Umm... I haven't read this article or anything but I'm just making an educated guess that the "D" section means all the things under part D of the A-Z list? Maybe some things under D are completely unconfirmed and Bungie wanted it to stay that way? Isn't it kind of obvious?

Just using common sense here, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Has anyone heard the rumor about how you get get elites and brutes to kill each other?

I heard that if you have active camo and a plasma rifle/pistol you can go in between a group of elites and brutes, fire a shot at one group, and then they start firing back at each other because they assume the other group did it! That would kick so much ass if you could do that...


Yes, I've heard that aswell, but with Grunts and Jackals!! That would be awesome because it would show the already-tense situation from the books.

It would be quite funny. Don't use noob or anything like that man, no need for it. (read the forum rules)

Grunts and Jackals are too small to be flood-forms, it's in the novel The Flood. Therefore, I guess that rules out Engineer flood-forms aswell. Hunter Flood would be quite odd.

The engineer to me does not actually look like an "Engineer" type of creature, i have to say the engineer should be a grunt with glasses

  • 07.13.2004 9:41 PM PDT

no. an engineer fixes stuff by taking them apart and learning of hteir anatomy.

Plain and simple, the engineer should be a grunt with glasses and a wrench in one hand

But don't you think that it adds to their mystery and wonder?

Also, the 'Flood' are more than likely going to play a BIG role in the games story line (thanks for that super thread Eagle).

Are these engineers in the books, because I have never heard of them? Are they covenant or human? I'm not an idiot, I just haven't read or heard anything about them, can someone clarify?

This is my first post here, but with the engineer comments. Yes, there are engineers, and I don't know whether or not they'll be in H2.

The reason I posted was that engineers were only mentioned in the books. John talks about seeing them in the streets, taking apart cars on Reach, I think. I know that he mentioned that they are pink, and are kind of like octopuses. Just somthin from the books to let you guys know....

u know...in first strike, it mentions not only engineer...engineers...but grunt engineers too. its when they crash into the covie hanger with the pelican...remember? so who knows...maybe they do wear glasses...or maybe goggles...aawww.

EDIT: o...and about the ds....maybe...destrucible enviornments? maybe theyre gonna limit it a bit or somethin.

EDIT#2: oooo...and i just saw a topic called new difficulty...reminded me...maybe its difficulty!

Does anyone think that the D might be for the Human Fighter/ bashee equivelant? Because that makes even more sense when the Flying vheicle(s) in multiplayer?
