: Is anyone else able to still distinguish who's who? I don't think I've been
: able accurately set one Elite rank apart from each other since Reach and
: the visual effects in Halo 5, while impressive as hell, further compound
: the problem. Right now all I can recognize specifically are the Stealth
: Elites and the Rangers, who are set apart by role and not rank. The same
: problems are also evident with the Grunts too. With both enemies, their
: armor color, once proud and bright, are heavily subdued and each rank's
: unique armor types are totally lost on me unless they have a gigantic
: headdress that I could signify as an officer or whatever.

: I'm not even aware of what I'm supposed to be looking for with Promethan
: Soldiers. The only enemy, potentially by rank, that I can see a clear
: difference with are the Crawlers. The normal rank and file Crawler has a
: smooth body while the higher ranking variety are like porcupines with
: spikes or whatever coming out from the back.

: I miss being able to tell who I should target first, who to avoid altogether
: until the last possible moment, and who I can get out of the picture right
: off the bat. Graphical upgrades and unfortunately poor designs have really
: hindered any ability for even a keen eyed fan like myself to distinguish
: an individual enemy by their rank, role, and how exactly they could kick
: my butt.
