When you wear red though you're like a human target, easy prey for snipers to just pick off...

How is wearing Red and getting sniped any different than getting sniped while wearing any other color? Ok, first of all, the lighting in Halo's multiplayer stages isn't that great. You can't hide in shadows while wearing black. There parts of theblack armor that can still be seen very easily. The only way you can effectively hide is to use camo. Even that wont work with the sniper rifle because you can still see the ripple effect as the character moves. You're making Halo's multiplayer mode sound more hardcore than it really is. There's no way to hide from snipers other than hiding behind something or wearing camo, and like I said, camo is just as bad when you're being sniped as it is without camo, because the sniper rifle's 10x magnification let's you see the ripple, even while the person in camo is standing idle. On top of that, even when you're "blending in with the shadows" or in camo, your targeting reticle turns red and you will see your target that way. A lot of good blending in the shadows with black armor did you, let me tell you.

Armor color has no effect on Halo at all. It's pretty much there for identifying teams and personalizing your Multiplayer character. It doesn't help you blend in with your surroundings.

I usually play Blue.

I plan a Blue (Main) and Yellow (Secondary/Emblems) scheme for Halo 2.

I like the Sage armor the best. It brings out the solider in me I think. Plus, it's great for grassy fields and all. To me it just looks good. I to like to snipe (a lot to much if you ask my friends) Foreman. But in H2 I plan on being Gold MC. Gotta love that Gold armor, kinda general like.

I like to use Cobalt. I think it's a cool color and it's a little helpful when you're playing in Hang 'Em High, which me and my friends do frequently, with the Rockets setting. It's fun you should try it.

Red. I dont know why i just like the color on MC.


[color=red] is that cos you like the red team from red vs blue and in the FTC vidios? [/color] Soz i'm a bit off topic, but i use the black color because i like to hide in shadows on Two Betreyals.

Usually, before a game I ask what level we will play, then chnge my character to blend in with the environment. It's kinda cheating though.

i use a brownish orange for BG, grey for Hang em high, white for sidewinder, blue for Derelict, grey for damnation. Whenever i play one on one matches with a system link (so there isnt any screen looking) ill just meld into the background and take the game one kill at a time while moving my position when i know my opponent isnt looking
