just wondering.
Elites aren’t playable in Halo 5 anyway.
Helioskrill is about as close as you’ll get to playable Elites in this game. Sorry 
There’s already a thread for this
And FYI, this thread might get locked soon
A question I would like to know the answer to…
I think it’s because people would play as elites so it would be harder for people to get headshots on them.
Because they’re having elites “wouldn’t fit in with the lore” in Halo 5, according to 343i. But I’m sure they did it because their hitboxes are different. I personally disagree with them removing it, as elites are still easy to kill; just have to get used to it. Just like you have to get used to killing spartans vs AI enemies.
They were never there to begin with.
They do fit the lore…
Probably because elites don’t have armor with special abilities in the lore and it would split the customization system. Also hitboxes are f***ed.

actually they do fit the lore (see Anvil) but they are -Yoink- to balance in a competitive situation.

And this man never played Halo 2, 3, or Reach.

Pretty sure he’s talking about Halo 5, not the other games.

I meant Halo 5, guess I wasn’t being obvious enough.

It’s actually easier that’s the problem.

I think what he’s talking about that one screenshot that displayed Elites next to Spartans as if it was customization but that was most likely the earlier build that they must of scrapped because the selection was different from the menu we have now.

Are we all just going to ignore this perfect explanation? We don’t see elites with thruster packs and ground pounds and I can’t imagine an elite sliding up to someone at all.
