Hey I’m just wondering when I played halo 3 on the mcc when I was playing as an elite in multiplayer do you think elites are weaker in multiplayer matches it seems like I never win on a match when I play as an Spartans they seem stronger what are your thoughts

I think that they just have bigger hitboxes and that’s the main problem, I think that they would never unbalance the game that much to make elites weaker than spartans.
To be honest, it feels harder to hit Elites on H3 (I think it’s just me) and headshots are more difficult
I think halo 3 hit detection is just weird (still). For sure the elites have bigger hit boxes…especially easier to head shot.
I loved playing as Elites however whenever I played Swat, I felt as if the head was too big, making them unsafe to use in certain game modes.
Elites are bullet sponges
The exaggerated hunches posture that Bungie went with in Halo 3 seems to make it harder to land precise shots on the head. Whether this is due to a changed hitbox or just the players instinct to aim for where the head would be on a Spartan. I do not know.

Elites are bigger so easier to hit also don’t use flame helmet because you can see the flame while your invisible (last time I checked)
Yeah i always felt off with the elites i felt like it was bigger hitboxes like one mentioned that and ummm seemed harder to go for the headshot snipe on them cuz the head was just weird IMO.
I don’t think so
I don’t think Elites in Halo 3 affect gameplay all that much.
I rather enjoy playing as or against Elites.
Even if they have their advantages or disadvantages I’d rather have playable Elites than none at all.
Even from a gameplay perspective like Halo: Reach for example it was always fun playing Invasion as these 7-8ft aliens that tower over the humans, but that was Reach not 3.
Yea when playing H3 hardcore/MLG it’s a pain to headshot a Elite I always do body shots on them now or call them out and team up on em… seems to be working pretty good
Personally I feel shooting Elites in the head is easy as doing it to a Spartan, think of it this way, I have been playing Halo for 20 years across all systems and difficulties you can’t tell me you haven’t been able to headshot Elites in that entire time playing the Campaigns granted not everyone is the same however I recommend giving it a try

It’s 5 shot minimum to kill an elite.
I’ll explain it real simple. Elites have an advantage in multiplayer. Their hit boxes are different and they take at least 5 shots to kill them. As on a spartan it’s a fourshot. So yea, playing against a very skilled H3 player who decides to play as an Elite is a pain. They’re techincally up one shot in a 1v1 situation. So there’s that. That’s why Elites seem stronger and have an advantage. It’s also why I’m glad that they’re not returning in infinite.

I don’t know about the elites in halo reach I think they are kinda overpowering because it has an aim tracking system unlike Spartans in reach I just think the elites are weak in halo 3
The elites i quite easier to kill due to bigger hit boxes
For Halo 3 Elutes are definitely harder to kill. Especially trying to headshot one from behind. Also it really is a true statement when I say they eat more shots. Always has been since 360 Halo 3.
