I respect your opinion, I'm probably just going to disagree with it.
HUNTERS ARE TEH COOL ehem.
Yes, I agree. I have two suggestions:
1. Make their melee attacks accurate; they always seem to miss the over-the-shoulder ones.
2. Make it so they have 2 weapons; Fuel rod cannon (the beam variant) and the fuel rod gun (the origional weapon) and can switch between the two depending on the situation, so for long range or inderect fire, the fuel rod gun is used. I'd love to see them use their FRG's actually as a mortar and fire into the air and bombard targets....<droooool>
The thng that made them so easy to take down in Halo 2 was the fact they don't crouch down and cover their front weak spot as effectively; they move around too much and too un-skillfully making it very easy to gte in behind. They should keep their ground and only move when tey have a high chance of hitting you. What would be cool to see is if you killed a hunter's brother, you hear a deafening roar from the other one and he goes into a kind of beserk, so he makes more mistakes but is much faster moving and attacking, more viscious in general.
What also seems to undermine them is it takes something like 5 hits of their shield to kill a marine! AI should be visibly sent flying with even one hit:- if it doesn't kill them, they simply get up again (this could be a similair script to that of the Flood regeneration)
EDIT
Hunters go around in pairs, but why only one pair? Why not 3? Or 6 even?
One other little addition... you know the one in the render gallery in the Halo section with the orange shield... wouldnt it be cool to see them in game, perhaps at a higher rank than other hunter pairs? Just a suggestion, mind.
2ND EDIT -Jeez I'm hopeless
They should also use their razorspines in close combat so you can't just jump over them when you get attacked (something I often do)
Also randomly, they seem to be vulnerable in all areas to GPMG fire....WTF?! Even a GMPG shouldn be able to penetrate Hunter armour!
Making the weakspot tiny- I agree. Hunter killing should be more of an art, like the thing you do with the bull and the red flag... Keep the one on the front the same however.
