Subject: bungies plan for hunters?

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

i don't know about having different ranks for the hunters. but i do think that they need to be stronger. they are after all supossed to be one of the most formidable covenant opponents aren't they.

was it just me or did the hunters seem weaker in halo 2


In case you didn't realise, you could melee a hunter to death in halo 1. and kill them with a single shot from the M6D.

Halo 2 hunters are much tougher.

Hunters are fine as is. The people saying Hunters are easy on Legendary are obviously little kids who can't even beat it on Heroic. I think Hunters should stay the same, but mabye not turn around when you stick them, basically make them smarter, but not tougher.

hunters are more or less tools rather than a race of covenant. i would like to get rid of the whole one shot to the back idea. i want to see a pair of hunters and really see it as a challenge rather than "oh, hunter bang whats next". they should have alternate weapons like a heavy plasma assult rifle thing that just spays every where with blue plasma or a sort of brute hammer thing. i want to see them in ranks aswell like black armour with purple underskin for like black ops covenant or insanely hard ones with white armour and blue underskin.

as for the flood the hunter is made up of worms. worms can be a parasite and im pretty sure one parasite can attack another. if it did happen i like to see the armour go really rusty and horrible sort of melted orange and rust coulour with flood green underskin

or people that realise theyre 2 dam easy....one shot with a sniper dead...wots next....they dont even put up a fight coz they swagger into war zones instead of trying to protect themselves...the ai deffo needs improving 8-)

id like to see them better and harder all round....like just sub mini boss style.... =)

The definitely need to make the hunters stronger!!! It is easy just to no scope them in the neck when the rush for a forward melee attack. But their is a problem with all you people talking about changing their ranks. The hunters that you see in H1 and H2 are the "Hunter Combat Form" because since they are made up of a collective of worms they can easily change shape. You guys are forgetting that if the hunters were to have additional ranks they would probably change shapes too and be FREAKIN AWESOME. Think of a Hunter in Golden Armor except now he his 5 feet taller, has 4 arms and a raging case of herpes. Now imagine that you have the only remaining tube of herpes cream in the world. That would be bad for you man.

Hunters were way to easy to kill in halo2,you could shoot them with a beam rifle in the orange part of there back and they would die in 1-2 shots.they have to be tougher

"Oh you -blam!- camping whore!"
"It's a legitimate strategyyyyyyy!"

Um the Hunters, Elites, and Grunts are definitely going to be allied with the humans in Halo 3...pretty obvious at the end of the second game along with the civil war, Arbiter taking kindly with the other Elites to the humans, and the comments from the books and Conversations Around the Universe, which show how the Elites view humans as more worthy to be in the Covenant than even Grunts. Personally, I cannot wait to fight alongside these races..but need new Covie badies as replacements.

They made Hunters more like what they should be, except for the weapon they used. They are no longer one hit wonders in the back, neck, or other orange spot. However, a rocket was the only thing that was SUPPOSED to be able to take them out. Close range assault weapons/covie weapons wouldn't work. Even shooting them in their soft spot took a bit of ammo to finally take them down.

I think they should be able to use their shield arm to block incoming rounds, and have back their old blaster hand cannon!
