OK so the game is in New Mombasa after the slip space jump

now a few minutes before that the chief was fighting the covies, all elites, no brutes
and odst takes place within 24 hours of these events and all the elites are instantly taken out and the brutes fill in?
How?

Anyone got an explanation?

Typical Halo nerd. Move along.

The Brutes were sent to New Mombasa to clean up the "scum" that still inhabit the streets. Or to look for survivors. Elites, still being the top of the Covenant pyramid are sent to protect Delta Halo.

i.e, Brutes are on Earth at the time, Elites in space.

the elites were part of Regret's Task force, which were not "in" on the Brute takeover. It was Truth's plan.

Regret left, and with him, the elites.

Bungie talked about this in one of the weekly updates.

Short explanation:

Elites left with Regret because they serve him. Truth sends in the Brutes because he prefers them over the Elites and is putting the Great Schism into motion.
