well, that's a hard one. halo 4 will come directly after the events of Halo 3 so, i would imagine so.
no Gravemind was the leader of the flood and that virus. The elites in halo 3 join the UNSC marines as they fight the covenant and the flood
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.
The UNSC(Humans), the Covenant (Grunts, Elites, Hunters etc.), and The Flood (parasites)
Because they -the Elites- are taking over Reach, and you are trying to stop them. This is rather confusing to many people as they were allied with the UNSC in previous Halo games, but keep in mind that Halo: Reach is set before even the first Halo game, Halo: Combat Evolved.
Short answer: bad. In Halo: Reach the Elites (Sangheili) are fighting for the Covenant. This is rather confusing to many players as they were allied with the UNSC in previous Halo games, but keep in mind that Halo: Reach is set before even the first Halo game, Halo: Combat Evolved.

unsc is the milatary
The UNSC (United Nations Space Command) are composed of humans and later during the Halo 2 era, Elites (Who broke away from the Covenant in an event called the Great Schism). The "bad guys" are the Covenant. A group of several alien races (Grunts, Brutes, Jackals (called Skirmishers in Halo Reach), Drones, and Engineers) that are determined to destroy Humans and achieve the "Great Journey". In Halo Wars and Halo: Reach, Elites replace the brutes (because the games are prequels).First of all, the brutes replaced the elites after halo 2. the elites didnt replace no one, they were the covenants comanders, than the elites joined the UNSC after halo 2 and the brutes got promoted to commanders. And second, u forget the flood. Soooo yaa
Go to Halopedian.com and look up the Great Schism. It explains in full detail. If you want the short version, here it is. For thousands of years, the Prophets relied on the Elites for Protection and military strength. Then the Prophets betrayed the Elites by replacing them with the Brutes. That's why when you play Halo 3: ODST you'll never see an Elite. Because the Elites were aligned with the UNSC during that conflict. Also, the Elites and Brutes have had a long history of conflict. The next time you play Halo Reach, notice the groups that attack during campaign and firefight. You'll never see a group of Brutes and Elites together. Only groups of Elites or groups of Brutes.
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
