Do the Brutes in Halo 3 have energy shields?
Is the Brute a playable character in Multiplayer?
If they do have energy shields, they would've been perfect for Multiplayer use.

From what I've played, yes, some of the brutes do have energy shields. And, no you can't play as them in multiplayer.

No. Their player model would give them such a distinct disadvantage, much like how Elites were "worse" than Spartans in Halo 2.

Because a blind person using an SMG from a mile away would still be able to hit them.

No way, they aren't giant.
There slightly bigger than spartans.
That's all.
Since the game has Elites, Brutes, and humans as the main races, why not have them in multiplayer.
It just makes sense to have them.

Alright.
The sizes may be different in Halo 3, but there's still a clear difference in height and width.

I see...
That's too bad.
Still, they could have resized the Brutes specificly for multiplayer though.

Brutes in multiplayer would be the most horrible thing ever brought to Halo. Hands down.

Instead of asking us for reasons than we've already shown you, how about you answer this:
Why not?
