Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

I'll tell you that I don't think this belongs here.

Outside of that, there's enough differences in player models and their in-game performance (be it intentionally or not). Last thing we need now is another player model that doesn't "flow" with the others.

Halo 3 would benefit by just dropping the Elite model altogether, in my opinion.

Why do you think that? Whats the big deal with someone using an elite? Don't give me the hit box lecture either, it's been fixed

My thoughts exactly. I heard many complaints about the Elites before, but Team SWAT really opened my eyes to the problems. Elites are a completely different shape, and so their hitboxes will be arranged differently, even if they are the same size. In the case of Team SWAT, this seems to be causing a lot of problems. Even more variation will only cause more frustration.

Don't even go there. Aside from it looking cool, an Elite model has certain advantages over the Spartan model--be it purely psychological or maybe even actually physical. For example, it's next to impossible to hit an Elite with a headshot from behind. I suspect that the virtual "skeleton" of an Elite is the same as that of a Spartan, but the fact that it's difficult to do indicates that people subconsciously put insufficient effort into it, expecting that they will fail.

And if the virtual structure of Elites and Spartans is indeed different, then that's all the more reason to keep them.

i thought it would be interesting to have more than just spartans and elites as playable skins on Multiplayer (even though they'd have the same amount of shields). The Flood would be an awesome race for Multiplayer. anyways tell me what you think
