"I can accept failure, everyone fails at something, but I can't accept not trying." - M. Jordan

I already am thinking a level like New Mombasa is going to be very difficult. It has that one part where you run into the brutes and they rip your driver out like he is a stuffed teddy bear. I mean these thing are no Hunters, they aren't slow and stuiped and probably don't have a spot in their back where you can shoot one pistol shot and end their life. Does anyone think that Bungie would put a easy spot on a brute where one well aimed bullit from the battle rifle will kill it instantly?

I sure as hell hope not. All I know is that the Master Chief in First Strike put a full clip of Battle Rifle ammo into one and it kept coming. He then smacked it a round a bit and had to force a frag grenade into its belt in order to kill it.

And from what I can tell the war in Halo is pretty much based after Legendary mode. (ie Elites taking 50 bullets to kill inside the Flood, the Hunter's strength against 4 MA5Bs shooting at it, the zeal of the Grunts, how plasma burns through the human body, 4 sniper shots to kill an Elite in The Fall of Reach, etc.)

You're right, the MC does shoot him on the ground. I never thought much about that, I think he went down so easily because it was a demo though. The extra bullets were for show or something. I would want to shoot extra bullets into it, a thing like that would piss me off like the golden elite with the plasma sword. I always melee those thing dead bodies

I dont want the Brutes to have a weak spot, I mean I think Hunters are cool, but that weak spot wrecked 'em! Also I've heard the helmets they wear take 2 shots from the sniper rifle to destroy before you can even shoot to kill! So I wouldnt call that a weak spot!

Yay!

if the brutes have a weak spot it better take more than one shot to kill it. it would get pretty lame if it was.

The Brutes went down so easily in the 2003 E3 demo because they had the AI of a Grunt. Bungie had not finished the Brute AI at the time being.

Yay!

also there was an explosion right next to them
