Even the greatest were once at the bottom.

You could add ranks like Admiral, Admiral of the fleet (seeing as how halo's story is based on a Space navy.

And for elites you could have Shipmaster.


I wouldn't say Ship Master. It's a secondary name. The rank for the one ship an Elite commands. The Fleet Master would be more like what your talking about.

Ship Master/Ship Mistress (for the females)

Ever since Halo 3 I wondered why elites got spartan ranks, so yeah I love the idea. I never understood why bungie did not put this in halo 3, their were people asking for this in the halo 3 beta forum....

Ya, me too. That's why I'm trying to get this message to people.

Firstly, they should definately add different ranks for Elites. It would be a nice little detail to add to the game.

Secondly, they're not going to make Brutes playable in multiplayer. The Brutes are just way too big. If you thought the whining about the Elites' hitboxes was bad, just imagine the nerdy screams if people had to play against Brutes in matchmaking. The forums would be unusable.

Thirdly, are we even so sure Brutes will be in Reach?

Maybe I'll include that in the next forum posted.

War, War never changes.

Got my Recon from the Vidmaster achievments, like most.
Reach IS awesome, don't deny it

Very good idea, It should be implemented into Reach. This would also lead to the unlocking of more armour for Elites, like Spartans in Halo 3 now.

Do you think so? Well I was thinking that too because in Halo CE & 2 you see Elites with different ranks wearing much different headdresses and helmets.
What if they let you unlock these helmets?

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

It would be nice to have actually NOT be a Brigadier as an Elite.

General Thel 'Vadamee

Personally I think

Thel 'Vadamee, Supreme Commander Fleet Master Zealot of the Combined Fleet of Particular Justice

sounds much better.

The rank of an Arbiter is most resembled to a UNSC 4 Star General.

You just got Shakespeared!

Only if it can be like if your playing as a spartan your rank well be separate from your elite one, but it will show it on your profile screen on the side.

Meh, I don't know about 2 ranks showing up.

I just don't understand.

Nobody has said any disagreements about my idea but they still voted: No.
It's all right if you have a reason to tell me why you think this is not a good idea. It's just an opinion anyway.

I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

Actually, this is a pretty good idea.

Were it so easy.

I agree, but add some ranks for Brutes too.

  • 10.15.2009 3:52 PM PDT

Are you talking about in campaign?
As in you can level a character up like in an RPG?

This Forum is a serious Forum. I want Bungie to do this.
Ask me questions so I can perfect this idea.
