Bring back the fire! (With the brutes)

Yeah, i was just thinking, i would like fire 'nades and flamethowers (and those flame mortars form HW) to be brought back. It was in Halo:CE PC, Halo 3 and Halo wars, why bungie put it out in reach really annoyed me. It was fun and i loved it. do you think Halo 4 should have fire? leave a comment below.

Also, Brutes should be put in because halo has needed them since halo 3. it would really benefit machinima producers and add some well needed Brute-clans in to MM. I don’t think there should be 1 person that disagrees with me. leave a comment below. (again!)

What fire? Like the flamethrower?? Ya lost me there.

And it doesn’t “need” Brutes. As far as we know, the Covenant is not the threat in Halo 4. They may play a role but they are certainly not “needed”. They’ve been around for 5 games.

Not to mention, Halo doesn’t build it’s franchise around it’s fan-based machinima requirements.

<—At least 1 person who disagrees with you. Shocking, right?

Yeah I’m pretty sure he is talking about flamethrower and fire grenades. Yes I think they should come back. As far as brutes go… Well. I would kinda see why not because I don’t think we will be seeing the last of them? In matchmaking? Maybe for Invation and in costume games… “Maybe”

Not counting HW since there’s really only a select amount of Brutes vs everything else.

I don’t get why most people don’t get it. It’s a new series in the franchise. NEW should be preceding everything involved aside from the core elements left from Halo 3.

Let’s at least GET TO Halo 4 first before we go up and arms about what should be and what’s needed and all that jargon.

yes I AM quite shocked.

I’d like the Brute Shot, Brute Plasma Rifle, Spiker, ODST Flamethrower and Incendiary grenades for Custom Games and Forge…

As long as they are done right. They were cool in H3 but they were practically useless. I expect an incindiary grenade to really be amazing and powerful when i use it. In turn they would be sparse on maps. the flamethrower had such potential but failed epically. If you have to go into 3rd person to use it, it had better be good.

I doubt we’ll see Brutes at all in campaign, let alone multiplayer. 343 Industries should focus on making the new stuff fun and exciting rather than try to shove in as much useless old stuff into multiplayer just for the sake of it being there.

Quality over quantity.

Halo3 had so many things in it I could never get bored of it. Why the hell did Reach abandon so much? I want the missle pods, flame throwers, equipment and everything ells back including new stuff. Halo3 never felt limited to me, reach felt limited like a mother -Yoink-.

i personally hope there isn’t a single Brute in Halo 4, they feel like an outdated enemy

This is true too. The main thing with Halo 3 is that every weapon around was useful and fun to use. While my comment of “quality over quantity” may seem like I’m saying there shouldn’t be a nice variety of things to use, what I’m actually trying to say is that we can have a lot of stuff (like in Halo 3) as long as it isn’t stuff thrown in there for the sake of being there with no true purpose.

i miss the halo 2 brutes…they were way more fierce and harder to take down…and oh boy, when they charged at you! halo 3 brute really disappointed me

but on topic, if brutes are to be in halo 4 they should play a small role
