I've read everything there is to know on Halo. I've even seen the forums and pictures in X-Box official with pictures of all the Covenant. I guess my question is....where are they? They didn't have any shiny new pictures of Hunters.
If you didn't have a pistol, those bastards were tough! Especially on Legendary! They could soak up hundreds of rifle rounds before they'd drop. Imagine if Bungie redesigned them. Added more armor, and made them faster. We all know that the Elite and Brutes will tear it up in melee combat in the next game! Imagine a faster deadlier Hunter, with armor over any of it's vunerable spots!
The Flood will be in the next game. Thats a duh! How come Elites could get only infected in the last game? Could you imagine an infected Hunter? I shudder at the concept!

There will be hunters, but I don't think that they should change them.

A Hunter with black armor would be tight!!! But yeah, they will be in the game and hope they fix that one shot kill thing

The Hunters were never that hard. One shot kill with the pistol. All you had to do was get in close and dance with them until you got a look at their backside and then fill 'em up with lead.

Hunters were by far the easyest to kill. I could kill them with any weapon without getting hurt even on legendary, and takeing two on at a time.

I think they should come back and be a little harder to kill(pistol owns their pathetic little lives). It would be cool if when they is about to die, they throw their shield at you and just try to ram into you. Also they should have a new weak point. For the first 2 weeks of halo, they were fun to kill...but once you know their weak point it's all routine and all you have to do is watch out for their fuel rod gun.

How can you assume the flood will come back?! I doubt it, and definitely not on Earth at least...but then again I never read the books.

Its been confirmed that the Flood will be back in Halo 2. (plus there is more than one Halo which means there is more Flood)

I know they were hard to kill at first, but I wasn't talking about how to kill them...
Why hasn't Bungie released any info. on them, and I wanted people to imagine if they were upgraded. No weak points and a lot faster!
And come on. No more Flood? That was only one Halo. 343 Guilty spark mentions others.. The Flood will be back.

Speaking of the hunter, have you missed him. There has not been one mention of them ever!!! Or has there?? . It is totally redone and is almost twice as tall. Even other hunters are afraid of eachother. They have been known to grab marines and eat them. Now you might ask how is that possible?? Well, as I said before they are totally re-done!!!!!

Well than, tell me where I can see those design/pictures. I haven't seen -blam!-. If you are gonna tell me that and not provide a link, or proof that just makes me mad!

Play as a team win as a team or die as a team!


I forgot but did Bungie even talk about anything about the Hunters? I justed heard that the Brutes will be stronger than the Hunters. But I don't remember any pics and stuff.

They havent showed any pics yet but if you look a few replies up from my reply you will get your answer that and if you read the thing about all of the different covenant races then... You should read the paragraph about the hunter over again and it will say this is the most like unknown of all the covenant races blah blah blah. But if you think about it maybe they are upgrading the hunter ya know? Like Semi-Auto FR's on both arms. :)
