Do you think that you will see a team of ODST gang up and blast a Brute to its bloody death?

How tough are Brutes supposed to be? How tough are ODSTs supposed to be?

they could take out a brute, but they would probably not be smart enough to take out a hunter.

I would say its definatly a possibilty, especially if the AI is as good as they say it's going to be, i think the biggest question is are they going to last long enough till there is only one Brute left

I believe that Brutes are tougher than Elites and supposed to be alot faster and cleverer than Hunters, but not as tough! I think that 4 could take out 1 brute, but problem is, is that brutes dont come in ones, they probably come as a pair or a squad, then we're Fu*ked!

if you read First Strike, you'll know that it took two Spartans to take down one (maybe two) brutes. MC went one on one and had the -blam!- beaten out of him before he got lucky with a bomb or somethin. a brute's weapon tore through a Spartan's (Grace) armor with only one shot

And here comes the flames from people who dont care about the books. But I agree, from what we've been told about Brutes (Which is only through the books), they are stronger than hunters and faster than Elites AND MC. I dont know about tactics, but I like to think an Elite is smarter than a Brute, but one on one a Brute would kill an Elite, and tear through some ODSTs

1 Elite couldnt even take on a Brute, an ODST would be torn in half.

By comparison, could an ODST take on an Elite? I doubt it. But even so, MC was almost killed by a Brute one on one, any other human soldier short of another Spartan would be annihilated
