A video on ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'', [http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/featured/video/defiant-to-the-end/f2595044-7e26-4928-a24b-8e1a2db3ce45 "Defiant to the End"], depicts John-117 and other SPARTAN-II commandos in MJOLNIR Mark V armor. In this video, the only non-default piece of equipment that John-117 wears is the Mark V helmet. This directly contradicts his appearance in''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'' and Dr. Halsey's personal journal, as well as in the [[John-117 in cryo|cryo Easter egg]] in ''Halo: Reach''. | A video on ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'', [http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/featured/video/defiant-to-the-end/f2595044-7e26-4928-a24b-8e1a2db3ce45 "Defiant to the End"], depicts John-117 and other SPARTAN-II commandos in MJOLNIR Mark V armor.

During the early development stages of ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'', John-117 wore the first-generation Mark V armor seen in ''Halo: Reach''<nowiki/>'s armor permutations,<ref name="bts">[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/featured/video/bts-anniversary-campaign/8a902cd8-dc45-4a35-88ae-39ba04ba8a41 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''BTS: Anniversary Campaign'']</ref> though he had canonically already upgraded to the second-generation version. In the final game, he wears a second-generation suit, like he wears in the original game and in canon, which appears greatly different from the first-generation suit seen in ''Halo: Reach''. While this conflicts with his appearance in the cryo Easter egg from ''Halo: Reach'', his armor is not meant to be seen in any great detail in the Easter egg, making this discrepancy inconsequential. | During the early development stages of ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'', John-117 wore the first-generation Mark V armor seen in ''Halo: Reach''<nowiki/>'s armor permutations,<ref name="bts">[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/featured/video/bts-anniversary-campaign/8a902cd8-dc45-4a35-88ae-39ba04ba8a41 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''BTS: Anniversary Campaign'']</ref> though he had canonically already upgraded to the second-generation version.
