*In ''Halo: Reach'', The description for the silver visor is a reference to [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s, who are frequently associated with the phrase "feet first into hell". In ''[[Halo 2]]'', ODSTs wore helmets with dark blue visors. However, in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' and ''Halo: Reach'', most ODSTs wore helmets with blue-grey visors, while [[Veronica Dare]] wore a Recon helmet with a gold visor. There is evidence to suggest ODST visors do change color depending on the amount of light in their current environment, as they can be seen as being a very light silver in shadows or at night time, a light-dark blue in locations with the sun shining and completely black in areas with very bright light, such as the desert. Silver was most likely chosen to represent the ODSTs because their visor only turns that color in the dark, which is the Helljumpers' preferred method of working.

*In ''Halo: Reach'', The [[GUNGNIR]] helmet has no visor to speak of; instead, the customization changes the color of the helmet's camera lens.
*In ''Halo: Reach'', the [[GUNGNIR]] helmet has no external visor plate. Instead, customization changes the color of the helmet's camera lens.
*In ''Halo: Reach'', Changing the visor color of the Haunted helmet will instead change the color of the skull inside it.
