Technically isn’t any spartan company? Though wrong section to ask. But if you support playable elites returning your welcome to join Sangheili Rebellion 2.

Were almost 770! Page 777 should be fun!

thnx for the invite btw i love elites. I look forward ro helping you guus achieve the achilles armor and after we i for sure plan on staying and helping out more

I never played much as an elite, and am not greatly impassioned on the issue. Their removal is too bad though.

As long as armor/spartan abilities are present, there will not be playable elites. Unless they present 3 factions, say Spartans, elites, and forerunners, all with their own special, unique abilities. Such an idea would be cool, but a nightmare to balance, so I find it highly unlikely.

What I do, since I miss elites nd other things, is just play Halo Reach, with the update the came out in October, it works great. The worst it gets for me is when I’m playing Infection, fighting a teleporting infected. That happens occasionally, but its awful playing with infected you can’t kill…

there should be playable spartans, sangheli and promethean soldiers in halo 6 match making

So instead of the normal red team vs blue team. i think that one team would spawn as all spartans, and the other team spawn as all elites. you could use your own color since the teams wouldn’t be color based. and if they released as many badass elite armor customization as the spartans, people wouldn’t mind playing as one. i think doing a spartan vs elite multiplayer would give it more of a battle of reach feel more then an arcade shooting frenzy.

Thoughts?

How come Spartan abilities have to to be limited to just Spartans because it has the word spartan in it?

If they were to extend the abilities to the Sangheili it wouldnt feel right. It would just be an obvious copy and paste. I would rather not have playable Sangheili if that were the case.

The enhanced movement is already an obvious copy/paste from the current trend in multiplayer games, so using their own system is pretty insignificant in comparison.
Besides, just look at what the “abilities” are:
Sprint
Smart-link
Clamber
Ground pound
Boost
That hover thing

First three are irrelevant because Sangheili should obviously be able to do them as well. Last three? Adding a thruster system to Sangheili armor makes more since than adding it to spartans in the first place, what with the Rangers existing. Master Chief just kind of discovered he had a jetpack after waking up, presumably along with the rest of Blue Team. If they can look the other way for this silly stuff then they can sure as hell give the Sangheili a modified version of a system that they already had.

Ya, I suppose so. I would prefer to see something different though, like active canon and evade like what we see in Invasion (IIRC) in Reach.

I am not anti-abilities in Halo, but would prefer to just have a classic arena shooter OR a balls to the wall mobility game. And if we are you have the latter, I would prefer unique class abilities.

People are gonna love it or hate it either way. I wouldn’t mind it tbh

So I haven’t been reading this thread for about 180 replies, anything new or are we just talking in circles?

Same way this thread has always been.

There’s not much new to say, we’re just waiting for 343 to acknowledge us.

Oh, 343 know we exist. A 343 member on twitter said they knew that many players wanted playable elites(even some of them) but it simply was not possible with time constraints. So they do know and acknowledge us, they just can’t do anything or havent done anything yet.
