I used to use an Elite as character, because elites are cool, look that hump! And because is a little bit harder to hit them a headshot (at least I think so). But I noticed that covies can't go left-right-left-rigt fastly, you know, dodging sniper bullets, helping you aiming...
So I changed to a Spartan, now I can move leterally faster than with the elite.

Hehe, now I'm wrong, elites have more chance to be hitten by a sniper bullet, due to their BIG head, BIG head... Lol
But try going right-left-rigt-left with an elite, then with a spartan, I did notice the difference, spartans are faster doing that.

I've been using Elites lately because I like the sounds they make when they get shot. It is pretty funny to hear them growl. I haven't been doing any worse than I normally do, so it doesn't seem to matter.

  • 06.01.2007 7:47 PM PDT

I play as an Elite. There is not enough difference between the two models to care which one you play as.

I'll leave it at that.

Elites look like something a 12 year old kid would want to play as, and thats what most of the elite population is.

Spartan here.

I am getting sick of people badmouthing elites just because they are aliens, why does the fact that they are not human mean that they are all 12?

I play as an elite because they are awesome, I am not 12 years old, I dont talk in 1337, and I dont play 50 cent outloud in the middle of matches

Elites ARE worse than Spartans. Spartans have the sword advantage over Elites, which makes them worse. Now you STFU.

I used to play as an elite, but I changed colors around and the elite didn't look as cool as the spartan would in my new colors so I dropped the elite. I think I would play as an elite more often if they actually stood up straight like they do sometimes in the campaign and not be hunched over all the time.

That advantage is half a step at most. The latency in most games makes it unnoticable. I played a sword game with about 10 spartans last night and came in second (I suck with the sword anyway). Also, the advantage goes away if the elite is jumping.

A big part to success in Halo 3 or and Halo game is not getting frustrated when you feel you've been killed unjustly. Stay solid, and realize that its easier for you to come back when the other guys cant control their anger and frustration. Its hard to aim when your an emotional wreck :)

I play as a spartan, only because I see how killing an elite is way easier. On Ascension, more than all the other maps, people like to peek around corners. And when I see an Elites shoulder sticking out, I shoot at it, and get the kill, even if on their screen their still behind the wall. They have bigger feet too which are easy to shoot at. Its little things like those small details that make it easier to kill them. I would love to play as one, but I see the downfall of it.

Play in your world get PWN'd in mine!

I just like being a spartan! W00T!

Onyx pre-season! That's all that matters.

I prefer Spartan. The elite just seems to slow me down reaction time just because of the purplish HUD destrating me. Elites also seem to make bigger targets and easier no-scope dummies more than anything else. But I agree that many of the Xbox Live community are elites but I still stick with the blue HUDed Saprten... also he was the original guy in Halo and would PWN the -blam- outa those Elite -blam-.
