lmao

The only "difference" is the Cod piece and maybe his shoulder pads. the suits get graphically updated every game so this isn't different.

The helmet was also different. (As for the easily noticable stuff)

Halo 4
Halo 3
Halo 2
Halo: Combat Evolved

(Used their early promotional looks to have a fair display towards the Halo 4 Master Chief. The only one that looks significantly different is the Combat Evolved version, though. :P)

My theory, personally, is that Master Chief, early on in the game, from the frigate, gathers some new armor after being brought into whatever that thing is in the trailer. Instead of using Master Chief with his original armor for the trailer, they decided to use the new armor so that they will get a fan reaction to the armor. If they read most people hate it, they will change it to better suit us, if not, they will keep it, for the most part, the same.

Its still Mark VI the artists probably wanted to make it a little more fresh.

I personally think it looks terrible. The chest, helmet shoulder armor, pretty much everything has been changed. I think that 343 just wants to change Masterchief to something new to make it their icon instead of Bungie's.

Death to rank junkies.

It's probably a change in appearance only, just like from Halo 2 to Halo 3. All the hate makes no sense whatsoever.

Well, I am a halo fanatic, for starters. When I have nothing to do for the day, I will just plainly dedicate those few hours of my life to Halo. Sadly, my bro turned his back on halo and flew into the world of COD. I also feel like an endangered species, because every girl I know absolutely HATES video games. You never see a girl playing halo much, so if your'e a girl who plays halo and sees no other girl playing halo, we're out there. :^D

WHERE DID HE GET THE JETPACK? Seriously?! >:O

its not a freakin jetpack!

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

They need a cup for the chief lol

Hello! You may also know me as Ijnekono. How you have made your way here I do not know, but welcome. (:

I don't like how MC's armor has magically changed, but maybe it will be explained. Even if it's not, just know Chief shouldn't have any new equipment since Halo 3 since he's been in stasis.

  • 08.20.2011 2:22 PM PDT

IMO, I don't like the change, they should update it better and in a more recognizable fashion.
There are noticeable chunks of his armor "missing". An example being the absence of his groin plate and chunks from the thigh and arm area's. It's also clear that the shoulder pads have changed into that of the Halo Wars Mk.4, which- canon wise- is a bloody deathtrap.

  • 08.20.2011 3:01 PM PDT

Yeah i know! halo 4s armory like reachs

Kindly explain why aesthetic changes are a canonical "deathtrap"?

Were that the case, there's a few pretty big ones in Halo 3 where the Arbiter had his armour change colour, sprout a flashlight and get some mandible guards. Rtas got some new shoulder pads, Johnson became white, John got some new gauntlets etc etc.
