I mean they could have at the very beginning at the least and then changed it when he found infinity. The multiplayer Mark VI armor is far more similar to the Halo 3 model than what was forced upon us in the campaign.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Crazy LlamaX [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] flamedude I don't get why they redesigned his armor TWICE. Halo 4 has two sets of Mk VI, and the worst thing about it is that the Chief apparently retires his Mk VI at the end of the game. So we don't get the classic armor at all in H4 and we never will again. Bravo 343i.[/quote] They would have to make a completely different model for it, doesn't seem worth it for one set of armor. [/quote] You do realise that you get Mk VI for completing H4 on Legendary right? My point is that the Mk VI you get is another redesign of the Chiefs classic armor from H3. So you have the nanobot Mk VI that the Chief wears in Campaign and you get redesigned Mk VI that your S-IV wears in Multiplayer. They redesigned the Mk VI twice. They couldn't even give us something untouched except for the helmet and I can imagine 343i arguing over that.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Black Eagle X99 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] RockdaleRooster In all seriousness though I believe that SMAC array got destroyed in the Battle For Earth. They're very expensive seeing as only 2 planets had them and I think Reach Reach only had 20 but Earth was supposed to have 300. And with most of the Navy budget going to Infinity I Guess they haven't had the time or funds to rebuild them.[/quote]Well regardless of any of that the armor and remodel of the Forward Unto dawn is pretty inescusible for the game that was supposed to be completely true to cannon.[/quote] Yeah I'm not gonna try to justify that because it's not possible.

I suppose Bungie destroyed canon when they changed the HUD from 2 to 3? Or maybe when they changed his gauntlets. [/quote]No, they said it was a graphic update. Which is a bull-blam!- cop out. They are in fact required to explain his armor change. Bungie did it from Halo 2-3. Oh and a HUD update is pretty different from the actual armor. It could easily be done with software. Want to explain how he got a new set of armor with the same scratches while he was in deep space? Or why said armor also appears is Halsey's flashbacks at the beginning? Or maybe you can explain or justify why the cryo room on the Dawn is different, why the rear of the ship has a bridge, or the presence of the goddam missile courtyard. They not only changed the ship, they made it bigger! That is just ignorance at it's finest.

What happens when Master Chef has to poo during the campaign? Does he do it in-between cinematics? Edit: [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=11803454&postRepeater1-p=1]lol[/url][/quote] Actually he did it on the move. Little known fact the MJOLNIR armors backside plate is actually a buttflap that Cortana can lower whenever she saw Chief had to poop.

The new armor looks way cooler.

[/quote]Because as far as 343i is concerned -blam!- you and what you liked about sense. It was in the flashbacks at the beginning as well, which I found equally out of place. Then we have the redesigned Forward Unto Dawn that looked nothing at all like the one from Halo 3. To add to that list of nonsensical things, when the Didact attacks Earth where was the entire UNSC fleet and their orbital MAC defense grid?
