EXTREME PREJUDICE

The Brutes were in the Covenant during the events at Reach.

You can count on them being enemies in campaign.

  • 10.08.2009 8:33 PM PDT

Let me guess, Brutes are in "The Fall Of Reach"?

  • 10.08.2009 8:35 PM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

Just because you didn't see them until Halo 2 doesn't mean they weren't part of the Covenant at the time.

  • 10.08.2009 8:35 PM PDT

No, they are in "Contact Harvest". :P

Brutes were at Harvest, they were a part of the Covenant way before the events of Reach.

I still don't want to see Brutes in Reach though, the main enemy better be Elites.

Brutes and Drones were assimilated into the Covenant before first contact with humanity. There is evidence that Drones are not "new" enemies, just enemies not fought in Halo: Combat Evolved. Brutes were unheard of because they were in the working caste as the back-breaking labourers, with the occasional purpose otherwise.

They are always there for Bungie to inject into the canon.

I'd like to see Elites and Brutes, and perhaps signs of the rift between the two lots.

Brutes were around for a long time. Hell, it was because of a fallout during a 'diplomatic' meeting in Harvest with the Brutes, that truly started the war.

I would love to have them both in the game for the varied gameplay styles.

brutes werent in "fall of reach" though so it would mess the plot line up

Non Nobis Nascimur - We are not born for ourselves.

The main enemy should be Elites, but it would be nice to have Brutes put in for certain parts.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME GROUP INVITATIONS

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Brutes and Drones were in the Covenant long before Halo 1 and Halo Reach. We just didn't see them in Halo 1 because they were not a part of the Arbiter's fleet.

That is assuming this game is about Halo: The Fall of Reach rather than the battle of Reach. Which is probably false.

  • 10.08.2009 10:14 PM PDT

sure brutes were in the covenant then but the campaign against reach was led by elites specifically so itll be more like halo 1 and 2

  • 10.08.2009 10:26 PM PDT

yea brutes actually started the human covanent war

  • 10.08.2009 10:26 PM PDT

Were it so easy.

If your gonna attack an idea because of story, a pro tip would be to actually know the story.

This.

They were in the one of the books I'm quite sure, and in Halo Wars.

  • 10.08.2009 10:32 PM PDT

I wish I was still legendary.

They were at Harvest, I can see them being used on Reach as shock troops.

For Eff's Sake, Halo: Reach is not a Book-Game adaptation of Halo: "The Fall of Reach"

You know how Reach 'fell' in that book? Halo: Reach is about THAT!, Not the book.

It'll have new characters and cover things that happened on Reach that you did not read in the book.

The characters from the book did not meet Brutes. Doesn't mean they were not there.

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

Brutes only started reemerging after Regret's assassination.

Brutes were active when Regret was still alive. They were on the "Uneven Elephant" (Bad Sgt. Johnson Joke. Read the books), which was heading to Earth.

Most of you would hate me for using this example but they were also deployed to the Shield World where The Apex was, alongside the Elites in Halo Wars.

What? They weren't in Halo Wars... Unless you're talking about those timeline events which I didn't bother to collect.
