In halo reach i know that it takes place before halo ce. and during that time the covenant still used the elites and not the brutes. so i hope with reach they bring more tactical elites.


but also brutes are under tartaruses command and they protect prophets which are still alive during this time. so what do you guys think will happen. discuss? (and if im totally wrong about everything plz be nice ^^)

I think You'll end up fighting Elites most of the time, but near the end Brutes might be introduced as a part of the Climax near the end of the game as added enemies. (like in halo 2)

Plus, go back and play Halo 2 and fight an elite. A much harder experience than a brute. They fight and move in completely different ways.

elites :
"omg my shield is about to drop." *takes cover and pops up once shields are up*
once shields are down, they still take cover and wait till they go up again.
brutes :
"omg my shields is about to drop. whatever >:D" *stands still, power armor falls off, doesn't move one bit for 5 seconds before considering taking cover"
once shields are down, they dont come back.

guess which one is better to fight?

Definatly the Brutes. Without a doubt.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Brutes are too easy, Elites are a challenge, they truly are covenant and it was a big mistake for the prophets to betray them. I hope we do fight Elites in Halo: Reach, otherwise the story would be ruined.

hum, the brutes just let you kill them. there is fun, no challenge. they're boring. elites > brutes any day.
and their berserk mode sucks compared to a raging gold elite with a sword.

I'm currently playing Halo CE and I almost forgot that the Elites can beat the crap out of the chief in seconds, unless you know there weakness.

you know actually. i have no idea howd they do this give me ideas guys. but what if one mission you are attacking the brutes. then another mission you are fending off an invasion of elites. i think thatd be the best becasue itd give u a great mixture of fighting styles which it hink would benefit the game

I'm mostly of the opinon that if you miss the obvious, oh well.

Fine though, I will blatantly state when I am being sarcastic from now on.

Mainly the fact that elites moved faster, took cover, and had regenrating shields made them the funner fighters.

Because Muslims surgically implant organic bombs in their testicles, which in turn will be injected into women during sex, which will grow into BABY BOMBS!

How about we fight them both at the same time ...... Fight the entire covenant arsenal of soldiers in one massive fight. The field would be covered in elites, brutes, hunters, grunts, jackals, and drones, and minor prophets all attacking you in the same battle.
