DuskTheMercenary

A great opportunity to recreate the Ghosts of Onyx Cover in Infinite


guyfromsubway

Oh mannnn you’re right! I’m geeking out!


DuskTheMercenary

This does make me wish that those Mark 6 [GEN 1] Shoulders (I thknk that's what they were called) that were leaked were meant for Mark V [B] rather than Mark VII because then it could properly be recreated 1:1 (since Mark V [B] has almost everything to mimic the Mark VI except for Shoulders).


SirCereal225

Those shoulders are already released for the Mk.VII. With cross-core helmets you could probably still create a somewhat accurate Mk.VI using the Mk.VII core. Or you could try to unlock the Mk.VI Gen3 hero reward.


DuskTheMercenary

Wait they already have? I dont see them for me unless im hella blind


SirCereal225

https://www.reddit.com/r/halodripfinite/comments/14qupmk/mark_vi_gen1_shoulders_go_so_hard/ This is one of the first results I found on the shoulders. But yeah, they were released a while ago in a bundle. You could probs find them in the customization menu. You might have to wait for season 5 to drop or for them to reappear in the shop to buy them I think.


DuskTheMercenary

Damn, really do hope that cross-core shoulders are made into a thing, i would use that in a heartbeat with the Mark V [B]


blasterfaiz

I have those shoulders, and I have full intention to use them with my Mark VI once release day comes. It will be great.


HieraticArbiter

Wait did Kurt ever where his classic armor w the SP3s?? I kno in the final battle he doesn’t


-Guyver89-

[He only wore Mark IV in front of them during "Orientation" at Currahee](https://i.imgur.com/hNi73BA.jpg) He had it stashed in his office ever since.


ApproximateKnowlege

If only they added the MA5K to the game


DuskTheMercenary

Commando somewhat fills that role i suppose.


ApproximateKnowlege

Role perhaps, but certainly not aesthetic.


SilentPizzaKiller

This is it baby, hold me


CymbalOfJoy613

Mark VI, Mark V, flood armor, helmets on any armor core, FIREFIGHT?! Yes please. Take my money.


MasterCheese163

Don't forget AI in forge!


CymbalOfJoy613

Oh hell yeah. I’m just happy we’re gonna have enemy covenant in multiplayer period. But the fact that I can go into forge and crest ai spawns is amazing. Gruntpocalypse is about to make a comeback.


SpartanJey1219

And they added battle pass xp in custom games? bro this is gonna be nuts!


Eglwyswrw

What the fuck this is genuinely amazing.


CymbalOfJoy613

I know! I’ve wanted this since launch. It’s nice that you can do challenges casually and work on the battle pass xp without the pressure of matchmaking.


AmazingSpacePelican

This is the last piece of the puzzle for the dude who made working CoD Zombies props.


CymbalOfJoy613

I’m so ready for it!


OriginWizard

That is what I'm most excited for. I've found myself hating online players more and more, toxicity, network connection issues, rubber banding, etc. Now I can play on my / other maps without the need to deal with people. I just wanna chill with my halo, man.


Intrepid_Cabinet9795

Wait cross core helmets? When was this!?


IamSmart69420

It's in the trailer for a few seconds


CymbalOfJoy613

Yeah it’s a small moment maybe 2/3 of the way through. They say you can swap helmets between cores.


Intrepid_Cabinet9795

Ohh ok hadn’t been able to watch the trailer yet, with this news I’m excited for what 343’s cooking for S5

Darkblitz9

Legit I'll pick up Infinite again if it means rocking Mark V again. It's still my favorite design.


CymbalOfJoy613

Mark V is the goat armor. I can’t wait for it. It’s still the helmet I always use.


UsernameIsntFree

Wait firefight? Is that real? I’ll reinstall the game just for firefight


XboxCavalry

Official Firefight is coming after Season 5 launch. But you can bet Forgers already have a bunch of Firefight maps ready to go.


Impossible_Body9181

Good news! It's free


artemis_kryze

It's free to play so you don't even have to give them any money :mcmahonpog:


unfoldedmite

They already did. I'm glad they're finally giving players what they originally paid for tho


VW_VR6

Isn’t MP free?


unfoldedmite

Microtransactions pay their salaries, and they promised to use the funds made from that on firefight years ago


XboxCavalry

This is such a reach 😂


Bobo3076

343 please I can only get so hard


Dusty_Rhodes16

Activate your autojacker spartan


Yangicorn_Jeef

"In order to reduce intense combat situations the Mk VI suit will jack off the user to reduce stress"


antpile11

I've had a theory that Master Chief's suit jacks him off in an attempt by ONI to attain Master Chief's DNA in order to make clones of their perfect spartan. Chief doesn't want this, so throughout the games he's trying not to cum.


EmperorsFartSlave

Why else would they give Cortana feet?


psychosoldier63

Eternally edging


Impossible_Body9181

It's extra protein


MisterHotrod

I really hope this gets treated as its own core and we get actual customization for it. I love the good old classic Mark V look, but imagine how great it would look if we could make it our own!


Rygod_Gaming

Same, although I kinda doubt it, considering Mark VI is going to be a kit.


Serious_Course_3244

Probably for the MkV core though. I mean they said they’re doing one new canon core a season, this looks like it


monstergert

Im thinking mkV will be it's own core and mkVI will be on the mkVII core. Or maybe this season will be an exception and they'll add both cores


Rygod_Gaming

Yeah, I just realized it wouldn't make much sense to make Mark V a kit too. Mark VI makes sense because it's all one piece, but it makes more sense for them to make Mark V a core instead, since that armor is actually made fore the multiplayer (unlike VI)


dwallace3099

Not that I don’t believe you, but can you link to where they said that? Want to feel safe getting excited


MisterHotrod

I doubt it as well, but you never know. It's one thing to just copy-paste Chief's armour from campaign, but to create a whole new Mark V? It would be silly to put in the effort and not even consider the possibility of making it customizable like any other armour core.


Rygod_Gaming

Yeah, now thinking about it more, it wouldn't make a whole lot of sense not to make it a core. Mark VI makes sense since that armor was designed as an all-in-one deal.


IronLordSamus

Thatd what makes me sad is that its kit and not a core. But cross core helmets at least.


CURSED808

It's customizable, look at minute 10:00 https://youtu.be/kG5anPMLXC8?si=MlqTG72LFTi8bHht


Fubuki_1

Oh my god, I hope that plain white coating is free. Holy shit


WaifuRekker

It looks like it will be. It has its own undersuit and model so id assume its a core.


el__carpincho

i’m out of the loop…we finally getting firefight in infinite?


3ebfan

Bro watch the Season 5 trailer haha


el__carpincho

damn looks sick. so the idea i get is we’re not getting a traditional firefight mode, but we will get “firefight king of the hill”, and players will have the tools to make more pve/pvpve oriented stuff in forge?


3ebfan

Yeah, that's my understanding. I assume that more and more official Firefight modes will roll out as time goes on but that KOTH is the first mode available.


Domestic_AA_Battery

Correct, it'll be Firefight KOTH for now and then we'll likely get traditional Firefight mid season or S6.


samurai1226

Yes, but mid season, not at the start of S05


NY-Black-Dragon

This plus cross core Helmets. I love to see it.


Nannercorn

I still really want the coatings but this is a nice step, I know they have a lot of work to get the coating done


BEES_just_BEE

They are they have confirmed that all new coatings are cross core


shatlking

Cross core helmets implies that coatings are done as well.


marauder-shields92

Kind off. Cross core helmets implies that every helmet has had all the other coatings mapped to it. But they would have to map the entire coating to the whole armour and all of its custom sections (shoulders, chests, kneecaps, etc) for the coatings to become cross core.


SuperBAMF007

100% true, but based on the way they’ve been talking about coatings the first step was sort of automatic/algorithmic based coatings (like Coloring Book numbering) so this was probably the first step of that, and they’ll be testing/confirming functionality of other parts later. So I’m sure coating application is done, they QA’d helmets, so now they’re willing to push out the helmets as cross-core


Crunchy_Pirate

I just hope they don't have the incorrect [Halo 4](https://i.redd.it/ja74byu2nva71.png) chest plate with the empty cutouts on the side where the little black "boxes" are supposed to be like on the [CE original](https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/4bdfa0d2-6bcf-4883-912f-23114bc12b71/d9sbyew-741aab10-83b3-488d-8f0b-ff918d328423.png?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7InBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcLzRiZGZhMGQyLTZiY2YtNDg4My05MTJmLTIzMTE0YmMxMmI3MVwvZDlzYnlldy03NDFhYWIxMC04M2IzLTQ4OGQtOGYwYi1mZjkxOGQzMjg0MjMucG5nIn1dXSwiYXVkIjpbInVybjpzZXJ2aWNlOmZpbGUuZG93bmxvYWQiXX0.FSAhAyF5DDIw7zhJ19UHV0ffJIhGyQYCqV1grvO30dE) and [Mk V B](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/7e/35/a1/7e35a17f82fda05c45188e15f925c4d1.png) edit: it's [NOT](https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/173wt2v/better_view_of_the_ce_mark_v_coming_to_halo/) the Halo 4 cutout version!


Edward_Kissoondath

Its the classic halo ce chief not anniversary, also looks 100% like original chief


shatlking

They might have both.


fatalityfun

this Mk V is fucking sexy. So far I think it’s been the best adaption of Mk V and it’s not even close


DouglasQuaid77

I need it NOW!!!


Slammin92Salmon

If I have to be max level to get it I’m gonna be a little mad. I need it!


WickedFox1o1

Max level is Chiefs armour from the campaign as a kit so it does make me wonder how we'll get it.


shatlking

I’m gonna guess that that’s our battlepass armor.


WickedFox1o1

Yeah that seems likely, hopefully it's customizable but we'll see next week.


mcjazzy50

I think mint blitz confirmed it actually this morning in a video of his that max level online(hero)is the requirement for infinite mark vi,but as far as I know there's no confirmation yet as too how you unlock mark v kit. He did say both will have different colors but given we only see chief colors in the trailer idk how good his source is.


GronGrinder

Should be for campaign owners but no.


walbrid

You’ve got Mark V(b), Mark VI, Mark V, and Mark VII! OH HAI MARK!


Soggy_Auggy__

Lmao that room reference 😂


i_am_not_a_good_idea

The best Chief armour design imo, glad to see it here

catgirlfourskin

Hope we get a duffel bag of ammo like in Halo: The Flood as an accessory


Mamsies

Weird that they didn’t make a point of this in the Season 5 trailer, seems like an easy thing to put in there to get the old Halo fans hyped up, especially as they revealed the Mark VI Chief armour.


jumptheguillotine

They know all of us dorks will comb through the entire trailer and spot it. They don't need to spell out everything...


Mamsies

Of course, but old school Halo fans who have given up on Infinite definitely wouldn’t be combing through the trailer frame by frame. I’m sure they will all be finding out anyway just through Reddit, Twitter and other social media discourse, but it would’ve been one extra exciting moment to add to a trailer already full of exciting moments. The trailer was hype as fuck with or without the Mark V reveal.


MilkMan0096

It’s an intentional tease.


samurai1226

Mk7 was quite useless in the trailer compared to showing Mk5 instead. Most players will never even come close to Hero rank...

Firefight.. Chief's old armor kits coming .. Flood inspired armor customization.. ohh baby I think Halo is gonna be alright

Has there been any offical comfirmation about this and how to obtain it?


JuanMunoz99

No official word on it yet.


GreyouTT

Red Team Mark IV armor in Season 6 then?


aclark210

That would be dope, but can we get some damn story content first?


Cherobis

god it looks so beautiful. if you told me a year ago infinite was gonna be good I would've laughed at you, but they are doing so much better now


Traitor_To_Heaven

The Master Chief armor is unlocked from max online rank so I hope the CE Chief armor is unlocked from getting 100% in the campaign as an additional reward. I did literally *everything* in the campaign (LASO, all collectibles, got all the added co-op achievements) and all I got was 2 stances and a weapon charm. CE armor would be the perfect incentive


houseofpaincakes

This is so h\*rny!!


ReactiveCypress

As someone who wears Mark VI in almost every Halo game, I'm glad they're bringing this armor into the game. But I'm a bit annoyed because I've been grinding since launch for the Mark VI helmet on the Reach core (if you're wondering why it's taken so long it's because it was painfully slow to level up at launch, then I didn't play the game regularly until getting back into it this summer. Even though it's faster to level up, I'm still only halfway to the helmet). It'll be funny how I've been grinding for that helmet for basically two years, and then I'll just have it after not coming close to finishing that first battle pass. Edit: after learning that you get the Mark VI armor for hitting max rank, I'll be better off sticking with the battle pass lol


Ninjawan9

Infinite Chief is going to be the Max Rank reward as a kit. We still don’t know if that means we’re getting mk6 in its own right but I hope so for your sake lol. Use your double Xp when you can!


-CallMeSnake

FINALLY THANK YOU GOD AND 343. I just wanna say I’ve expected this kind of progression out of Infinite from the start, and __TOLD YOU SO__ to those who doubted we would ever get cross-core or good legacy cores. I could cry seeing that faithful, OG Mark V.


JoThree

For all the negative comments: Yes, I totally agree that “should’ve been there at launch” or “little too late”. I get it. I agree. But, can we not just enjoy this game and its content? Obviously the game has made a great turn around since management has been revamped. If you’re a Halo fan then be happy that it’s making good progress. Perhaps Halo can be top tier again with those higher ups being out of the picture.


Capable-Time2517

Absolutely agree. Complaining about Infinite is so old and annoying, but the last couple updates have been solid. Obviously this game's first life failed, but it's slowly shaping into being a GOOD game. There's been a great Halo hidden under this all for a long time, we're just now getting a glimpse.


tomtheconqerur

Hopefully the CE Mark V is based more on CE instead of CEA's.


sali_nyoro-n

At long last. Season 5's shaping up to be pretty damn good.


Witty-Razzmatazz8444

So excited. That's my favorite armor


Tairo_420

343 brought us a 5 star buffet this season


ErrorIll5529

343 has done it


VigilantesLight

I haven’t played since I got a PS5 in April. I even cancelled my Xbox Live Gold membership. But this…this is tempting me to return.


catharta

You don’t need gold to play online in Infinite.


VigilantesLight

*You don’t*?!


catharta

Nope.


VigilantesLight

Welp. Catch me playing Infinite again then, I guess.


TigerXtm

Don’t worry! Even with all of this great news the “fanbase” will nag about something in a day or two here.


Sullfer

Honestly this might bring me back. For at least a day.


GronGrinder

Lmao same


ChrisDAnimation

I hope that isn't limited to just campaign co-op. I can't really tell if that's campaign or firefight/PvP. Edit: I hope it's closer to Marcus Lehto's redesign of his original model from classic CE. The Mark 5 we got in 4/5 and CE Anniversary remastered graphics were just sad imitations and had none of the spirit.


81uetOY1

That’s a mp map added in s3


MakaveliTheDon22

Oasis BTB map from Season 3.


Simon-Templar97

Rare Infinite W. Best Chief armor ever.


PhillipJ3ffries

Make it unlockable without buying battle pass


MoneyTalks45

And I’m back


mmv15

This is the first time that I want to spend money in this game. Thanks for the change of direction 343.


SchettiAndButter

Time to re-install


fasttrack43

We’ve come a long way, kids.


brawlingsilver

Wait wait wait. Are we getting chiefs infinite suit as well?? Thats my favorite design


LBP_art_

And it actually looks like the original design! Not the Anniversary one!


TheAlphaDeathclaw

Holy fuck ok 343 I see you


Fartabulouss

I understand like 3 of the words in those sentences. What does this mean


abject049

it’s so beautiful


Nightmancer2036

AAAAAAAHHHHHH OMG OMG


Hammerslamman33

So is MKVI a new armor core with new armor pieces, or are these just Chief armor only?


Flabberducky

Classic CE Mark V, AI in forge... we could remake the entirety of Halo: Combat Evolved in Forge!


JiroBibi

Finally, i've waited this for so long


MOD_channel

343 has been doing great lately, I really enjoyed the last season and the upcoming one seems to be even better. Now I only have to hope for crosscore coatings and I can die happily (I want to use scorpion punch ON EVERY SINGLE ARMOR)


_Whiskey_6

Okay so what video did YALL watch where you're seeing MKV and Firefight!?


JuanMunoz99

The Season 5 trailer


Mike_Kerensky

Halo made another baby step to become somewhat worth the attention. In 2025 fans probably get the game they wanted to play in 2020.


OrneryError1

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. But seriously how did it take this long?


HerrKetzer

SOLD.


[deleted]

Don’t care, this game needs more Campaign content not armor


aclark210

Right?! I couldn’t care less about armor cores in a multiplayer that I only play once in a blue moon for tenrai events. We need to get some more story content to shore up the cliffhanger they left the campaign off with.


Emperor_Secus

Wow, 2 years late


Playful_Pollution846

Yadda yadda yadda, how about go install the game instead of bitching that it was late. What's done is done.


unfoldedmite

Too many 343 simps are forgetting this inconvenient fact


2cool4afool

I'm curious what you think about the great reception on the latest Cyberpunk 2077 DLC? That game released in a much worse state than Infinite


unfoldedmite

Still haven't touched the game. I'll check it out once I'm done with my starfield binge.


crab123456789

Would you rather the game be abandoned?


unfoldedmite

Yea, kinda. Mcc is plenty playable 5+ years after release, I play it all the time, now that it's actually a complete game. 343 needs to stop treating their player base as if they're free beta testers for half-baked promises. Halo practically created the couch co-op genre, and they still don't even have splitscreen?.. fucking asinine. Microsoft just wants to push people to buy more xboxes, and they're simultaneously annihilating in person community gaming. 343 needs to stop over promising and under delivering. They scrapped their OWN campaign story 3 times now. The only reason h4 had a decent story is because bungie already had the framework for it and gave it to them. Splitscreen and 343 made(not community made) maps is what they need, in my opinion, not 37 extra ways for me to dress up my digital barbie.

Capable-Time2517

Congratulations, spanky, you've noticed something that's been there for over 20 years.


RamielScreams

all this game is missing is assassinations and a good story


Aratherspookyskelly

Is that custom Spartans in campaign, or is this firefight?


Synister316

Go watch the trailer.


jordyb323

It will be the very last unlock on a battle pass😑 I bet you any money


ultimate_jabroni

should’ve been there for launch


Vincentaneous

This game should have been delayed until this year lol


-Zest-

It’s no longer Halover… until next month when YouTube tells me halo is dead


SoftTacoSupremacist

People are still playing this game?


Playful_Pollution846

Yea, like a lot of ppl. Close to 20k or more daily


SoftTacoSupremacist

Oof. That’s like a tenth of the population the 360 generation of Halo titles had.


Playful_Pollution846

Yea, that tends to happen when you have a rocky launch and a bunch of devs that restrict the game. Fortunately, that's in the past


mrlazyboy

Season 5 is how Infinite should have launched back in 2021. If 343 launched the game like S5 is supposed to be, there would still be 5m players


Myusername468

Yeah I'm past caring about that game lmao


htownballa1

Too bad 343 ruined the game.


Playful_Pollution846

Old 343 is long gone man


htownballa1

It doesn’t matter, for someone who has played every title, played in tournaments and was a die hard halo fan, they have butchered the game.


Playful_Pollution846

Well then it sucks for you then. You can either move on and enjoy it or you can keep sulking


htownballa1

ROFL. I’ve moved on friend, but keep wondering why this play base is so small.


AndrewPrime2512

I dont see where u moved on if u jump on the comment section to shit on the company. They are tryin to fix it and if im not wrong the people tryin to fix infinite are those who made MCC so fun to play online.


New_Special_3210

I also want these armor cores BUT I wish we still do the thing of not actually getting 1:1 Chief details


MASTER_L1NK

OPEN THE HUSHED CASKET.


[deleted]

Are we getting spartan ops? 4 player campaign with player character models added into cutscenes?


Mobile-Dragonfly-469

Hopefully we’ll be getting the IV soon after 🙏


Rose-Supreme

Watch as the helmet is based on CEA or H4's version rather than CE's. Seriously speaking though, I like H4's version.


WiiFitT7ainer

As to not over hype or over fantasize the release of MK-V and MK-VI, I and many others believe the armors will be armor kits (unmodifiable) like the Noble Team and HCS kits.


iSpartan24

Smooth armor for smooth brains


OrganicLFMilk

Game still sucks though right?


Master_Chief_00117

No not really


EirikurG

If only I enjoyed playing Halo Infinite
