Get out of my signature.

Well...

... maybe we can but...

... if Bungie cuts out the brutes they will also have to cut out the following stuff...


-brute shot (no crap)
-spiker
-mauler (I don't know if I spelled it correctly)
-grav. hammer
-chopper
-prowler ( I'm ok with that)
-spike grenade
-fire bomb grenade
-all equipment but the grav lift, deployable cover,and auto turret

***I DON'T LIKE BRUNTS AT ALL. I JUST THINK BUNGIE WON'T CUT MOST OF THESE OUT***

We should know better, because we are better.

We will survive.
Bungie cut the energy sword,BR and all equipment in ODST and we're fine.

Oh no.

You mean all the weapons that easily have a counterpart or could have a replacement like that?

And equipment, the worst thing to happen to the game since dual wielding?

Say it ain't so.

  • 11.01.2009 10:47 AM PDT

great point, that makes me wonder how many new items and weapons and equipment will be in reach if they do decide to cut the brutes.

In Halo 2 they were terrible.

In Halo 3 they were wannabe Elites.

Face it, no matter what Bungie does, these guys don't work.

I haz cookies.

Even bungie themselves didnt like the halo 2 brutes lol. They stated they were "Just damage sponges" and "no fun to fight"

  • 11.01.2009 10:59 AM PDT

Anything is possible when you are a Spy!

Screw Brutes, I wanna fight Elites again.
I remember Elites in CE and H2 would actually DODGE your shots and grenades. Brutes just duck and cover and think in their little computer minds that they'll survive.

  • 11.01.2009 11:34 AM PDT

They probably will cut the brutes since thet where not a part of the covenant invasion force in the fall of reach so... yeah
with them goes allot of weapons... Unless they want 2 twist the stoey just 2 add brutes..

Brutes won't be cut because there are too many people wanting to see how elites and brutes fight alongside eachother.

Thats only 2 games + in halo 3 they were the main enemy. You couldn't exactly have really powerful enemies at every corner.

Equipment shouldn't be removed it should be refined.

The brute chopper was a good vehicle as was the grav hammer.

The Halo 3 Martyrdom

-brute shot (no crap)
-spiker
-mauler (I don't know if I spelled it correctly)
-grav. hammer
-chopper
-prowler ( I'm ok with that)
-spike grenade
-fire bomb grenade
-all equipment but the grav lift, deployable cover,and auto turret

DON'T JUST READ THE LAST ONE. EVERY BODY IS DOING THAT.


Brute Shot: Crappy weapon. Does very little damage and the only thing it is really good for is for killing packs of Grunts and Jackals.
Spiker: After the Halo 3 Beta, the Spiker is useless. Just another SMG. We already have a Plasma Rifle.
Mauler: Over-powered and will make the game too easy. Good that it disappears.
Gravity Hammer: Again, another crappy weapon. Just a replacement for the Energy Sword in Halo 3.
Chopper: If the Chopper was in Halo 3, it would use Spikers. The chopper is powerful now, but give it spikers instead of its current weapon and it will more likely lead to your death than anything else.
Prowler: Did anyone even use this at all in Halo 3?
Spike Grenade: Yeah, it sucks that this would disappear. But we lived with frag and plasma grenades for the first two games.
Firebomb: Over powered. By far.
Equipment: No explanation required.

Eat raw meat.
Punch a bear in the face.


If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

The Gravity Hammer, Chopper, and Brute Shot would be all that I'd miss. Equipment can still be used by Elites, spike grenades aren't as good as plasma grenades, fire bombs are cool but not necessary, spikers are an SMG ripoff, and Prowlers aren't as cool as Spectres (No boost? WTF?!).

Spike Grenade: Yeah, it sucks that this would disappear. But we lived with frag and plasma grenades for the first two games.
Firebomb: Over powered. By far.
Equipment: No explanation required.

Brute Shot: It can kill people in four shots, it's a pretty good close range weapon, kinda like an explosive shotgun without being to cheap.
Spiker: It has it's good points, and it's far more effective against shieldless foes then the SMG, plus the added melee damage is a good bonus.
Mauler: Agreed.
Gravity Hammer: Yeah, but they're pretty fun to use, and it adds an extra field of gameplay when you can throw dumpsters at people, plus it's a good anti vehicle weapon so it's not exactly like the sword.
Chopper: The Chopper is pretty awesome, I'd take it over a Ghost, and sometimes a Warthog (Depends on the situation)
Prowler: Agreed, but it's still a good vehicle, not as used as the Specter like it should have been.
Spike Grenade: Agreed
Firebomb: Agreed
Equipment: Agreed

we dont know the story, so how can they change it. before you say we play through the book, you dont know that. granted the brutes werent present on reach, but mabey the characters escape

  • 11.01.2009 12:19 PM PDT

Why does everyone want another Halo CE?

Brute shot, mauler, grav hammer, spiker, spike grenade, all pretty good fun to use. Equipment is good aswell, changes things up a bit. Chopper is a good vehicle, prowlers are a decent alternative, it's just that they're always put next to a warthog, so which are people going to pick? Firebombs are awesome. Rather than remove things, just give everything a clear advantage.

[Marcus starts ad-libbing the first verse]
Mike Lowery: Dude, you gotta learn the words.
Marcus Burnett: We usually only do the chorus

i think although we dont need them in campaign AT ALL WE DONT WANT BRUTES
i think we should have the brute weapons available in forge and gametype customization,i dont want grifball to die

Sending me a group invite or some kind of other pointless, time wasting advert gets you blocked. Don't bother wasting your time. kthnxbai

So just put these things in to multiplayer? Just because they wouldn't fit in to the campaign doesn't mean that they can't just be placed in to multiplayer.
