The armours for Season 7 just dropped and they look really sleek and stylish. Just having these armours adapted to the Infinite Engine and available in Infinite would be enough for me in terms of playable Elites - if they could ever be added, on or post launch, the H3 armours as they stand would be a great template.
I still don’t know what it will take 343 to listen to the demand for playable Elites, after so many years…
