No, players will not be able to play as an Elite in mutliplayer mode in Halo 4. Confirmed by 343i.
No they won't.
Maybe in the future, but not yet.
343 Industries has stated that multiplayer will focus on Spartan IV's NOT Elites. Elites will not be playable in Halo 4.
We aren't sure yet.
The elites aren't on your side on the first mission your on the forward into dawn and you have to fight the covenant
well, that's a hard one. halo 4 will come directly after the events of halo 3 so, i would imagine so.
Dont no don't look like it from the pic.
Most likely in Forge, Custom games and Matchmaking. Campaign? NO
The master chief and the Arbiter, if you go on 4 player, players 3&4 will be elites.
In Halo 4 those Elites are apart of an old splinter cell of the Covenant that never turned away from the Covenant ideas. As you notice there are no Brutes among their ranks because the Covenant Civil War tore the two apart. The Elites that were your allies in Halo 3 returned to their planet.
Halo 4 is called Halo 4.
In Halo 4, you are not actually fighting the real Covenant. Instead, you are fighting a rouge group of the Covenant known as "Storm". This rouge group still believes in the Prophets' teachings. Not all Elites are part of Storm, only the ones that still believe.
