Can anyone please send me a picture or tell me if there will be hunters in halo 2. There probly will be but why have they not said or showed anything about them yet.

That's just it, we don't know :)

Maybe for several possible reasons:

1. They're not in it and have been replaced by Brutes,
2. They've got a completely new look which they want to surprise you with when it comes out.
3. They haven't actually finished then yet?

i'd say the most plausible reason is number 2... we'll just have to wait and see :)

i reckon they will have new armour that covers the back weak spot, and the 'weak link' will be somewhere else and they want gamers to figure it out playing the game! cant wait.

Yeah they are too easy to kill even on legendary. All you have to do is shoot them once in the back and they die. I think that elites are much more difficult by far.

I may be going insane, but I thought I read in one of the weekly updates that the hunters would like destroy stuff instead of going around it so doesn't that kinda prove that they r still there at least.

I would like to see hunters use tactics that are different from the "shoot if hes far away, lunge if hes close" tactic. how bout if the hunters throw things? such as debris and bust-up vehicles, and the ability to stomp on you or something as such. what if hunters could jump on your vehicle and use its weight to maybe crush or use its sheild to deflect oncoming vehicle with a well placed swipe

I posted something similar yesterday. Yeah, I can't find -blam!- on them either! I think hunter's were hard if you didn't have the pistol. You could unload anything else on there back and they'd grunt and try and smack you!
I think if they give them more armor, and make them faster, they'd be deadly! I bet you they will throw -blam!- and knock -blam!- aside in Halo 2! On legendary Elite are hard in certain situations, but hunter's on legenadry can kill you in two hits with that shield thwaking! I don't think they are easy all the time in tight narrow hall ways, like the Maw. One/two hits with the rail gun and you are dead!
I shudder to think if they were infected by the Flood!

No, I nor anyone else can send you a pic because there arent any. Good news! Hunters will be in Halo 2. The following was taken from the May 7th Bungie Weekly Update - John Butkus' odyssey of animation continues, as he explains, "Okay, this week I've been bouncing between three characters...Hunter, Marine, and CENSORED.That means they will be in the game :)

You think they'd be cool to play as in Multi-Player?

I bet your right they probly are making a new a weak spot for it and don't want to make any pictures because it will give it away
