I hate elites. Playing as a spartan makes me all tingly inside.

Elite huggers are just like hardcore tree huggers what the -blam!- do you think the game would be like... Its called reach if there were no marines ODSTs or Spartans then all you would have is a million elites butt raping grunts and brutes

  • 11.07.2009 9:25 PM PDT

that would'nt be very fun for the grunts or the brutes.

  • 11.07.2009 9:29 PM PDT

wait could an elite physically butt -blam!- a brute without being severly beaten and/or killed?

  • 11.07.2009 9:33 PM PDT

Playing as an elite....is like playing as a 90 year old with back problems and a squeaky voice. When they talk/die they sound like chewbacca taking a -blam!-. And if those aren't good enough reasons, WE are HUMAN! Why the hell would we make a game where humans are frowned upon and aliens are preferred??

  • 11.07.2009 9:39 PM PDT

Well you see.....It might be fun. But thats just a thought.

  • 11.07.2009 9:41 PM PDT

I liked the idea of having separate story lines like in halo 2 or halo 3 ODST. So you would play as an Elite then a Spartan then a ODST and so on and so forth.

I want a Recon for Elites. As in do Vidmasters to get the Elite Uber armour.(yet Recon isn't Uber)

  • 11.07.2009 9:51 PM PDT

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.

Destroy All Humans! comes to mind as one of the better games on the original Xbox.

Besides, mindlessly killing humanity in video games is fun!

Almost a ghost.

Same, I hope they remove the Covenant aswell.
And the BR, and the AR.
And the flood.
And anything else that makes Halo Halo.

/sarcasm

Spartans make Halo, they ain't going anywhere.

Actually, ODST proved to everyone that you don't need Spartans to have Halo. They are just one aspect of the game, why can't I get another one?

Iam enjoying Halo Reach and revisiting some past Bungie games, iam a big fan of Bungie and their online community.

The game probably wont sell seeing as the Spartan model has been the main model used for multiplayer since Halo:CE. I guess we should also have to wait to know who the main character is. If we are a Spartan (which all hints point in that direction) it wouldn't be too smart of them, not to have a Spartan in multiplayer.


Agreed.

You can, but not Reach.

The main thing about Reach (Other than the planet falling) is the majority of the Spartans dying defending Reach.

It would make a good story expansion like ODST, but never a fully fledged Halo title.

I know, if you read into page 2 you will see that I was using Reach as an example, and this thread is actually my way of saying "Why all the Elite hate? What would you do if someone wanted YOU removed from the game?"

Ah right, I just read the title and OP.
Well I don't think Elites should be removed, they're the coolest aliens I can think of.

Except maybe Yautja (Predator)

Despite that Elites are almost a Carbon Copy ripoff of the Predator?

I meant the films, haha.

"NO covenant are going to glass mombasa then the whole planet, just like reach all over again! covenant bastards!"

just a guess

WORT WORT WORT

all men are equal, except i am more equal than you because i am alive and you are dead

I wouldn't buy this game that is clearly designed at 5 year old's that like running around as turkeys on steroids called dino's that like to say "wort wort wort" and "BLARRRRRGH".

so what you are saying that if this happens bungie is making a game based on red vs blue and all the main character can say is "blarg" and "honk" and is on an epic quest to save his species i'd play it just for the fun of it(and bedause i am a big RvB fan)

First of all, I love Elites are are my favorite covenant race. However I don't want them in matchmaking, or having their own playable campaign, because it really had an impact on thier whole appearance and style.

My avatar, the Energy Sword, shows how much I like them.

-Playing as one kind of ruined their whole mysteriousness and eerieness. (i.e. speaking English instead of "wort wort wort")
-Shrunk down to have crippled backs. Look like dinos.
-Stupid death noises
-Elites using human weapons just looks dumb, as well as driving warthogs and mongooses.
