They wouldn't need to scale the Brutes at all. If they are "too big" and are easier targets in multiplayer, level that out with them having the ability to sustain more damage. I remember in Halo 2 that it took FOREVER to kill a Brute (when I didn't have a needler or sword). So bump up the Brute's tolerance of damage.

In Halo 2 it took forever to kill anything. On Easy it took 5 melees to kill a blue (basic) elite.

No way, all changes in multiplayer should be purely aesthetic.

I dont see why not if they shrink them to the right size. If they look funny who cares YOU DONT HAVE TO PLAY AS ONE. I would still be a spratan but having more races would be awesome =p

I think it would be cool to have Brutes in multiplayer, it adds more variety rather than just having Spartans and Elites.

It'd be good for machinima. What Brute armour perms could you have though?

You have the standard armor theat the lower ranks use, the captain armor, both variants of Chieftan armor, and bungie could probably make a few new ones. Some along the lines of Honor Guard and regular armor from Halo 2.

Brutes were not incorporated in the coveanent army until the Halo 2 time period.

Wrong, they were around at this time as well. Without going into any of the books, you can look at the game, Halo Wars.

Halo wars was a seperate planet and conquering system. Plus it is made by what is now robot entertainment aka ensemble studios. In halo era and zone of planets brutes where used in jails to attend to prisoners.

Oh well the defender is the Honer gaurd brute
the captain is the gold brute
the stalker is the invisable brute
the War is the Cheiftain w/ the fuel Rod
the Alpha is the good old Cheiftain w/ Grav Hammer
the 2nd alpha was called Cheiftain and is the Brute Cheiftain from Halo Wars
The Berzerker is your good old tarturus

I end up drawing a lot, and something I've been kicking around to get to, is the Brute Basic. Which would be two simple drawings, one front view and one rear view of a brute in the most basic armor. For example, a Spartan would have his leggings and boots, just the human head shape and the gauntlets, with no shoulders. That's what I want to do for the Brutes, and you guys could print it out(the lineart) and doodle on your own armor ideas. Thing is, I'm going on vacation Saturday morning and won't be able to get to it for a few weeks. As soon as I finish it though, I'll be sure to post it on here. I tried starting work on it earlier and I kept having problems with the proportions and the pose(the hunch)

i cant either. normal brutes have no reason to be in high charity. they had no political standing in the council, and would most likely be on the front. so you are wrong.

One problem to all your theories- Reach is before Halo CE, in other words, the covenant haven't bond any interested with the brute civilzation yet until Halo 2. My guess is that they will not appear in the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta, ever.

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.

okay here is how tall a Brute is to a Elite (keep in mind that this is Halo 2 and in the Multiplayer the spartans where a little taller then the elites) heres the link

http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/halo/images/7/70/Scale.GIF So the spartans would be in the middle of them. And the brutes would be a ltiile bit more of a target. But Not by much.

You realize Spartans are a full foot shorter than Elites, right?

Brutes on High Charity were charged with guarding the prisons.
