You know what he meant. Just those dirty blue ones.

Speaking of Grim Brother 1 he did post his own feelings on elites. He agreed arby and sos should have looked different.

hope H6 is all about sangheilis and there comeback in MP :slight_smile:

In the halo wars 2 style and not the "brute"elites of h4 and 5

Over 16,000 replies. Just wow

but discussion related: I could definitely see H6 having some playable elite action.

Like H5, 4 playable characters in the campaign. Except instead of Osiris/Blue Team:

Chief
Locke
ARBY
…Palmer… sigh

Not excited about numero quatro. But it is what it is.

Not the whole of the Swords of Sanghelios. They are comprised of numerous subspecies.

Here is the subspecies from Halo 4/5. Here is a Jiralhanae. Here is what you consider to be the only normal subspecies. You honestly think that 1st image looks more like that 2nd image than that 3rd image?

I have to check twitter, but more than one fb fan page said that Bonnie confirmed today that all following Halos would have splitscreen, if true, I think this is the right moment to aboard the devs on their social media, if we wait to see a trailer or beta theyll likely would come with the classic “we did’t have enough time/ resources”.

ya 343 don’t forget

it was in the community update, it is confirmed all future Halo FPS will have splitscreen and black undersuits.
in my opinion they won’t show we have playable elites ( if we do) until we actually see some gameplay
but they know we’re here so hopefully they took the hint.

To 343 I say JUST DO IT!!! BringBackPlayableElites!!!

Agree that Arby should be a playable campaign character in an ideal world, but given what we’ve seen so far (and how well-received characters like Rtas 'Vadum and Let 'Volir have been) why do we need to split up Blue Team and Osiris (for one thing do Locke and the Chief really need to be on the same team) - why not just have a Swords of Sanghelios team: potentially involving Rtas 'Vadum, Tul 'Juran or a new trio of Elites as the supporting cast - maybe Vale as a liaison? (Let’s be honest: the future of Osiris is more shady than anything else at this point - Buck could and possibly should command his own squad, Vale is so specialised she may be needed elsewhere, etc.).

Now okay: I get it: people moaned in H2 when you had missions where the focus wasn’t the Chief, people moaned in H5 where you had missions where the focus wasn’t the Chief, and people moaned that the Blue team missions felt wierd but likewise the Reach campaign was one of the best Halo campaigns ever. Plus H5 and Reach’s team dynamics did bring the campaign more in line with what, canonically, the default operation of a Spartan should be: teamwork - not just within a team, but in terms of a larger operation, coordinating with other teams. H;CE, H2, H3, and H4 all had specific reasons why Chief had been separated from his team and was working alone. Even a hyper-lethal vector like Noble-6 became less effective (to the point of being killed) when alone and outnumbered.

If people really want the Chief to be reunited with the Arbiter in the same team then sure we can do that, but in that case Palmer probably ends up commanding Blue Team, which is just wierd. We are told in H5 that Blue team have more missions together than any other team in UNSC history: why break that up?

We know so little about the story for Halo 6: it’s for the writers and 343 to decide on the direction they want to take it, then on the dynamics of how that will happen - do we go back to Arby + Chief, do we have two or three perspectives on the story, again, etc. or do we get a ‘super team’ which is bigger than 4?

For MP though: if Spartan operations with SoS are more common (c.f. Needler Hog) then MP playable elites need to happen.

I always thought it would be fitting to have a resurrected Didact to fight along with. Since he was composed we give him a special promethean body that works similar to spartans.

Edit: Or Rtas Vadum is cool with me.

Woah, that would be intense.

All of you hoping they bring back playable elites in Halo 6 and Im sittinf here like wheres my playable brute.I wanna go Ape crazy

Honestly, I’m up for four playable races:
Spartan
Elite
Brute
Promethean

Thoughts?

My prayers for halo will all have been answered if they take the hint and add elites back. So happy about split screen.

Seeing how our neighboring communities are rejoicing over split-screen and black undersuits returning in future halos, this gives me hope that 343 also has something in store for us!

Ji kri wort skritz ji naion! Ib Sanghelios!

And some grunt mini games! If you’ve ever played halo pc, running around levels as a grunt was fun to do!
