If you compare it to the armor skins we have already seen (check below), we will have many types of armor skins.

Squatchmen

Amazon Skin for the WIN!

Tim

The problem with that for me is that none of the helmets look like they are from Halo..especially the the 3 circle visor for the Amazon customers

Manny

Dude their making it more military like I agree with you but still awesome armor!
Me

Im so confused! Which bonuses come with which packs? (didn’t 343i say they would only make ONE pack to avoid confusion like this?!)

Squatchmen

You’re almost too confused, I don’t know if I can help you. Or you’re just being a big troll, either way.

Me

also will the limited edition come with all the skins?

Chiefy

it doesn’t look like it, based on the websites…

Truth

I think the helmets look awesome! I can’t wait foe this game!!
ish

i get that they are trying to make the helmets more militery like to incorporate the spartan ops but i hope there is an option to change the helm and make it look more like an actual halo helmet
Derp

See, I get where their going but This Is Not Halo to me.
I See Dead Space, Crysis, and a few other games. 343 I thought would do an Amazing job, but every time something new comes to light I literary say ” Go Back To Halo 1-ODST!”
The Color scheme that are on this page are Anime colors.
I love Halo, and the way it was, but this is getting ridiculous.
343 Needs to step back and Look at the Big picture and remember Halos Roots.
343 started with Reach, It Fell. 343 Gets Halo, It Will Fall.

Wow

Dude, relax. These are preorder bonuses. When’s the last time preordee bonuses were the most exclusive cool piece of game data you could use, huh? The color schemes are up to the player, meaning you could put green on green on green and your whole spartan would be green making these skins nonexistent. You unlock new helmets through progression in this game, you really think these are the best helmets they have to offer and theyre just gonna give them away to the people who called dibs on the game? The armor they’ve shown is probably the equivalent of most of the armor you can initially unlock in during your time in the early ranks. There will most definitely be classic halo style helmets later on that will definitely be more valuable than these.

Halo4Dabest

Finally some common sense.

Squatchmen

Just tell you you Bungie is the one that produced that ugly baby we call Reach, and then HANDED it over to Reach, 343i did NOT make that game, and 343i is doing a wonderful job, so leave them alone

Squatchmen

I meant handed it over to 343i… ooops
Halo4Dabest

Halo reach is not an ugly baby is my favourite halo next to halo 2.

Derp you are retarded

Um no way!

This is too good to be true! Finally Halo is becoming something amazing looking rather than stupid. I agree about disliking reach but Halo 4 looks amazing!

It easily is the Gmae of the year.

I can’t believe you are complaining about Halo becoming more realistic than idiotic!

Halo4Dabest

I like how you said he’s retarded and you can’t even spell game.

http://www.idk.com Wow a lot of comments and deep STUFF YOU

Stuff you man
http://www.facebook.com/kamaal.nadem Kamaal Nadem

Dude, your opinion is extremely inaccurate.
http://www.facebook.com/kyle.winklepleck Kyle Winklepleck

umm i hope you realize the colors shown on this page are the colors of the company that you get these various skins through… you can change the colors in-game just like any other Halo game. 343 had nothing to do with the production of Reach, it started falling before they even got the keys.

Snakemansam

Wow these look bad. I’d be embarrassed wearing this pathetic excuse for armour. Trying too hard and failing just as hard. Pathetic

Squatchmen

you’re a pathetic troll, this game looks amazing, go cry in a corner you baby

Snakemansam

You hurt my feelings. No I am not a troll, I have an opinion just like every other person on here. I’m sorry it’s not the same as yours, next time I go to express myself I’ll make sure I think twice about how you will take it so I don’t make you too mad. I still think this game is sounding like it could be one of the best halo’s to come out. Looking forward to more updates. Keep up the good work Tim

Truth

You could just say you don’t like the armor, you don’t have to be so brutal about it.

Snakemansam

Yeah you’re right. I admit I went a bit over the top sorry

haseo yashimora

no gamestop one?

Tim

Gamestop is the same as EB Games

Chiefy

It looks like this bonus is only for the regular edition pre-order, and not the special edition. I checked amazon, and online microsoft, and it isn’t mentioned at all for the special edition. Bummer…

ork[mvgfm sdlmld

youre a fucking bitch ! its ONLY for limited edition.

agent 47

idk i think is only for limited edition. unless you get the armor skin and all the bonuses. while the reg game is only the skin.

SlayeRLZ

I hope these are just a hoax… God please! And the Helmets… just a diversion so we’ll get all bummed out just to be amazed when the game just finally comes out! At least it’s what I hope!

Manny

Sorry dude its not a hoax the gamestop on is actually on they’re web site

Big Cack

best buy , Walmart & Amazon are the BEST looking one though.

Dman

Go to this website and hash it out!!!

pleas

can i still get the gamestop one if i pre orderd the limited edition?

agent 47

yea

LUIS OWNSU

I wish you could get all the skins with the limited edition that would be awesome you probably can because they still havent said what in game armor you get for buying the limited edition.

i fuck your mom at night,

seriously dude?
they been saying according to what retail you pre-order the game you’ll get a specify skin armor. smh your mom should of swallowed you.

Just a dude who likes Halo

1. How dare you insult Reach. It’s no Halo 3 but the multiplayer was still great. Although 343i did add some updates that completely trashed Anniversary multiplayer. 3 Hit melee, 3 shot kill from the magnum, and the spawns. OH GOD THE SPAWNS! It’s practically COD: Space Edition.

2. I can’t say I’m a big fan of the armors that we know about… Especially since they used the absolute worst colors possible on some of them. They will probably look fine with better colors in game though.

3. I hope we can swap out helmets and chests and whatnot. I also hope that we have the same, or better yet, more armor customization than Reach gave us. So far, all the armors seem like suits. You can’t swap shoulders or whatever. I’m also not seeing any of those pouches or Wrist utilities that Halo Reach had.

4. It looks like we are stuck with the usual 2 colors for armor. Rather sad for me. I was hoping that we could have maybe 4 or 5 colors. Although 343i could satisfy me (and most likely others) by giving us a color wheel instead of just like 30 colors to pick from. That we could use whatever colors want by picking our colors and then being able to shade or brighten the colors.

5. As anti-Halo as it would be, I would love to see special armor colors such as rainbow and whatnot.

@c7e4466c10f90274acfa5cd17aeae159:disqus i agree with what your saying after seeing the color wheel/plate thingy, lol

Manny

If you seen the new halo 4 videos for online multiplayer for you can see some one customizing they’re armor so don’t worry about #3 #4 i would love that to #5 you can have different patterns and skins for your armor not sure about rainbow

kemo

wait could someone tell me if the skins could only be used for the armor
http://www.idk.com Wow a lot of comments and deep STUFF YOU

It looks amazing and author thing it comes out a day b4 my BDay AWESOME

Halo4Dabest

I think everyone should appreciate what 343i is doing for us instead of saying this doesn’t look realistic or this isn’t halo. They are trying to change halo for the better and they are doing an amazing job. If you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything also Raptor or Web is my favourite skin.

spencerhodges

i agree with what u say, they might be making it a lil bit like cod but its still halo and it will always be halo, halo 4 FTW

Raxs_Slayer

For god sake do not compare halo 4 to cod -.- they are nothing alike, you people who think they are the same disgust me, CoD is the all time low of games. Halo is the greatest development of Digital and interactive game development i have ever seen, it is a masterpiece, and then for people to say: “Halo IS Like CoD now” Disgrace halo’s name, You should be ashamed -.-

FPS_ConAsuer

Seriously? You have to admit the new structure of halo and cod is pretty similar. They essentially added perks and care packages to halo. I personally love both games and don’t have a problem with the adjustments. Even still, the similarities are fairly obvious
DouBoiFresh

They Took Things From CoD And Put Them in Halo Which i Hate, I Like Halo How It Was Before, Like Halo, Halo 2, Halo3, And Halo Reach.. 343i Is The One Who Disgraced Halos Name..

http://www.facebook.com/jared.holden.376 Jared Holden

To me I dont really care about the Halo vs CoD debate, I like both games and I like the changes for Halo 4, it brings out more advantages to take out the enemy.
Spartan-021

that, and the COD nubs can join in with less biase, only to be slaughtered >:) besides, we now have more and better stuff than COD and solid proof! @FPS_ConAsuer, i’m sorry but its true
Tj Edwards

Maybe you should learn to type without making every words first letter a capital letter, like an autistic squirrel.
Hex

Why Do You Capitalize Every Word You Type

James

I think that might be a bit biast… they have added the perk system in and armor/weapon skins in and that is similar to COD and even a bit like battlefield!

Mr Derp

will hyabusa be returning?

spencerhodges

most likely not they would have said something probably
Batedsuperior5

The Fotus armour looks a like lot the hyabusa, alas, no hyabusa.

halo ruls

what about recon armor

spencerhodges

yep thats a definite i saw it in the halo 4 armor costumization thing
Raxs_Slayer

Well if you Like i have a Youtube Video up that tells you all about the armour currently known in halo and i show you what recon now looks like (: check it out, it’s a great commentary:

spencerhodges

im most likely to get it from amazon because my dad has an amazon account and its one dollar off when pre-ordering so yea and i also think the web skin is pretty cool but i want halo 4 from mighty ape so i get more stuff but its in a money system from the UK i think and i also want the dead eye helmet really bad
spencerhodges

people of halo 4 nation, cause i was interested in what CIO ment (as in CIO armor) because i had the feeling i hear it before but what it basically is,is a dude who controls the intel gathered and he uses that to form strategic goals so i kinda wanna be that cause he looks cool

http://halo4nation.com/ spencer hodges

alright ppl this is my new disqus account but its still me i assure you. (because from now on you’ll never see the old spencer profile

Mr. Fluffy fluffingston

The Gungnir armor is the only returning armor set on the list to look anything like its Reach counterpart. I’m not saying anything bad about hazop, which I think looks better than the reach version. Also the venator armor looks like something from dead space. For me the deadeye helmet, Gungnir, and web armor will have to be my favorites.
anominous

so we have to buy skins for new armor or what?
Aaron Culpepper

raptor armor skin is the best of them all, since i am getting the halo 4 collectors edition i get some of the skins free. so i hope i get the raptor skin free.
Raxs_Slayer

Hey everyone! (: Here is a video about all of the currently know armour in halo 4! Check it out:

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR, i wish i pre-ordered through mighty ape….y u no have Lotus Gamestop!? Here is my website http://www.gamerpeanuts.com/
FPS_ConAsuer

Just a heads up to people making choices. Though its nota halo skin bonus the Microsoft Store is giving a 25 dollar coupon to people who buy halo from them. Might be good for somebody looking to re-up xbox live membership a little cheaper.
quaxxter

halo!!! glad its back! liking the the new updates to the customizble armor!!
suckit

i like the venator most
LightXMotionz

I got a question if anyone here can answer for me… when we acually have the game can we change to colors of your skin?
onyx precurser

i just wish that you could get all the skins with the game and not have to get them by buying 10 copies from differant stores each one has differnt armour eg
eb games forest
amazon spider web
best buy circut
EuphoriaX

Peronally, I love both halo and cod. I can’t wait to play this new one and see all the changes. For all those people who are complaining that 343 is taking aspects of cod, and that you liked the original halos better, then go back and PLAY the older games instead.
William

So do we get the armor with the skin or not? Some retailers say that you get the skin FOR the specific armor. Others just say you get both or just say nothing at all so confused.
Also, I like the reach armors more because these look too weird compared to the past halo armors. The amazon 1 has 3 eyes and a spider pattern… Game/Walmart have a wierd diving costume. Why can’t the armors look a little bit more… usable… realistic…?
I am also really against the amazon armor because it doesn’t represent me as a person because im scaered of spiders
lolops

do u get the armour as well or just the skin
chris

do the le gets all of it are no
Spartan-021

in the long run, i don’t think these changes will make THAT big of a difference. so what, there’s more armor customization, and little game changers. will that really make so big of an impact on Halo’s gameplay? if anything, it just makes it easier for new players, while giving some options to veterans who want a new experience. besides, there’s modes for the classic halo fans.
Aquiles baesta

The armors looks cool but these are so futurists. Well doesnt matter. im just waiting for the gameplay.
Swag

Might get amazon one so I can make venom from spiderman
SpikedYum

No. Just no. I want a human in armour, not a robotic power ranger.
Seriously, the game looks awesome, everything except the stupid armor.
The armor makes me feel like I am a robot with the image of a power ranger, not a kick ass Spartan.

I am big on the whole armour thing. I personally can’t play a game unless the character looks like a human being, and this just looks like robotics.

Might not get it now.
justanothercommenter

i hated halo reach, bungie had a contract with microsoft and i think they screwed it up on purpose once it ran out. To the real classic halo players and mlg players i think they can all agree with this, halo reach made the gameplay so much worse and cheap with all the armor abilities

Spartan-021

dude, the only problem was armor lock. hologram: whatever. sprint: the new essential to gaming, considering before in halo the person who shot first usually won. jet pack: cmon! u gotta admit it was hilarious getting splattered by a runaway banshee piece. drop shield: practically a less OP version of the bubble.

Batedsuperior5

hi
Halo 4 looks great, can’t wait, armour all looks awesome. Already preorded.
insainman56

hey halo may seem like cod or watever but there differnt so it does not matter it only means that ther taking great things form a great and making halo better while using there own fashion so drop the debate and just love the game. also if makes the game any better than it already is i dont care.
halo BOii

halo iz gunna be the best game of 2013 i know it<3
Frenchy036

does anyone know if amazon SE pre orders are getting this too? because i bought it with that intention and its not looking like it on the page…
John The Man

Halo = 343 read it. They’re all just different names, working on the same thing. Everything revolving around the halo franchise is run by a lot of people.

Bungie announced that Halo: Reach would be their last Halo game, and that all future projects would be developed by 343i.[8] During this transition, some Bungie staff members transferred to 343i. Their first project was Halo Waypoint, a downloadable application for the Xbox 360 and later Windows Phone 7, iOS & Android where players can track their accomplishments through the Halo series of games as well as keep up to date with the latest Halo related news and content. 343i also developed Halo: Reach’s second map pack entitled “Defiant” in conjunction with Certain Affinity. Additionally, the studio was involved in the development of Halo Legends, a collection of animated short films based on the Halo lore. When Pandemic Studios was liquidated, a large number of staff moved to 343i.[
Over a dozen former Pandemic developers are now employed at 343 Industries having worked on Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary and currently working on Halo 4.

Will we be able to earn the armor and skins even though you do not pre order the game, and someone plees reply.
http://www.facebook.com/josekathy.granados Jose Kathy Granados

I pre-ordered from amazon. Are they supposed to give me a code for the skins or how does that work?
http://www.facebook.com/gerardo.campana.568 Gerardo Campana

I preordered the game from amazon and already got it. But i did not get any code or anything to download the skin. Can anyone help me with this?
James

I do like the skins, and armors however i think 343 have lost the UNSC design touch a little and merged a bit with the covenant’s armor style, for example the venator dosent look at all like UNSC style it looks to high tech if you understand? However if you compare these armours to the Reach armor sets i personally think these are not spartan armor! UNSC is all about sharp corners and bumps for no clear reason and to look cold and mechanical !!!
