*The ''Icarus'' body armor was the only customization option that was banned from use in the Halo World Championship 2017 due to various audio and visual issues with said body armor piece; when the body armor is used, the stabilization jets make no noise when stabilizing mid-air, the player's ground pound wind up is noticeably very quiet, and that the player's secondary weapon would not be shown slung onto a player's back.<ref name="glitch">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D96GmOwu8U '''YouTube''' - ''Halo 5 - Icarus Armor Glitch That Is Banned?!'']</ref> However, using the helmet is still allowed.<ref name="icarusban">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/icarus-armor-update '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Icarus Armor Update'']</ref> | |||
