I hope when 343i make playable Elites a thing again that the elites have as much depth as playing as a spartan. Games on next gen have so little content for a full priced Game.
We need them! It’s been like 7 years since we had them in a new Halo game(not counting mcc)

I still like the idea of each team being either banished or covenant, the intro could for the covenant be an elite saying “Are we going to allow the arch traitors free reign, brothers? No”! And for the banished it could be Atriox himself saying something along the lines of “It is time to avenge our bretheren whom has fallen in the name of false promise”.
Originaly I thought of it as “false journey”, but I think that “false” promise sounds better.
Edit: Man, it was a while since last I posted here.

The Banished is a Covenant Remnant.

During the h6 beta we gotta voice loud for playable races. If the next halo title doesn’t have a playable race then it would be over a decade without being able to play as anything but a human.

Great idea. This is also something I’ve wanted for some time. Make elites playable, and make brute playable as well. Heck, throw in an unlockable flood character to play as. Get creative.

As I stated earlier, a Classic Battlefront-eque spin-off game involving all the factions would fit this.

Technically yes and technically no.
I think it should be customisable in custom games, like a tab that allows, “all Spartans” “all elites” “player default” and “mixed*” along with changing it in infection for survivors, infected and alpha infected.
*mixed randomises players between Elites and Spartans
Yeah, Brutes would be great too as playable characters, they are vital to Halo just as any species is. I’m bored of Spartans, I like them, but their characters usually bore me, that’s why the Sangheili are so likeable, you can actually read something from them. You never know, we may get what we have been so dearly asking for considering 343’s current excitement with the Banished, I just hope they make the right choice, and heck, let us play as all the armours for Elites there have been, I’d love to see Councillors and Honour Guards, especially because I have characters who wear such armours (alot of my characters wear armour that doesn’t even exist in Halo yet) so I think we are long overdue for some new stuff too.

Yeah, I like spartans, a lot, don’t get me wrong. But the elites have always had more of a apeal to me, their lore and their looks and all. They are after all my favourite sci-fi race, and I like everything from Star Trek to Warhammer 40k

I know this has been tossed around a LOT since Halo Reach however let’s say 343i was to add playable Elites how do you think they could make it ‘Competitively viable’ as well as what features would you like to see playable Elites?
Personal I love to be able to play as Elites in Warzone (helping the Spartans as it would make sense since the UNSC helped end the civil war on Sanghelios) as the simulation would be training Spartans and Elites to work together against Cortana’s ‘Created’. Heck what if 343i was to make a small campaign (like Spartan-ops from H4) for the Elites… as be honest who didn’t like playing as the Arbiter in Halo 2 (or 3 if you were playing co-op)
I know this be irrelevant, but look at first poat on this forum, look how far this got.

Not to mention a game that has you play as only Spartans feels a lot more like a monotony

A spartan ops but with elites would be realy awesome, unless the level design is on par with the spartan ops of course.
But assuming that it had proper level design that would be amazing, but I honestly doubt they do It, since 343 seem to have an extra keen eye for the spartans and much less so for the elites. But those are just my opinions.
Just realised this but if were gonna have elites in halo again… then it might mean sacrificing something else, if we get elites it might mean no reach level customisation, or a less spectacular forge.

Why can’t we have deep Elite customization?
