[Locked] Achilles armor permanently ruined Halo 5 for me

Troll wanting attention? Or disgruntled about getting wrecked by someone with the armor? I hope we do get more stuff like Achilles in Infinite. Unlocking the armor and helmet with a large company was a great journey and I got to play with some awesome people along the way. And, given how earned rewards are something of a rarity now, it will be fun to unlock stuff like it.

Why do you hate it so much? I can understand you not liking it but why would it ruin the game for you seeing as you can still equip whatever armor you prefer?

1. It is a failed recreation of ancient Greek armor. The visor looks too thin, and I thought Venator was bad enough. The armor as a whole takes hideousness to a whole new level, and its fanbase is also atrocious!
2. Way too many people wear it, even after knowing there are far better armors out there.
3. I have played too many multiplayer matches where at least one player was wearing Achilles, and the match did not end well.

And to the people who call me a "troll", your words mean nothing. You are still just as much part of the problem by allowing 343 to retain the Achilles armor in Halo Infinite, which I have already stated I am NOT getting, and I have remained fully adamant about that.

It absolutely sickens me that I see this horrendous armor everywhere in this game! It does NOT look like anything special or cool, it is absolutely hideous and overrated on immeasurable levels! It is a completely failed recreation of ancient Greek armor and disgraces its namesake hero. I can't even go into an arena or Warzone match or custom game anymore without seeing at least one person wearing this armor. For heaven sakes, please, Halo 5 players, wear an actually decent armor like Centurion, Vigilant, Indomitable, Mark IV GEN1, etc.! NOT the awful armors like Seeker, Timmy, Tracer, and especially Achilles!

If the Achilles armor makes it into Halo MCC or heaven forbid, Halo Infinite, I will NO longer be playing Halo again. 343 has made a fatal mistake by introducing this armor to the game.

Seriously who cares if people wear armors you dont like. They dont effect you at all. Thats like passing some one on the freeway and telling them to change their car because you dont think it looks cool by your standards. It has nothing to do with you and youll probably never see that person ever again. I could go on rant saying mixing Halo 5 helmets with Halo Reach armor looks like an abomination but I wont because thats some peoples preference and Ill just have to deal with it even if I dont like it. I wear timmy helmet and achillies so I guess youll be really mad at me. Ya know I was thinking about changing my armor set back to Gungir and mark 5 delta but after reading this post imma keep it Achilles and timmy. Also your definition of "decent armors" might mean ugly and horrendous to other folks,

Just for the record, I fully support you going back to the Achilles armor!! Congratulations good sir!! And wear it proudly with honor, I hope to one day attain such hardware, and wear it with distinction!!

Thank you kind sir! I greatly appreciate your kindness and positivity! I too shall hope you acquire the Achilles armor! And when you do wear it with pride!

If all you want to wear is Achilles, don't do it for long because you are intentionally denying yourself access to many other great armors in the game. You might as well go back to wearing Recruit now. And yes, my experiences have shown that multiplayer games tend to go wrong once someone shows up in Achilles armor. Which is why I won't touch social or ranked arena or Warzone anymore. Finally, to the people having a problem with me hating the Achilles armor for the hideously overhyped monstrosity that it really is, congratulations, you are still just as much part of the problem! Your words are not affecting me, and they are making you look even worse.
