I would love to see both designs together in multiplayer. Think about what people could do with Halo videos! The new v.s. Old Elites! Like an sangheili civil war! Sorry if I spelled that wrong.

I like the idea of having the variety of subspecies available to be selected by the players, but I have a few critiques of what you said. First of all, there are more than two subspecies. Second of all, neither subspecies should really be considered new nor old in contrast to the other because, as far as we know, they have both been in the lore just as long as each other. Finally, it wouldn’t make sense for one subspecies to fight as a whole against the entirety of another subspecies, because there are members of both subspecies in the same factions. The same appearance does not equal the same ideology and vice versa.

He most likely implied that Old Design Vs New Design.
I think it would pretty cool to play as elites in halo 6 whenever that comes out. It would not only make halo 6 more interesting, but also make a lot of halo fans that do like elites more happy to play with anyway, make it happan 343.

> 343, you simply must listen to your fanbase. For many years, a great number of people in Halo matchmaking have chosen to play as Sangheili, and have chosen the Elites as their preffered species.
> Especially with every Halo game, we learn more and more about the Sangheili and their culture. With Halo 6 taking place on Sangheilios, it only makes logical sense to have Swords of Sangheilios partaking in War Games simulations with the Spartan 4s! I understand some people’s concern with how Sangheili would operate in matchmaking in terms of performance, and I’ll have you know that perfomance is NOT an issue. Just look at Harvest, Reach…the Sangheili are absolutely not a weak species. As far a as physical cocerns (hitboxes and such), the whole of the Spartan program wouldn’t complain about their opponents being tall.
> 343, if you came to hear me beg, you’ll be dissapointed. But your loyal fans and the ones lost after Reach are asking- nay, demanding that you take the time to please the large portion of your community that prefers the Sangheili. There was honor in Halo once, and there shall be again.
Indeed, the elites physical prowes should never be underestimated, that is why I don’t like the halo wars 2 elites, they look so physically weak!
I actually remember several instances where elites would pick up human and throw them away whit only one hand.

Agreed, it has been stated many times that 343 and Microsoft both hate the Flood, but they still will go to extreme lengths to bring them back. It was also stated that 343 hates the Sangheili (I’m pretty sure we all knew that given recent events) and don’t want them in multiplayer anymore. They think we’d rather play as and/or Witness parasitic -Yoink!-’s than play as the greatest alien race to ever grace the Halo universe.

I’m sorry but ever since the universe section noobs kept getting this wrong, correcting you on this is a reflex lol. The different variations of Sangheili are phenotypes, not subspecies.

I find that hard to believe . though it’s easy to assume that, I recalled someone asking somebody from 343 regarding playable Elites. The person from 343 said he would be shocked if they didn’t return to Multiplayer eventually. So they know that there are many among the community who want the Elites back. I’m also not sure what you mean by hating the flood either.

Yeah I really don’t ever recall 343 saying anything that Silver Reaper said they did. And I know that several members from 343, including Grim, definitely want them to return.

I thought so.
Totally agree
With the art style of Halo Wars 2 being a little closer to the original trilogy, making chief the center of the campaign again, and bringing back split screen if 343i could bring back elites as well Halo 6 could really bring back a lot of older fans who left!
The arbiter in halo wars 2 is what I want the elites to look like, tall and muscular, yet graceful and efficient assasins, and warriors.

Until they at least give us a classic playlist I probably won’t come back, though I admit, a groundpunding elite would look cool

I would much rather they do what HiddenXperia was talking about and have both. Though I would much rather have the taller more muscular design of Halo Reach and Ripa instead of the gangly design of Halo 2A

do you have a source saying 343 industries and Microsoft hate the flood? and sangheili? but this is not likely, have you seen HW2 awakening the nightmare expansion? and multiple 343 industries staff wants them to return and even one has said he’d be shocked if they don’t return eventually.

Honestly, I wish we could just forget those cave trolls to elites, I see no place for them in halo

I disagree entirely My two Favorite designs Are the Reach and 4/5 designs.

I like the Reach elites body design, magnificent, I wasn’t a fan of the armor though. But the H4 and 5 elites are basicly brutes in my opinion.

Yeah the armor went a little overboard with the General and Field Marshal.
I never really understood why they are compared to brutes so much. I mean they’re bigger and meatier than Reach Elites and in the blue team Cut scene it had one that kind of lumbered around. But they don’t really look like brutes, they don’t really move like brutes, and as far as I’ve seen they don’t act like brutes. They just seem like bigger and some what slower Elites. And in gameplay they’re never shown as slower.
I mean, I can understand someone simply not liking the design but they really don’t reminded me of brutes at least not anymore than the Reach Elites in bulky Armor did and that’s just because of their size.
