My old Bungie.net account was created February 6, 2008. Unfortunately, I had signed up using my brother's email account (we then shared an Xbox Live account which was linked to my old Bungie.net account), and he changed the password, meaning I couldn't log in. Thus is why I have this account.

Yes, PLEASE!

it'd be bad.

elites and spartans aren't even equal! so why add a third race? work more to have the 2 races equal before thinking about it.
plus, there is like 14 people in the world who like brutes.

I'd rather have 2 races with plenty of armors and stuff than 3 with a few...

That would be freaking funny.

But I just want the brutes to be more HAIRY.

So if I decided to have no armor, I'd be one hairy ass monkey! GRRR

i say no because they are too big to miss. anyway is you read the books mc dosent meet a brute until after halo ce

  • 08.30.2009 4:30 PM PDT

It would be cool but it wouldnt work, Brutes dont have shields and are way bigger then Elites or Spartans.

MASTER CHIEF doesn't meet a brute.

This is SPARTAN-259.

Plus, Bungie could just scale down the Brute's model for MM. No biggie. (BAYBA)

..

Yes they do. Or at least they could

Just scale the model for MM and add sheilds.

Just like that.

1. How would you know that only 14 people in the world like Brutes? that is obsurd.
2. Who said that you couldn't have three races with countless ammounts of armor?

brutes weren't even at the fall of reach, they weren't even part of the covenant at that time!!

yes and i see how it could work because the brutes in campaign have plenty of armor choices and the hit boxes would be basically the same to spartans.

  • 08.30.2009 6:36 PM PDT

Are You Serious?

No. You shouldn't. I would go as far to say, you shouldn't of been able to play as Elites. So that means...yes....no, i mean no...............huh?

  • 08.30.2009 6:48 PM PDT

for ace

They would have to make them balanced and smaller most likely and with some power armor.

I would love it but it woudn't work,Brutes are to big making them unbalanced,but the biggest problem is that there is no Brute character,The reason you play as an Elite is thanks to the Arbiter back in Halo 2.In other words,if YOU want to play as a Brute...Bungie must make a character where you play a Role in it

I was wanting that in halo 3 multiplayer but it was too late, a try for ODST too late made already pitty huh?

anyways. uhh sure i'd love it but remember that Brutes were never used in combat really they were somewhat how do i say this i forgot how it was said. .. lets say, disgraced something like that? they didn't even let them pilot most covenant vehicles till' later in H3 but it could be a plan -rubs chin-

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.

Wear ODST arm- oh wait you ARE, Congrats bud, you made yourself look stupid.

Anyway, yes, they should be in, because it would make sense.

No they dont, they just need to add the 1st person animations. Whether or not you play as one in campaign has NOTHING to do with whether or not you can play as one in Multiplayer (In Halo 2, they took the time to animate 2 seperate Elite models, one as the Arbiter, the other in Combat armor, all that extra data they really did not need the Arbiter for.

you fail at detecting play on words, sarcasm and humor. 1 - it's a low estimation that tends to be funny by pointing out the fact not a lot of people like them. not a lot at all.

2 - easy. if you have to do 3 races, then you have to split your time in three. lets say they decided to spend 10 days on working on each race.
2 races : 5 days per races. 3 race : 3 days per races. and that's assuming they want to make brutes and elites and spartans equal (because in H3, they probably spent 7/10 of the time working on the spartans...)
so mathematically if you have less stuff to do, you do them better and you spend more time on them.
