It depends on when, and, where you preorder the game, I suggest you call a local GameStop and ask if store gives you the Recon redemption code upfront when you preorder the game at the store (not sure if the same applys for on-line buying) I also had the same question and I called Gamestop and asked if they would give me the Recon code upfront when I preordered the game and the guy said yes. =) (I'm not really sure if the same applys for other stores) (btw I live in North America)
Any preorder of Halo: Reach will get you the Recon Helmet for free use in Halo: Reach ONLY. If you preorder the Legendary Edition you will receive the Bungie flaming helmet.
Preorder it or buy it on launch day.
if you preorder reach, you gets lotsa goodies like extra armor and statues, and a kitten is saved if you preorder
that is really challenging must be a member in bungie or get all 7 vidmasters in halo 3 ODST that is halo 3 for halo reach you must preorder halo reach or buy the code at walmart or target or any kind of those stores
Its not the recon that you would get in normal halo 3, it's different, its more like mark VI than recon in halo 3.
If you preorder with Gamestop you get a set of armor exclusive with preordering.
To unlock Recon armor in Halo 3, you originally had to beat all of the VidMaster achievments, but the armor is now available to all players. To unlock the recon armor in Halo: Reach you had to pre-order the game and you would get a long (25 character) code for the recon armor DLC. To unlock the recon armor in Halo 4, you had to either pre-order the game or simply buy the armor with your in-game credits.
im not sure but i wouldnt think so well not in the campaign because its part of halo combat evolved but the multiplayer will have the halo reach engine and reach had the recon armor in it so anniversary might have but only in multiplayer
You can't, but if you have internet and a free gold membership trial,you can use the trial to get the recon armor, it does work for Halo Reach too.
recon armor
For now, no. Although, in the near future a new kind of armor might be introduced, much like Recon armor was in Halo 3.
you have to get xbox live,(you need to preorder halo reach!)first, go to the halo reach menu ,then press the middle of the controller ,then go to redeem code ,type in the code,when you are done go customize your person and enjoy!
