Try a round with each team getting to start at both spawns. Also maybe the brutes would have a better chance if both teams could use more of their arsenals (ie bruteshot) Edit: that said. Love the video can't wait to see more
@mustangbrad22064 жыл бұрын
Love the video but I do think the brutes might have stood a better chance with more variety, a decent amount of captains and some chieftains in the later rounds could definitely turn the tide

I definitely believe that since the elites have energy sheilds they always had the advantage and a key element of the brute forces is their variation in weapons, with the spikers being the main force and the brute shot being used to break members off from large groups I feel like then the brute could have focused more on individual targets, not to mention that one of the brutes main abilities is that when it loses a comrade it can go into a rage mode and take more damage and deal more damage, if that was present in the fight it might have thrown the elites off who dont like being charged by enemies considering they like staying away and being agile

So there's a few things here that made the battling a little unfair.. firstly the spawns, if you can't choose specific location for each spawn you should put them further away so that way not just half the brute team is fighting at any given time. The line spawn is inconvenient when the lines aren't parallel with each other. Maybe spawn the two teams on opposing sides of the map? If not at least a little further away. Secondly the weapons, we all know spikers are garbage we can't kill anything in Reach with those lol. It's not a surprise the elites won at all but at least give both teams all variants of weapons they normally hold to give it some sort of fairness. I.e. brutes use spikers, needlers, plasma repeaters, concussion rifles, and gravity hammers. Maybe including each different variant and rank of both teams would make things even more exciting! Lastly is the map. Amazing job by the way I noticed it was lone wolf instantly and it looks fantastic in the daytime setting! However in relation to the spawns, one team was always at a higher altitude than the other which gives even more of an advantage. Don't get me wrong when it comes to Reach elites will always win against the brutes, (can't say the same about halo 2) but I think the odds should be a little more fair at least. Perhaps in the future you can switch spawn points between each round for possibly a different outcome? All in all it was amazing and I enjoyed every second of it. Keep up the great work please and I've got my bell on for you! :)
