Still hope… mine is usually far away.

I prefer being an Elite and when I look to the left I see my twin brothers Spartan running along with me to shoot some heads.

I like both of them, either I’m the only Elite in the team and I feel unique or we are all Elites ourselves, that reminds (I use that word too many times lol) me some games in Halo 2, all Elites with the Grunt Head as emblem (with different colors) , sayings things with "brothers ! " .
That was too good, I only remember one game in matchmaking on the map in the gas mine, the number of players you see playing as an Elite in matchmaking was pretty much the same as Halo 3 : sometimes you see a guy, in Tower of Power games, that was like that.
Something I always noticed in the Halo 2 multiplayer is the Elites use the english sounds instead of the french ones used in campaign (yes I’m french) .
The Reach’s way to Elites is good and with the loadouts, that was better… In fact : the loadouts allowed me to update a gametype I created since Halo 3 (simple : very small map, a spawn at each corner on the two levels, random weapons, infinite ammo, one overshield spawn, grenades here and things like the energy drain) .
With Reach, you can pick one of the 5 loadouts (sprint, evade, armor lock, active camo (too useless lol) and hologram) and if you are a Spartan, the loadouts include the frags and plasmas for Elites, no grenades on the ground like armor abilities (only exception is the jetpack on some new maps) . That and bottomless clip, when you have 8 players (max) all with fuel rod guns, this is an absolute mayhem (the best someone made so far was a running riot) .
I swear they better have to include both playable Elites and loadouts, just for this (and the Invasion because of the ammount of possibilities) .
EDIT : at least for the next game.
EDIT 2 : nothing to do with the topic but I can edit the Halo 5 armor even if I never played the game ??? (and one reminds me an Elite armor too)

The Heiroskrill maybe based on an Elite but that’s not enough for me.
That’s like making a Megaman X skin for Zero in Marvel vs Capcom 3.
This is pointless, the character still a Spartan not an Elite.

Like I said, its like putting a Megaman X skin on Zero and it snot really X in Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
Obviously… I don’t really like Halo 4 and 5 Spartan armor because of those thrusters behind that make the armor big, it’s not an extra level of metal, yep this armor seem to be the exact opposite, there is something big behind !
(not the said armor)
I dislike those two things + the blue on the helmet (why the red is not available ??? ) .
An elite only playlist would fix the balancing issue though for instance. Like Covie slayer or something like that.
Or better yet 343 bring back one of your crowned jewels with Invasion. Which in all honesty was arguably one of the highlights to Halo reach’s matchmaking (Arena being the other major bonus there.)
Plus a side note. If they add elites, they could add more req’s for elite only stuff. Which in turn will only get more people to play, and play for a longer period of time because there is more to do and earn.

My answer to a such playlist would be the same than Reach, they can’t have a good reason to remove them.
Removing a weapon starting with an insane ammount of shots is okay, not cool but okay… not this.
(talking about the Halo 2 fuel rod gun)
343 i will buy all the req packs you ask of me if you return elites.

That’s what I’ve been proposing to.
Making Elites playable in a playlist of their own works out nicely. That way we can choose to play as Elites all we want and not play a Spartan when we don’t want to.

Warzone would work perfectly for playable elites.
I want to hear what 343 has to say about all this. We seem to have more than enough legitimate reasons to add the Sangheili back into MP.
Most of us don’t even visit waypoint. I see so many playing Reach still.

Indeed, I’d be finding myself playing that one more.
That would be cool if Elites come with the Forge… because I’m gonna play Halo 5 because of the Forge.
But if Elites are added, chances the Invasion isn’t… please.
Elites could be an excuse to add more armors and helmets to sell in req packs later.

Or just getting to wear a sangheli’s face. That’d be a good chuckle.
So 343 didn’t include playable Sangheili at release, but what about later down the line? 343 said they couldn’t work on it right away but now they could. Now you’re probably wondering “How will 343 balance the two races? Or will it just be an elite skin but with spartan abilities?” Well here’s my solution; They could do what they did in reach a bit, Elites were faster, had stronger melee, higher jump and stronger shields, however they were big and easy to spot. And instead of spartan abilities the Sangheili have these abilities to replace them:
Sprint=Sprint. Duh
Clamber- Climb. Duh again
Spartan Slide and Thruster Pack=Elite Evade. Basically they can do parkour rolls instead of slide
Spartan Slam: Sangheili Slash. Elites would use their famed strength to rush their foes and the animation is them drawing an energy dagger and slash at their foes.
Ground Pound=??? I know 343 can come up with something to help even out the Sangheili and Spartans.
What do you guys think?
Agreed as well, BRING THEM BACK. cries
