And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

-Thanks to Rocket Turtle for pointing out my typing follies.

i think the halo wars covenant look stupid. are they freaking anorexic? how thin are they around the middle?
i think we should just let bungie's artists do their stuff; they'll do a better job than anyone who was at ensemble

i think they should all be in it the grunt honor gaurds look awesome and they could have normal elites but also elite brute forms like in halo wars. mabey there on some kind of alien steroids?

Because Muslims surgically implant organic bombs in their testicles, which in turn will be injected into women during sex, which will grow into BABY BOMBS!

"Eyes from Death's dream kingdom appear as sunlight on a broken column. There, in Death's other kingdom, walking alone, trembling lips form prayers to broken stone."

I think the elites should look like this

to be honest, I think a sort of compromise between the two would be excellent. the halo wars grunts are cool, and slightly scary, while the halo 3 grunts are just... funny, even in appearances.

the halo wars elites were awesome, but the waists were ridiculous. the halo 2/3 elites were too thin, and their hunches made them look less intimidating.

I think what we really need is some truly scary enemies. brutes, if implemented, should be huge, berserk monsters, not stupid apes. elites should be tall, bulky and alien, not hunched dinosaurs. the jackals are just about perfect as they are, and the grunts need to be less funny and more just plain stupid, only being funny with the IWHBYD skull on.

Halo Wars ones got to admit they look awesome. Look like skinny terminators.

I agree, the covenant need to definitely look more menacing and evil, as they pretty much exterminated every human they crossed paths with.

Great minds discuss ideas

Average minds discuss events

Small minds discuss people

I would kill to see a meaner Covenant in Reach. Both canges would make for an actualy fearful fight

I like these ideas.

Honestly, the Halo Wars Elites looked too much like Predators, and the claws look retarded.

And the Halo Wars Grunts? Don't even get me started.

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.

Elites should refer back to the way they looked in Halo CE and Halo 2, tall and elegant. The bulky dino look is retarded.

This is what they should have looked like in Halo 3

And I stand firm that until they look like THAT I will not be pleased.

I concur completely.
