I don't want to be in your group quit spamming me

Bungie, you guys should release a short vidoc kind of like "Et Tu Brute", only it's about elites and how you changed them. i would love you forever! Besides didn't "Et TU Brute" come out further from halo 3's release than this would from reach?

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

I would like that, but Elites really don't need a change. Elites are exactly what their name implies: elite. Brutes were meant to fill the Elites role in Halo 2 when the civil war started, which literally meant taking elites out and putting brutes in.
While there was a brute pack in Halo 2, it was more like a large grouping of independent elites running around. In Halo 3, the pack mentality is enforced, which is why we get grenades spammed at us, brutes that try and flank us, and stuff like that.
Elites operate alone, for the most part, and that doesn't need to change.

yeah but what i want to see is the few changes they probably made to them, and new things they do, because i'm sure the A.I. has increased so much since halo 2. For example if a grunt starts to run away maybe they'll pick him up and yell at him or throw him or something.

or maybe he could pick up a grunt and use it as a shield. (whether it's fleeing, dead or just standing there minding it's own bussiness)

I'd love to here what they are doing to all the Covenant units, which ones are being scrapped, which ones will be back, etc.

I must agree strongly. Having nothing but a single teaser to look at is driving me a little crazy. There are other things to life and all that, but I will ineviably come back on the internet to see what's new about Bungie. And y'know what hasn't changed? Reach trailers. There's just one. Not even Reach pictures. Thus the agitation.

Anyway, yes. I think a ViDoc about the elites is a splendid idea. A way to welcome them back and show that they're going to become impressive adversaries once more. They weren't much as allies in Halo 3, so it'll be great if they get an upgrade in that department too.
Y'know what I think I'd like to see? Dual-sword elites. Zealots with that extra zealous zeal. They had that one animation shown in Et tu, Brute?, but it wasn't ever enacted in Halo 3.
