I only said elites because Grunts die before they use 5 rounds anyway.

that would be scary if an elite went and picked up a shotgun that was laying around and started blasting you with it

4 people have voted, but only one has replyed. "Tvo" what do you mean??? In multiplayer, you can do it normally. In SP, will the A.I. be advanced enough to include this feature? That's my Question.

Sorry, I'm a slow typer. Yeah, or a really determined elite that swapped for a needler and started shooting really close, taking MC with him!!!

i hope the AI will be good enough to allow it, and it would be alot more of a challenge to face an elite with a rocket launcher than with a needler

think about how cool it could be: an elite comes out of a doorway your standing there with an smg and you hurl a grenade at him all hes holding is an energy sword so he leapsout of the way of the explosion and picks up a needler and starts firing on you. (sorry its not a more creative scenario im really tired)

SB-117

Perhaps bungie should make the AI adapt and choose their weapons. For instance if they are using a sniper rifle or something and you come at them with a shotgun they should be able to think and switch for a better counter weapon like a needler or something .Bungie say their AI is gonna be good so I think this might be a good inclusion.

I doubt it, in the books it states that even when the covenant are in dire straights and have the option to use human weponary to save them selves they would rather fight hand to hand

Idiot. Crude-or ( spelling? ) I thought you were directing your statement at me when I said, "If a grunt swapped his pistol for a snipers rifle." Because I didn't say what race.

Are the brutes in the Covenant in Halo or are they a new race that join during the books with takes place after Halo and before Halo 2. So does anyone know this?

The Master Chief says that he had seen covenant rather fight hand to hand than use human weapons laying around

but he did say jackals, so i suppose elites would probably have more inititive and use an inferior human weapon, so ill just drop it

Dam the Covenant must be dumbasses then they probably think Humans have cooties!! LoL But if it was up to me I rather grab a nearest gun and fight of bust out a Plasma Sword and fight but Hand to Hand screw that. But it would be funny to box a Grunt or Elite!! And in the first level in Halo 1 when u have nothing to fight with Master Cheif should atleast punch and kick I would he is a killer Marine!! He should box and snap a neck or something. But that is just me what do u guys think about that?!

Only when your ammo's run out. Now some idiot will say, "Why don't we just use a knife?"

No Master Cheif should just punch like when he has no guns or anything like in the first level in halo 1 when he was running to the Bridge.

What he means is relying on your enemy to save your own skin. Isn't that right Krundor??? Just couldn't find the words.......

I've continued this post. Like HTES does with that, "there should be a anti aircraft gun and a human banshee."
