Elites are not going to be in the game. If you are going to stay in denial, Reach and Halo 3 are still available. It’s not like you’re going to see your dino the majority of the time, anyway.

I’m sorry but this is getting ridiculous, the whole thread gets derailed for about 1-2 pages everytime one of these spartans posts, I make a motion that we start ignoring them, maybe update the first post so its more up-to-date explaining how they’d work in canon and how they could be added, etc to prevent this from happening.

Again, I apologise, not all Spartans are like this.

Trust me, a lot of Spartan’s are like this, there main dislike towards the Elite models are because they always caused imbalance since Halo 3.
I’m not exactly bothered if they are in or out, but you can’t expect to not have the players who aren’t fond of Elites to complain.

I know alot of Spartans are like that.
I just find the denial of some of the “Elites” a bit ridiculous.
Since when did people start getting labeled based on their player model choice?

Do you brain-dead Spartans think your better than us?!

Most of you who play spartans are not like that. now some elite fans wouldn’t mind playing as spartans if it wasn’t for the fact that the few that say such things wern’t being mean about it. sense if they are presseured into it.
> Elites are not going to be in the game. If you are going to stay in denial, Reach and Halo 3 are still available. It’s not like you’re going to see your dino the majority of the time, anyway.
the same cna even be said about spartan fanboys who hate armor abilities and jetpacks
though while I do admit not wanting to play the game or not because of no elites is odd,it is there choice the same goes for the latter
but I can at least understand those who wants to play as elites,playing as a Spartan 100 percent of the time can be boring,the speicalty and uniqueness a spartan can hold dissapears very quickly,to play as an elite and simply state “hey I’m diffrent” is one reason it can be fun to play as the elites,they express them selves in a way they cannot as a spartan(and no diffrent armor trinkets does not say “hey I’m diffrent” it’s like putting on a diffrent peace of clothing under all of that you will always still be some guy in a robot suit
the point being that people like what they like. if they don’t like it,that’s too bad
as for you elite fans keep your chin up,I’m sure the elites will come back in Halo 5,I don’t know what 343 is planning to scratch this “itch” but I hope it will at least help you guys get by till then.
personally I would of settled just for Elites in custom games only

how did they casue imbalance in Halo 3? Unless you are refering to only swat, if so there are other gametypes besides swat in Halo 3, you can always play those if your that frustrated. in my personal experience, I shot both spartans and elites in same way, same result, Both! wound up dead.

It wasn’t just SWAT in Halo 3, you could shoot directly through their neck and throw grenades and any sort of projectile through their neck.
They had completely different hitboxes in Halo 2 to my knowledge and in Halo: Reach, their weapons get completely dominated by the Spartan/UNSC weapons.
They have always been unbalanced.
Whoa,just reading this single page and I can already see there’s a strong rift between Spartan lovers and Elite lovers…
I’ll admit I think spartans look cooler but this kind of hate is uncalled for.

Yeah,it’s kinda screwed up I’ll admit,everyone hating everyone over what they like to play as,not everyone likes elites and not everyone like spartans,doesn’t matter unless you’re gonna be an -Yoink- about it still,lets just try to keep this on track
I hope for the elite lovers that they’ll get by if not,well they can sit this one out if they want to or,if they want to play Halo4 they cna just not customize their spartans,and they can use the covie weapons in their honor
