If you're reading this, you need to stop stalking me. If you can't stop stalking me, you might as well go here.

If I recall correctly, the Great Schism didn't start until a few days after Regret's little stunt at New Mombasa, logically meaning that we should expect to see some combat with Elites.

Anyway, if this does indeed happen, which i hope it does, is anyone else interested to see how the Covenant forces on Earth react during the early hours of the Covenant Civil War?

By this I mean Brutes, Elites, streets of New Mombasa, lots of violence, and a bunch of confused Grunts caught in the middle.

Infection in Halo 3 isn't zombie killing; it's ethnic cleansing. Have you ever noticed that these "zombies" are just black Spartans?

The Elites were pulled from Earth and replaced by the more devoted Brutes by Truth immediately after the slipspace event if I recall correctly. Bungie explained it in a weekly update a few months back.

My name is from Star Wars. Now you know.

Feel free to follow me on my twitter and stalk me.

No Elites in ODST. So sad.

that would make a great new gameplay element. If they don't make it into campaign I'd love to see some elites jump out of the dropships in Firefight.

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

Been gone for a while Primo? Anyway, Bungie's explanation as to why we fight Brutes and not Elites.

I think that explains what you were talking about. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I say they should have a secret elite class for firefight.

But of course that wouldnt be approved sadly.

It's funny, I've been hoping that would be one of the big surprises from Bungie that hasn't or wont get revealed until release time. Would be so awesome.

It would be cool to see them in firefight. But I'm still a fan of taking on a six foot tall gorilla with a shotgun.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

Sadly not. I think it would be cool if it's more 3 sided like how h3 was with the flood. It would be awesomely dramatic if in the city it's a triple threat with brutes and elites (1 vs 1 vs 1).

The elites went off with regret, but the brutes were left behide and the ones you fight are the ones left behide plus reinforcements.

i would love to see a group of rebel elites that went against regret and stayed on earth to continue fighting the UNSC
