Thank you kind sir.

The main post has been updated and I got some good thoughts from COPYCATWYOMING about the Eite arguement.

Hey I was watching that video that had some speculation on whether or not it is an elite attacking that person. After watching that part 4-5 times normally I know for a fact that it wasn't a Jackal. Jackals have no Melee capabilities and as you can see at almost a nano second before 2:14 the creature swings its arm and proceeds to fire a blue plasma rifle.
So it isn't a Jackal.

While the creature was running I noticed something about its legs so I zoomed in on them, what I found was that its legs were bent just like an Elites legs would be. On top of that I decided to do some scaling just to compare the creature to a regular Jackal. I found that the Creature was standing at the same height of an Elite, but a jackal whose shield had just broke would stand at the same height. Over the time we see the creature it is obvious that it wasn't a jackal whose shield had broken because of how high it stood. Compared to the other Jackals in the video it was clear that the creature in the back was infact taller then any Jackal that was close to you.

It wasn't a Brute because in ODST Firefight in every video I have seen of a brute with a plasma rifle it has only been in campaign, brutes in firefight however carry either Brute Plasma Rifles and Spikers. That would be the Blue Class of Brute, the orange one usually carries a brute shot or in paricular cases it carries a Carbine.

After reviewing the Video one more time It is an elite, if you zoom in on the Creature you can see that it was wearing a full White body armor and helmet. It is wearing a combat helmet and combat armor, although it isn't the best video footage I can indefinetly say that this is an elite.

The Facts:
1. Not tall enough to be a Jackal, the Elite in the video is larger then the Jackal closest to you when you scale them together.
2. Brute legs and Elite legs are not at all similar to each other, when you zoom in you can plainly see that it is an Elites legs.
3. Brutes in firefight don't use normal Plasma rifles, they use brute plasma rifles and Spikers. (This depends on the variant of Brute though because weapons may very)
4. No Brute wears White armor in the game, even when a Brute takes damage its shields don't flicker white. It uses a pressureized suit and even when the suit gives out the brutes body is brown and black.
5. If you zoom in on the Elites head and play the video you can clearly see from about 2-3 different angles that it is an Elite Combat Helmet.
6. If you look closely, when the Elite falls, you can see its "Horse like feet" and when it touches the ground it sort of slides over to the left. Normal brutes would either spin to the side or they would jump over to the side.
7. Even if you just watch the video by itself you could easily tell that this was an elite just by the shape of its bod, the armor it was wearing and how it was moving.

-The Brute Plasma Rifle is confirmed
-You play as an ODST.

It is an elite i think you can see it just droped from the ship so why would its sheild automaticly breack if its a jackal? If you zoom in it does have white armor and when it runs it looks like an elite. I dont know how that could resemble a jackal ?

Check Out my FileShare.
I was once on Bungie Faves. (Feb.7-15)
I'd like to know why I can't see the signatures of others of myself on the forum. I have made favs once, 7777 campaign kills, and I helped bring modders down when they were at their strongest

Elephants haven't been confirmed. But use of the city's garbage trucks have been ;)

What's hot, sexy and purple?

Ayane (and the Wraith :-D)

its no elite. Its jackal-sniper with a carbine and we all know that these kind of jackals dont have shields and usually running/moving in a non-crouching position. Jackals have the same "chicken legs" like elites and are even taller than humans. Look how fast and nimble he runs after the ODST. No elite is moving that fast.


There are thousands!!!! of videos of this firefight map and we've never seen a single ELITE. So please, it cant be an elite.

Attention whores piss me off.

Wow, thanks for ruining the story for me (saying that Dare likely dies). You are a complete -blam!-. I usually wait to beat a game before seeing achievements, because they include spoilers. Thanks again for being an -blam!-.


So, saying she likely dies has ruined the game for you? Are you freaking kidding me? She may be just knocked out or attacked and not die. The achievements don't tell you the story line, and any inferral can always be wrong.

Watch the video again, if that isn't an Elite, then its a really beefed up Jackle, it's taller than the Jackles closer to you, stands up straighter, and charges just like an Elite.

and plus all the other things COPYCATWYOMING said.

CONFIRMED

Fire fight never ends, it doesnt have a wave limit. Most of those things that are "confirmed" are just speculation. For example, red/gold hunter, those have not been confirmed.

elites are not in odst.
that is a jakal in the video.
it was confirmed no to have elites a while ago
and halo 3's engine (what odst uses) isnt programmed to have elites as enemies


your a dumbass! elites are programmed to be enemies in halo 3, see what happens when you kill a few! they all turn against you! so you fail! and on a website somewhere someone wrote that there were camo elites in firefight! so you fail again!
Nuchy, they`re still not supposed to be Enemies, so it isn`t exactly leveled out, like if you turn against your own guys.

How did game tuts get in legal trouble? Did they steal them or what? I mean my brother added a guy to his friends list and he had achivments for Odst so i dont think they can get in trouble if they just made of video of that. THAT IS IF ThEY DIDNT STEAL THEM!
