[@physical_insanity]

I honestly figure the best way to implement both schools of thought is to issue Spartans adequate Mjolnir sets on a mission by mission basis. If a Spartan needs the edge in CQB combat, they'll have CQB armour instead or if they need to perform EVA duties, they have the EVA set with the built in -music player- AMBAC device, but most of the time they'd be using the standard set. That way, by swapping out pieces frequently, the Covenant still won't be able to tell which Spartan is which, keeping the Demon and Spartans Never Die myths alive.

[@chromicm6686]

Considering they were 3's it shouldnt be too much of an issue that they are wearing mis matched armour. Most Spartan 3's were only issued SPI armour, only elite teams like noble were issued Mjolnir, and that was usualy second hand sets left over or recovered from fallen 2's

[@somewhiteguy8407]

Honestly wearing that armor in the opening scene when carter tells you that he “read your file” and to “leave that lone wolf stuff behind” hits different.

Im just now realizing how much weight was in what Kat said at 21:36 Shows you just how intelligent she had to be to uncover all that information and keep it discreet, which is more than likely the reason Carter was able to read the entirety of B-312's file, which ONI themselves didn't want him to see.

[@Raven_withaRailgun]

People often sidesweep Kat's intelligence to meme about her death and hate on her driving skills, or just focus on the over sexualization of her (which I'm not too upset about seeing as this is a game with a primarily male fanbase). They fail. To realize that there was no system in existence that she could not hack into. She even invented one of the main components in the newer Mark V [B] MJOLNIR armor, which was a Bypass system that allowed for, in summary, more comfortable movement at the expense the suit's coolant systems. Every single crazy plan Noble team has gone on has been planned by Kat. Operation: Offset Eye, Operation: UPPERCUT, both were success (Kind of, for Uppercut, since they lost Jorge and it didn't really work.) Kat sadly doesnt get enough credit for he intelligence as much as she's hated for her driving AI, sexualized, and memed on for her death.

[@OBEYWEEGEE]

I’m so glad to see that there are others who agree that Spartans look more iconic when they’re in uniform instead of a mismatched variety of armors. It makes a more powerful impression in every aspect, and truly makes them feel like they’re the same “species”. It also feels special seeing so many of them since we grew up with Chief in his iconic armor being the “last Spartan”.

[@ProjectTaker]

The mismatch variety of armors can make sense. Noble Team in particular is comprised exclusively of specialists who would need specific equipment to suit their jobs. The brightly coloured armors though? Nah. All greens, all day.

[@paulypauleypolly6417]

It might fit the narrative of the books but bungie said even tho they like the book and what Erik Nylund did with it, nothing overrides the canon and precedent set in the games. It’s a smart decision cause you would want your general audience to understand the story and what’s going on without being confused. Outside of hardcore fans most people don’t read the books therefore if books were set in stone like the fall of reach then 75% of this game would be inaccurate and that would confuse and upset most casual fans, and the majority of halo fans are casual players. These are Spartan-IIIs so it makes sense that they may not be wearing the standard set the Spartan IIs we’re issued especially since noble team are all headhunters and are basically a special forces team level inside the already special forces nature of all Spartans

Kats death is such a good scene. Such a good game. It really was ahead of its time by mountains. The way that they keep tension through the bickering of the spartans and the intense music the whole way, only to be suddenly stopped with the sound of a gunshot, followed by Kat's lifeless body dropping only to be caught by Your Character, and immediately followed by silence. Silence that is broken by a single piano note, and Noble Six's first reaction being to get a gun and shoot back. The way the rest of the team immediately and without a sound pull out their rifles, fall into formation and shoot back as well, even though they know its hopeless, its just all they've ever known. The civilians begging for their lives after they saw one of the so called unkillable super soldiers get gunned down right in front of them. Carter's body language in the end while holding his team mate's lifeless body, the destroyed city in the distance, the piano, all of it. Beautiful. There are games that depicted the horrors of war far better than reach ever could, but reach did in it's own more subtle way. Set back after setback, loss after loss, the feeling of being powerless in a war that you can't win on your own elicits a feeling of dread, because while still being a spartan, your no longer the one-man-army Master Chief.

I couldn't help but laugh when Kat's helmet went back to the original air assault helmet when she got shot in the head lmao, caught me so off guard

[@sammyfb488]

While I liked the original Spartan's individuality, I really do like seeing them with matching Mk V. I feel like this is the way it really would've been.

[@James_Mansbridge]

The armour uniformity with slight variations and modifications looks great. There's something really staisfying about the uniformity, and the animations are good enough that you can still tell who's who (though maybe that's because I've played the game 1000 times).

[@ArmadaFan2003]

Not gonna lie, this feels right. Seeing a Spartan II team being the catalyst instead of some random Spartan III team. Would have demonstrated Chief is avenging his fallen brethren. Not just humanity, but his fellow Spartans. Plus adds more intrigue to the vast lore of Halo.

[@moastew1140]

Halsey's comment on Jorge's armour at 10:53 makes much more sense now, lmao.

[@ThelRiSycusee]

Fr it does lol

[@thunderspear2251]

It scares me that I almost like it more... Probably just shows how iconic that armor is...

I actually never realized that is the ship you shoot good eye !

Where?

[@CASTdissocation]

I’m so in love with this

[@baldwiniv5339]

I think the introduction of the covenant should have been that cut scene at the end of the first mission, and the whole mission modeled as a mystery, Imagine how much more terryfying it would be to realise the covenant is here by nearly getting you head sliced off by Elite zealots.

[@dauntlesswarriorproductions112]

See, THIS. THIS right here is what Reach should have been. I believe Spartans should just be either ODG or grey. Save the custom armor colors for multiplayer.

Or ya know, just the entire adaptation of the novel.

@@dauntlesswarriorproductions112 Yeah you could say I'm still salty that Reach didn't adapt the book.

That civilian chatter after the glassing cutscene is horrifying. I’ve never noticed those lines before.. for 12 years. Damn these cutscene are beautiful though.

[@lemmingscanfly5]

Glad Jorge keeps his MK4.

Close your eyes for a second and picture Emile wearing that helmet from the multiplayer with the mister chief face drawing on it. 😂

[@Epsi_TBCG]

This mod looks amazing! Reminds me of what could've been a Fall of Reach video game featuring Blue Team and the rest of the SIIs. Also congrats on 700 subs...you're welcome XD

[@ThelRiSycusee]

Thank you !! It means alot to me 😊

[@rhoderfps6514]

I won't lie I love how they all have the same primary armor base designs with some key notes of the original but me personally would love to see them as a odst strike team

[@thewretchedpleb7484]

Only thing that would make this feel more nostalgic is if the zealot elites were golden :D

[@xtflogicalohio3044]

they did jorge justice with this mod. "Big, green, and mean." indeed.

[@ARK8844]

i actually really like this concept of more uniformity. this is a great job!

[@robotsix6268]

Noble 6's introduction as a lone wolf was way better than the cutscenes Halo Infinite did for their "lone wolf" battle pass.

[@YourLocalActor]

The helmets could have stayed since it was common with the armor set, and Jorge’s Supplemental armor plate on his chest, shoulder have been black or grey. However Noble 6’s helmet was the only one that should be the Mark V Mjolnir helmet.

[@Eternal_Archgod]

Still feel like the line should of been "that lone shit stays behind" would of had more of a impact of a commander that values team work over solo ops

[@saturnswachter841]

Seeing the Spartans relatively the same with special mods like Emile's big ass shoulder knife and Jun's extra ammo is a nice touch

[@keldricharts]

Would look cool to have each of them use their colors for their accents. But still, having a team like this is still badass.

[@ShahudAkbar]

Holy hell this is awesome. This is how Reach shouldve been but with some variations to the helmet to make each character stand out a little more.

[@tarheelpro87]

This actually looks so much better then how it is in game to me. It always bothers me that they’re wearing bright blues, and reds, not tactical colors. Only ones who had armor colors that would make good camo were Jun and Emile. But seeing how everyone is in uniform here, but their armors are modified to their specializations still. I wish this were canon so bad bro.

[@sneedclavehere8918]

Tbf you could argue that the more "outlandish" colors make sense considering it's sci-fi, maybe there are planets and/or covenant installations where those color schemes would be helpful, the same way jun and Emile's colors help them in green and urban zones respectively
