All players who have the option enabled will see the new skins. Toggling this to disabled will only show the original Halo: CE weapons, vehicles, and visors for the player on their machine regardless of what option the other players have set. It is called New Skins and is enabled by default. In the event a player does not like the look of the new skins, we have added a new option to the Gameplay tab that allows people to opt out of seeing the new skins. You touched on this earlier, but can you explain a little bit what that option will do for players in game? Some people in the flight have recognized an option that toggles on and off for skins. ago I grinded all my rank and armor in campaign, so Ill never see armor with updated graphics in MCC. ago that helmet b looking real good too tho 78 level 1 If this vehicle is exited, it will retain the look of that skin until a player with a different skin enters the driver’s seat, in which case it changes to the custom skin that player has set. The gold visor looks so damn amazing in Reach 47 comments 99 Upvoted Log in or sign up to leave a comment Log In Sign Up Sort by: best level 1 The way these skins will work is that when a player enters the driver seat of the vehicle that has a custom skin, the vehicle will change its looks to match that skin and other players will see this as well. Even the default skins will be enhanced in Halo: CE. Players will now be able to customize the look of both UNSC and Covenant vehicles. If this weapon is dropped, it will retain the look of that skin until a player with a different skin picks it up, in which case it changes to the custom skin that player has set. The way these skins will work is that when a player picks up a weapon that has a custom weapon skin, the weapon will change its looks to match that skin and other players will see this as well.

Players will now be able to customize the look of both UNSC and Covenant weapons. When a custom visor is selected, it will always show to other players if the option to enable new skins is turned on. This visor color change will not affect any first person HUDs to keep the look of the original game intact. When other players see you in the match, they will be able to see your new custom visor color. To this end, we’re including a settings option that will allow players to toggle skins on or off (which will determine if you see the legacy classic content when playing MP or see other Spartans rocking a new visor treatment). We’re excited to be able to update classic content with new coats of paint but we also know some players may prefer keeping everything the way it originally was. Launching along with Halo 3 is an all-new customization system for Halo: CE multiplayer.

I really hope something shifts before then, but if not, I guess we’ll just have to concentrate on having fun while playing, and trying to ignore the unrewarding grind system currently in place.įollow me on Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. This current season lasts until May 2022, so that would be half a year under this current system if no changes are made. But even now, there’s a special reward for completing all weekly challenges, so players feel like they have to engage with the current system, lest they miss some cool cosmetic (this week, a gold visor). Perhaps this will start to feel a little better as XP boosts are unlocked, and things like events or double XP weekends start. I can’t think of another game in this genre that has a system this limited in XP in place. It’s obviously frustrating to throw up a 20 kill game and potentially get the same amount of progress as someone with 3 kills. It often doesn’t feel like you’re making progress, because if you’re not in X mode with Y weapon available you may have literally zero things to accomplish in a match other than getting one of two match completions for a daily challenge. But I don’t think their optimism here was well-placed, as surprise, everyone still hates the challenge-only system. So in short, they said they weren’t changing anything by launch, but they would evolve the system in the future. "Looking further ahead beyond launch, we expect these systems to evolve in direct partnership with player feedback." "While we understand the community's feedback around wanting a steady drip of match XP and more ways to earn XP for the Battle Pass, we are optimistic that the system available at launch will give players adequate means of continually having something to accomplish and a means to progress," 343 said. Here’s what they said back when the technical flights were happening: Again, 343 already has taken feedback on this, and they say they’re working on improving the system.
