> that reminds me… Arbiter Will make an appearance in halo 4… so… what are your ideas on how he will look like?
Hmm…tricky question actually since well…it has been 4 years since the Covenant War so I am guessing he hasn’t aged much. He is still quiet the clever warrior no doubt as he is the leader type since he is trying to lead his people and such. As for his looks…He might wear the Arbiter armor, but with the way the Master Chief’s armor has changed in looks drastically but it’s the same armor he has been wearing since 2 and 3, No doubt the Arbiter might have a change in armor design also. His voice still deep and strong and yeah… that’s just how I personally take my perspect on how the Arbiter looks in Halo 4.

Something new up huh? Is it gonna be full of fun stuff at least for us? Like fiesta or whatever type of cool games there was?

Do you think he will be dressed more properly than what we saw of the elites so far… i mean, he is the commander of them all, at the same time i could imagine him humbling himself.
The Arbiter, regardless of his dress code, will still be able to turn Brutes to stone at his mere glance.
> Do you think he will be dressed more properly than what we saw of the elites so far… i mean, he is the commander of them all, at the same time i could imagine him humbling himself.
Well I kinda doubt we would see him in a regular set of clothing like Lord hood or whatever, but definitively his armor is going to be much more…commanding look, like he is the boss that you don’t want to mess with big time, but not as overly dramatic as the Halo Wars Arbiter… that’s how I picture him.
So who’s going to E3? If anyone from this forum is going and go to the Halo 4 Panel, ask 343 Why Elites have been removed and make sure they give a good reason.
Too lazy to read thru all the comments. But in case it hasnt been said already, Im pretty sure in one of the first game informers that had a Halo 4 section, it confirmed elites would not return to multiplayer

In that Game Informer they had said in Competitive Multiplayer. Now we know they will not return at all in multiplayer

And when did they confirm they wont be back at all anyways? If it’s gonna be because of that Twitter post, I rather just see another 343 member give an answer before making my decision on what to believe about the elites in or out.
I’d rather listen to 343 as well. Rumors just spread around like wildfire and in the end they tend to be not true so lets see what 343 says. I hope they are looking at this post and hearing our call.

I’m pretty sure 343i has seen this thread a whole lot during these last couple of months that it is hard to ignore the huge amount of people that respectfully want the elites to still be playable.
Very true they did listen to us on the idea on bringing some Custom maps for Invasion

How do you know that he will be in halo 4? (send me a message.) Btw HAlo NAtion gives no scource for it.

I don’t actually. I can only speculate. Also, incase you have read glass lands, he is working on a peace treaty with Lord hood. Only…it is rather difficult to do so when there is a more dangerous cult that just don’t leave old habits behind…

Yes but what if ONI turn Arby against humanity?
> Yes but what if ONI turn Arby against humanity?
Your just going to have to read the books. Besides, the Arbiter has been working with the humans since Halo 2. He had a good friendship going on with the Master Chief during Halo 3. For him to turn against the humans is a bit ridiculous .

Perhaps Infinity engages Abiding Faith single-handedly and The Arbiter’s fleet comes out of no where and destroys some of their ships! That would be amaziing!

Really?
Anyway, my friend has glasslands and he was telling me about Abiding Faith. I was gobsmacked! They would be…an interesting enemy.

Ha! I noticed something funny
Lord Hood represents 343i: Proposing change
Arbiter represents the fan base: Accepting change
Abiding Faith represent the mindless haters: Hating change and wanting to keep with traditions!
