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 don’t understand why 343 has abandoned the playable Elites, because most people enjoyed them. I’m hoping the Elites make a return in Halo 6 with the classic design. And not just as a playable race in multiplayer, but even the campaign. Arbiter had great armor in Halo 5, but he was so huge and brolic. That goes against how Elites are usually portrayed, and it hurt especially seeing my favorite character Thel Vadam looking so gross.

> > Yeah, heres to hoping for playable H3 elites! In all seriousnes though, if arbiters new armor is here to stay: please change him back to his original body, (H2A preferbly) I can’t look at him in Halo 5 and say "Here we have THE -‘the’ as in Thel Vadam- Arbiter.
> > However what I don’t like whit the H2A elites (in the campaign) is what they’re lacking: Their hands are compleatly exposed, they have no armor at all over belly, no scale armor like 3 or reach over the belly, their necks are also compleatly exposed, wich make it look like their helmets could fall off any second, and of course- they have dem real tiny feet. They look too reliant on shields, whit little to no ballistic protection

> I think all elites will change back to the original body, people can say their different phenotypes all they want but what it really is, is a design change, like MCs armour from 3-4, 343 tried to make them more big and scary which is fair enough but off course a lore explanation is needed behind every change instead of just saying we spruced them up abit, for example in halo reach the elites are clearly different but they are not a different type.
Yeah I do agree with the Dave’s Anniversary criticism. They did look quite exposed, but for the most part, they were pretty classic. It was a nice breath of fresh air from the AWFUL Halo 4 & 5 Elites. As a HUGE Elite fan, both games really really really annoyed me. Like, when I first saw them, I had to take a break. But when Anniversary came out? Maaaaan, it was such a relief. I hope that if these designs for the Elites (well for all other races, really) come back, that they do at least give the scale armor, and that they do cover up the neck more. And yeah, I want Arbiter’s new armor, but only with Thel in his classic design. They can do it. And yeah, that whole “different phenotype” thing is an excuse to cover up the awful new 343 design. Like, I’m fine if they even bring in a Halo Reach Elite design, because while they were bigger, it did make them more accurate in size. They were still quick, they still had a great body shape, and they still had their elegance. Though, they need to fix the Reach faces a bit. Not a bunch, just a bit. They need that skin that you could reeeeally see in Anniversary. Other than that, I’d be fine with the Reach design.
