I've finally discovered what CENSORED is! In truth, the answer has been in front of us the whole time. The CENSORED character is none other than the Covenant Engineer! The clues have been laid out for us:

We know that there are only 7 covenant races, and we've aready seen:
1:Prophets
2:Elites
3:Hunters
4:Brutes
5:Jackals
6:Grunts
7: CENSORED

but the only one left is the Covenant Engineer as shown to us by the covenant heiarchy.

Furthurmore, Frankie (good ol' Frankie) told us that:

"Okay, this week I’ve been bouncing between three characters…Hunter, Marine, and CENSORED. I think the CENSORED will be a lot of fun because he’s like this big CENSORED on a stick, so he’s very top-heavy and CENSORED."

In Halo first-Strike, the covenant Engineer is described as:"a sort of blimp supported by multiple long appendages"

In essecence:

"Okay, this week I’ve been bouncing between three characters…Hunter, Marine, and ENGINEER. I think the ENGINEER will be a lot of fun because he’s like this big BLIMP on a stick, so he’s very top-heavy and AKWARD."

The truth is out...

Hmm... the engineers certainly won't serve as a large threat... Hell, they might even help you.

I have also talked about this before. Try downloading the Halo 2 documentary and pause it at exactly 4:16 and in the background you will see a top heavy... something which I believe is what frankie was talking about. Whether or not it is an engineer is yet to be seen. Personally I think it might be some kind of covenant equivalent of a dog.

That could be right, although i was thinking that the CENSORED would have been more of a fighter bad guy (something that fought like an elite or brute), not really a little wussy thing...
Where can i get this Halo 2 Documentary??

though i think the Covenant Engineer will definately be in Halo 2, (for those people who love to easly kill non-combatants to make themselves feel better.)

I think that Engineer guess might be spot on but i guess we will just have to wait and see :)

Frankie has been talking about this "CENSORED" for some time now, he said it is "bad-ass". I don't think he would say the Engineer is bad-ass.

I have just looked at the documentary and the time is 4:19 on mine...but the screen definately shows something that i have yet to see revealed officially. It looks like a shrimp with a huge tube attached. Could it be the Engineer?

  • 05.10.2004 8:24 AM PDT

Yo me it seemed as if Frankie was hinting at the fact that the new Covenant race is very top-heavy. Now think for a moment, how can you be top-heavy if you float?

Riddle me that, batman. ;-)

you know those flood which explode to let out the little ones????

sound similiar...

and they can be dangerous if the prophets command them to use large machinary, they might be what drives the wraiths...

anyway, why would the prophets have an ingame part if all you have to do is wack them around the head.

I think the Flood Carrier form is actually the grunts and/or jackels that have been mutated by flood but are not suited for combat forms. But even if they are a new Covenant species, they don't drive the Wraiths. Go play Halo and blow one up. Then walk close to it and you'll see a plasma rifle, maybe some grenades, and the corpse of an Elite underneath the Wraith.

The GI article stated that th Brute and the Prophet are going to be in the game and probably at least one new one Covenant. I strongly believe that this is the creature that they speak of.

Why keep the engineers secret. It's kind of obvous if it is them.

I've heard somewhere about a new species, the "Rough", in a magazine i believe.

Doesnt that sound like something capable of flipping warthogs?

and besides, didnt they confirmed a whole new race in halo 2?
flood wouldnt be new, so its either forerunners, wildlife or something yet unknown.

the GI article also mentions a huge beast capable of flipping over warthogs, i believe this is the character frankie is talking about. also frankie did say this character is a bad-ass, so i doubt its the engineer, its more likely that its the one mentioned by GI. and frankie nor GI said it was covenant, but i guess it still could be
