Subject: Brute Armor?

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

Will the Brutes in ODST be wearing the same armor as in Halo 2, or will it be the same as 3's? If it is the same as in Halo 3... well...I'm very sure that the Brutes hadn't changed armor yet in this point in time so if it is 3 then that would be somewhat messed up.....

Its pritty much a "copy pasta" of all enimes from Halo 3 Campaign with a few AI tweaks.

It's the same as Halo 3. And I think the only reason we didn't see them in this armor in Halo 2 was because they weren't the main enemy, Elites were. Also, in the books it describes the Brutes as wearing this same armor and using the Fist of Rukt and all that crap. Like the Brutes who landed on Harvest had a Fist of Rukt and the same armor sooo... :P

The Brutes you fought in Halo 2 are a part of the Chieftain Tartarus's ( The brute you fight with the grav hammer ) pack. They didn't wear armor because Tartarus believed in hindered them in combat, or something like that.


The brutes in H3 and ODST are not of Tartarus's pack, so they have power armor.

Well... the Brutes that the Chief fought in Halo 3 were just defending High Charity ect. so they didn't really need full armour.

You meen they THOUGHT they didnt need full armor. I would just take a Carbine and headshot them to death

Yes, it is, still, I find this a lazy way to put enemies with a same style in the game that look too early, before Brutes took over the Elites place. I mean, they had their own style of armor in Halo 2, what was made with the change to Halo 3 all of the sudden?

from the several cutscenes i saw, and through the E3 gameplay coverage, it's going to be the Halo 3 brute armor.
