Since all we have to do is pop off their helmet to expose their brain, then shoot them with a pistol to kill them, how many shots will it take to pop off the helmet? I imagine 10 rounds from a battle rifle, and 2 from a sniper rifle. What do you guys say? (This example would be on Heroic). Describe how many bullets and what difficulty.
well as you saw from the 03 demo brutes dont have shielding(do they?) all it takes is a few pops to the chest with the butt of any gun and maybe a bullet or two teh finish em... I say brutes are the least of our worries...[Edited on 7/17/2004 11:25:12 AM]
I read it in oxm, I think, or somewhere on a bungie website. I forgot.
No I think they are like Hunters just with out the one shot kill problem. Plus in the E3 Demo they weren't hard at all cause they had Grunt A.I.

Well if you want to look for ideas of were to shoot a Brute to kill it in a few shots or less, look at one of the pictures of it on Bungie.net and examine it to look for clues of where the weak parts of the armor are.I would suspect though if you were to shoot the Brute right in the face where there is no protection it would die in a few shots or less.
Yeah, head shots hurt the most on any enemy, except the hunter. So I imagine the face as another weak point.
You know what would be funny if the fastest way to defeat a Brute is by shooting it in the Crotch that would be hilarious i could probably do that for hours.
since they look sorta unarmoured ill aim where I think their heart is( they look like monkeys so Ill aim where human hearts are).and thats good their AI is going to be better but even though their AI sucked in 03 demo it they stil looked ridiculusly easy to kill..
I think people are overlooking the brute's arsenal. Have you all forgot about their mysterious guns and nades? Maybe they don't need armor for the simple fact that they have some of the best weapons.
As i keep saying it was Grunt A.I. in a Brute shell that wasn't actually the Brute at full fighting power if it was it probably would have been a lot harder to kill than just that shot and smack smack

meh... I still look forward ot my first encounter with one so I can mimic MC from the e3-03 demo exactly..hehehe<punch,punch,punch,pop,pop,walk away>ohhhh yeaaa

And what of their new weapons? What do you guys think they do?HURT!I think they are like Grenade Luanchers or else they wouldn't be called lug throwers for nothing.
Have you seen how they hold the guns? The side of the weapon molds to their fingers. interesting, and it's the only covie weapon that's not purple or blue.

hmm..are brutes even covies? I thought they where some sort of enslaved race...?
Covies is a religious group remember so it doesn't matter what race you are as long as your part of the religioun you are Covenant
Not only that, but its armor is protecting its peckers.
I'll be on my own side.

I say brutes are the least of our worries...no that demo is over a year old. you cant jump to conclusions about it when theres been a whole year since then of changes and development
Posted by: DeathscytheV2hmm..are brutes even covies? I thought they where some sort of enslaved race...?all races except the Elites and Prophets are enslaved races.
I used the 03 video as a reference not my basis for how they look, I used bungies rendered pic of a brute and thats how I based my opinion on their armour. you assumed that the 03 vid is the only thing I used for my basis on how they look, so in fact YOU where the one that jumped to conclusions friend.(not very nice to try and make me look bad just so you can look good, it never winds up working the way people want)[Edited on 7/17/2004 11:54:33 AM]
i wasnt tryin to make you look bad. when you said they werent going to be a problem,i meant that there probably has been a lot of changes and will probably be a lot stronger. and the AI wasnt completely finished yet,so they will probably be smarter and stuff like that
