I am not entirely sure but shouldn't the brutes be more like halo 2 brutes because from the video it does look like this game starts from halo 2 right before you see delta halo so shouldn't there be no brutes or naked brutes at that....

Two makes there more than speakers.

I'm sure they weren't expecting a fight in High Chairity so I guess they didn't have it equiped on to them then.

Yeah, they were only guarding temples and such.

No. That would make the game bad. Armor doesn't matter much in the timeline, but to make the game of Halo 3 better, they needed the new main enemies (Brutes) to much more interesting to fight. Same thing goes for ODST.

but no brutes wore armors ever, even when you are the elite...they were the nudists of the covenant who only wore elbow and knee pads

Well technically there should be elites as well. I doubt all of the elites were killed in the slipspace rupture, and why send down just brutes? Its an inconsistency, but I don't care. Bungie doesn't like us to fight elites anymore. The moment we learned that the Arbiter was good in Halo 2, humans and elites never fought again.

SPOILER: Also in Cole protocol the Arbiter didn't kill a human, although one of Arby's friends shot a dying human.

brutes in halo 2 were much more fun than halo 3, in halo 3 they were very predictable

From Halo 2 to Halo 3, Bungie needed to make Brutes much more interesting to fight. By doing this, they decided to add the energy shields and power armor reminiscent of the Elites, but different because the armor falls off once the shields are gone, and they go berserk at times.

I'm just saying what I watched in Bungie's Vidoc, "Et tu Brute."

Death to rank junkies.

The Brutes in Halo 2 were added in late, but in Halo 3, Bungie had more time to work on them, which included armor.

7 lines isn't long enough for a signiture! =P

IMO the brutes from Halo 2 just looked like wookies with anger issues
