Um, just to point out, the armor in Halo Legends prototype was not MJOLNIR Mark III. It was a completely different armor/weapon system platform.


It was not mentioned what suit it was in the anime. But please check the journal of Dr. Halsey from Halo Reach Limited Edition.
It contains the concept design of the Mark III and looks quite similar to that from Halo Legends. Also at Halo Waypoint, they had released a video about MJOLNIR and they included that suit from Halo Legends.

They are powered differently, and the MJOLNIR Mark 3 was impractical on the battlefield.

I'm guessing you guys are talking about the one in Babysitter? I think it was strongly implied to be Mark IV because it somewhat looked like a "fat" version of the Mark IV in Halo Wars.

He is talking about the suit in "The Prototype".

Voiciferus' answer is a big bullshot way of saying "artistic lisence".

The halo CE mk V armor only looks like that because it has 10 year old graphics.

The Halo Reach MK V should be the one and only definitive mk v.

At any rate, 343 certainly hasn't gained any of my respect as a die hard halo fan yet.

I think the marines/troopers and AR are just place-holders.

Also, don't you think the visor looks awful?


God, I hope those are placeholders.
I like my Marines lean, mean, and Mother F--king green!

Can't please everyone... Happens with every release.

About MC's helmet, Frankie said that it looked awful in the trailer because they were working on a bug, but couldn't fix it in time so they showed the bugged and ugly one. The final product will probably looks like the box-art.

"Apparently people don't like the truth, but I do like it; I like it because it upsets a lot of people. If you show them enough times that their arguments are bull-blam!-, then maybe just once, one of them will say, 'Oh! Wait a minute I was wrong.' I live for that happening. Rare, I assure you."-Lemmy of Motorhead

i belive shhave funzes suppos

Yes, I'm the guy who had the Flood admit to being furries.

its ironic considering master chiefs visor proportion was also too big before Halo 1 came out, prompting it to become smaller in the final release. Just as with Anniversary, lol.

I started up the heated debate on whether the SPARTAN-II in the cryo tube near the end of Reach is really Linda.
I created the Moa XING avatar pic.
Also I earned the All Star nameplate with this submission to Week 14 All Stars http://www.bungie.net/images/News/Inline11/bwu_0415/art/likea boss.jpg

Why even change the MC's look in CEA when everything else looks like it is from Reach? It's like "ok keep everything Reach, but let's change up the Mark V from the way it looks in Reach.)
The only other answer is that the Mark V that Noble Team gets is "Spartan-III version." This can explain why the helmet has a little extra "visor cap" to it.

If all the textures are being ovelayed with beefed up Reach stylings then why not the helmet ? Silly question indeed. You would be happy for next-gen graphics flowing through the game only to have (what would be) an old helmet graphic alongside of next gen graphics.

I think his armor is like that so it still looks like Master Chief, because really, the one you made for Reach doesn't remind me of him. Chief's shoulders are different from the Reach Mark shoulders. They always have been. But, I think they just made Chief look like that as starters. They will probably make him so his armor is graphically matched with the marines. Or they'll make his graphics look much better in cutscenes, and gameplay he would have worse graphics because it's a FPS anyway.

  • 06.13.2011 6:21 AM PDT

I think Chief looks more CE in CEA than the Reach model.

I doubt Bungie takes this into consideration, they just make things look cool :/

Too bad it's 343i working on Halo: CEA

  • 06.13.2011 9:16 AM PDT

I am the God Emprah of Mankind.

Deal with it.

Does anyone check any resources? 343 Didn't have time to fix his armor for the E3 trailer it won't look like that in the final version, Frankie said it.

If the helmet's been fixed, is there a picture for it? I'd like to see it.

Not sure if this is the final product, but this has been floating around the interwebs.
It better not be, the visor is way to short. Honestly,if they used the halo reach's Mark V helmet, I would be fine with it.

Pretty sure that's the final product. It's being promoted as a Halo: CEA background. It looks fine, I think.

It might just be a placeholder.

Not sure if its 100% legit.

I hope so. Plus, I heard they were fixing the Mark V.
