Elites need some SERIOUS updated love in Anniversary

Seriously, the Elites in Reach are soo BADASSS compared to Halo 3
but we almost never get to play as them outside of Invasion (another
neglected playlist for sure)!

This needs to happen for Anniversary:

  1. Elites playable in all Classic modes with the same health
    and settings as Spartans.

  2. Invasion updated to support Zero Bloom and 85% Bloom. Add WAYYYY
    more Invasion maps

  3. Firefight Versus added to matchmaking

Seriously…

  1. Sure, so long as their traits are toned down to match spartans. However…some playlists (such as SWAT, MLG, Arena) should exclude the Elite player model, and explicitly state that (I.E. Player Model: Spartan Only)

  2. No. Not until the NR is fixed on 85% bloom. Currently it’s essentially bloomless on 85%, and Elites would get to spawn with them phase 2-3 of Invasion. So Elites would get automatic, pin-point accurate, super-combining rifles while the Spartans would still have to compensate for bloom. Also, both gametypes have other issues that need to be worked out first.

  3. Agreed.

How about we get an Elite Slayer playlist? If need be, throw Objective into Squad Slayer to keep Reach’s matchmaking from being overrun with Slayer playlists.

  1. Could Work
  2. Hell No In Boneyard it will be Inpossible to take it to Spartan Base when all have
    Pistols or DMR
  3. I hope it
