Exactly, that was such a dumb excuse for not including Black. And the only time your color would show up as Black is in FFA's.

Black armor would be imbalanced in the current Halo 2 multiplayer as there are many maps with alot of shadows where a player would be virtually invisible. Now if they readded the flash light such as back in Halo 1, this would conteract that, but it would still be slightly imbalanced alowing some players to very easily conceal themselves.

If my calculations are correct, then Slinky+Escalator = INFINITE FUN!

Home is were the Hog is.

It really would be crappy for balance. As is, dark colors hide very well on dark maps.

What they SHOULD do though, is make black available for all the insignia colors.

In Halo 3 I hope there is a color that is truly black. Black as the night sky. In Halo CE the black was more grayish and I didn't like it.

If your smart you would pick black. So everyone would be camoflauged. I do not se the unbalnceness.

I would say no, not true black, because it makes the characters invisible when they are in shadows. If they were to include true black in the game, then everyone, including me, would be smart and choose black. It would be unbalanced if any character was black and any characters weren't black in the game. Having true black makes people choose the color of their character based on the tactical advantage of it, instead of pure aesthetics, and aesthetics is the reason they have different colors in the first place.

If they make a "true black" as a color option for a character, they might as well take out all the other color options for primary color.
