MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI: Difference between revisions

In ''Halo 4''<nowiki />'s campaign, John-117 wears his original Mark VI suit, though it is drastically different in appearance from its ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'' incarnations. This is because [[Cortana]] used [[Nanotechnology|nano-machines]] stored aboard the {{UNSCship|Forward Unto Dawn}} to both repair and upgrade the suit,<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjswoU39AOY ''The Science Behind The Halo Series'']</ref><ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/halo4/en-US#!halo-evolved/gameplay/31afe32b-0e07-45c0-9424-3adc6e1eadca '''Halo 4 Official Site''' - ''GAMEPLAY'']</ref> though the gash on the right side of the chest piece was not fixed. The "classic" Mark VI helmet, chest, shoulder, arm, and leg armor are available in the [[Infinity (mode)|''Infinity'' mode]] after completion of ''Halo 4's '' campaign on [[Legendary]] difficulty. Though the helmet is mostly unchanged from its ''Halo 3'' incarnation, the rest of the suit has received several aesthetic changes.<ref name="H4 classic"/><ref name="H4 classic 2"/><ref name="H4 classic 3"/><ref name="H4 classic 4"/><ref>[http://blogs.halo.xbox.com/Headlines/post/2012/09/05/The-Halo-Bulletin-9512.aspx '''Halo Waypoint''' ''The Halo Bulletin 09.05.12'']</ref> The ''[[Prologue]]'' cutscene erroneously shows all Spartans with John-117's upgraded armor, even during scenes in which the Mark IV or Mark V was canonically used. The reason for this is unknown, as models of the Mark VI armor were built into the game, and were only mildly different aesthetically from John's uniquely upgraded armor.
