READ THIS before you vote!!!

first of all lets address some things.
Q :Why were elites a part of halo 2 and 3's multiplayer
A : in halo 2 and 3 you are allied up with the elites. so it doesnt make since to be fight against the side of an elite in reach because it happens before all halo games!

Q : how come elites look badass in halo 1 but not in halo 2 and 3
A : well in halo 1 elites stood up tall, were skinny and overall looked more intimidating. but in halo 2 and 3 they had to make them hunch over like a friggin T-rex and make them fat so they were about the same size as a spartan, thus making it fair to have them for use in multiplayer.

Q : well I love being and elites, but i think it would be cool if they did go back to being tall and skinny...but what would that do to multiplayer.
A: well sadly...these are our choices...

1: Have cool, scary, tall and skinny elites in Halo: reach's campaign, and NO elites in multiplayer.

or

2: have dino style, fat, ugly hunchbacked elites in campaign and also in multiplayer.

so the choice is No elites in mulitplayer or have the stupid hunched elites (*sigh*...once again)in multiplayer.


vote and discus.

Vancouver BC, Canada.

I vote to rid of the wretched things.

If we play as Spartans in multiplayer, I'm sure Elites will be the secondary playable. And its been rumored that since in Halo 3, Bungie tried to get Brutes as a playable character, but it was scrapped because it was taking too long, that they could be the third playable character in multiplayer for Halo: Reach. Which would be sweet.

Here's what I think.

Class-based combat.

So, do you mean something along the lines of a CoD type of game? Play as whatever race you want with their own racial abilities, weakness, strengths and add-ons for the weapons. I think it'd tick off a lot of Halo fans, but hey, sounds interesting to me..somewhat...

  • 10.07.2009 6:40 PM PDT

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

It wouldn't work, everyone would just be a spartan

Well, actually I mean something like the Battlefield games. Classes with their own weaknesses, strengths, and weapons, like you said.

Not necessarily, if the abilities are nicely balanced out, along with their weapon add-ons, it could be pretty balanced. However, I don't expect this and rather this style stay with Infinity Wards. But this is getting off topic.

How would you guys feel if the Reach had a third playable character and it was other a Marine, ODST or a Brute?

And Brutes!

Just cause they arent in campaign, doesn't mean that they aren't playable in multiplayer.

I'm gonna see what I can think of the classes being.

UNSC COVENANT
Heavy Mgalekgolo (Spelling?)
Soldier Sangheili
Technician Unggoy (maybe)
Sniper Kig 'Yar (Spelling?)
Demolitions Jiralhanea (Spelling?)

I can't think of any more classes.

R3M1AN SUPR3M3

if they all balanced out then wats te point exactly it would just b about the size and look no point in putting time into this when bungie could put valuable time into something else

  • 10.07.2009 6:58 PM PDT

Couldn't they just make the tall awesome elites in MM smaller?

  • 10.08.2009 9:31 AM PDT

Eight Gauge Hippo!

other: tall halo 1 elites but resized to fit multiplayer but keep the normal size in single player/co-op.

(didnt notice some one posted pretty mutch the same above lol)

Look, a half monkey half pony monster!

You can't just vote to get rid of them because half the time you get your ass kicked by them, people were able to play as elites because people didn't like spartans as much as they liked elites, you should get that into your thick skull and live with it until you die!

  • 10.08.2009 9:53 AM PDT

All you need is a well placed grenade :)

The Elites will not be removed i can guarantee that lol. If you dont like the elite dont play it. If you cant kill one, get a bigger gun :D happy hunting

Well reach takes place when john was only a teen, so I dont think they will ally with elites...

You dont have to be allied in campaign to play something in multiplayer lol

  • 10.08.2009 10:28 AM PDT

I want elites with games, darn it! Or possibly an energy spear instead of a katana!

What is class-based combat?

  • 10.08.2009 10:50 AM PDT

Yes it is spelt like that on purpose.

I have played as an elite since the first days of halo 2, so yes I would like them to stay in multiplayer.
