343 dosent do good jobs on armor...

The Halo 4 MJLONIR and the Halo CE remake MJLONIR are disgustingly ugly compared to their counterparts.

The books have always said that they look more machine than human, even going as far to have some people think they are just robots. I don't think the harmony between man and machine thing works out in the Halo universe (as impossible as that sounds).

I like the armor! It looks reptilian, or in other words, organic, a harmonization between living (John) and artificial (armor, skin).

Hmmm well there's always room for improvement I guess.

Yup. 343 always had it right. The Package, Halo Wars...

I'm starting to think that only Bungie can properly model the chief. Something I miss from them. And I'm definitely gonna miss hearing marty's music in halo.

The Halo Legends music was pretty good and they can always use the regular Halo score. Where Marty really shines is in his slow dramatic moments. That's where I'll miss him the most.

Are you friggin kidding me, Bungie always made the ugliest MC armor. They always annoyed me with Chief's hugearse codpiece and tiny little chest plate.

And I thought my sister and I were the only ones to notice.

...Hehe, ohh, the bulge. My God. What is up with that? 343 Industries wanted to show off his package?
I liked it when that bulge was covered...and smaller.

No, just no.

I completly agree with the armor aspect. 343 has recently done some pretty ugly designs of MJLONIR. Bungie´s was much better than Halo Wars or the new ones showed in the Halo Aniversary trailer and the Halo 4 trailer.

Now music wise, I would wait and see, 343 already showed us they can quite well do Halo music, they proved this to us in Halo Wars. Stephen Rippy did an amazing job, and I can bet, nobody thought the music would play so well.

That's a bit too direct.
The way they handled the armour change not a very great idea. I mean how did he suddenly get jet packs and a new spanking suit design when he was in a cryo-pod?

But regardless of that, I'm not a big fan of the new design either. I liked the H2 design the best. But it may grow on me...


It was intended to be a smartass remark.

You guys really shouldn't be criticizing a CGI trailer so harshly, what until we see an actual trailer or the first cutscene before raging.

Logic>emotion

Now is the time to do it. Why do it after everything is set in stone.

I'm going to make up a sub-story in my head so that it makes sense and nothing disrupts my hype for the game:


End of Halo 3
Chief says to cortana "wake me when you need me" as he gets into the cryo chamber
At some point inbetween
Cortana finds a new suit (with jetpack) that had been created for chief and was on the frigate in halo 3 waiting for him to finish the fight. So she wakes chief because she needs him to try it on, and make sure he has the best gear for whenever she needs him again. Cheif goes back into Cryo.
Halo 4
Oh my! We are heading towards a giant blue hole, Cortana wakes the chief.


Problem Solved

I think it looks cool, it just isn't what he was wearing when he got in. That's what bugs me. The Mk VI armor is the image everyone gets when they think of MC. Even though I prefer the Mk V, the Mk six is much more iconic. I think they should stick to it.

This this this. It's not that it looks different that makes me mad, it's that it looks different when it shouldn't look different that makes me mad. The iconic concept is also true about the Mk VI armor. In terms of the remake armor, I think it should have been bulkier to begin with, but it seems to have lost its definition, or its authority. It reminds me of the pre-Halo armor.

A: No atmosphere in the ship, how would he swap suits?
B: Why the hell would the Forward Unto Dawn have a better MJONLIR suit sitting in storage, instead of them just giving it to chief before he went to the ark?

How can Chief change his suit in a vacuum?

Darn it!

I think it looks like a poor persons impression of Mjolnir, over designed and not correctly proportioned. I'm not sure what they achieve by messing with a classic look, maybe Nintendo will give Mario a goaty?

My name is Michael J. Caboose, and I HATE BABIES!!!

I like it except for lack of explanation for new suit/ lack of cod piece... The second one the worse.

true,but i think the classic mk 6 shows chief character better and it symbolizes him.

but the new armour looks good enough,besides its all about the game,not the look.
