I seriously think the jackals should be upgraded this time around, in halo they were simply weaker but more resiliant versions of the grunts.

I think the hunters. One shot kills?! a grunt can take more than that, come on they must be harder to kill this time round

Hunters for sure, they need to be severly upgraded. The only time they are a threat is in really close quarters and even then they are easy. Just side step and bam....dead.

You would think they would be smart enough to cover up their weak point...

Hunters definetly. They are supposed to be total bad-asses and they were just pathetic in Halo.

Nah: hunters are strong enough- remember, as a Spartan, you have faster reflexes, better agility, and increased strength. It'd be expected that you would be able to move around Hunters; that's why Bungie made Brutes.

Wow another thread with not much thought in mind. All races of Cpvenant will be better in Halo 2 because they will use cover, call for reinforcements, look for you, etc. If all that happens I don't think any enemies should be changed except for the Hunters, just maybe.

I agree they wont be changed that much physicly except new weapons availible and tool such as flashlights they will be harder because they are smarter the hunters though they should get a real make over. Does any one think that the alien that can flip over a warthog is the new hunter.

Didnt they say the warthog flippers were the secret race? The brutes have been in the open since last year.

I almost gagged when in the covenant primer they said that hunters were known for "tactical brilliace on the battlefield"

The thing about the hunters armor is it allows it to walk freely, and do its crouching deal when an enemy is around. It works pretty well, because the average human marine wouldn't be able to get behind a hunter fast enough to get a shot off, the MC of course...is.
