The thing is, you can still get the Ranger achievement by getting over 15000, and thats what it specifies if you haven't gotten the achievement.

Really, there has to be a reason why it specifies if you've gotten over 50,000 points. | ||
I think the fact that you need 50 000 points is because the level is very long and contain numerous enemies and vehicles, and the 15 000 maps don't contain enough enemies to achieve 50 000, and even if they did, many points would be lost due to dying, betrayal, ennemies being killed by teammates, etc...Beside, if anyone ever got Recon by this way, there would be evidence of it.[[User talk:SErgEantaEgis|SErgEantaEgis]] 20:44, July 26, 2010 (UTC) | |||

You know why? Because this is off of the June 2007 Gamepro magazine. It shows a red MJOLNIR armor, a blue MJOLNIR coming at the red one with an energy sword, the EVA armor to the side of the blue MJOLNIR, and barely visible right behind the blue MJOLNIR is this picture (obviously of the CQB). If you don't believe me, get the June issue of Gamepro and look right behind the blue Spartan, it looks like he's been put right on top of this armor. -- | You know why?

It's not "obviously" anything. I just pulled up both the wallpaper and the Quicktime C.Q.B., and there are some definite differences. When I first saw the wallpaper, I shrugged off this unknown armour as C.Q.B. too, until I looked closer when this article was made. Now, in comparison: the visors are different. The unknown appears to be a simple thin oval shape, unlike the "T" of the C.Q.B. It is possible that there's a shading issue, but it looks to me as if the unknown armour features a black outline around the visor, creating its own "T" shape. Also, the red on the helmet in the view given is in a zig-zag pattern not found on the C.Q.B. armour. C.Q.B. features no such markings. In addition, the helmets are shaped differently. The unknown armour helmet extends over the visor much like the original MJOLNIR helmet; the C.Q.B. helmet does not. Finally, in the wallpaper, the C.Q.B. has a definitely visible raised portion. The helmet of the unknown armour, on the other hand, appears entirely flush. --[[User:GhostXIII|Ghost]] 16:54, 12 July 2007 (UTC) | It's not "obviously" anything.

Armor is both online and offline, its on your halo memory I think, and any armor I get online is offline too. So try checking your armor again, and if that doesn't work go on LIVE, put the armor on, sign out of LIVE and remove it.

Alright, I am completely exosted from doing the vidmaster challenges. Was it worth it? No... I wear it online and what do I get? Players complaining about how they don't have it and want it. Then again, I was like this before. People who have recon are awesome, but people who wear it online are complete assholes. I would wear some of my other armor, but this variant is so cool!--[[Special:Contributions/174.3.9.125|174.3.9.125]] 19:59, November 4, 2009 (UTC) | |||
== HUD == | |||
My friends with recon armor tell me that the HUD is different for recon the same way the HUD is different between Elite and Spartans. Can anyone comfirm this, if so, I think it should be added to the article. -[[User:MKWRX|MKWRX]] | |||

== Crackdown 2? == | |||
Probably been noted already, and no, I ain't saying anyone stole it. Anyway, the first stage helmet in Crackdown 2 bears a marked resemblance to the recon helmet.

==Recon myths and lies on the Internet== | |||
It came to my attention while browsing the Internet and Youtube that there were many adds and videos about a "secret hack to get Recon" or "a secret skull that unlock Recon" or even "Buy Recon armor". Of course, all of this is BS. Should we mention these snake-oil videos and adds in the article? I was just wondering. | |||
:Better not to add fuel to the flames. Technically, a hack would work - the Recon permutation is just a file on the disk that is normally unavailable to normal players. hacking would access that file - it would also earn a swift and well-deserved crushing by the almighty banhammer. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 09:47, August 12, 2010 (UTC) | |||
== Requirements in Reach? == | |||
I know you have to preorder the game, but do you have to play it on the release date, or just preorder it? If you do have to play it on the release date, that needs to be added in the trivia section, or, just have a whole new section about it in Reach. [[User talk:623buc|623buc]] 18:22, August 22, 2010 (UTC) | |||
: I'm pretty sure you just pre-order the game, then within a certain amunt of time after the release date (probably a year) you have to redeem the code you are given, just like with the Sgt. Johnson Firefight skin.

==Recon Pre-order was a LIE!!!!== | |||
You can get Recon Helmet in the final game, Even without pre-ordering it, the Pre-order bonus was just a Hul(3), not the helmet, no, people will be able to have the Recon Helmet in Halo: Reach, I believe the Recon Helmet wo/Hul is 300,000 Credits, with the first hul being Unknown. [[User talk:John Yautja|John Yautja]] 04:49, September 22, 2010 (UTC) | |||
Does anyone know when, or how you get it the recon helmet without the pre-order attachment? Because I have seen many videos showing just plain recon helm in the armory. [[User talk:Tentacletornado|Tentacletornado]] 18:12, September 28, 2010 (UTC) | |||
There is no way to get base Recon unless you don't have XBL or have it disconnected. Those videos are people who modded the game --~[[User: Jman98|Jman]][[User Talk: Jman98|98]]~ 03:29, 13 November 2010 (EST) | |||
Only before the cap was lifted, but that was a while ago, you can get the base and first upgrade at Colonel. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 05:43, 15 November 2010 (EST) | |||
==Rename Proposal== | |||
If the Recon is compatible with Mark V and Mark VI, shouldn't it be just "MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/R variant"?

== Recon chest piece not in Reach? == | |||
Isn't Tactical Recon in its own right the Recon chest piece? If it is then shouldn't it be mentioned somewhere?--[[User talk:Theraptor92|Theraptor92]] 13:46, 22 May 2012 (EDT) | |||
:Actually, it's called the "Tactical'''<u>/</u>'''Recon" chest piece, which means it's a variant of the "Tactical" series of the armor, and not Recon. —[[User:Spartan331|<span style="color:silver;">S331</span>]] [[File:Bubbleshieldhud.svg|14px]]<sub>([[User talk:Spartan331|COM]] • [[Special:Contributions/Spartan331|Mission Log]] • [[UserProfile:Spartan331|Profile]])</sub> | |||
:I always thought it was wierd we organized them like that, the first word is usually just something that describes what the general use of that piece is, like "UA" is hardened and armoured pieces. "UA" wouldn't be something like Recon, CQB, etc, but more like (for weapons) the terms, assault rifle, SMG, pistol, etc. For example, the Beretta PX4 is a pistol version of the Beretta CX4 carbine. But if they were armour, they should go together as they're part of the same family. [[User talk:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] 01:21, 24 May 2012 (EDT) | |||
I get what Spartan 331 is saying but is it not possible that Tactical/Recon is in its own right a Recon chest piece? Sorry about this reply being months after that but sometimes things like this can be confusing. --[[User talk:Theraptor92|Theraptor92]] 20:14, 27 September 2012 (EDT) | |||
==Gen 3== | |||
Is there a Gen 3 form of the RECON armor or did they only make the Upgraded Gen 1 and 2 that was compatible with Gen 3. And similarary did they ever update the RECON into Mk vii? Or did they stop at Mk vi. [[User:Spartan Chin|Spartan Chin]] ([[User talk:Spartan Chin|talk]]) 18:07, December 10, 2024 (EST) | |||
not sure if this is how you update, but the recon armor was upgraded to fit the GEN3 platform. as well as the Trailblazer MJOLNIR armor was a successor to the recon armor not by Fumctionality, but also by appearance. | |||
