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?
yep but in the Multiplayer there a little shorter then them

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.

its SO annoying when people say its impossible becouse...(then there make a point about cannon and halo story and history w/e) that is really ignorant.

multiplayer isnt meant to be cannon, during halo 3's timeline there arnt red and blue groups of startans and elites trapped in a cycle of death and respawning while they fight for flags...unless there was a book on that??????? not completely sure...
so when people say "but brutes wernt on reach" WHO THE -blam!- CARES its multiplayer, u dont have to be a brute so why would it bother you, i personally wouldnt either but i know a LOT of people who want that feature
customiztion is a GOOD thing, and so is change

The brutes are a good idea. Would play as on in stalker armor (no camo)

[URL=http://www.bungie.net/stats/halo3

While i agree that story doesnt affect multiplayer, it is a matter of game play why the brutes shouldnt be in multiplayer. This is of course if the multiplayer for reach is exactly like halo 3, but brutes are bigger than spartans and elites. This would present a much more visible target for one thing and not to mention a bigger hit box, so they would be easier to kill, thats a huge no no. Sure you can change the model for the brute, but it would hav to be a change that makes them the same size as spartans or elites, and then it wouldnt look like a brute, which would make it worse.

As a side note, my opinion of the model change for brutes would be terrible because it would ruin the brutes. Look what happnd to elites. This is just my opinion, but i thought the elites were way more badass in Halo 1 when they were tall and threatening and you couldnt understand their language, they were so aggressive. once they were added to multiplayer they became more like hunch backs and lost that badass feeling.

Again this only applies if the multiplayer is the same as H3, which i doubt, so there may be brutes, and there may only be spartans, we'll jus hav to wait and see.

  • 07.23.2009 7:44 PM PDT

Signatures are for squares.

Brutes just wouldn't make sense in Reach, sorry. I'm not an ape fan.

  • 07.23.2009 8:20 PM PDT

Although my coup is boring, you are somehow jealous...
Click.
KOTOR
Steam

The major diffrence, as most people forget, in Halo 2 you play as the Arbiter, so you play as the elite in Halo 2 Multiplayer. Same goes for Halo 3. The question is, if REACH will even have elites in multiplayer, largely because you never use them in the campaign, and thats a whole new set of animations for the new guns (for first-person that is). And as we all know, most fans are impatient, so Bungie might just skip all the mess and stay with just the spartans and their armor varients (Which there might be more of.)

I am of an open mind and I am willing to hear criticism. Also: That's stupid and you're stupid.

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.


The new company with some Employees from Ensemble Studios is indeed Robot Entertainment, but the game was still made by Ensemble Studios.

Besides, Multiplayer isn't suppose to be canon.

Only because they made them bend there knees a little bit, they can do a similar thing with the Brutes too, or they can just simply shrink them with an Evolution explanation type thing.

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


i agree...elites are boring not enough armour variety...plus they dont have any secret armour for them either and spartans are dull now

if they have a bigger hit box then its the guy who chose to make his guy a brute's fault isnt it? its apparently easier to kill an elite in halo 3 in swat but they still have it (not my opinion but ive heard this alot)

Np Dude its like a cpryright if you dont mention the person who u copyed and pasted the idea from then u go to jail. But Back to the brutes! I think it'll be cool if when u are holding the Grav hammer (for the brutes) when u swing it he swings it like a pimp slab w/ one hand

They already have a variety of different armour, plus they would be great for machinimas.

Brutes were actually one of the first types of covenant to set foot on a UNSC planet, before Elites even.
Thanks to whoever put links to the Brute armours, that answered my question nicely.

I'm sure that if they put Brutes in though people would just complain: "Oh i hate Brutes in SWAT, their heads are too high up so that i can't position my cursor properly... Grumble -blam!- mumble racial slur about player who just killed me's mother."
