Apparently, in Halo 2 the elites will be able to climb on walls and hang from high spots. Sort of like the alien in the movie Alien. I read this in an old EGM. Thats awesome if ya ask me.

Lets just say that The Covenant will be a force to reckon with in Halo 2.

Thats gonna be so crazy.
You know how you like walk into those rooms in halo that are circles with like four windows. You have to get through to the other side door.
Now, instead of walking in and seeing a few guys walking around on the ground, youll walk in, in the dark, shining your light on the cieling. They see you, but you dont see them. Suddenly, a few drop down on your team and open fire. Wow.

I don't know if they can cling to ceilings. That might be a bit much in my humble opinion. I wouldn't mind a different creature that did that though... that would be awesome. Ceiling Clinging might be just the thing for some sort of flood oddity.

One thing I love is that the Elite's have had their aggressiveness amped up. They're going to melee much more often and with combination blows they're going to be scary. I also hope they'll use weapon combinations so that they'll come in with an overcharge blast and follow up with the carbine. I really hope that the elites, the special ops elites that is, can dual wield. I wouldn't want every elite to do it, just the occasional one.

Elites jumping around and climbing ladders sounds cools, but as for wall climbers? Yeah right. Elites are not freaking bugs. The whole wall climbing thing is more of a Stalker concept(my little new Covenant idea)

Bungie actually said the Elites will be a little easier to kill because you don't have to shoot them as much to drop their shields. But the added AI and stuff will balance it out pretty good. I heard covies can climb certain things but nothing like hang from ceilings or crazy stuff like that.

its not gonna be hanging from ceilings..gees..(lol someone watches Spider man too much)
They will probably be able to bounce off walls..jump on top of obstacles...sort of super agile.
but then again, I could be wrong.
Who knows....i guess we'll just have to wait till it comes out and we actually play it
