So, I've see some thread on this, but none of them go back and look at the Halo time line to make a good case as to why we should. ((Even if we do not.))
But there have been things that Bungie has said that make you re-think this.
BRUTE (Jiralhanae)
Massive and ape-like. Many have been observed speaking human languages. Depending on location and MOS they will be encountered in groups up to eight.
They are fearless, vicious opponents and must not be underestimated. Currently, they fill the command role that Elites occupied previously. Whether or not this is indicative of a power shift within the Covenant is of no consequence to the current operation. ANYTHING that seeks to obstruct the successful completion of your mission is a legitimate target.
One if this is the case Bungie you -blam!- up your own time line. . . Good job.
But lets not dwell on such things, surly Bungie would never mess up that bad.
There's this part
Whether or not this is indicative of a power shift within the Covenant is of no consequence to the current operation. ANYTHING that seeks to obstruct the successful completion of your mission is a legitimate target.
I wonder why they would say that ? If your just fighting the Halo 3 sand box of bad guys, why allude to more, after you said there wouldn't be any.
We realize that the Elites are of a fan-favorite, so it's probably wise to set aside your compassion and steel yourself for what is about to come. There are no Elites to fight in Halo 3: ODST.
In all the tread I've looked in no one has looked up, the real time line Halo 3 ODST, is more like Halo 2 ODST with Halo 3 graphics.
Halo 3 ODST does not take place between Halo 2 and 3 like were lead to believe, unless the end is in Halo 3.
The game begins 6 hours after Halo 2's Level 5 Metropolis.
The next level is the Arbiter, were you become the Arbiter.
This happens all happens on October 20th 2552
Delta Halo happens November 2, 2552
12 days latter.
Its not till November that
A) The Master Chief tracks down and kills the Prophet of Regret on Installation 05.
and
B) High Charity arrives at Installation 05. Witnessing the assassination of the Prophet of Regret, the Prophet of Truth replaces the Honor Guard Elites with Brutes. Insulted, the Elite Councilors threaten to resign from the High Council.
C) The Arbiter and Tartarus are sent to retrieve The Index. The Arbiter successfully takes the Index, but Tartarus tries to kill him and takes the Index from him, as he was secretly ordered to do so by the Prophet of Truth.
D)Most of the Elite Councilors are taken to the surface of Installation 05 where they are murdered by the Brutes.
E) Tartarus declares war on the Elites, and the Battle of High Charity begins. Fighting between Elite and Brute forces breaks out all over High Charity. As word spreads, fighting takes place throughout the Fleet, as Elite and Brute controlled ships attack one another.
Now ODST is set on the 20th of October, during the events of Halo 2, in the First Battle of Earth at Mombasa.
12 days before the Great Schism the Covenant civil war.
And even though the game takes place during the events of Halo 2 First Battle of Earth and Battle of Installation 05; all of the character, weapon, and vehicle models were taken from Halo 3, creating an inconsistency within the canon already, sure we like the stuff, but some consistency would be nice, right?
The Brute's have armor, Spike Grenade, Flame Grenade. And we have Mongoose, and Spartan laser, Oh and lose the BR ? ? ? WTF BBQ?
So, in all logic we should be fighting Elites, there fun they were our first, and they go wort wort wort when we kill them, why would Bungie rob us of this as an ODST?
Now what Bungie could be doing, that hole blatantly lying to us that they do.
And when we all kill our first Elite, were filled with joy and say. . . " OH Bungie, I see what you did there."
I mean they said Halo 3 was there last Halo game, look what we have 2 more. Bungie is good a misleading us.
And for you people that say, "OH but its built on Halo 3 and the Elites are our friends the programming can't be changed. . . ."
WHAT? Cant be changed. . . SO your gonna tell me they can take rockets off my Hornet but they cant change an elite? Or Your gonna tell me that they have built a new program for Reach because 100% your gonna kill Elites in Reach
So ether there lying or they don't know there own time line, and by the time they remembered it it was "Oh well -blam!- to late."
