In the books the blue bulb thing talks about how a level 12 suit is required to comfortably travel through the library as the flood are loose, MC's is classed as level 2 by said bulb. Perhaps its forrunner tech that he's scrounged, apparently the vid is from quite a way into the game so it migh be part of one of those upgrade things you get in some games.

I dont think its a new suit at all i just think its been wore down and the reason why his suit is a dif color is he might of been out in the sun tolong and it took away the color or its covered in a heck of a lot of dust or something becus there is no way they would of already had a new suit only about 6 days after he got the 2nd one ...

You guys do realize his suit is brown in the trailer,don't you? I think thats proof of new armor...

Gets new armor in Halo 2,why not Halo 3?

As far as the grabbling hook goes...no...


So what if his suit changed color? it could be from battle damage, or more likely, all the sand from the wind swept area of africa.

and in the book when they are below ONI base 5 (or however many) spartans had to split up a single new MJOLNIR suit, and the guy Sam got the gloves and it said that he had a massively better radar; the radar device is in the gloves... so if he does have new gloves... he gets a better radar... and really, i couldnt give two -blam!-s about that.

They didn't tell us what it was it could have been anything. Frankie gets scared easy incase you didn't know.

-BH-

Been here 6 years, been blacklisted 6 times, that's why I'm not Mythic.

It took around 6-7 years for ONI to develop the Mk. VI after the Mk. V. There is no way that they developed 2 completely new suits of armor in around 2 weeks.

The reason the armor is brownish colored is due to the scuffing of his actual color and the reflection off of the sand.

you guys realise that the trailer is 3/4's through the game. We will most likely see how he gets the new gloves during the gamplay up to the trailer.

I'll have you know
that I've become
Indestructible!

I was going to say it's not likely to be Mark VIII, but others already gave the reasons I thought of.
He hadn't been issued MKVII yet, and he apparently just got back from his first impromptu mission in his shiney new MKVI armor.

But 8... that's how many people survived the Flood of Genesis... also the number of people who got off of halo according to HALO: First Strike.

:rolls eyes: They said in the Q&A weekly update that the armor is just worn down, and it is the same suit. Same Chief. Same Person. Why is this Halo3 forum even here? There is only a 2 minute clip on the game for crying out loud! Its nothing but rumors and "Should the master chief be a green alien who reveals his face while saving the world by giving up his life at the ending when the Ark makes ice cream for everyone?" in here.....

Who's going to give him new gloves when the humans are fighting for their lives. His armor is exactly the same besides the gloves which is probably Bungie making use of the next gen tech.

guys, this is a really good find, the military has always used these kinda things to identify there products and bungie is not new to this kina thing either

  • 06.04.2006 10:31 AM PDT

so much speculation about 1 small change... i bet Bungie's proud lol

but seriously maybe chief (or some1 else) has just painted his armour or the sand made it a new colour, becuz he IS in the African desert.

And the gloves, well mayb bungie wanted to include something different, rather than re-using old material.

In the book they split up Mark VI armor. duh. And they all got uprades...not just sam.

Battle damage cant change color. The sand could,but I still say its a new suit.

C'mon

Halo 1= Mark V
Halo 2=Mark VI
Halo 3 Mark VII
