Elites will be in the Beta.

I hope they're not. They weren't in Halo 3 beta either and I would like the fact if they weren't at all in Multiplayer considering they're not our allies at all in this game.

my old account "gamegeknee" was hacked and thats why I had to make a new login name.

If they're gonna be in the game I think they should be in the Beta for sure. That way if there are any problems they will find out.

They weren't very friendly for all of Halo 2 (excluding the last level) so I don't see how that's a reason to exclude them from Multiplayer. I sincerely hope Reach shall include Elites in MP.

Yes, why shouldn't they be?

Bungie should focus on new spartan armor types instead of Elites.

Why? What makes Spartans so much better than Elites?

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.

Yes, this will help in avoiding complaints about the Elite player model upon the release of the game.

If they have ANYTHING to complain about it will be their own fault for not mentioning anything in the Beta.

How does that apply in ANY way, you're saying it makes more sense to shoot and kill ALLIES than ENEMIES?

There weren't any Elites in the Halo 3 Beta because bungie didn't want to ruin the surprise of playable elites. I'm sure there will be playable Elites in the Reach Beta, and maybe a new race......:)

What do you mean surprise? Halo TWO had playable Elites, why would they be surprising in Halo THREE?

TRIPLE POST!

Yeah, and you're completely biased. I mean, your model is an Elite.

So are you, you play as a Spartan. Nothing I said was Pro-Elite, I just said:

1: It would help lower complaints about Elites

2: Shooting Allies makes less sense than shooting Enemies

and 3: There was no surprise because the PREVIOUS GAME had Elites.


Did that sound pro-Elite to you? No, it was just a combination of helpful input, and rebuttal.

Also: Quoting people makes it harder to not double+post, it is everyone else's fault for not posting fast enough, I even WAIT A MINUTE OR TWO before hitting the submit button sometimes.

Wrong. I play as both equally. A Spartan is just what I played as last.

I highly doubt you play both equally, there is no way to prove either side so it isn't worth getting into, but I still garantee you do spend more of your time on the Spartan model.

  • 11.15.2009 10:21 PM PDT

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.”

Really? You're so biased toward Elites you have developed a defender complex? 'Everyone else is using Spartans! They never change to Elites!'

Um, no.

I DO play as an Elite. I've loved the Flight armor since I first saw it. I'm a Spawn fan, and it has a resemblance, so I jumped on it.

How is that biased? I am used to being harassed SO CONSTANTLY by Spartan players, and it is well known that most players that bounce back and forth either settle on Spartan or simply use it more (an effect of the much larger quantity of armor).

You said you play them equally, and like I said it CANNOT be proven, and is NOT WORTH ARGUING OVER.

You said you play them equally, and now you contradict yourself to say you play as an Elite more, just to argue with me. Even after I said it CANNOT be proven, and is NOT WORTH ARGUING OVER.
Actually, I didn't mean that at all. I'm not trying to start an e-fight, I just think it's silly that you think Elites are such a minority. True, more players are Spartans, but this forum alone is proof that the community has plenty of Elite players. Truthfully, my average would be about 60% for Spartans, 40% Elites, but I DO use them. And not just for SWAT, I mean I actually use them because I think they're cool. Honestly, almost all Halo races/factions/armors are cool.

Sorry you get harassed though. That sucks. I wore Hayabusa for a long time, so I know what you mean.

Yeah, its alright. But although the community has a large quantaty of Elite players, that community is nothing in size compared to the Spartan players. Bungie's records are 1 in 10, but that is counting people that only change for Swat (which unfortunately is around 60% of Elite players).

It would be more realistic to say 1 in 20 or 25 players is an Elite.

If that isn't minority I don't know what is.

And whats more, there is an Elite-Hater community almost half the size of the Elite community! It really sucks that it is like that.
