Viual damage would be good, but there would have to be a limit as to how much you can get damaged.

Different symbols for different classes?

I think they should have custom helmets and armor. so if you wanted to you could have a red visor, steele armor, and racing stripes. maybe something like forza, where you can design layers of paint on your amror. that would increase Halo 3's overall playing time .005 secs since gameplay is all that matters in multiplayer. cauz hey whos gunna say "nice armor on," live they usaully just say,"hey you stole my idea get your own or ill get pwned by you".pretty much.

I totally agree. The standard Spartan and Elite avatars were fine for Halo 2, but if Halo 3 is to break any new ground in the series it would have to be in the multi-player portion of the game.

The multi-player (online especially) portion of Halo 2 is what keeps the game, to this day, the most played games on the Xbox. On the Xbox 360 they could sell different customizations and armor sets via Xbox Live Marketplace. it wouldn;t affect performance, but simply be a cosmetic upgrade.

Everyone wants to have an individual character design. I hope if anything comes out of these message boards - this feature gets implemented.

Custom Skins for custom games that you could sell over the Market place would be really cool.

As far as the Classes,(Sniper Infantry Grenadier? Rocket Whore) I wouldn't really want to see. I use every weapon in the game all the time.

Visible damage and full customizeation of the armor would be cool that means the visor the avatar the color and poco dots or flames would be a plus.

They should add white and black to the team colors.


I can see so many idiotic people abusing that.

  • 07.07.2006 9:14 PM PDT

Don’t get mad if I flame you because you cannot spell, or because my three year old has better grammar and etiquette than you.

I still say its a bad idea, just think you would have MC clowns running around.

So, you don't have to be a clown it's what anyone wants to be.

If they had different marks of armor for Spartans what would Elites have?


Regular elite, honor guard, Ranger, counsel member, Arbiter...

But if we chould customize our armor and icons like you can your car's paint job in forza we chould make awsome armor. I whould have spartan armor vertions of my "ZOMG Car" and "Bunny rider". Maby even make spartan vertion of the "Commie Cupper".

=D

Something like that whould be perfect for makeing people look just that much differnt. Maby even share your armor desienes and logo's with friends and ect. Or give clan leaders to set a "Clan colours" where every one keeps there logo but all the same look when in clan matches.

THat would be pretty cool. Make your own design and place it on you character so it's truly yours. Or just choose the voodo shrunken head that's already in the list, either way works. With the change in customization from halo 1 and 2 we may be able to do as much as customize battle scars if we're lucky.

The color black was taken out because the bunie guys are blind. I had no problem with it when I played Halo: CE. That is why the Stealth Elites are black, there is a reson behind it.

  • 07.08.2006 11:44 AM PDT

I think you should have Primary and Secondary colors like in Halo 2 but you should also be able to change the color of your visor.Also you should be able to add special stuff like you could choose where your avater is and you could choose if your armor is regular or damaged.Also you could choose what type of armor you have:MArk 5 or Mark 6.And for elites you could choose your eye color,skin color and if you want to look like a councilor rangerhonor guard orregular.Imagine seeing a White and Gold Ranger with Blue eyes!Also you could look like a arbiter but if you were one you couldnt choose what color you are.
