You are right… we are Sangheili… let us man up and face this force and destroy it…we demand elites playable in multiplayer…
What does an elite say when he see’s a verruca?
WART WART WART.

This is why I say we get a separate spin-off/trilogy following the arbiter or other elites.
And to the people saying the spartan players would’t buy it, most of them aren’t bothered what they play as.

Canon nerds like me would buy it, Elite fans would buy it (probably overlap with the first), and most others won’t actually care because it’s got “Halo” in the title.
I feel like that would be best reserved for an expansion pack, though. It would serve to gauge what kind of response it would get, and whether or not it would actually work as a trilogy or not.
With 343 working on a new trilogy I don’t think they will be able to make another game focused on Sangheili. But, they could give the project to another developer like Ensamble Studios did with Halo Wars. It could even be a different genre like an RPG or something. That would be pretty cool. I also think they could make DLC with playable elites either with maps that had an invasion like gametype or a “Sangheili Ops” package.
This doesn’t change the fact that I was dissapointed when I heard there wouldn’t be playable elites in MM. I pretty much just expected it after 3 games with them. Playable elites in halo 4 is something that would really get me excited for the game. I just think it’s fun to play as them.
Ever since the news that elites would be out of MM, 343 has been getting a lot of support to bring them back. I think if 343 has been looking as this thread at all, there will be playable elites in the future of halo.
BRING ELITES BACK 343!!!
Wort Wort Wort!
Please support the elite fans, 343i.
343…the sangheili spirit has soared, do not let it be ignored
If the rumors that we will paly as the hummanoid class of the new enemy…I say good ridance.
I support the Sangheilis :).
I can’t wait for E3 when 343 will tell us why elites are not playable, they need to give us a reason why. Supposedly there is a rumour going around there is now a different playable species, got to wonder what peoples reaction will be to them.

Hopefully whatever it is that this secondary species which is being rumored around isnt going to be anything ugly looking…Still, the E3 event is all we can look forward to now…
> > The reason why Elites might not be in H4 multiplayer would be purely gameplay related, not to do with any convenient backstory they conjure up. Elites are way too big compared to even the biggest Spartan, I think Bungie realised this and thats why we have the hunched over dinos of H3 and the massive different play style models of Elites in Reach.

That’s cause Spartan-IIs are the same size as Elites. However, for regular humans and Spartan-IIIs, Elites are taller. If Halo 4 made the Elites the same height as the Spartan-IV’s (which I believe are the height of the average human, but I’m not exactly sure) then that would be conflicting with previous canon.
However, if Spartan-IVs are the same height as Spartan-IIs, then that could work.

> We should accept that they aren’t in Halo 4, if we don’t, then we can’t be taken seriously. We should accept that they aren’t in it, but keep this thread alive to let 343 know that even though they aren’t in Halo 4, we still want to see them as playable characters in the future. Though I do speculate about Spartan Ops having them as playable characters, as unlikely as it is.
This. I doubt they will be playable anytime in the near future of the games release, but if we keep this thread alive and active, we dont know what could happen. There could be one or twon missions put into spartan ops where we get to play as elites.
Anyway, we need to keep this thread alive. Whether or not we get the elites for halo 4, we have to show that we wont give up so easily.
I’m losing hope, but Halo 5 gents, halo 5 will be announced sometime in the future, lets hope this thread can last that long.

Wrong acutally. If you watched the most recent vidoc, Frankie stated that older spartans in the series would come back, amped up now as spartan IV. Its not like they will magically grow shorter.
And with genetic augmentations, the spartans IV that are newly made will likely be roughly the same size as a spartan II. Also note, that since we play as spartan II master Cheif in campaign, for gameplay purposes the spartan IV will likely be the same size as the cheif.
The problem with elites is the hitbox complaint. And we have given an easy fix to that one.

I really Hope it’s the Forerunners, I’ve always wanted to play as them

I wont even watch E3 specifically because halo 4 will be there.
I dont want ANY spoilers.

lol, what if it announced elites fully playable in all gametypes… ex: elites wont just be in multiplayer… but in all gametypes 
I wonder why the cruelness of Elites continually degraded as the war prolonged.

The only SPARTAN-IV’s that would be the same height as your average SPARTAN-II would be the SPARTAN-II’s from the first augmentations that failed to make it through the process. The SPARTAN-IV augmentation procedures aren’t going to make anyone taller given that the volunteers are all full grown adults. At best they will be about the height of a SPARTAN-III.
And the SPARTAN-II’s that did make it through the procedures aren’t going through anymore augmentations. They will just be helping with training the new generation of SPARTANs.

It’s actually been a few years since I have had one but I can still remember the taste so well. I wonder if they are as good as they were back then…
