I'll agree they didn't feel fun to fight, and store around a lot more.
But their sexyness went away.

Get out, human.

Get the hell out of my armory, Split-lip!

I make a living of selling my body, and I don't mean sex.

The Jackals I thought looked a little better in 4 than in Reach. Hunters look basically the same in all of them. The Elites were a serious downgrade, but the grunts, the Grunts look absolutely terrible. Look at this monster compared to this sexy creature.


It was revealed that grunts were supposed to be classified as pseudo-amphibians, so the Halo Reach design is actually physiologically inaccurate.
It's more accurate than having having scales like they do in Halo 4. They seem more akin to reptiles now than amphibians.

Reach > 4 in terms of design canon

Why hello there.

Microwave ovens are quite large.

WORT, WORT,WORT!

-NUMS!

I will agree Halo 4 Elites don't look anywhere as good as the other game's Elites.

And what happened to the Jackals?

they're just not that aesthetically pleasing, you know. Look at these pictures:
This Eliteorthis
They just don't look...sleak and smooth like these Elites:
this sexy basterd or this sexy basterd.

There's this crazy thing called "Copyright" that wouldn't have allowed them to use those designs, or the MKV armor for spartans, or the ODST armor and characters.

...You're kidding, right? If that was the issue then 343 wouldn't be able to, oh, I don't know... make Halo?

they look pretty cool in halo 4. never liked the Halo 3 elites.

"Apparently people don't like the truth, but I do like it; I like it because it upsets a lot of people. If you show them enough times that their arguments are bull-blam!-, then maybe just once, one of them will say, 'Oh! Wait a minute I was wrong.' I live for that happening. Rare, I assure you."-Lemmy of Motorhead

i belive shhave funzes suppos

Yes, I'm the guy who had the Flood admit to being furries.

I think it's just the armor and the lack of environment suits (the thing that gave their skin a glossy, green or blue color, was a part of the older armor) that's making people dislike the new elites, they're not much different than the previous incarnations, really.

They look more terrifying in 4, didn't you see the one in FuD??

I hate how people say they love CE and 2 styles, they look retarded and just nostalgia talking.

I liked Halo 3's when they stood up straight (The Ark cutscene) but Bungie even stated Reaches Elite's where how they imagined them to be for Halo CE.

But yea in terms of how scary they are Halo 4's beats the pants off the others, simply because they don't speak human and don't look like they wear toy armour anymore. Now they have broken armour and look like they have been in intense fights and know how to fight.

Balsphemy. CE style Elites had shiny armor and H2 style Elites had secondary colors. H3 Elites had differing shades of armor and mark of shame symbols.

Reach Elites... well they looked neat.

Halo 4 Elites... lol

Zealots look fearsome I'll give you that but why red armor with blue lights? It should be gold armor with blue lights.

That was Bungie when they were losing interest in Halo. It doesn't count.

Simply because they don't speak human? They didn't do that in Reach either...

EGO mos bulla astrum.

That second sexy bastard is an example of the worst Halo elite design in the entire series.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Reach had the sleekest Elites.

everything/anything can be compared to sand on a beach

so basically we're talking about the Sangheili anatomy here right?

They should have left the Minor Elite looking the same as it did in Reach or H3. The new Minor just looks awful.

H4 Elites don't look as bad as some of the other artistic let-downs in the game though, but I agree they could have looked better. Personally I thought the Reach Elites looked amazing, but really they've always looked good.

If they just crossed the CE Elite's height and general outline with Halo 3's armour scheme, it would've been perfect with me. Then Reach went all herp and made them look retarded, which then preceded to infect 343 with "Make everything retarded looking syndrome."

For another example, see the Reach and Halo 4 Banshee.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Oh come on the Reach elites looked badass(talking about the armor), my favorite being the Ultras. The problem I found with the armor was, how did they rank? Halo CE-2 they ranked by color but how does it go in Halo Reach? Minor, spec ops, ranger, ultra, zealot, general, then field marshall? Wasn't there a special armor if you get the LE? What rank was that? I could never tell if Zealots were in higher command than the general and the field marshal.

Also, the Halo CE elites didn't speak english it was "Wort wort wort!" and in Reach they would make weird noises and say "BLARG!"

Halo 4? Not sure if they have rank or even if they say anything. I didn't play the campaign much.

I've been playing Halo since 2002. My earliest memories include hiding at the shotgun window on Damnation and killing my dad with grenades while playing co-op on Pillar of Autumn.

Ignore my gamertag. It's actually Dragonzzilla.

Although Halo 4's Elites seem to lack arm muscles, their faces look much, much more predatory and reptilian then they did in Reach and I like it. Reach's Elites had flat, forward-facing heads that kinda took away the charm they had as reptiles. The Elites are fine, as is the rest of the game.
