In Response To: Re: ODST Fans Weep (Anton1792)

: I meant aesthetically. I found the Brute's design in Halo Reach to be kind of
: silly looking, personally.

: I'm not sure if it is actually the case that the Brutes only received that
: armour afterwards. Even though they were armourless in Halo 2, we've known
: about Brutes in power armour since Contact Harvest and Halo Wars, haven't
: we? I thought it was tribal differences responsible for some Brutes using
: it and others not.

It was. That and responsibilities within the Covenant. This was explored in "Stomping on the Heels of a Fuss" in Halo Evolutions by Eric Raab. Seems like half the reason that story was written was to explain these differences fictionally.

Always disappointing how people tend to overlook or forget about these things. :(

It's not a retcon guys. It's just a different variant of Brute. Not all members of their species look exactly alike.
