The Package (animated short): Difference between revisions

The presence to lights on armor in H4: FUD is a stylistic choice. It takes place in 2526, five years before the first shields. The armor clearly possesses no shields as shown when John protects Sully. The needle shard impacts on his armor, not a shield.

*[[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV]]<ref group="note">The Spartans' first-generation MJOLNIR armor appears to display an energy shield indicator on the HUD, which may be a misrepresented health bar. However, it is possible that these suits had been refitted with energy shielding technology, as MJOLNIR suits had been outfitted with prototype energy shields as early as [[2531]] and further experiments were attempted in [[2535]]. This would also explain why the Spartans wear obsolete MJOLNIR suits; by 2544, MJOLNIR had been upgraded to at least its third generation, so the older models may have been more conducive to energy shielding technology. This is supported by ''Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn'', in which the same suit possesses external shield emitters.</ref>
