Ok so for the last few weeks i've been studying hitboxes, and i've discovered that this, along with Recon, ODST, and the BR, are the number 1 source of halo players whining.
Hitboxes should not be a factor in deciding which character you choose, nor should they even be worried about. Hitboxes just limit the amount of character sizes we could have for multiplayer, and people are just relishing in not having a change to the halo series. Change is good, and if you don't like change what do you do? You go back to dual wielding needlers in Halo 2.
For instance, let's say you could play as brutes in multiplayer in Halo Reach--Naturally brutes would be slower but have more melee, right? Yet, you guys are whining because their hitboxes would be too large and easy to kill. There's a solution to this: 1. make the hitbox equal to spartans and elites, and 2. Just leave it as is. One of the reasons we have multiple characters is so we choose one we like, not just for astetics. Its stupid how in multiplayer elites and spartans are the same size, when in reality elites are taller than spartans by at least a foot.
My recent thread told me that female and male spartans would be the same size due to the nature of how they were 'created', but at the same time it would be nice to have slimmer characters for matchmaking. If you guys are worrying about hitboxes, you must not be that good at halo. If someone is harder to hit, then good for them. You'll just have to get better. It's not cheating, they just have an advantage. I seriously think the game is too balanced.
Obviously this game isn't like Super Smash Bros where each character has their pros and cons, and Bungie's main focus is obviously on weapon shooting, and not the character design. However, if that was genuinely the case, we shouldn't even have elites, because looking different but being the same size is really just pointless.
Feel free to leave all kinds of comments--i don't care who bashes me in this thread. It'd be better for me to learn some stuff than to get bashed and not learn
