Sangheili (Elites) In New Trilogy Matchmaking (Part 1)

> One of the major reasons why I love Halo is because of the Sangheili themselves. I really miss playing as them, enough to pop Reach back in and play a few rounds of Invasion from time to time.
>
> Also, where’s the Sangheili apparel in the Waypoint store?! Could use a good, official shirt or hoodie!

You know, now that you mention it, I don’t think there ever has been some good quality stuff for T shirts and sweaters and such for elite’s. Would be pretty cool to have some of those also…

I would pay good money to get some Sangheili stuff. Even if it was for my avatar, the “Sangheili” costume looks horrible, imo. :frowning:

Its a shame everything is still mainly UNSC, you would think that after all this time there might be at least some covenant-themed apparel in the main store.

> Personally I am tired of being separated from playing along my fellow Spartans on similar game types to each other. We both kill each other, we both play objective games and such. So what is so hard to make it like how Halo 2 and 3 were like? Like I said, I never was a fan of the whole Halo Reach Separation.

One thing I like about Invasion is everyone can be both Spartans and Elites without bickering about it. You can switch back and fourth on it when you play the game however in Invasion slayer you stay as the color team. Thats only one place where no Spartan would bash at Elite fans. Plus Invasion is fun. Its like a mission for the Elites to go in and extract or capture data or guard the Spire or place a bomb before getting the core. However I see a down side to this. Invasion is becoming a big habit of spawn campers I have seen it way too often these days. Vehicles, just themselves with weapons and grenades, etc. Only place on Reach where you can be a Sangheili is Invasion or Multi Team. Team Slayer is rare which is sad. :frowning:

indeed that is. but I think Elites should be playable with spartans like in Halo 3 and 3 and still no spartan complained about Elites much there (from what I hear)
bringing the Elites and spartans together evan for custom games can work personaly.

You know, now that you think about it, we haven’t seen 343i’s motive to remove them from MM. They just suddenly made them go bye-bye. Out of the blue, decided this. There might be a few things going on back there that they do not want us to know. What are 343i’s secrets?

I don’t know but whatever it is they are doing, they better make sure they get things under control that’s for sure.

it’s not the first time a company does something for no reason. (see : Halo 3 completely ignoring all the different elite classes in H2/ignoring hunters and grunts joined the elites after the uprising[1], etc).
I wouldn’t be surprised if they sat down one day and said “let’s make elites playable in MP, guys.”
“-no, they are bigger than the player in SP”
“-oh, yea that’s true. resizing them and balancing would add more work. fine, no elites then”

[1] fine, according to bungie,it would confuse the player to have grunts on your side. but how stupid can you be to fail to understand that aliens wearing different armors than your enemies, who don’t shoot you back and have a green crosshairs when targeted are NOT the enemies? that’s a BS explanation to me.

It appears that 343i’s pulled the elites out over some self righteousness by having everyone as spartans (for story purposes?), and hype everyone with the reemergence of the Master Chief (which successfully happened to me). They do have something planned for them but I cannot put my finger to what they’ll do but I believe that it’ll have something to do with Halsey and M’Dama, or that one spartan that I cannot remember or care IMO.
I have a feeling that Jul may become a boss in Spartan Ops (though necessarily will not die, hopefully). Oh, and legendary elite skull w/ machetes and hunter shields FTW!

you know now that someone brings up 'Mdama and Hasley, I do want Jul to live till the Halo 6 (depending of 343i can’t get their heads out of their posteriors). Even as the antagonist for Spartan Ops, he’s a -Yoink!- good one and clever at that.

What I’d like to see is the Arbiter does what he could and sends a team of his own spec ops to find him and bring him to justice, justice the Sangeheili way.

Off Topic but thought I’d throw that out there.

If that truly was the reason then we can’t see MP Elites in the next 2 games. so canon was the only reason, evan if some think tis BS.

besides Im sure they will include MP Elites in the game somewhere.

You mean something like this scene here?

Death of Truth

I’d rather see Jul beheaded.

Put him up in trial with Judge Judy lol

Execution with an energy sword is always favorable, but judge judy could be equally interesting.

I’d like to see a fight where Thel kills Jul by kicking him off of somehting or into something.

I don’t want to see him die. If he does though, I want us to feel sorry about it. With his background being shown, the death of Raia, his abduction, etc.

I’m still waiting for the introduction of Dural 'Mdama. Now he’s the one I’m worrying about.

Was Telcam introduced to us? I watched that terminal with the elites but I couldn’t quite remember all of them (and erhm, I haven’t seen it for a long while. I know who Jul is but not Telcam.

No.

Bah, boss fight and then behead him! Truth couldn’t fight back, besides what would be more kick -Yoink- than to face Jul?

Jul and his armies that’s what, not as Spartans but as Sangheili.

(though it’d be boss if it was a joint op but whatever)

I’d love the idea as well.
