What If there is hidden armor within Reach?
« on: March 03, 2011, 00:27:38 »
This got me thinking..

http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=56561871&postRepeater1-p=1

From what I understand NEW armor can NOT be added to Reach...not unless it already exists.

FACT: Never before seen helmets have been seen in pictures and video of the new DLC

FACT: New armor can not be added to Reach

FACT: Bungie stated on the BWU that there is no NEW armor with the incoming DLC

So what do we do?

There are 3 ways to gain armor.

1. By code (Flaming Recon)

Getting codes from pre-ordering and store bonuses like the beer bottle belt.

2. Rank/ Money (If you have the Cr and Rank)

Obviously as you rank and gain Cr you can unlock/but new armor.

3. Halo Way point ( Due a Task get some armor)

By downloading and competing a few minor tasks you get to unlock Way point exclusive armor. The only way to get this stuff is through Way point.

From what I understand 343 created the new maps for the upcoming map pack and Bungie is turning over the franchise into their highly capable hands, so would it be so far fetch that 343 get to keep some goodies to dangle in front of Halo fans?

Come here kiddies, I have some candy!!

I for one think that we WILL see more armor and it will only be unlocked when 343/ Way point says so.

If there is a switch, it will most likely be within the map pack.

I won't be getting it, but I hope you guys find some cool stuff.
I feel it

I shall be getting it, and hopefully soon! 


I really think this is a legitimate photo, even though the helmet looks a little darker.  Aren't there some armor pieces that just look darker than the rest anyway?

Btw, I think it looks like a Bionicle.

Remember guys,
Quote
From BWU 02/25/11:
There is no new armor coming with the Defiant Map Pack. On March 15th, you can look forward to three new maps: Condemned (supports 6 - 12 players), Highlands (supports 8 - 16 players), and Unearthed (supports up to 4 players in Firefight mode).

And no, I don't think it means it is already on the disc, even though it is possible. It could also be just some internal build by Certain Affinity.

Right, no NEW armor. Internal build Imp? Come on Imp, I bet there is some goodies hidden away so well that only the most determined players can unlock. Even the Way point armors aren't visible unless you unlock them.

Well, yeah, there might be something, but that picture doesn't prove anything. If there is some Vidmaster to come, we may be able to unlock some armor trough it, like the last time. I would be kinda dissappointed if it was that helmet, though. :P

Um, yes, yes they are.
