Flaming Helmet in Ledgendary edition? Bad idea!

Ok, think about it, EVERYONE is now going to get the ledgendary edition for this (And some where before they knew it would even be in there) Its great, we get some special features for our armour... But what if i show this game to my friend who has never played it before, and we enter a match and he says, "Why is everyones head on fire" Think about it, it may be cool with a few people having it, But now EVERYONE will get it and it will look kind of silly? Anyone agree? EDIT: Look at all the replies saying there not getting the legendary edition for the Flaming Head, It doesnt matter what you getting it for, chances are if you get it your going to put in the code anyway. --------------------------Replies--------------------------------- [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Silent Ki11er89 You know just because you can't order legendary edition that doesn't mean you gotta ruin it for everyone. I saw flaming head in halo 3 but it was meant for only bungie employee and now that everyone can have that in halo reach, is not mean that you can go out flaming on everyone in forum. I sended a msg like this way is because in your post there were 10 pages and didn't thought you would look at the end. Also I get to brag about it to my friend who is fan of halo. sorry for the long msg.[/quote] I hope you kidding, First, I HAVE ordered the legendary edition, Im amking a point that everyone will have a flaming head and it will look silly secondly, how am i ruining it for you? By adressing something on bungie... kk thirdly, you said you saw someone who had flaming recon in Halo 3, So I cant flame people... WTH, There was like 6 people in total who had it in Halo 3, OUT OF MILLIONS! that didnt look silly because people would know by how rare it was that it obviously was an easter egg/something special, But in reach, MILLIONS will have it, It will look silly when more people have flaming heads than people who dont. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Donut Funn So, [b] everyone [/b] you see, in [b] every [/b] Matchmaking game you enter, will have the Flaming Helmet? Yeah, ok... No. Not every single person will get the Legendary Edition. And what the hell is with your edit? I am one of those people who are getting it for the statue. "Chances are you are going to enter the code anyway"? Well damn right I will. Why wouldn't I? It's a gift from Bungie to me for buying their most prestigest edition of their final Halo game. Sounds like you are just mad that you aren't getting Legendary Edition.[/quote] Another idiot. Once again, You an idiot... I am getting the ledgendary edition and ofcoarse i totaly ment every person in the world will have it flaming head (God your a moron) you also said ofcoarse you'll put it in why wouldnt you... well, im not saying why would you put it in, Im saying that you WILL put it in which means another person with flaming head, that comment was ment for the people saying "I'm not buying it for the flaming head im in it for the statue blah blah blah" So shut up Conclusion: Your a massive moron. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Greenknight1138 So you're saying the problem with the flame helmet is that everyone will get it thus giving Reach great sales? Did you really think this through?[/quote] I dont give a crap about sales, I dont work for bungie, I'm talking about what happens when you walk into a matchmaking session and see the whole game with flaming heads. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] CommanderCool69 Not everyone is going to have it. I'm the only one i know out of my friends who is. That's 1 out of five people, judging by my ratio. If you don't like those odds, wait a couple months till Christmas: when a flood of new players come. I'm sure by January of next year, the flame helms will be less and less common. Don't panic. Bungie knows their -blam!-. I promise [/quote] First actually clever person ive noticed too reply, You right, when the new players come and the old get bored, there will be less flaming heads, But my point is still valid especially for the first month of release [Edited on 05.02.2010 8:33 AM PDT]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ChaoS2DeceptioN I have the Reach Console Bundle which is Awesome [I love the system sounds] [/quote] The irony is all the Euro Reach consoles came with the flaming head as well. Guess you got the Halo Legends episode instead. I don't see the big deal anyway; it's just one of many armour upgrades, who cares? [Edited on 09.16.2010 7:14 AM PDT]

  • It does matter a bit, if you're using it in gameplay, it can slightly help/hinder you depending on what role you have in the game

  • The real question is - why the -blam!- does any of this matter? It's a video game, worry about important things in life instead of flaming helmets.

  • Flame Helmet = Good for showing off, Bad for actual games Pros = If you're the kind of person that goes head first into battle, it looks pretty damn cool when you run down the other team -Can help draw attention, good if you're helping someone transport objectives Cons = HORRIBLE for hiding, one dude gets sniped, his buddy turns around and sees a torchlight in the distance, snipes the flame

  • The Reach console sounds pretty sweet. I'm curious to hear the system sounds you mentioned. I assume various sounds from the Halo universe?

  • Oh no! I'm sure Bungie will put a stop to people buying their most expensive gamepack instantly! Also I'm sure your friend won't quit the game because he saw people with a flaming head.

  • why does no one who makes a whiny thread on this nonsense seem to realize that people who have access to flaming helmets will not wear them all the time esp if they are playing competitively/for stats and not just screwing around in big team or sth

  • When I see somone with a flaming head I say to myself, Oh look another Flaming Head (how unique) ....../not! At any rate the effect is small and not really much of a bother to me. And no I do not have legendary (Gasp!) I have the Reach Console Bundle which is Awesome [I love the system sounds] The flaming Effect just reminds me of Unreal tournament 2 + 3, when you headshot somone with the lightning sniper rifle.

  • There is only a limited number of legendary editions so only a small percentage will have their heads on fire :)

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Killjoy 343 Absolutely, man. I agree, I've been playing quite a bit of multiplayer, and I've only seen a few flaming heads here and there. Chances are, only die-hard Halo fans like myself picked up the Legendary Edition. This is all just fanboy garbage, if players think a flaming helmet is stupid and pointless, then don't turn it on. But there's the whole point, many gamers didn't have $150 to shell out for the Legendary Edition, or just didn't want it, and can't turn it on in the fist place. It's the players who feel the need to complain about an armor effect they don't have that make me laugh. If the flaming helmet pisses anyone off, then gun for us in multiplayer. I'll be the orange Spartan with a DMR and a head full of flames.[/quote] And I'll be sporting mine right along side you!

  • ... its called the blue flame. also, "you don't give a crap about sales"? well guess who does? bungie. and YOU are NOT bungie. also, it's virtual armor! who cares about if everyone wears it. Props to Greenknight1138 for making a good point. you tried arguing against that, and you fail.

  • Correct me if im wrong, but dont they only have like 200 000 copies of Legendary edition made? If so, saying that atleast a million copies were bought/picked up on opening day, let alone the rest of the week, wont that make flaming helmets infact pretty rare to see? Just my thoughts on it

  • Wow, another fanboy crying about the flaming helmet. Since this was posted by you months ago, I assume it's possible that your opinion has changed. I purchased the Legendary Edition, not for the flaming helmet, and not for the statue, but for 'the whole Halo package.' Does my Spartan's head burn in multiplayer? Yes, it does, and it shouldn't bother you in the slightest. Why does anyone care about another player's appearance in multiplayer? The flaming helmet was BUNGIE'S idea to give players who purchased the full package an exclusive armor effect. Don't chastise other players for something they deserve and paid for, it's ridiculous. Also, as far as people thinking the flaming helmet makes for an easier target, it doesn't. Having flames on my helmet hasn't stopped me from kicking ass in free-for-all, and it didn't stop the development team in Halo 3 either.

  • I was going to post a sensible, well thought out, logical reply, but then I re-read the OP's post. Conclusion: He's either a troll or a flamer. I'm gonna go with a bit of both.

  • I am getting the Legendary edition for the Flames and all the other thing that go with it. I think the flames look awesome and they, along with all the other stuff,are well worth the $150. I would pay for flames in Halo 3. You say it will be a problem because everyone will have flames, but you are so wrong. The other effects like lighting and the green fog will be much worse than the flames so you should complain about those and not flames. [Edited on 07.30.2010 7:31 AM PDT]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] xSSx COTTLE I agree.. Loads if people are getting it to look 'unique' but there not going to be.. I cancled my Legadary Pre-Order.. £100 extra for flames on your head.. No thanks im good with my investmants..[/quote] But then again, your the person who would buy it for the flames only. It's not £100 for the flames. And in pounds the legendary is £94.99 which includes the game and statue, so how is it £100 extra for flames? You probably didn't even pre-order shiz. Dumbass. [Edited on 07.30.2010 7:23 AM PDT]

  • There is all kinds of armor effects. Everyone wont want to use the flaming helmet because they will want to be individual. Soon people with flaming heads will be classified as N00Bs im sure. There will be armor effects just as cool as flamig helmets.
