    no, i want an actual red visor. there's blue i'm surprised they didn't have red (maybe unlock at field marshall or something). Or green for that matter.

    Well Jorge in campaign has a Red visor. So there is a Red visor in the game. I dunno if that means red visors possible in MM but I've always wanted red :p.


    Anyway here's some pics of "New Armor" in the Deviant map pack allegedly from a trailer. (I Don't watch DLC trailers so I can't verify but look legit)

    I've seen every helmet chest piece in Halo Reach and that isn't any version of 2 or more mixed up, defiantly a new helmet(possibly even a new chest piece) I dunno what this means though. Just putting cards on table and hoping means new armor.

    I've always liked the idea of a customizable visor color, unlocked at some high level and available for something steep, like 1,000,000 cR. That'd be worth it, but not so common it's no longer cool to have.

    And yeah, that screeny is from the DLC trailer and that's definitely a player, not a hologram, I mean he's strafing and shooting, not just walking forward. If that's not new or something unlocked via DLC code, then it's some weird glitch that made it into the trailer by coincidence.

    Well the helmet looks almost like an ODST helmet except with a big eye... perhaps a new variation of the ODST helmet designed to resemble Romeo from Halo 3 ODST? Who knows.

    I presume that the Announcer voice that is heard it the gameplay vid of Unearthed will also be available for purchase in the Armory...

    I really hope so. Then he can say "You SUCK" in context, from that beta recording ages ago? :)

    I'm surprised no one posted this yet. Here you go:

    EDIT: Nevermind... :S

    By the way: think these armor perms may be unlocked via waypoint (as long as it doesn't force me to 100% Halo Wars, I'm fine with it ;) )

    Unless this helmet was really hidden in Reach's shipping code, I don't see how this will be able to be 'worn' outside of the Defiant maps. Interesting...

    ...and a sweet-ass helmet. dowant

    I'm sorry, but really? That helmet looks rubbish. There are hundreds of better designs that they could have come up with, but this one is awful. It makes you look like you've had one eye taken out and the other one enhanced into a robotic eye. And i thought that th Gungnir "Brick Face" helmet was bad. It makes you look like a cyborg, not a Spartan

    That helmet is hideous. Like really, really ugly. It doesn't feel like halo even a little.

    Yeah. I missed your link :p


    Anyways, despite how gross it looks, maybe the armor existed in Reach's coding and is simply hidden in Halo Waypoint's armory and that is how it will be added in.

    You're right. Despite it not being something I like, others do, and maybe there will be more for me to be interested in later.

    I don't know what "really hidden" means, has Reach's code been fully broken and displayed?

    There could have been lots of stuff in the code that was meant to be unlocked until a later time. That is a standard thing most game developers do nowadays, they put content on the disk that will be unlocked later for money.

    I meant 'hidden' in a way that all the code-hackers wouldn't be able to tell what it was when they first cracked it open and modded all the armor perms before the game hit the shelves.
