Subject: Should there be a NEW enemy?!!

Hobo grunt I believe that the race pictured here on the top left is the sharquoi http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/ancient_tablets/Tablet3.gif


Yeah. Sharquoi is most likely the Covenant name for Drinol.

Well I wouldn't count the loin cloth as armor, but yeah they had a club. I am sure the Drinol will have armor from what I've seen of the rendered pictures, but not shields. They might also have a cool melee weapon, but they probably aren't smart enough for long range energy weapons(that and their fingers are too big), but who knows if and until they come out?

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

There is this enemy I'm thinkin' of, I call them trolls.You can call em what you want. They are them 10ft monsters that usually carries clubs but, how about in Halo 3 they carry very large swords and hammers. Since the brutes are on a losing streak, bungie could have them side with the trolls. So far as I saw it from Halo 2 it ended as the humans, elites, some grunts, and hunters against the brutes, jackals, and buggers. Maybe we should have the trolls side with the brutes. They could introduce them somewhere in the middle of the story. You know MC or the Arbiter discovers a lot of dead Hunters and they have to explore unitl they find the enemy. The scenario could be similar to that "343 Guilty Spark" mission in Halo 1 when the marines first found the flood except after finding the trolls, they don't spread worldwide like the flood in Halo 1.

the Conversations from the Universe booklet mentions the "Sharquoi" (implied as a covenant race) perhaps they could show up in the next game?

but other than them no more enimies

  • 05.19.2006 8:44 PM PDT

Yes there should be atleast two more enemy races. Brutes, Jackels and Drones are not enough. I know Truth is an enemy too but comeon we need more races to fight. The Flood should also get an equivalent to each of the races, because they just become so boring to look at after awhile.

In response to ice9994 a time of war is a very good time to introduce more warriors think about it the Prophets must be very persausive and the Covenant may have taken prisoners at some point during their Galatic romp haha. Any race they may have inslaved could very well fight along side them in hopes of having freedom and the chhance to join their Great Journey.

i dunno but wen facing live (not flood infested) enemies, wen you kill them, a flood should instatly be able to climb into him/it. Example. You kill an elite who is fighting off flood, you turn around and his body is being invaded by the orbs then suddenly he gets up and attacks.



Also, floodified grunts, jackals, buggers, brutes and even, ooh this will be cool, wildlife like dogs, vultures etc. i mean we are on earth rite?





And maybe even some human vs human war. After all, were in Egypt, not too far from Afghanastan and Iraq and odds are in 2552/2553 Al Queada will still exist in some form. Maybe they're w/ covenant. UH, OH did i say that outloud

maybe the flood could combine to form a huge form that will drain your shields in normal mode and kill you in legendary if it shoots you with a parsitic payload.

Wild animals. If we're in Egypt most of the time, wht not pop in some attacking lions every now and then. Or even vulcher and rats would appear near dead bodies and pick away at the dead flesh. That, i have to say, would be rather cool.

There should be floodified grunts and jackals and buggers. And there are 10 different ways the flood look when in a host.

The flood can take over ANY dead body, even ones that you've just killed that we're not floodized first.

non-flood enemy appendages come off and legs get blown apart by grenades and the life status of enemies is indicated by how they look. Someone who's a bout to die would be limping or the arm or face is gushing blood you know for visual effects, i mean we are on the 360 here right.

As for new foes, some multi legged "pet" that the covenant have taimed and brought to Earth. A plasma spitting, 6 legged dog thing it would be called a... i dunno

A new cool enmy would be flood brutes and flood grunts. Brute would be hard to kill and f. grunts would be there for cmic relief.

No new Covenant types, please. On the other hand, I would LOVE to see a new sentinel and Flood types.

We just had two new sentinels - the big thing tht blew up warthogs and tanks, and the gold plated shield version.

Brutes should become flood combat forms.

IF Bungie decides to bring a new race to the game, i'll welcome it with open arms, But I think it's already too late to introduce a new race with all the development that happened during halo 2, unless the prophet of truth decides to make a quick stop at one of the planets for a helping hand.

I like the idea of a new enemy, no matter what it is. I always get uneasy about fighting the flood, like in the library its just too quiet and then you're overwhelmed. If they get rid of the flying bug dudes, they could replace it with an enemy a little tougher than elites, but, not as tough as brutes. Bungie is extremely creative and I'm sure they will pull off something spectacular.
