Subject: Whats the point of armor if it doesn't protect you?

If I could change a few things in Reach, it would be....

*Get rid of yoinking and medal ( yoinking is retarded )
*Force Bungie to work again and get rid of 343's existence
* A few other things

You have 2 layers to survive with...
Which are the Shields and the Armor Themselves
Why doesn't the armor ( THAT YOUR WEARING ) help??Is it made out of plastic??

I'm the cult of personality,
I call it like i see it, if i feel the need to be blunt and to the point, then i will, if i feel the need to be very detailed, i will, im here to stay and im here to do things my way, if you respect that or not is your choice, not mine,
and don't worry, while i don't agree with everyone's opinion, i do respect everyone's opinion.

the armor is the shield part, the bullits can easyly get through the armor, so the armor generates a shield.

honestly i have no idea.

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Halo has cardboard energy shields, and without the armor it'd only take two bullets to kill you.

In other words, it'd be Call of Duty.

You'd think a suit of armor that costs more than ships like the Pillar of Autumn would be nigh indestructible. The UNSC guns in the game use 500 year old technology, so how you can get killed by them while wearing futuristic powered armor is kind of silly.

I know that game canon isn't applicable in multiplayer, though. If Halo was 100% canon (even the campaign), then your character really WOULD be almost indestructible.

Nowhere close. Canon Spartans are pretty good, but they're far from invulnerable.
