Subject: A Possible Elite Bonus Story.

Definately. It should, as you said, be a seperate mini campaign. Not a back and forth thing.

How about if you beat it on Legendary, you unlock another 3-5 levels where you are an Elite?


Yes, this is what im hoping for.

So say you have 3 or 4 HUGE battles in the normal campaign. And when you beat it on legendary you get to go back to those HUGE battles and fight as an elite against them.

I want to kill Marines. Many Marines. With an Energy Sword. Specifically, I want to swing one in a circular melee and decapitate multiple enemies at a time.

I highly doubt Bungie would create a game in which you were killing humans.... when they're on the brink of total annihilation.

Reach was a massive loss for the human race.

Doesn't really make sense, does it?


...marines die in Halo all the time when you're playing Campaign. What's wrong with a short Elite Campaign?


I know we're humans and all, but try to see it from a universal perspective. I mean, we've been killing grunts since Halo CE, and now in the end they're endangered! Thats freakin sad.
Being human and killing aliens is just as unethical as the opposite. Or have we become "xeno elitistic"? Thankfully its only a game :)


what are u talking about grunts breed fast <<

Yeah. I'm back. Whatcha gonna do about it?

Hmmmm.

How should I put this...?

Epic winsauce with a side-order of awesomeness sounds about right.

Maybe even a Spec Ops Elite campaign where you do a bunch of assassin, or camo undercover missions?

Sounds good, now we just gotta bug the hell out of bungie! :P

  • 07.20.2009 8:09 AM PDT

it is a good idea, but bonus doesn't soud good to me, it must be a main story. Like Halo 2 in that case the Arbiter had the best part of the story... bungie had to do levels for him.
Now the covenat won, I want to play as the winners of the battle too!!

That's a fair point, the Covenant do win.

Woot Woot Woot
Sangheili FTW!

In these days im replaying Halo2 and i still have a lot of fun at playing the Arbiter's missions.
I hope Bungie in someway puts again a Elite campaign as they did in H2.
Just image being a Spec Ops Elite with longstanding Active camo (not just few seconds) and blowing up some human head with Beam Rifle or ripping some marine with Energy Sword.
Also commanding a squad of fellows Elites or a mix of Grunts and Jackals and Hunters.
It will be freaking awesome!!
Please Bungie don't disappoint your Elite-lover fans!!!

Could it be a movie?
Just putting it out there. Someone find me some evidence for or against.

Yeah, a bit like that. One could even underline the Spartans tragic death by making him/her enter the battle knowing that he/she would die. Not in vain though, the battle would have hindered the Covenant from accomplishing their goal (whatever that was).

P.S please, do not remind me of that god-awefull game, it singlehandedly ruined the the Star Wars story. SPOILER! Starkiller defeating Vader is just a bad joke, one equal to the Rookie defeating Master Chief. How Lucas could have allowed that I do not know :(


No, it's the same as Forge killing the Arbiter in hand to hand combat at the end of Halo Wars.

  • 07.21.2009 5:46 AM PDT

personally i reckon if they do an elite story it should be based around the arbiter in halo wars and the struggles he goes through in the a halo wars genesis for the collectors edition at least. i mean who doesn't like being a baddass elite with dual energy swords. another thing that would be pretty sweet would be to fight a cyclops if not a spartan i mean after all they are pretty much a prototype of the spartan armor n u could deck em with heaps of weapons,(marine in cyclops armor with dual chainguns n shoulder mounted rocketpods would be a sweet boss). hell even include it as a vehicle in ODST or some thing just to give marines that extra punch (plz fix the marine AI if you do that though, its really frustrating when a marine drives off a cliff or runs into a wall . )

  • 07.21.2009 6:13 AM PDT

This would be awesome, but i doubt bungie would ever let us fight marines. For some reason, they didn't want it in halo 2... Maybe if it was fighting the flood or something... dunno. Grunt rebellion?

He wasn't at Reach.
His fleet was designated to guard the first Halo ring.

I really like the idea of playing the Arbiter in his gold armor on the first Halo.

  • 07.21.2009 8:44 PM PDT

I have to say this is one idea that I like. It would be nice to be on the other side.

I think the reason we've never played against the humans is because they haven't balanced them to be enemy character models, or something like that.

great Idea, it would also be different because you could finally be a normal soldier who wouldn't get all the attention. Does bungie take Ideas from what we think will be cool? I hope they do because this is a great idea.

Man is born free but everywhere he is in chains.

Sounds cool. I'm a fan of Elites myself, but I've noticed that in none of the Halo games has Bungie set us against humans. Even when we fought as the Arbiter we only fought Heretic Rebels and the Flood for the Covenant and after the Schism, just Brutes.

  • 07.22.2009 7:40 AM PDT

Man is born free but everywhere he is in chains.

Back when I was playing Halo 2 as the Arbiter, I thought of a different campaign about previous Arbiters, even before the Human-Covenant War. The idea came when Truth mentioned the old victories won with the past Arbiters: The Taming of the Hunters; The Grunt Rebellion.. Maybe they could throw in new ones like annexing different planets and conquering other Covenant species like the Drones, and perhaps even the first contact with Jackal mercs.

Not to disagree with you (I quite like the arbiter parts of H2) but most people disliked the arbiter parts of H2. I don't think having compulsory levels as an elite would go down too well with many members of the community.

I do, however, love the idea of a bonus level or 2 as an elite. Possible as an easter egg for completing the whole game on ledgendary.
