Preordered, coming on November 6th, a few days before the MCC! It also features a San Shyuum character, which should be an interesting new perspective.
I can’t wait to play as an Elite in H2A. It’s going to be awesome. The character models look fantastic for Spartans and Elites, and even though it’s based on an old game we’re getting a next gen experience. I hope 343i includes them going forward to Halo 5 though. Maybe I’m asking for too much.

I agree it will be a interesting new perspective. We now have a side of the covenant story we can read and hear what is going on with them now. Kinda like Halo 2 had and still is. Though i wounder if Halo 5 will since in the trailer the Arbiter was in it. It will be interesting to know what he will be about with Halo 5, though i think we will have them playable just for the fact is sangehili fans went and raved to 343 so i think they will listen but lets hope we hear more soon after the Halo:MCC comes out.

Considering the length of this thread. Yeah its a tad hard to ignore…well I hope not, how long as this thing been going on at this point?

In War Games, it could be an amazing explanation: Spartans can play as Elites to study and practice Elite combat tactics. Or becoming more familiar with Covenant Weaponry.
Two years then, well seems like a good time for all now eh? So my bet, pretty much everyone is gonna be on the Halo 2 and 3 playlists, all MLG players not sure.
Hmm with all the crap going on in the universe, ONI’s little project of revenge against the Sangheili probably just took a very large detour. Maybe, just maybe a coalition force between the Sangheili and humanity was created, yeah they still hate each other, but this is survival of them both so they don’t get wasted by whatever the Forerunners left behind.
My hope for this “Canonical” multiplayer experience is that yeah, the elites are back. And perhaps with all these Arena based matches and all that, Spartans have their proving ground, and so do the Elites, their arena would probably be more brutal.
Though I suppose whatever at this point, just hope that 343 has been listening.
Honestly I hope 343 don’t expect everyone to be happy to have elites I’m Halo MCC, then leave them out of 5. It seems like it’s going to be that way. Which is bull fickle honestly.
So most people here can agree that Elites should be an available option in multiplayer, but I have to ask how everyone feels that they should return. Should they be Spartan-sized and hunched over (like H2-H3), larger/stronger/faster than Spartans (like in Reach), or should they be implemented in some different way? Should they be available options in all playlists or only certain ones? What restrictions (if any) should be applied to them?

Hunched would work if you wanted to keep things canon, but a lot of people complain about it. Something about the hitbox. I don’t care, I never play SWAT. Anyways, you can’t and SHOULD NOT follow the Reach incarnation and make them bigger and stronger, because that leads to Elites only existing in things like Invasion and Firefight, a.k.a. “Segregated playlists.” So what would make everybody happy?
Well, Gears of War has had the answer for years: scale them down. Have you ever thought about why Baird and RAAM are the same size in multiplayer? So that they’d present the same-sized target. To hell with canonical explanations; multiplayer isn’t and was never meant to be canon. Ever. By anyone. To be honest, I’m still surprised a bit by the whole “War Games” Schmarrn.
