...And when i am standing there, watching as the slingshot is cranked back into the shadows, a smile will bestow upon my face as I softly whisper one word..."blam...."

some people are talking about there should be elites AND the apes.

what do you think? personally i think brutes are stupid and should stay out of reach. plus, they were not in the book "fall of reach" during the battle for the planet. soooo....post some replys and lets talk about it!

But Brutes have been around since the first battle of Harvest, and that was pretty much the start of the war.

I say yes, Brutes should be in FOR.

I'd like a more advance version of the Halo 2 Brutes in there to be honest, they were way more brutish than in Halo 3, I'd like them to be Brutish in Halo: Reach.

The game is not based off the book. Noble-1, sierra-259, sierra-320... none of these people/things are in the book. That leaves an easy way to include brutes. Unfrtunately, it also leaves an easy way of getting rid of the elites... but mos lkely they will both be in the game.

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

I don't see why people keep making repeat threads about having Brutes in Reach, its been discussed several times.

Do you want brutes in MM?

Do you want Brutes or Elites in Reach?

APES OR DINOS???

Seriously, I can't believe im saying this, but search bar, its actually really useful, instead of making a thread about what "Brute Pimp" was all about, I just found the main thread by searching.

If they're in the game, they should be kept to an ABSOLUTE minimum. Elites should be the main fighting force, with as little amount of Brutes supporting them as possible.

Elites are too, but did you not see the Halo: Legends First episode? In Halo wars the brutez were awesome, I want both of them, Halo: Reach is a FPS I know -.-

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!

If we are to see Brutes we would be playing as Spartans we have never met before since the Spartans we do know had never actually encountered Brutes until Operation First Strike.
The Spartans who may have seen Brutes on Reach could've died before passing on the intel.

I would like to see the Halo 2 brutes in reach. well they did look like -blam!- but i liked there behavior in 2.

-how they would use the Human weapons
- and there rage rush was better in halo 2
. in halo 3 they go Arrrrgh and slap you, halo 2 in comparison try back you in to a corner an punch out all your blood

The less than a second latency of online play is a better system to play off of than more health.

You realize this system is just as host based, right? because if you're fighting host, or someone with a better connection to host, and you each start firing at the same time, his BULLETS will register first, giving him slightly more health if the melees happen at the same time.

So would you rather have the BS of both, or just one?

Restore elites to their former glory (the quasi-mainstay unit/ maybe take a note from the Brute Chieftains and make some awesome sword elites/ super decked out heavy weapon elites).

Then leave brutes as a somewhat pumped up version of their halo 2 selves. Maybe have the occasional hammer equipped chieftain but the rest should just be special weapon teams (think maulers/ brute shots) and maybe let them have their jump packs.

Nah, brutes get naked half way through the fight (they lose theirs shields permanently when they go down) while elites just take a pounding and keep coming back for more (you can seriously waste complete roomfuls of weapons on some elites and still have them just pop back to full shields and be ready for another go).

The only great brutes are the jump pack ones and the chieftains, the rest are just cruel reminders that bungie wanted to replace the old mainstay unit (Elites) with bullet sponges with a shiny layer around them.

i hope there are elites.

Both definatley, but have the brutes like they were in halo 2 because they were more brutish and fun to fight, plus it was kinda funny how retarded they acted

As mush as I dislike brutes, I want them to be in Reach. It would be cool seeing Elites and Brutes fighting along side each other.

  • 10.07.2009 9:47 PM PDT

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

I want them in addition to Elites.

  • 10.07.2009 9:47 PM PDT

Brutes and Elites could add an interesting dynamic if you could somehow play them off on one another.

The best moments in Halo:CE were those 3 way battles. Catch my drift?
