribute other than "you're wrong" and "it won't happen." Do you know how much has happened lately that wasn't suppose to be able to happen? There were a few weeks the entire community had the opportunity to permanently give themselves blue flames, the "extremely rare" star nameplate, earn actual steaks from Bungie, so on and so forth. No one is saying that it definitely will happen one way or the other, but the evidence that it 'will' happen is much more plentiful(and exciting)than the evidence 'against' it happening.

Here's the part you want.

"Also on the list that didn't make it, was further customization in the armory.




A statement, might I add, made by 343i themselves.


If armor doesn't get released with the TU, chances of seeing it later are getting slimmer and slimmer since it would require a 2nd update.

Slimmer doesn't mean non existent. It also doesn't mean they aren't just telling us that so they can surprise us when it actually does happen.

Edit: Not to mention that video is almost a complete contradiction to This video even though they happened only a few hours apart.

Here's what people should do instead of posting the same things over and over again.


Wait for the TU come out *late september if i recall correctly* and for CE:A to come out.


'Till then, people can say anything.

  • 09.03.2011 9:52 AM PDT

There will be much much much much much more armor in Reach.. Your fking half retarded to think there wont be. Thx.

  • 09.03.2011 10:10 AM PDT

Hey, now!

This is officially either the greatest or worst thing to ever happen to Star Wars. I'm going with the former.

I'm just going to point out one thing.

In the Halo Fest panel when they are talking about the armory, they mention something along the lines of no further armory items(or something to that effect) included with the title update.

This doesn't mean, however, that the mystery helmet isn't already in the game files, waiting for the unlock(I'm simplifying this, obviously), or that perhaps we'll see it in the future.



As stated many, many times before.
If that helmet was in the game files, it would of been found.

I was just using that as an example. I realize people have looked through the game, but again, my point stands. We may see it in the future, we may not. It's not really a big deal.

Let them say what they want man. Let the disappointment come from experience, meanwhile you're time correcting or battling their statements is no better spent than their time searching and brainstorming.

Whether they are or aren't the concept is still the same. things can be hidden and not found for large amounts of time after release. Batman was a very popular video game and you can't tell me that during the time it was popular that someone did not attempt to hack or mod this game and find this EE?


Apples and oranges are both fruits, yet different.

Halo and Batman are both video games, yet different.



Yes things can be hidden in video games *some had hidden -blam!- hidden for like 10+years*, but the thing is that with this "defiant helmet" it has to have a mesh file somewhere in the data.

No file = No helmet.
There's a possibility that a file exists. There is a slightly larger than normal file attached to the "Unearthed" map. AS I stated before I don't personally believe in the GRD but it does appear there is something that is hidden out of sight. It may be a cameo just like the POA Master chief or It could be something totally different, Either way there's still something there.

Peace means having a bigger stick than the other guy.

Wait..... The rings on Countdown, maybe theyre like the rings on H3, where you had to jump through certain ones. Somedody try the IWBYD code, and try rings 4. 7, and 3.

Ok so everyone ignoring what i said about 4 pages ago....and the whole let's just wait thing so you know what... I am going to say I -blam!-ing told you so when it just so happens that its another vidmaster brainpan which enables the unlocking of it though waypoint or in game after being added in the title update

  • 09.06.2011 9:19 PM PDT

Or added in the update and unlocked through waypoint after getting a certain achievement in ce anniversary ( probably a marathon for ether getting all skulls, doing all glitches from the original or beating the game on mythic / legendary type of thing
