"This is for the Chief....wherever the hell he is"
--Sgt. Avery Johnson, Firefight

"This is for HARVEST...that's right I got a long memory"
--Sgt. Avery Johnson, Firefight

I don't visit the Reach forum too often. So forgive me if this has been discussed. But remember in Halo CE the Elites spoke their own language and through the course of the war I assume they just learned English (??), maybe the Huragoks helped out with that, intel purposes. Would anyone else like for them to speak their own language in Reach and have it subtitled?

We are pretty confident we'll be getting Elites back in Reach right...RIGHT?

come to think of it that would take a helluva lot of work, I know they have WORT WORT WORT and a few others phrases, but not an entire language...could be cool though...

Long live the Last Refuge!

They didn't learn English, we got translator programs.

Indeed, we hear the Sangheili speak English through some sort of 'voice translator', I believe it wasn't as effectively developed around the time of Reach. So we'll hopefully be hearing more "WORT WORT WORT".

Just enjoy the damn game!
Who cares about BR vs AR

I'm just hoping we hear one "Wort Wort Wort". Even if its an Easter Egg.
