I myself don't have any idear but teh elites cool leap attack and that i didn't want to say both made me conclude that i will play with the elite more.

I'm more of Human type of guy...

Putting on my thought cap on, I think it's due to the fact that I've killed so many Elites. In hHlo 1, even on Legendary and even the yellow or metallic black ones run away in fear of my butt (melee attack, not backside you filthy $^%#§)
In my eyes, they feel too irrelevant to play with...

Master Chief on the other hand is, well, pretty obscene...

I guess that will change once I see the new ones and they start using their butts properly ;-)

Apparently, the guys at IGN who have played Zanzibar and were playing Elites couldn't see any difference between playing as Elite and playing as master Chief. You don't get the Elite's special moves. It's just a skin... a cool looking skin.

Didnt I read somewhere that some of the levels would be low- grav? maybe thats it... but he did specifically say theres no diff. gameplay-wise between Elites and Spartans

I chose both because I am used to the Master Chief, but like they said there is no difference between the two. Also the Elite skin looks awsome.

  • 05.11.2004 10:50 AM PDT

bah

As it stands right now, I don't like the look and feel of Elites as much. They just aren't badass enough. If bungie coulf incorperate the badass feel of an Elite into multiplayer, and make thier HUD truley unique and sweet, I'd prefer the Elites for at least a while.

What do you mean with THICK?

  • 05.12.2004 3:47 AM PDT

The entire fleet is engaged Cortana, with respect what the hell sorta reinforcements have you got?

PAY ATENTION
you only play as the elites when ur defending
dosn't any one read or listen. it was mentioned on the video and on the ign report
and the elite was on a raised peice of land so it made him look like he jumped higher than he did!
think before you post!!!

You don't know if you have to defend youre base EVERYTIME while playing elites.
Or could this be the only map where you can play elites?

I think spartans!, they look so cool and if you played a lot of halo, you've gone attached to them! And it also feels good to play on the side of THE GOOD GUYS!
Just like with the war in Iraq, we got the feeling America are the good guys, so kill all iraqies, but its not the otherway around, Its good 2 kill iraqies but not if iraqies kill americans!

It works like Assault in Unreal Tournament and UT2004.

One team is attacking.

One team is defending.

At the end of each round the teams swap.




Back on topic though, personally I would like to play as a grunt.

I loke those guys.

Mmmmmm grunt packing twin smgs.

yes but when the teams swap you'll still be the same race!
Like if you are defending as Elite, then when you change into attacking, you'll still be Elite, whell thats what i think!

Personnaly I think I'l play whatever my enemy wants me to. Simply because I could care less. Hell I'd even go as far as limiting my self to Covenant weapons only even if only to remain true to the Covenant ways.

Actually that reminds me. Now I know it is only multiplayer (at least I hope it stays only multiplayer), but the Elites using human weapons kind of pisses me off. Now what I am wondering is if there is a game mode that will limit the Covenant to Covenant weapons. That would be nice. The Covenant could still board the human vehicles and such, but instead of using them they some how disable them. I think that would add a nice layer to Halo 2's mulitplayer. Especially for those that enjoy every concept of Halo too the point I do.

Well i have killed ALOT of spartans probably more then i have killed elites and that why i would want to choose elites, I mean 50 kills slayer? every weekend probably 5 times?
=250 i might have killed 1000 so 4 weekends times 4 is 1000.

So youre agumentations for beign MC are preet rubish UNLESS you never play MP withch i doubt....
