"Dual"-wielding.

And no, wielding a single one-hit-kill weapon is enough. More is not better.

Lol and I thought it was scary to face a chieftan charging me. How bout a sword dualwielding elite droping in a drop pod, kicking his way out, and stabbing me in the junk???

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

I dont agree with the first part of the post but i agree with the second one. Whats the point of having two when one does the same as far as gameplay goes?

It may look good on a elite, thats cause there made for that race, On a spartan haha would look laughable.

Its not so much the point. Its intimidation. There have been elites that dualwielded before, and it looks pretty bad ass if I may say so myself. Besides, its not like its a new concept

thats why its only for the elites NOT the spartans

  • 10.11.2009 2:52 PM PDT

Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed, knowing better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives: not men, for flags.
"The Next War"

I think this is a good idea because it will add a new flavor to campaign play. Having a squad of these guys come down in drop pods in front of you and your squad of Spartans (if that is in the game play) would be such an intense battle. Especially if we could counter-attack with the combat knives always strapped to our chestplate, that we never get to use.

Were it so easy.

Sure! Maybe the Arbiter or high ranking Elites? It would be badass like Halo Wars.

Looking fancy and badass gets you nowhere in combat. Ever seen Indianna Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark? Remember the scimitar guy? Remember what happened to him?
