If you don't want to spend money you can use Microsoft Rewards to get the armour :)

I'm not going to pay that much money for an armor kit. I don't even think I'd spend that for a fully customizable set.

[Saigaiii]

It would have cool if the bundle had weapon models for each weapon in the art style of combat evolved

[CargoShorts]

I think 343 knew exactly what they were doing with this one. They knew the Mark V armor would induce PEAK levels of fomo and that would allow them to price it as high as possible, full well knowing it’s still a terrible value comparatively. Leaves a lot of us, myself included, torn cause while I loveeee the classic armor and Mark VI I don’t know if I can stomach $22 for it based on principle alone

[CombatDevolvd]

I was fully prepared to pay $10 for this…but $22??? There’s just no way 😢

[mjolnrrr]

I think the blue flame needs to be brought back as a legendary campaign reward and maybe introduce a new banished flavored red flame helmet effect for LASO, the flames are classic to halo but otherwise a charm with a bundle of skulls for LASO or maybe a brute skull for a change... so many possibilities but 343 really chose none

[proPRODUCTUONS]

A LASO reward would make up for a lot. I completed LASO a few days after the campaign was released so it would be fantastic but it's a pipe dream.

[Aurik-Kal-Durin]

We should be able to customize the helmet on both Infinite Mark VI & Combat Evolved Mark V. What with cross-core helmets being such a big feature of Season 5, I don't understand how this isn't already a thing. The helmets from both armor kits should also be usable in regular customization.

[colinp]

Armour from legacy games should be unlockable through gameplay in campaign or multiplayer - or at most the battlepass. The shop should be for 343's own designs.

[RednekGamurz]

It's a beautiful recreation of the CE Mark V. The art team knocked it out of the park. With that said, $20 for a kit, 2 coatings, and a visor is ridiculous, especially when it's been found that bots can use some of the pieces of the kit with no restrictions. This should've been a reward for completing the campaign on Legendary or LASO instead, or maybe as a reward for hitting max rank in MCC or something (since unlike Halo 5, I don't think there's a reward in Infinite or MCC for hitting max rank in MCC). It's just silly that you can buy Halo CE for less money than what they're asking for for the armor in Infinite. Hell, the entirety of MCC itself often goes on sale for about as much as this armor kit goes for.

So 3 years after the game launched we finally get an opportunity to spend money to get a cosmetic that should arguably be the starting default armor for everyone. And on top of that, it costs more than entire map packs used to back in the day.

Lol

[Asukol]

I bought it and immediately felt buyers remorse, only because I’m not big on these types of micro transactions. I rarely pay for cosmetics, and definitely have never paid so much. But my nostalgia was too strong.

[markdevonport]

Microsoft trying to capitalize off of nostalgia.

Real original.

[Aldo-lqfd]

Gorgeous model, props to the artists. It also looks fantastic with the different coatings and visors.
I don't think I can justify spending what they're asking for it, though.

[LilReignOfficial]

Remy you have been exceptional in regards to keeping 343 aware of bugs, general functionality, direction, and overall quality of the game. Thank you for everything you do. The community appreciates you.

[TheSilverWolf]

I have a feeling this and flood were modeled and intended to be cores and changed last minute. They would have so much more potential as cores but instead they were all sold at $22. For $22 I expected Mark V to include classic weapon models :/

[markopolo]

Stunning looking kit, no way I’m paying that for it though.

[corgandco]

Yeah it looks great and all but I'm never gonna pay $22 for an armor set thats ridiculous

[specimendelta]

Any time something is locked only behind a paywall, I pretty much just forget it even exists

[LemonConsumption]

Here’s my ideas for some campaign completion rewards

Complete campaign: CE styled AR weapon model
Legendary: CE magnum styled sidekick model
LASO: reflective Chrome armor coating
Or….THAT BLUE HYDRA COATING THATS BEEN SITTING IN THE MENU FOR 2 YEARS AND STILL HASNT BEEN RELEASED

As for my thoughts on the mkV, I couldn’t resist and bought it. Mostly to make myself feel better since I’m still less than halfway to unlocking the mk6
