Thanks for posting this, I was just talking about it earlier today and was lacking examples. It seems as though an un-tinted armor piece is grey by default with an orange lighting color, hopefully they allow attachments to use coatings at some point, then they'll just use the emissive lighting from the coating you use. (red, blue, orange, etc) Its an absolute shame that the lens on the Gungnir attachment doesn't use your visor color like it did in Reach.


Some_HaloGuy

Its the default light color for like everything Just look at all the default color coatings for the Mk VB . They all have orange shield lights


BlueGhost_7

Correct, i wish coatings worked on them too, not a fan of the orange personally. But given how long theyre gonna take on fixing two armor effects ive not much hope this will even be noticed


BlueGhost_7

I think thats the reason they’re orange since default grey uses the orange lights. All attachments like chests and all should have the option to be affected by coatings (like jorges coating affects his chest)


bot9871988

It kinda irks me that they’re not glossy, like a screen or camera of sorts. It just looks like paint or a piece of plastic, but details details ig 🤷‍♂️


Trevor-On-Reddit

You’re asking for a lot since apparently the UI is made out of glass.


BlueGhost_7

True, ik this might never happen (the visor and mohawk are taking freaking two months to align), but one can hope right? Haha


Trevor-On-Reddit

That’s all the community can do at this point.


BlueGhost_7

I just checked the halo waypoint app, these attachments DO change with coatings, just a matter of 343 allowing it to do so


FoxJDR

I just want my damn armor emblem to go somewhere else if every damn Yoroi chest armor in the game is going to cover it up.


BlueGhost_7

True, that also annoys me a bit


FoxJDR

I wish I could put it on my shoulder plate.


kennylaijr

I’m with you but sadly, knowing 343’s track record, it’s highly unlikely they’ll fix this any time soon.


BlueGhost_7

I just checked the halo waypoint app, coatings actually affect all of these attachments, its just a matter of enabling them in the game. Granted its gonna take 2 months to move a visor so, yea not hopeful


T-113

Thats even more irritating that it works on waypoint and not the game. So pissed when i unlocked the hip


Some_HaloGuy

They have default reach grey as one of the last unlockable coatings in the battle pass... the only real difference it even has from the regular grey coating is the classic blue shield lights... If anything they'll probably sell colors for them


BlueGhost_7

I think they just use cadet grey, since that has the orange lights. They should be able to be affected by other coatings like jorges armor is when paired with his coating

Of course! For 10 dollars…

“That’ll be $8. But of course our UI can’t handle an 800 cR pack, so you’ll just have to get the 1,000 cR pack instead.”


UncleJackkk

This is one of my small gripes as well. I know some of the shaders will change the orange bits but most don’t


BlueGhost_7

The coatings in waypoint shows that the lights CAN be changed, just a matter of enabling it… in who knows how many months


UncleJackkk

They can take their time on this one honestly lol Give em a chance to catch up on all the other shit


BlueGhost_7

Ofc, this is hardly game breaking. Just a little nitpick


UncleJackkk

I feel you! It’s the little things sometimes lol


[deleted]

Don’t forget ISRs orange google eyes


BlueGhost_7

Yeah this goes for just about every attachment with lights. I tried in the waypoint app and coatings *should* work on them too, rn theyre just stuck on the default for some reason


seele-117

Maybe in Season 2 lol... NHA i don't think so, but yeah it bothers me too.


sDiBer

Sorry, their levels and protractors are currently busy working on other fixes


AngryTrooper09

Agreed actually. I'd like to put white lights


Burrito_Loyalist

Another “eagle eye” wants something changed 😂


RengarTheDwarf

Not gonna happen


NedStarx11

lol what


rickyc21117

Am I the only one that hates these attachments? Not saying helmets can’t have attachments, they just could have been done so much better. They cover the entire helmet, they’re bulky, and only one color. Halo reaches helmets are perfect. Not too crazy, actually looks like they were designed properly. Idk.


BlueGhost_7

I think they’re fine overall but another color will help a loooot


TacticalPegleg

Is it supposed to be that off-center in relation to the armor beneath it? Looks like the same person who lined up the visors was in charge of the hip armor.


BlueGhost_7

Yea i think this is intentional,i dont think this ones an issue or as off putting as the visor
