Would the return of playing as Elites be a good idea for the Halo 5 expierence ? In my eyes I think it would be a great idea to reintroduce Sangheili gameplay ! What do you think ?
Depends on how its handled. Like Halo 2? Meh not the best thing that could happen (just a reskin that has some complications with hit detection and multiplayer balance). If they approached elites with specialization in mind, and made them play rather differently to your standard Spartan, then it could be a good thing indeed.
I love playing as Elites, I hope they bring it back! I think there is many ways they can make it good for the overall experience!
If the gameplay as an Elite is objectively different (not just a reskin) then sure.
Personally, I don’t really care, but if it did, I’d prefer it to be in Reach’s style rather than 2’s or 3’s. As has already been stated, they had hitbox coordination issues, and an identical HUD to boot. Reach, however, gave them a canonical size, unlike the shrunken, hunched figure of the other two. Plus, they had a custom HUD, and slightly different attributes. Even though these made games non-equal starts, it was much better than the previous handling of it. Invasion wouldn’t have felt right in H2/3.
i agree a elite as a playable in story and/or multi player would be nice and i think it would give a little more to the game all and all
If they play exactly the same as Spartans like in previous games, then there’s no point in doing so. I’d like to see them play differently, say higher shields, clocking ability and energy swords only.
As long a sI can choose to be an Elite when ever I want I will not object to the last two posts.
Of course the difficulty of the situation would be that they are introducing ADS for the first time in the halo franchise, and seeing elites fit in is complicated to visualise. No?
SPARTAN abilities
i would love to see ELITES in Halo 5 i really like the way they look in The MCC.

There’s no reason not to give Elites identical abilities.

Right if there r sparten abilities then elites would have to the same abilities so they most likly not have elites.
Invasion was a fantastic gametype on Reach. I hope 343 bring Elites back in Guardians and create some interesting gametypes with them!

There’s always the whole Elites aren’t part of the UNSC thing.
No sangheili = No buy

There’s always the whole Arbiter’s Elites are working with the UNSC thing.
Who the heck doesn’t want to be as Elite’s anyways? Oh wait, Machinima directors need those, Elite Clans need them, as well as anyone else who is a big preference of Elite’s over Spartans. We need more variety instead of just being generic Space Soldiers,
Id welcome them back so as long as:
1-no penalty for useing them. (Fair trade offs are fine)
2-no mutant H4 elites (no horns, or tails plz)
Elites are a very good idea. Having introduced ADS could complicate things for 343 if they were to put them in though. All your comments and suggestions are all great and I appreciate them. If Elites were to be implemented, I believe that their look from H2A would be an amazing thing to do. Again abilities are controversial to the gameplay, since 343 orients themselves towards bettering it for Spartans. What do you think of this ?
