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.

I'd love to see Brutes in MP. I've wanted it since Halo 2. Not only because Brutes are my favorite race in the Halo series, but because nearly everyone seems to think that Spartans and Elites are superior. I know that the books and the games aren't the same, but MC was nearly crushed by a Brute in one of the books (I forgot which one). They wouldn't have to do anything major to integrate the Brute into MP, and I don't really think it would ruin anything. You're not forced to use it, so why complain about it? Just because someone doesn't want to use it doesn't mean it shouldn't be an option for the less competitive players (and even competitive players who like Brutes) out there.
well, in TFoR ... MC struggled a lot to kill an elite hand to hand too. elites are naturally as strong as spartans *cough cough*.
in any case, it's not even sure brutes will be in reach at all, in SP at least. and I doubt bungie will bother creating a model, textures, armor perms and animations for a character you only see in MP...
and even if they ARE in sp... fact is, there is not a lot of people who likes brutes. not a lot at all. mlg players say it's not competitive, regular players think they look dumb and stupid and fat, elite fans just don't like brutes at all...
plus, the more races there is, the less time bungie has to work on each race, the less content they have each.... I'd rather have 2 well done, complete races than 3 half done races (with one of these 3 races used by only a few thousands players... a huge waste imo).
Ive seen a LOT of chieftain players in Halo Wars. It wasn't Bungie, but he wasn't even IN campaign, and they made him a hero.
*claps hand*
have you played the game? honestly? well,do it now.
out of 50 online games, you'll face forge & anders 25 times, arbiter 20 times, and the 5 spots will be split with the BC and prophet.
don't forget the fact they added him only to have 3 heros per side, AND because they already had a prophet and an elite, and brutes were the only commanding race left.
lastly, it didn't take a HUUUUGE amount of time for them to design him : take a brute, give him a beard, and tada! he doesn't appear in ANY cutscenes, so there isn't even a CG model of him at all.
in other words, he's here for the balance, not by fan demand.
Yes, I am waiting for them to Nurf the Arbiter. But Forge is only common for his role as a team player, the fact that he can feed all his cash to everyone else, other than that, he really sucks.
The two best players I EVER came across were a pair of Chieftain users in 2v2 Standard... OMG they raped me BAD. I have NEVER had problems with Arby-Forges.
