Subject: A Solution For Elites (and Brutes?) In Multiplayer

Signatures are for squares.

Too much time for a pointless feature.

Waste of resources.

Brutes are NOT 8 feet, maybe 7 '3'.
Actually, 8.9 - 9.2 ft.

I wish Bungie would embrace the differences instead of balancing them.

Elites should be bigger, they should have no HUD; Brutes should have a rage mode... That would actually make me want to play as them atleast sometimes.

Even moreso, when the differences would clearly be there, people wouldn't speculate about hitboxes and dinosaurs. Bungie could lock certain gametypes for certain races. Spartans VS Elites (VS Brutes) gametype FTW
This is Halo, everything is balanced, smartass.

You can never succeed if you never try.

They could just have everyone play as a spartan, that way no one can complain about hit boxes anymore. That's what i would like.

impossible is just a word

Spartans are actually shorter in their Mark V armor.

Mark V - Chief was 6 ft.
Mark VI - Chief is magically 7ft.


Two reason why your wrong
1: in halo 2 (when mk V1 was introduced they wanted the cheif to look more powerful
2: Bigger boots maybe huh you retard it isn't magic

omg not realistic stop game production plz

Very good idea. I've supported Brutes for MP since I heard that Bungie was supposed to be working them into Halo 3's MP (I heard this before H3's release, and was a bit disappointed to see them not as a MP player model).

my old account "gamegeknee" was hacked and thats why I had to make a new login name.

Wouldn't making them the same height make it more balanced. I don't see how making elites shorter than spartans would make the game more balanced. They should be essentially the same as far as height and where their heads are.

What's the problem with them all being different heights?
People complaining about their size being an advantage/disadvantage, when faced with: Headshots, hit-boxes, jumping, et cetera.

As long as they can be used, and may be remotely equal in most of their ways, I'll be OK with it.

Maybe those people who complain should just admit that they suck at Halo and get over it. I'll be fine with whatever Bungie decides to do, though.

If only they could accept that.

I could really care less how they turn out, the only thing about that I do care about is Variation.

More choices and the ability too add more(if possible)

stfu you -blam!- idiot if you "could care less" then you care alot about it you mean you couldn't care less because then you would be at 0 caring. If you mean what you say you care as much as X in this equation 0<X so any where from .000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000000000000000001 (even less) to infinite

Many people think that the Elites in Halo 3 and Halo 2 look too hunched over and not as cool as the Elites from Halo 1.

What I am suggesting is that they make Spartans just a little taller, and Elites and Brutes (if they are in multiplayer, which I hope happens) would be just a bit shorter.

This wouldn't be very noticeable at all and since Reach is a completely new game its not like it would look weird at all (in other words, the Halo 3 Spartans aren't getting stretched, the Reach Spartans are just taller).


By doing this, Bungie would make Elites (and Brutes too) look cooler and more desirable to play as and also making them balanced.


I just want to be able to headshot elites from the back without having to jump up for an angle.

1. Yes, the Brutes were in the Covenant at that time, moron.

2. It's quite possible that there were a few Brutes guarding certain assets. The Prophets were already very much wanting to replace the Elites with the Brutes anyway.

Check out The Game Lounge

There will not be any brutes in Reach. Good idea though

brutes are stuipid

I'm really looking forward for reach and I do hope they put brutes in the mix also. As for balancing issues (if any)with the height i agree with making the Spartans taller,but truth be told it doesn't matter.The people who moan about advantages/disadvantages are the same people who say security is bad because of its bulk or scout for the pointy helmet. I think having brutes and elites far outweighs such small things such as an extra 4 inches.

Spartans are around 7 feet tall and Elites are slightly taller but more graceful. And Brutes are well Brutes about 8 feet tall and super powerful.


Um, I don't know what you've been reading. The Spartan is the most efficient quick and graceful killer there is. The Spartan and the Elite are rivals. It may not show in the game, but you should try getting into the fiction. The Fall of Reach explains everything you could want to know about the Spartan, and where they came from.
