Subject: Sorry to shatter your hopes......there will be Brutes

Because Bungie said so.....

I am convinced there will be Brutes AND Elites. But there will be brutes.....proof???

The explosions on the planets surface are not plasma, but human bombs. The only covenant race who uses what the elites call "Unclean filth" are the Brutes.
Or maby Im wrong, and the whole game is about Spartans Fighting rebels....who knows

"It fled as we set fire to their planet" - Arbiter, Halo 2

I'm pretty sure they were plasma bombs which started huge fire, perhaps glassing. Brutes weren't in Fall of Reach, they won't be in this.

There were no Brutes THAT THE SPARTANS SAW...... There will most likely be Brutes because these are new Spartans and Plasma does not just randomly appear and detonate, it streaks. That was a human ( or brute) bomb

good point! the brues use the same physical projectile technology as the humans.

Actually, brute explosions are like a mix of Covenant and human technology.

"YOUR DESTRUCTION IS THE WILL OF THE GODS, AND WE ARE THEIR INSTRUMENT."

I'm thinking these are Covenant ships appearing from slipspace in the atmosphere (Hence the reddish fiery like things, when things enter the atmosphere they burn up), or human buildings exploding.

You do know what a planet looks like when it is being glassed don't you? Hell earth as the same marks in Halo 3. It is the Elites. Though I am not making any assumptions that Bungie won't add in Brutes.

no brutes end of story plus elites are the way better enemy. (read the books there is no brutes on reach)

The ships don't appear in the atmosphere in the trailer. The trailer simply states that there are slipspace ruptures in system, as in within the solar system. The trailer is essentially telling the events at reach all within a 30 second time span. Think of it as pressing the fast foward button during the battle. At the onset, the covenant show up in system, the planet is untouched, as the trailer progresses, the battle technically has been progressing for sometime already, they dont just appear and destroy the planet in that small time frame, a lot happens in that trailer, its just sped up considerably.

are apartans fighting rebels? and stop saying that there will be brutes. pople should stop saying that there will be bla and there will be bla. you dont have the facts. its confusing? :(

  • 06.02.2009 1:39 PM PDT

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Eh, I didn't mind the Brutes. I thought that they got a bit tiresome in Halo 3. I was hoping they wouldn't have packed Brutes in, but they did.

You can presume it is the war with the Covenant, since in the trailer, it says "You know the end,"
and their likely will be Brutes.
