Frank O'Connor confirmed that "the Covenant" (i.e. the member races such as the Elites, because the Covenant alliance was broken in Halo 3) will be returning and that we will fight them, although they will be "the least of our worries".
So yes Elites will return. And maybe we will fight them apparantly, although I can't see why...
I agree with this completely. Although, in my prediction, they will fight with the Master Chief to destroy whatever new threat is on the map. Elites are not a race that lose they're loyalty so easily. They figure they are extremely indebted to us. If called upon by Chief, they will fight.
If you read Glasslands it might change your opinion. I haven't but I think it say's some Elites want to fight against humanity again and some don't.
And in all honesty I don't think the Sangheili owe humanity anything, they saved our asses and we're currently weaker than we have been at any time during the Human Covenant War.
And another thing. John 117 isn't the leader of the Elites or the embassador of Humanity, he can't just call upon them like he's their leader and expect them to obey him.
I agree they may fight with us again, but not because we owe them or because they're our dogs or because Master Chief's there. They'd fight because they're an intelligent and honorable species and they know what is right for them to do.
I also don't think we should rule out the possibility of the Covenant forces in Halo 4's first mission being more along the lines of pirates, searching for whatever scraps are left.
This is basically post-apocalyptic.
