Search the File Archive, you'll find plenty of foam templates for armor from pretty much every game that came out.

The majority are for paper but if you do a search in the archives, you can find all of the foam templates.

You could also take one of the 3d models and make your own too, if you're good with a 3d editor.

There are many foam files as well, Pretzel made by himself A WHOLE DAMN LOT files for foam.
You can seriously find many armors and stuff for foam, if not most.
But, Pretzel covered most of the Halo 4 and even quite few Halo 5 armors himself, and since Halo 5 continues the Halo 4 armors... yah.

Only real differense is you don't need the flaps for foam. Some pieces are not even needed from paper template as you can use the thickness of foam for those. So yes you can use paper templates to create foam armor, just constantly consult the pepakura software as you progress. Usually templates that are made specificly for foam have large smooth pieces and tend to be less detailted to their paper counterparts. Foam has to be cut into a angle rather, unlike paper that can be folded.
Just for referense, I made this halo reach jetpack in the picture out of foam from the paper templates.
Foam definitely is different from paper. If you have enough experience you can just look at a paper template and see which pieces need to be thrown out, and if you're even better you can make your own patterns. Just make sure to get CLEAN CUTS!!! Clean cuts are the seeds of success
