And Warthog, don’t worry about it. Trust is big. We can’t just go out and buy Halo when it’s announced anymore because our trust was lost. That’s big, don’t worry about it.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m skeptical myself, but I still gotta point that out. It would be veeeery odd to include undersuits over Elites. They had to really dig for that suggestion, but the demand for Elites is right in front of their faces. Only time will tell, but still, sure is interesting.

Indeed, skeptical though I may be, I will believe it when I see it. If they return I sure would like to see the armor set from halo head hunters, if anyone has seen the animated version of the novel you’ll see what Im talking about. Here’s a little reminder: “You will not be so brave, when we carve you whit our blades, and you scream your sequence to the stars”…

Yep, I’ve had it listed for a while.It’s the Silent Shadow Armor.

This thread has so many comments! 800+ pages? 343 gotta be hearing our cry!

I really miss the fact that you could play as elites, especially with all this new Spartan armor, just imagine how many elected armor there could be, with elites there could be new machinama

Maaaan I adore the Silent Shadow armor. The duo in Headhunters had amazing armor themselves, but of course me being the Elite fan that I am, the Silent Shadow armor excited me way more, lol.

Same here. Man those elites were so badass! I just love one of them holds the spartan by the throat, and another carves the helmet whit his blade. The elites used to be awesome. I also like that part in the first graphic novel when shipmaster smashes his fist in one of the armrests at the minster of ecology’s throne, breaking it. But now in halo wars 2 they look realy scrawny. I mean, I like that they are slim, elites were both slim and muscular, as oposed to HW2

Compare that to seeing them in a trailer in multiplayer and/or campaign. Fans would go NUTS. And Warthog, don’t worry about it. Trust is big.

Yeah that’s true, they’re too scrawny in HW2. The Silent Shadow Elites had a real good size to them. They were slim, but powerful looking, the way all Elites should look.

They created so many armors and armor remakes with slightly different textures, that they rushed it and put no time and effort into it. Think of it this way with the amount of crap they added, they could have just as easily added Elites with the time they spent on all those armors and let’s be honest the armors weren’t even good. I’d say only 20% of the armors created were actually good, the rest were abominations. Anyway… My point is they could have easily spent time adding Elites instead of making all those horrible armors.

They’ve had 2 chances with 2 different games to add them, a lot of people have wanted the classic look to return and they didn’t in 2 different games so hopefully 3rd times a charm. Never understand why it was taken out and I’ve heard poor excuses for why some wanted it removed, after Reach…I was hoping for more playable races but instead we got less.

I have to see enough gameplay to decide whether or not it’s gonna be good enough, which is sad, because I’ve always been here for Halo since Halo CE. But, I’ve gotta give them props for announcing splitscreen. That’s greatly appreciated, and they’ve earned some of my trust back because of it. I really believe they’re seeing this huge request on Waypoint, because like Warthog said, this is over 800 pages long. There’s no way they aren’t seeing how major this is to fans. So I don’t know. They’ve got a lot of time, and I think it’ll be catered towards Elites eventually.

Exactly! Slim, muscular and deadly! However lets not dwell on it too much, I think people has gotten our point.

General Trex! Good to see you supporting the playable elite endeavor!
Halo Wars 2 is important, but this must be addressed! hahaha!

I think a big reason that playable elites were not in halo 5 is because they are really trying to make the multiplayer balanced and have even starts.

so the issue is that the new abilities are spartan abilities, if you had elites sprinting, powersliding, SPARTAN charging and ground pounding it would not only look absolutely ridiculous but wouldn’t make any sense story wise.

I love playable elites and wanna see them return, which is another reason why I think they need to find a way to innovate that doesn’t change the core mechanics of halo. Equipment in h3 is a great example of how you can change things and add things without messing with core halo mechanics.

The sad part is that the more people defend these new abilities that change the core mechanics of halo, the more we are likely to never see playable elites again.

I actually don’t understand why it would look ridiculous, would look awesome in my opinion. However I am a bigger fan of the classic gamestyle. But when it comes to inovation, I honestly don’t see a reason to change the core gameplay. Just give us new maps, new weapons, equipment, armor and such. Build around the classic gameplay, it realy is timeless - and that comes from someone who didn’t even grow up whit halo, yet still find halo 3 to be superior to H4-5

How is this on the top list of the forum boards? Lol

This is just a VERY random idea I have, but it might be cool if you could play as an avatar from each faction in Halo 6. So basically, UNSC has Spartans, the Covenant have Elites, the Banished have playable, energy-shielded Brutes, and finally, playable Promethian Soldiers with rechargeable shields (but no teleporting). This, along with customizable armor for each faction, might be a very interesting addition to the multiplayer part of the game. So, just an idea for 343. :slight_smile:

Cause it’s important!
Spartans may think down of this crusade to allow Elites to enter the War Games, but it is a prime necessity for their training!
If Spartans only kill Spartans, how are they going to fight prometheans?

I would love for elites to come back to matchmaking! That’s how you identify the noobs playing as dinos lol

Well I mean come on man they are called “spartan abilities” for a reason. The logic of why elites would ever be exactly like Spartans in every way destroys what little alien feel they have left. Plus the models of the elites would look cheesy doing the things the Spartans do, even the Spartans look a bit ridiculous with some of them.

Well, yeah I can see where you’re coming from, but it is an arena shooter, everyone starts off whit the same. Then again, they could do some sort of equivulents for the elites, that look different, but fills the same purpose.
