Spartan or Elite

As the title states, what race do you prefer to play as on Multiplayer mode?

For me, I prefer Elite.

Spartans.

Move around quicker

Elites are larger now, yes, but don't need health packs.

still haven't played reach but im sure im gonna like the elites more like in halo 3

Elites have changed a little from Halo 3. They're mainly taller than spartans now and look a tiny bit different.

well that's not too much

Also, they don't need health packs, and as usual are immune to headshots from behind.

they have health packs again?

Yes. Remember, this is before the first Halo, so the armour is still in the prototype stage to where your health doesn't automatically regenerate.

Elites are over powered, faster and have too much health. :/

I'm a female sparten, they are smaller and harder to spot than male.

I'm guessing Glai has live?

I'd play Spartan.

I have live. You could add me if you want.

No I don't have live. Too much money.

Anyways I agree, Fluffy, Females are smaller so are thus harder to spot.

you know i think i'll set aside other m for this i've heard too many good things about Reach

You'll love the game.

Back on topic. I do agree that Elites are stronger and faster but they're also bigger targets.

I hate that so much, but I really never play Invansion, or Elite v Spartan that much

I haven't gotten far with the custom game modes...

Anyways, yea, you could say Elites have a definite advantage in Reach.

But elites are easier to headshot, they have massive heads you see. :3

But I choose not to use them online because it's cheap :/

i have found that elites are a lot tougher than spartans, they can take a few more shots when they have no shields. The female character model may be smaller but the hitboxes are exactly the same as the males, so while your head may not be visible, the hit box is just above what your taking cover behind. so you can still be headshotted.

I'd say the Elites are my fav simply because they have evade which is such a usefull tool. I don't fully understand why sprint and evade are armour abilities though, they should just be standard.
