"We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds...'
I suppose we all thought that one way or another."
- J. Robert Oppenheimer

Most the helmets are pretty bad.
And I really don't like the way they made the backside of the armor look.

You got stuck by FalconStickr

The helmets look alright. I prefer Reach helmets myself. But wont really know until I get my hands on this game.

The Game

-blam!-. It looks like -blam!-.
Except for Scout and Recruit. Those look bad ass.

I'm not really an Apple person (Bananas forever) but damn, that's kinda sad.

They sorta' suck, but I'll wait until I get a full-on view in the game itself.

Reach armours were much better IMO; I especially liked the COMMANDO helmet

Some of the armor I say look nice, and some of them are ugly.

It's about a 50/50 type scale for me on armor in H4.

  • 09.12.2012 7:27 PM PDT

I will own everyone in Halo: Reach

Ugly as hell. Definitely.

  • 09.12.2012 7:30 PM PDT

some look decent, others ugly as hell. several of them kinda remind me of a cross between a transformer and a easter island head.

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

Most of it looks like absolute -blam!-. The only helmet that I've liked so far is scanner because it reminds me of the ARC troopers from Star Wars. Otherwise it's just weird, some of them also don't appear original. That oceanic one is a definite rip-off of Dead Space armor, intentional or not. Reach had the best armor. It looked more functional than this stuff, and more believable. I think the proper term was gritty. It looked used and worn. This stuff looks too polished. Like it's fresh off the assembly line and has never been used. Bleh.

The Nanosuit remains my favorite future armor, Mandalorian armor comes up after that.

I agree, Reach armor just made more sense. With that said, I still like some of the new armor because it looks so stylized and I kinda like that. It sort gives each armor piece a more definitive personality and style of it's own. Also, I didn't really like how dull and faded the armor colors looked in Reach. It just didn't look as cool as in, say, Halo 3.

I've taken -blam!-s that looked better than most of the armor in Halo 4.

The only reason I'm going to play multiplayer is to laugh at anyone wearing some of the more ridiculous stuff. And I'm sure they will, what with all the ugly terrible things I've seen in Reach.

  • 10.29.2012 1:42 PM PDT

Between all the god-awful helmets there are a few acceptable.

You crazy?

Pilot, Security, ODST, CQC, EVA, Operator, Commando, and HAZOP all looked awesome in Reach. The only one that really sucked was Scout. I want my Halo 3 Scout helmet back dammit!

Mixed. Some look pretty cool, whilst others are odd.

More variety, at least.

It looks futuristic but ugly as hell. Reach armor all the way.

Most of the designs are just plain bad, and I hate how the armor looks like it's made out of plastic.

I like the idea of making the undersuit look more like the Nanosuit, though.

I think it's okay. It has gems.

-pukes- You were a midget in Reach, I like the Crysis looking body suit in H4, Maybe I've grown to like it, I don't know.

I change shapes just to hide in this place but im still im still an animal...

Some of the best armour yet in my opinion, makes previous spartans look like toys. And reach armour was the worst by far in my opinion, just all bland squares and flat shapes, 90% of the shoulder pads and chests were pretty much the same and worthless.

Here is the Slayer of Cake. May he find piece in death after a life full of violence and unrest battling the tyranny of desserts.

Eh, some of them look good, while some look like Power Rangers. I'll probably use the classic helmets.

Da faq?

Reach armor was the best (besides Scout), it looked more realistic in design, used (chips in the armor, scratches, etc), and gave a bit of depth to the armor. Not to mention that you could get some pretty beastly stuff, Like ODST, HAZOP, and Pilot.
