ODSTs. Apparently they're tough crazy bastards. Do you think they'll have melee moves in halo2??

I'd love to see helljumpers beating elites to death.

Get up so I can hit you again!

That would be kinda bad and good in some ways. 1. What if you were shooting some elite close-range and a Helljumper came up and wacked you in the back because he was trying to get to the Elite. 2. The Helljumpers would be more likely to get killed by the Elite than for the Helljumper to kill it.

Good. 1. The ODSTs could work as a team to beat the heck outta an elite. Resulting in a dead Elite and no Marine casualties. 2. You could wound an Elite enough so that you could move on and a ODST would come and finish him off.

ODST's, aren't nearly strong enough to hurt and Elite. The Elite would squish him. Like a bug. Maybe agianst Grunts and jackals.

Elites are overrated. They're not as smart as the manual says they are.


I think it would be possible for a skilled ODST to take down an Elite's shields with his gun and then beat it to death while maneuvering out of the way of its own attacks.

Think how many hits it takes MC to take down an unsheilded Elite. Three or four. and MC is like 10x stronger than the ODSTs. I don't think it would work.

i'd love it if groups of say three or four ganged up on an elite and beat it to death putting the occasional round in too.

they certainly could (if they can) melee grunts and jackals.

one helljumper against an elite would be unfair, but a group of helljumpers would give the elite serious problems. and helljumpers are meant to be crazy, and pumped full of drugs and steroids (right?), i could imagine them trying/taking on elites.

perhaps they'll only melee when at close range and their clip of ammo has run out. hmm.

An ODST melee a Elite or Brute would be like a 8 year old punchin a grown man. Hurts a little, but nothing to complain about. Now, I would like to see a Marine get a Plasma sword, and See Elites run away yelling, NOOOOOOO.... and Brutes blindly charging in to get sliced in half (hopefully =)

Since when are the Elites the only Covenant in Halo 2 ?

I think a ODST could kick some Grunt or Jackal ass, but everything good has to come to an end, and the Elite would be the end of the ODST.

Helljumpers will give jackals and grunts problems.. But then marines with shotguns could give elites problems too so perhaps ODSTs will be a sought after ally in halo2, unlike halo1 where you barely tolerate the presence of marines.

i really want to hear more about helljumpers from the bungie updates.. Like how do they behave??
