I kinda miss the tinkle on multiplayer maps, since it loudly announced when somebody was walking in certain areas. Which you would then blast. With a Brute Shot. "Tinkle, tinkle, tinkle. Whump, whump, whump. Blam! Blam! Blam! Ow." -Frankie

Think about it just for a second. I realize it may be nothing. But I think we all know that Bungie is all about hints. I don't know if this may mean a Brute is playable, I highly doubt it, or if the Brute's weapon is. Slug thrower I think it is called.

I think the weapon might be called a 'brute shot' or maybe they are referring to a powerful blast I.E. brute shot.

Yeah, I made a post about it earlier. But got little response. I'm pretty sure Frankie meant it, looks like a sweet weapon to play with.

yeah brutes should be available, but sheildless for multi player action, hopefully they will also throw in the slug thrower as its now called(didn't catch a name in the books)

no it was tlaking about a human or an elite using a brute shot (slug thrower) if there was brutes it would be unbalanced i mean its huge i could hit it with a freaking sniper in the head from a mile away

I made a post that i noticed in the E3 video , when MC kills the brute it drops its weapon which of course means that u might could pick it up???? I've been calling it a nade launcher, but thnx to you i now have a name for it.

Did you also notice that if you speed up the sound, the brute sounds exactly like a human...actually almost like linkO_o
