This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. We are eternal.
All this pain is an illusion.

Sure, make the game predominantly elites, but there is nothing wrong with a couple of brute packs being deployed to help the elites as the game goes on.
I mean, face it, the brutes are much more adept than the elites at close range combat. They move faster, their weaponry is more geared towards close range combat, and they are meatshields.
Elites on the other hand are more of a medium range combat race. The reason why Halo 3 was pretty easy is that most the enemies that would shoot at you from medium range were the jackals, and it took a single headshot to take them out. The elites? Not so much. Their withering carbine fire will keep you under cover and once the brutes get around that cover its over, it would be a termendous challenge, something worthy for Bungie's final entry in the Halo universe for the forseeable future.
I agree there should be some Brutes in there, but they should be tougher, more like a combination of Halo 2 and 3.
And the elites would provide a better challenge I think, doesn't anyone remember how much of a pain it was to face a Halo:CE Gold Elite with a plasma rifle on Legendary?
