    I am pretty sure it will have legendary armor in it (Flames, Elite, Recon) Any packages from Gamestop adds the Multi-Thread Armor.

    You only get the special elite armor from purchasing the console. You get the Mark V Multi Threat chestpiece from a preorder at Gamestop. Everyone with a day 1 purchase from any retailer should get Recon.

    I think it is multi-theat armor, not multi thread

    Silly Souky! lol, but this thread is really wrong. You don't get any of that stuff (excluding recon and Multi threat armor) from pre ordering. It comes with it, and this is such common knowledge. Do we really need a thread for this? If someone really cared they could go to gamestop.com and look it and find out what you get.

    From Game Stop's Website...

    [​IMG] Preorder Halo Reach and receive GameStop exclusive in-game UA Multi-Threat Mjolnir Mark V(B) Armor. While Mark V MJOLNIR armor is designed to operate in a wide variety of combat situations, the UA/Multi-Threat configuration provides Spartans with the most impact across all combat scenarios. The chestpiece's lightweight design allows for maximum freedom of movement while standard MJOLNIR defense systems provide the resilience that helped make Spartans the stuff of legend.

    Store / In-Store Pickup Customers: A code and instructions on how to redeem your exclusive in-game armor will be printed on your receipt at time of purchase. [​IMG]

    For peeps in the UK:

    [​IMG]
    Preorder from either GAME or Gamestation (since they are owned by the same company) to get the Multi-Threat Armour

    [​IMG]
    Preorder from pretty much anywhere and you'll get Recon. GAME, Gamestation, Amazon.co.uk, ASDA etc

    All other armour pieces are the same as the US:

    Elite Officer: Limited Edition
    Flaming Helmet: Legendary Edition

    ahh, thanks.

    also,

    ??? - Halo Waypoint
    Once you've completed some Achievements in Reach, achievements you earned in Halo 3 and ODST will allow you to unlock more armor.

    :surprise:, I am guessing these are still a mystery?

    Just a heads up... when I pre-paid for my standard edition of Halo : Reach in-store, there were no instructions printed on my receipt on how to redeem this bonus.

    I think he has it confused with the limited editions of Black Ops.

    I know GAME doesn't really do a "preorder" in store. You can put your name down to reserve the game but you don't need to pay anything until you pick it up. So I think they just give codes to anyone who picks the game up on release day whether they reserved or not to save arguments. Its easier to just give everyone a code than trying to distinguish between those who actually preordered and those who got it on release day.
