Subject: Elites, brutes, flood, and the melee system...

im going to be reeeeeally disappointed if bungie makes up some random reason of why elites arnt in reach, cuz honestly, i like them as team mates, but it just doesnt make up for killing them and then punching their dead bodies to see excessive amounts of purple blood in halo 1...ah, the good old days

and there had better not be brutes, since i am so sick of them at the last half of halo 2, the entire campaign of halo 3, halo 3:ODST, and then reach? im not even saying they are putting in brutes, im just hoping they arnt.

and if they do, put them as they were in halo 2, brutes, not high tech space invaders like in halo 3 and ODST...

and as for flood, i really love flood (weird right) just not in halo 3 where you cant dismember them... In halo 1 it was fun to shoot their arms off to make "friends" but in halo 3 they just die after shooting them....

Im sure that my worst nightmares wont come true about this game as there were elites in the book, brutes wern't introduced until halo: first strike, and reach got glassed, but im just saying in case bungie puts a twist on it some how

last of all, the multiplayer melee system... i hate the whole two melee attacks and you're dead system in halo 3, as the typical conflict goes as such *you see a guy, he sees you, you start running towards each other firing ARs at eachother and then punch eachother, dead* they turned halo from a shooter, to a street fighter game

In halo 2 it took 5 melee attacks to kill someone, excessive, and unenjoyable for if someone got up close. The one hit melee system of CoD is actually fair since people dont look, fire and run, and then melee, since if some1 tries to charge you, you shoot them and they are dead, so there rarely a guy charging you

In halo 2 the 5 melee hit was too much, and in fact, the halo 3 two hit melee thing is fine, just beef up the guns? in halo 2 there were rarely people charging, instead they staying at a distance (by that i mean not charging each other trying to melee) hence why i like halo 2's multiplayer much more, but i play halo 3 because of forge...

anyway, im basically trying to say, beef up to guns so people try charging you less

thank you for reading my rant for this game

Way to read past the first sentance...

To OP: I agree with everything except the melle system, I think it's perfect as it is now. But then again, these are just opinions.
