Its been a few years since I posted on here. But I think now is as good a time as any.
For everybody that kept this thread alive, for everybody that maintained their hope we would be able to see a Halo that includes the Arbiter again. Revel in how your faith has rewarded you.
We Won.

As a primarily Spartan player, let me be the first of my kind to say: welcome home, hinge-heads.

As a primarily Elite player, let me say this: Thank you, Demon. May our fights be grand and noteworthy.

It’s a remake, so obviously Elites would be playable in a remake of a game that had playable Elites.
Nobody here has won anything until playable Elites are announced for Halo 5.

Even so, playable Elites are still playable. It may have been a requirement for the original multiplayer, but perhaps it could help us secure victory in Halo 5. If we support 343’s decision, and they notice how positively this action was met, then perhaps it will encourage them to include Elites in Halo 5. If 343 wants to stay afloat, they’ll need to listen to the community. And the community has made one message clear right from Halo 4’s launch: We want fully playable Elites.
Halo 5 has “Spartan Abilities.” No mention of Elite abilities…

Halo: Reach did nothing wrong aside from making the Sangheili faster.

Too big and too fast to work in regular multiplayer, hence segregated playlists. History sucks.

And it gave them crazy health regen. And it made them jump higher. And it agve them an auto-centering crosshair when you hold Covenant weapons. But being taller doesn’t negate any of that.
I’m sorry, but the differences between Spartans and Elites in Reach were too great.
Rejoice and be glad, my brethren!
The great journey is upon us!!!

This was the problem.
We need equal playing fields and standards.
Saw the latest Cairo Station gameplay and I paused each second on the Elites once I spotted good close ups. I have to say…343 FIX THOSE MANDIBLES AND SKIN! No skin exposed nor the mandibles! The multiplayer one was fine! Fix this in campaign as well please! Those Elites are not H4 Elites! Fix it fix it fix it fix it!!!

You have to realise that this is still fairly early in the time-frame to judge.
I think and hope that they are place-holders.
It wouldn’t be very lore-efficient to do so anyways.
Doesn’t matter they made two Elite models I saw one in multiplayer and other in this Cairo mission. They need to go with the one in multiplayer. I don’t like seeing H4 Elites that are copies no more H4 Elites!
> Halo 5 has “Spartan Abilities.” No mention of Elite abilities…
Disappointed to see that there’s no discussion of probably the biggest issue here and still talking about the Model Redesign Zzz.
Halo Escalation. Having the Invasion gametype in the War Games simulation.
Halo 2A. 343i employee saying “Yes, we’re doing Spartans vs Elites” TWICE during the Multiplayer gameplay, making Yoink sure we hear him say that.
Arbiter is back in Halo 5.
Halo 5 Campaign taking place on Sangheilios for at least a good while.
Now all we need to hear is “Elites are playable in Halo 5 Multiplayer”, which I’m Yoinking sure we’re going to hear.
Good job, you guys. Yoinking good job. Seriously. Be very proud.
“There are those who said this day would never come. What a day to say now.”

I’d also like it if they’d take away those damn high heels. I hated the look in Halo 3 and it was just as bad in Halo 4.

By the images that I’ve kept on both campaign and multiplayer I can say that the multiplayer has the flat feet like in Halo 2 while as the campaign has the H4 style feet. It may change cause in campaign with nakey Arby it shows their feet are H4 style. Ither way I don’t mind.
Wow, it’s been a little while since i’ve posted here, but all i have to say is congrats to 343i for making an above and beyond decision for making the collection with tons of features that includes playing as our beloved species and congrats to the regular commenters and supporters of this thread for their perseverance and patience, as we have all been rewarded.
And for the guys above me concerned about the campaign models; don’t worry about it, they are most likely going to use something similar to the MP models that we saw, the gameplay we saw on Cairo is likely dated compared to the MP gameplay.
But anyways, who else is excited for next gen arby suit, honor guards, and spectres?
Shiva thanks you 343.
This year there’ll be a happy Sangheili that will have a multiplayer that he can call home.
