So long as they can take a reasonable amount of fire power, and you can too I am fine with this. No you're wearing tinfoil armor and your enemy are encased in tank armor.

Considering the primary enemies are elites and they were awesome enemies to fight, I have to say I am ready to believe this. For the most part enemy AI in Halo games is a lot sharper than most other games at least so if they are going the extra mile with this one then that's just dandy.

I think it'll really make more of a difference in Leg and Heroic, sure you'll be able to breeze through on normal.
I'm under the impression that they are going to scrap all the difficulty modes and just have 1 set difficulty, which is this feature.

Maybe I misinterpreted the OP.
In the most recent weekly update, bungie showed all of the achievements for the game, there is an achievement for each of the difficulties, so no, it isn't just one set difficulty.

Thank god.

Thanks for the update.
Hah. Yeah no problem. I'm borderline obsessive about halo, I own pretty much everything halo related, so I typically stay up to date on the stuff.

Physically tougher? I don't want to have to use a clip and half of assault rifle ammo to kill one elite.

Edit: Oh wait, just remembered I'm not buying this game anyway.

There's a fine line between 'tough' and 'irritating'.

ARMA 2 had some pretty decent AI, it stuck together in squads, took cover, exhibited movement, scanned the horizons, adopted formations and combat modes, covered each other and used all the equipment it had under its command to the fullest. However if making it tougher meant turning all the difficulty sliders up to max and ticking the super-ai box meaning they'd snipe you instantly at 1000m with a pistol, shoot you through bushes and trees and hear a mouse whispering at 10km.

Hopefully by 'tough' bungie mean that the AI will flank, work together and generally do stuff it didn't in halo 3, rather than just giving you less health and the enemies better weapons/more damage.
