Subject: Elite DLC for ODST?

" I will seek vengeance upon those who have betrayed my family, and uncover a conspiracy bigger that I could have imagined. I am Ezio Auditore di Firenze. I am an Assassin"

Sure Bungie has stated that ODST is to be Sans Elites but would it be cool to play as an Elite. Maybe a free Download or at least 200 points. It would be fun. No major difference only height and other features physically. It can be the ODST equivalent of an Elite. Also good for Firefight.

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

ODST elite....
you mean a grunt?

No maybe like a less armored Elite that was slightly taller then a Human and was wearing an all black stealth suit.

Really, a Spec-Op Grunt is most likely really close to a ODST.

That would be an awesome DLC.

A covert Elite Honor Guard member. A Black Berat?

quite what i was thinking.
roughly same height (by the books), no sheilds, about equal health, can use pretty much each gun as can ODSTs (guessed, they can already use PP, PR, spiker, fuel rod, man turrets, etc...)

KillaGod is my alternate Bungie.net account with my Gamertag linked to that account!

Ty92PrideFireZ is my new alternate account with my new and permanent Gamertag linked to that account.

Awesome idea, I would love to play as an Ultra Elite.

It would have to be a physically weak Elite to be any close to a ODST. An Elite without any gear is pretty close to SPARTAN-II in a energy shieldless MJOLNIR suit.

I would like a Elite DLC, but it would make a little of sense. And I highly doubt Bungie would start cashing in armor permutations.

EDIT: And about Grunts, they are far superior in strength to any human, even spartans. Have you seen them using plasma cannons with one hand in Halo 3. (Yeah, it is a glitch.)

Sorry Op. I, for one, am not a fan of Bungie's decision to include Elites as a playable character in H3. I am quite confident, for no other reason than Elites have lost favor at this part in the story, that ODST will not include, either by default and/or DLC, a single Elite.

Come on it's not a bad premise. Makes the 60 bucks kinda worth it.

Or Jackal?

Proto-Marines

I think it would be cool to play as a farret...a covenant farret!!!

  • 06.12.2009 12:08 PM PDT

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

I think a Jackal is more equivalent, but no, it probably won't happen.

I am prepared for SOME explosions, thanks to EOD.

Spec. Ops Grunts FTW!

  • 06.12.2009 12:11 PM PDT

I really would like to play as some other Covenant in a different game, but the context is wrong for ODST. Unless there is a setting where you as the Covenant fight humans, it would not make much sense. Unless you were an Elite.
