I bungie didn't go back to elites for ODST

  • 09.29.2009 1:26 PM PDT

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.

who wants to run around as a big and stupid ape that would just be easier to snipe and wouldnt fit spaces that the shorter 7 foot spartans and elites can?

Elites are actally around 8 and a half feet tall, and are really only inches shorter than a Brute.

i think it would be good to have grunts in multi player why? for the lolz of course

grunts would kick BLAM!

Like I said, there would only be little details that they had to fix to make them playable

Yes.

  • 09.29.2009 2:15 PM PDT

No it would not be balanced at all if thy added brutes in multiplayer but it would be cool to customize their armor.

  • 09.29.2009 2:21 PM PDT

If the were going to make them "Fair" like they did to elites in Halo 3 than no. We have enough hitbox problems as it is. If that wanted to give the elites spartans brutes marines ODST's etc. different advantages and disadvantages then sure.

There were no Brutes in the first few levels of Halo 2

So how they are in ODST

Seriously, nobody cares

Matchmaking isn't canon, so what does it matter?

Hitboxes arent even a problem. Competitively Elites aren't allowed anyway, so when it really matters THERE ARE NO DIFFERENCES because EVERYONE WILL BE SPARTAN.

Brutes attacked Harvest, which happened YEARS before Reach OR CE. The Brutes were there the whole time, but it was a Sangheili fleet that followed the PoA to Halo. That doesn't mean that only Elites attacked Reach, just that only Elites LEFT Reach.

It's what we wait for...
It's what we live for...

No.

The height difference is too great.

It's possible to have Elites because Elites and Spartans are almost the same (in strength and height). Also, Elites think logically just like a Spartan would.

There's a lot more than just a character skin that goes into the decision.

Brutes are -blam!-. >:(

  • 09.29.2009 3:32 PM PDT

If somebody's opinion is being smashed and nobody's helping, I try and help. I use logic and extensive vocabulary (and sometimes self-destructive circular reasoning) to confuse my enemies into submission. Fear me, trolling, fapping creatures of the night. For I. Am your worst nightmare.

If you think about it, Brutes are actually very tactical thinkers. They may have different tactics than the Elites or Spartans, but it works for them. If you look in the book Contact Harvest, you will see that Brutes were in there. Halo CE left out part of the canon. But having the chance to play as a Brute in matchmaking with different customizable armor would be awesome. Go for it Bungie!

Elites are actually within inches of the height of a Brute, and stand over a foot taller than Spartans. If they slouched Brutes it would work fine too (They already too in their movement animation.)

Yes, YES!

OR maybe, if your playing infected, the zombies spawn as chieftants and brutes! haha sicknes

  • 09.29.2009 3:38 PM PDT

AVG

I think that would be cool, add to the matchmaking experience,
and I heard someone say this and it was that matchmaking isnt canon, really all it is is killing other players, it wouldnt really matter if the brutes were playable because it wouldn't screw up the storyline, I would stick with an elite, but id love to see them in multiplayer

  • 09.29.2009 3:39 PM PDT

What about this guys.!

MM campaign~!

Sourta like L4D, one team plays as humans, and the other plays as zombies.

But instead its one team plays as spartans, and the other team plays as grunts/brutes/elites/ect.!

  • 09.29.2009 3:42 PM PDT

curl4life

NO

  • 09.29.2009 3:43 PM PDT

Holland!

nah it would be stupid, just forget the brutes in reach, also in the campaign..

Yes, I would love to have the option to play as a brute in multiplayer.

  • 09.29.2009 3:58 PM PDT

This would be great as an option. To the people who say they weren't in CE, MM isn't canon. To people who don't like it, you aren't required to make your character model a brute.
Heres a list of possible armors:

.Brute grunt (default)
.Brute minor (default)
.Stalker
.Cheiftan
.Fuel rod Cheiftan (yes they look different than regular cheiftans)
