Fire Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 The banshee is easy to destroy, it takes 2 rounds of dmr ammo to blow up. So get a friend and focus fire. And it only takes one direct scorpion shot to destroy a banshee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASuperWhiteGuy Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 I hope we get to use all the seats in the Falcon this time instead of just the pilot seat and two gunner seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrometheanSigma Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 YAY!!!! The Falcons are back!!! I don't really like the Hornets all that well. I liked Hornets a lot more than Falcons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Stone501 Posted June 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 I would love to see the chopper again! By far the best vehicle addition to Halo 3! I doubt we see them unless we get some brutes in the campaign. Here what you do 343, you say that this part of the covenant/ elites took some brutes as slaves to fight!!!

The Director Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 The banshee is easy to destroy, it takes 2 rounds of dmr ammo to blow up. So get a friend and focus fire. And it only takes one direct scorpion shot to destroy a banshee. Not if the banshee and the pilot are at full health. I've had many a staredown when I was in a Scorpion and some other guy was doing the banshee bombing thing. Also, it's hard to pull off firing 2 whole clips of DMR ammo at a vehicle that can not only evade, but can shoot and evade so quickly that it is nearly impossible to get an actual lock on with it. Also, good luck pulling off a direct hit from a scorpion against a "flipper". And if it's so easy to destroy, then why are there people who go +30 in 20+ games in a row using it? You don't even have to have that much experience in a banshee to be able to get at least a spree with it. The Scorpion is vulnerable to every single weapon on the map (literally, even your fist). The Banshee, on the other hand, isn't. Plasma Launchers and Rockets will only land a hit against someone who doesn't know how to use a banshee, small arms fire will only attract it's attention, and the only two weapons that are effective against someone who has any experience in a banshee are the Sniper Rifle and perhaps a lucky shot with the Spartan Laser. Oh, and if you get REALLY lucky, you can take it down with a donkey punch. However, you still end up dead in that scenario. The fact of the matter is the Banshee is the hardest to kill and easiest to kill with vehicle on Halo Reach. That makes it OP. Yeah, extra banshee armor plating would be nice. Only if they added some extra armor plating to all of the other vehicles as well, and took away the banshees unlimited evades. I mean seriously, it's a bit of a joke that you can kill a Scorpion tank (a vehicle that is SUPPOSED to be small arms resistant) with the smallest arms in the game (e.g. the magnum and plasma pistol).

PH0T0Nman Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 It would be nice for more air vehicle variation instead of just two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorB77 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 The Banshee is almost as bad as the Scorpion when it comes to being overpowered. I'm not asking for more destruction on the banshee but instead that it makes the tank take more damage. I also want to see the falcon have a little bit more health and I don't want it to be destroyed by one blow by a banshee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuko 'Zarhamee Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'm not asking for more destruction on the banshee but instead that it makes the tank take more damage. I also want to see the falcon have a little bit more health and I don't want it to be destroyed by one blow by a banshee. I'm going to assume that by "it makes the tank take more damage" you mean you want it to be more powerful. Go read the Directors post. If you still want a more powerful Banshee, then keep reading it until you don't. The Falcon doesn't need more health, all that needs ti happen is the Banshee needs to be weakened so the Falcon can take more hits from it without being destroyed.

Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 If there are falcons, give the driver gunner capabilities. At least a weak gun. I hate being a flying target. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkNazo Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I see that falcons are back. Wow, I hope the also have hornets. Hornets were personally harder to drive but I still like them better. If there are falcons, give the driver gunner capabilities. At least a weak gun. I hate being a flying target. I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glory of a Far Dawn Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 As long as you can sit ANYWHERE IN THE FALCON. + Pelican. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firedune22 Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 lol, the banshee in Halo is fixed, having a flip/roll rate similar to that of Halo 3's banshee. The Scorpion in that picture may just be a placeholder model for a slightly updated scorpion Falcon and Hornet are confirmed for Halo 4 There is some pretty compelling evidence that the pelican will infact be useable in halo 4. Watch the end of the Spartan Ops mission and you can see the pelican has 2 turret at the back, not unlike the Falcon. The best thing about the War games canon is that 343i can include any vehicle they want, as it can be "simulated from prior records" on the training floor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Stone501 Posted August 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 the hornet is not confirmed, there was a toy hornet that was from halo 3 being released along side a bunch of halo 4 vehicles. ( you had to read the discrtiptions) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Looks awesome . But i think the aircraft near the Infinity are a hybrid between the Falcon and Hornet. So a transport like the Falcon but with weapons like a Hornet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 I think the falcon ought to have a light machine gun for the driver. I couldn't stand when my gunners were focusing on the scenery instead of the obvious rocketeer locking on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EP1CL363ND Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 For those of you who believe some things are over powered, heres a tip, halos weapons and vehicles have been equally balanced and rely on skill to use them. some people can destroy scorpions with banshees easily, but if you are skilled with a scorpion, it might not be so easy for the banshee driver to kill you.

funnymongo Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 why you guys want halo 1 era vehicles is beyond me (reach was before halo 1 i believe) i would want newer vehicles and i want to fly that damn pelican or at least let me fly it in forge world or something SERIOUSLY pelican and the phantom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fail Master Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 YAY!!!! The Falcons are back!!! I don't really like the Hornets all that well. The hornets were alright cus the driver could actually defend himself and not have to relie on two turret gunners, he had machine guns and rockets so it was pretty effective. The Falcon would be a lot better if the driver had somesort of defence incase his gunners bail or get killed. Anyway...Personally i think the scorpian is underpowered and should be upgraded with a canister shell and a second main gun xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
