I don't see any problems with playing as an elite.

Eh...they seem easier to headshot, and easier to hit in general because of their stance.

But I suppose it's all personal.

lol, if that option is in there I hope the main character isn't masterchief, it'd be weird for him to suddenly turn into a girl. I hope your kidding about that.

Bungie said they were adding (or considering adding...Veegie, wanna help me out here?) a female voice option for the multiplayer game.

They've already been recording...
But no, it wouldnt affect SP ;)

I so hope its no kind of stereotypical one though ("Like, I so like, just got shot in the shin...Like yeah *giggle*")...But I'm sure they wouldn't

That option will be for MP.

I'd assume the character won't have lines, but rather female grunts and groans, like the DoA4 Spartan, Nicole.

I'm sure it won't be anything out of the ordinary.

Thank goodness, can you imagine chief talking in a female voice, unsettling!

Actually the quite the contrary; if an elite turns around what you'd think was a headshot was really just in the neck, meaning no 1 shot kill. >_>
Hence why people playing zombies that are elites spin while running at you to avoid the 1 hit headshot.

That argument comes up a lot, but really...what are they going to do? They can't attack you when their back is to you, so who cares if they do that?

Yea, then hit them in the back, and that's a one hit kill.

I'm talking about if they're being sniped, from a distance. Now the master chief does some amazing things but last I checked he's not elastic man and can hit people from up to 100 yards >_>

i like halo's campaign way better than halo 2's the first level where you were the arbiter (i forgot its name) was way too long, same with some other levels, halo 1's were nice and to the point, and a hell of a lot more fun. i love trying to beat the library on legendary, halo 2 doesnt match up at all with that.

halo 2's multiplayer is pretty fun with the right people player, its all the gay modders on xbl that made me quit playing, halo ones is always fun when im playing with friends, halo 2 is a different story, it always glitches out and its gay...

so halo pretty much pwns halo 2

Halo 1's campaign was better(like, way better!). Pretty much everything else goes to Halo 2(but it's campaign sucked so bad that the games were sorta even). And hopefully there'd be hunters in Halo 3 multiplayer(really slow, vulnerable in stomach, otherwise great(but they'd unfortunately pwn everyone in no shields(because they don't have any))).

God I hope not. Heaven nor hell know a bipd as unbalanced as the Halo 2 Elite.
Bungie weekly update 3/2/2007 wrote:Next to Nathan was the new Elite model. And it is quite lovely – something that, were it in multiplayer, for example, you might want to play as. Tyson promises that the Elite model will be more fairly apportioned this time around. The current Halo 2 Elite models have some idiosyncrasies that make folks choose Spartans way more than they might ordinarily. It’s not a true balance issue, per se, but it’s being tuned as we speak for H3. And rightly so. Elites look superbadass. Real word. Look it up. If you can’t find it, maybe your dictionary is too liberal.
Seems to kind of hint at it being in MP...
