The Brutes were a challenge in Legendary. Keep them.

They need to stay. But maybe we can get them to be a bit harder? Say, with a shield similar to the Hunter one on their arm, that they can block shots with, and they do have a helmet which can block a few headshots, so when u shot that they would bring up the shield to their head and block, of course then it would have to be a jackal shield or they wouldnt be able to see. Yeah, brutes with jackal shields may be harder.

Brutes will play a specific part in the storyline (me thinks).

Yeah so there WOULDNT be a huge army of shield-bearing brutes. Most would be normal. Maybe only brute captains and above can use them? They are more rare.

Eitherway, Brutes are not that hard, and it you cant kill them...um, then u kinda sux0r at halo 2 lol.

Carbine=dead brute with hole in head...damn straight.
Duel needler=dead brute bits all over (there should be, more realism if gib effects are made)

Seriously though, a jackal/drone/brute being still connected in 1 body after having an INTERNAL explosion mind you...um....NOT
(^From Needlers/Brute Shot/RL/ any explosives)

Pistols and BR, anything with headshots actualy lol, i also recall killing them with duel plasma they are kinda easy at first i kinda ment elite shields, but like a specialized version of jackal sheilds would be realy cool, expecialy with the hopefully new AI, mking the phalanxes like in the book. and if all else fails theyd just go into berserker mode liek always :)

I always was like "sh17!!!" when i heard the roars of a brute going berserk, on legendary that is lol.

And, a headshot with sniper/beam rifle = HEADLESS enemy! God, can we get some realism here? I mean...jeez.

Yeah...that is why my favorite levels are The Arbiter and Uprising ;) I like having allies who have SHIELDS and can use energy swords. (Uprising is sweet coz u get a Zealot ally, whats even BETTER is if u get Thunderstorm, the secret skull on Cairo Station, you have ULTRA elites as allies! the white armored ones. They always get mad and pull out swords lol. The brutes cant help getting owned then.)

brutes are fun to kill.heh keep em i say.


Halo 2 Legendary beaten on. May 16 , 2006


Holy god, that was only two days ago. What game where you playing????.......Azurik. HAHAHA. THat game sucked.

Also keep Brutes in, for some reason I think they'll get more pissed in Halo 3. And i'll be super pissed if they get to use rocket launchers and fuel rod cannons. Why? They'll kamakaze your ass.

I say keep them, bungie has no choice anyway, who else would the covenent have? Besides the Jackals, but they are weak, so Halo 3's story wouldn't make any sense at all without the Brutes.

The brutes were so -blam!-, they were too hard to kill, they had no sheilds.
Perhaps you should change your tactics then.

Which wouldn't make sense, because the brutes are cuddly, fun loving allies to the humans that give candy to all the little human children. What was he thinking?


I beg your pardon? What YOU just said doesnt make sense to me lol. I hope you are just kidding?

aaaahh! dude even on easy those brutes where hard for me. you think becuse it was easy you could kill them in 2-3 hits. no way man it took 6-7 hits to kill them with normal weapons and 3 shotgun shells realy up close to kill one.
