Honestly, I love that Halo 4 is doing great, but I've always admired Thel and Rtas, they are the two best characters in the game to me (And Master Chief). Thel is just amazing, he is probably the best attachment of the game especially in Halo 2. I love playing as Thel in Halo 2 and having a strong Elite that can't die with you as well, which is Rtas. I'm not so sad about Elites not available in Halo 4 in Multiplayer, but this Elite Ops thing and also can now be playable in Forge bumped me up a lot. That would be amazing if you could be Rtas or Thel in this new Elites Ops thing, not those new wierd looking Elites. But, I'll love this game ven if no elites on your team anymore.....Who knows, maybe Rtas and Thel's group of elites will come back in an unexpected appearence and help you defeat the Phyco Elites and the Forerunners. We just gotta wait and See.
