Subject: Brutes

"We jump Feet First into Hell"
"Spartans don't die, they're just missing in action"

wait, so what's this talk about "races" in the game. I can obviously tell they are like: Humans, Elites, and Brutes, ETC. But what happens that gets the Covies all P.O.ed? And 1 other thing, I'd like to play as a Brute, they are pretty cool and I see no problem in downsizing them for Multiplayer.

Because they're r'tards and have no idea how unbalanced they would be.


un balanced how ? it wouldnt matter since your just fighting AI

They would be unbananced in Multiplayer, because Brutes are over 9 feet tall.


wow you really think that bungie would be stupid enough not to re size them in MM no one would be a brute if he was the largest target out on the field.

because brutes rule!!!

if the brutes come, I want them to be like the ones in Halo 2, I hate the Halo 3 brutes... those are not brutes they are just big and weak Elites... the barbarian feeling was lost.

I agree with that, Halo 3 on Legendary was EASY. But in Halo 2 I couldn't defeat a Ultra Elite and a couple of grunts with over 12 plasmas and a highly experienced Halo 2 partner!!!

I hated that bit on Cairo station where one comes out with dual wielded Plasma Rifles. That one was the worst. But all good fun :D
Could you imagine taking on 2-3 Ultras with the Plasma Pistol so downgraded like it is in 3 compared to older versions? You're gonna need all 4 people on Legendary for that.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Because it's a game like Bungie says and doesn't have to follow the exact guide lines of the book and multiplayer doesn't have to have the same stuff as the campaign. So even if there is no Brutes in campaign, they can still be placed in multiplayer to just give players another race to play as.


^_^ a Brute using a Battle rifle? FTW?

I <3 Bungie

They shouldnt be in the game because they only joined the Covenant in Halo 2 or before it , Somewhere between End of Halo:CE and Halo 2 , (I Think)

  • 10.28.2009 7:08 AM PDT

1.Arkham Asylum, 2.Mass Effect, 3.Halo CE, 4.Mass Effect 2, 5.Halo 2, 6.Splinter Cell Double Agent, 7.Gears of War 2, 8.Medievil, 9.Oblivion, 10.Crash Team Racing

Potentionally more = More > Less

They were in the Covenant since the start of the war. Just because the little information we were given about Reach through books, games etc. doesnt mention them on Reach doesnt mean that they werent. We only saw a small portion of a huge battle so there is plenty of scope to put them in the game without breaking canon.

True.
Plus it'll be better fighting them in Reach than in Halo 3

Thinking with Portals since '07

Battlefield 3 sucks.

Because it's another whole set of enemies to kill

Brutes have probably been retconned into general encounters pre-2552

and them having nothing to do with Reach is not canon as it was never stated explicitly


More doesn't necessarily mean better.
