1. Elites have been around since the beginning. I was playing the original Xbox when Halo CE rocked the console world. And as we all know, Elites were the main protagonists in the game. We didnt know about Brutes or Prophets or any of that. Elites were the reason mankind was in the situation it was. (At least as far as we knew)
2. Elites are harder to kill. They have the regenerative shield that only gives you a narrow opportunity to kill the inhabiter. Where as the Brutes have an armor system that breaks down, leaving the inhabiter completely vuernable for an infinite amount of time. So once you break down they brutes shield, a single shot with a pistol or a BR will kill them, even if its 20 minutes later. The elites need to be taken down as soon as their shields break.
3. Elites seem more tactical. i feel like everytime i fight brutes, its the same thing. They gather in groups of two or three (with the brute chieftan chillin in the back) firing their spikers. Then one would say a stupid comment and throw a spike grenade. This can go on and on until i finally become bored and turn of my xbox. I swear when im figting elites i have to be much more tactical. Some of the chase and flank and seem genuinely vicious.
4. Elites are just more badass. They have cooler armor, are true warriors, and actually have a sense of honor. What do the brutes have? Fur. Lots and lots of fur.

I agree with you. Fighting Elites was different everytime. They wouldn't do the same thing everytime, but Brutes always stand in groups waiting to be blown up or sniped.

I would like to fight BOTH in Reach, that would be the best. But I must admit that I thoroughly enjoyed having the elites as allies in halo 3.

that would be really interesting. Brutes and Elites have never gotten along so exactly how would they get along when it comes to the combat line? Im sure Bungie would make it interesting and somewhat funny as well
