Subject: A Golden Hunter

well in the trailer the "gold" hunter occured during Firefight, so maybe it is Firefight specific, like Jumppack Brutes with Gravity Hammers

Well that is true too. Sort of spice up the Firefight? Have even harder Hunters than the normals you know. Couple with the skulls.. that should be fun...

Honestly, has anyone listened to the newest podcast? Bungie did talk a bit about the Hunters at some point but that was about early FF development. Haven't listened it fully yet... damn why couldn't Bungie provide a transcript from it... they all speak same time, it's hard to understand sometimes what they say. (English ain't my main tongue, obviosly o.O)

I'm sure someone claimed that Golden Hunters are mentioned in the Podcast.

Looks more like it's dirty, sorta sandy.

I'm gonna say gold.
1. The dead grunt was still red.
2. It looked like firefight. I'm assuming that after so many rounds, you've fought all the normal enemies, so they mix it up.
3. Why couldn't there be golden hunters? There are golden elites, brutes. It most likely denominates rank.
4. Gears of war gives enemies more health the further you get in the horde mode. I know this isn't gears, but maybe that is bungie's way of showing that they are tougher oppenents then usual.
I'm gonna go with gold.

I was in 5th grade. I popped in the Halo CE disc into the massive, clunky first generation Microsoft Xbox, and wrapped my small hands around the controller that was almost too big for me. Little did I know what I was getting into.

10+ years later, I still look up to my childhood hero, Master Chief, while everyone talks about He Man and Spongebob haha

I don't think that it's the lighting of the level that's making the Hunter appear golden.

If the lighting was great enough to make the Hunter's black and blue armor appear golden, then why not the orange grunt's methane tank on the left side?

Orange is closer to yellow...so why not?

Also, the camera pans around and the hunter's appearance doesn't change at all. Try pausing the video at different times during that single second at 1:22.

I say golden. No way the light would change the armor color. Not even a flare would do that.

Bungie wouldn't have added a goldish looking hunter by accident. They tend to pick up on these things. I think its gold, but we need confirmation. Maybe this will be the first enemy that can withstand a spartan laser round (besides guilty).


You are wrong, with some skulls on in Halo 3 brute chieftans can already survive a direct lazer hit. Same goes for hunters when the lazer doesn't hit it's huge shield, if not it KOs them. Banshees, ghosts (even grunts in ghosts), wraiths, choppers and prowlers can also take a direct lazer without dying.

i'm pretty sure he is only talking about enemies that aren't in vehicles while there are no skulls activated.

Yeah, I don't think it's golden here. Look at this picture of it:
