Did it ever occur to you that Bucks opinion doesn't matter at all?

Buck lies.
There will be elites in Reach.
The only reason there was Brutes in ODST is because it is based off the foundation of the Halo 3 engine. The Halo 3 engine supports Brute AI. Not so much Elites.

There's obviously going to be elites because this is a prequel to Halo:CE before the covenant separatists were formed so they elites are still in the covenant loyalist. And also elites were in ODST just not alive ones because if you look hard enough there are some dead elites around new mombassa.

Dude I don't care and my grammer is perfect.I used "Big", as you recall it to mak is specific."to not do...",is incorrect beause "do" is present tense/perfect(or future) when it was a past tense.

That's a joke referencing the fact that the majority of people thin elites are more fun to fight.

Yep. There is no reason not to have Elites in Reach.

That statement is so true that you can attach the implication that there is no reason TO have brutes.

Big Team Battle Multiflag/Slayer on Standoff/Valhalla/Sandtrap/Avalanche = Win

Is it better to have elites? Or Brutes? I say... Is it too much to ask for both?

An ODST would be destroyed by an invisible elite using an energy sword.

  • 09.27.2009 8:28 AM PDT

~Z~

i don't see HOW they would make brutes the main enemy it just wouldn't make sense.

And yea, eiltes are so much more fun to fight, it just doesn't make sense to have an enemy who wouldn't die in one hit to the head from a sniper rifle!

Sentio aliquos togatos contra me conspirare.
>> >> (I think people in togas are conspiring against me)

If you really really dont give a chit come here (but I really don't care)

Oh and the Empire would totally crush the Imperium...I mean come on Vader has a theme song! Does the Emperor have one?!? I think not!

Elites may not be in the game.

Assuming it follows the same kind of timeline that the fall of reach does then the first time Elites were seen was by Johnand Linda on one of orbital MAC cannons above reach.

Still more likely than Brutes though, as they were first seen in first strike.

Just passing through life and trying to kill the time.

I don't get why people hate brutes. There's barely any difference between brutes and elites. give me a brute and an elite and you can use the exact same tactics and get the exact same challenge. I like them both. but canon-wise it will definately be Elites.
Elites shields do recharge though. that is one things they have over brutes.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

This is the Prequel to Halo 1, so we obviously are still going to be fighting Elites. They will be our main enemy, most likely.

The reason why they're hated on so much is because they don't really look alien. Heck, Brutes look like they could have evolved here on Earth. And they went from these brutal intimidating monsters in H2 to these wanna-be elites in H3.

and the fact that they dont take cover, and when shields down shouts at the sky letting be an easy target

There's gonna be Elites in Reach. It takes place a little before Halo:CE and you fight Elites in that, don't you?

  • 09.27.2009 9:58 AM PDT

if they leave elites out of reach then I will have to tell the government about their little 7 step plan to take over the world.

Dont underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
