Very good question......

Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

not sure, maybe they felt it was slightly pointless, its the same as the normal version apart from colour, and since ODST takes place during the events of halo 2 they put it in for fan service.

Blah blah blah, there was a bio here. Yadda yadda casual gamer, yadda yadda hate messages yadda yadda tea kettle yadda yadda english and everything with those tea and scones make me sound like Alan Rickman.

maybe because they introduced the spiker as a replacement for the red plasma rifle. it was reintroduced in odst due to questions arising and also to make firefight more fun.

No, the brute one was more powerful.

Thats probably why they replaced it with the spiker.

Can this be your answer even though im posting this to reflect your statement previously?

I rule the midnight air, the destroyer, die by my hand, I am Creeping Death.

that made me LOL

and btw, that is false, the brute plasma rifle was more powerful yet heated up a bit faster

I hated the brute plasma rifle, took so long to kill the halo 2 brutes with that thing, I stuck with the elite one myself...

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Halo 2 was rushed by Microsoft's strict release dates, so the Brute Plasma Rifle was added to it in place of the Spiker. Halo 3 had much more development time to work on the sandbox, they were able to unleash the Brute weapons.

Also, from a canonical point of view, the Brutes weren't in power until the end of Halo 2 when the Great Schism begins. By Halo 3 they'd have been allowed to remove the Edicts the Sangheili placed upon them, so they could use their full military might.
