Halo Vehicle Wishlist/Ideas

I think it would be pretty cool if they made a underwater vehicle like a submarine. Also the falcon back.
I think you know what i mean by difficult. The way halo combat style is setup that type would be hard to incorporate. And would probably change the halo experience altogether.
The Forerunners are centuries, if not millenia, more advanced than humanity. The thing had shielding that was only destructible from inside the shield itself. We were still using physical projectiles, whereas they were blasting away with energy weapons. 'The best we've got' was never going to be able to defeat the best they've got, no matter how many ships we had.
Anyway, we're getting sidetracked.
Yeah, but how often do maps have bodies of water? I suppose it could be done, but the only reason it works in games like Battlefield is because those maps are gigantic, and they accommodate for it. Without scaling Halo maps, you'd be using the subs/boats in tiny little lakes ponds and puddles. With scaling, it just won't feel like Halo anymore
But in a nonlogical, let's all imagine ridiculous things that would be awesome world, I totally support this! I also support gigantic mechs. So anything could happen!
Though a UNSC air vehicle would accepted well. The Falcon is from Reach and therefore older, so we probably wont see the falcon return. (plus it was horrible, in matchmaking at least) Perhaps a type of hover plane or modified hornet is what we will see.
I think that the Falcon could return/be useful in newer Halo games, if the thing had a turret on the front which the pilot could operate, similar to how it was in New Alexandria in the Reach campaign.
I actually hope that they don't bring back the Hornet. The power that thing had as a little ridiculous.
I guess so. But I'd still go with the Hornet rather than the Falcon that's worthless without at least 1 teammate.
If you read the original post, I did suggest that a Falcon with a front mounted turret for the pilot would make it a more viable vehicle for MM and Customs.
Wasn't that how the Falcon was in the Reach campaign? I don't know why they were different in MM though.
Maybe Bungie thought it would've been overpowered.
I have no idea why they cut front turret from Multiplayer. It would give the Falcon greater firepower, but the vehicle itself is pretty easy to destroy anyway. If anything, it would balance the Falcon against vehicles and weapons.
Not necessarily fair for the guys on the ground
yeah sure, if you have a rocket launcher, or the time to sit on a high position for several minutes surging DMR shots at it
Not even close. The falcon could just sit above the map at a good distance and shoot everyone it saw. Nobody would be able to do anything, and they might not be able to step out of cover.
The turret was a burst fire affair. It was only really usually at mid range, due to it's accuracy, similar to the turret seats on the sides. You could suppress enemies, yes, but if they got a Spartan Laser, Rocket Launcher, Plasma Launcher, Grenade Launcher(with a good enough aim), Sniper Rifle, Scorpion, Banshee, Gauss Hog, Rocket Hog...hell even a lucky Plasma Pistol shot could bring the thing down. The only time I ever saw a Falcon last very long in Matchmaking was when the pilot was both extremely skilled and extremely lucky.
Then why is it that their handheld weapons are no better than ours? And one of our spartans is able to take down hundreds of promethians
They could incorporate a new gametype. Call it s.o.s or something. Purely, ship vs. ship combat. Soon as you spawn you are automatically boarding a falcon, pelican, phantom (vehicle of choice) etc.
I'd rather see it incorporated into a regular match somehow, probably powered down a bit, and also into forge. And I have heard the idea of space combat before. I could imagine it working perfectly fine, but I wouldn't be too into that for long. Besides, you know that I already made ship vs ship combat better than 343 ever could!
The reason one Spartan can take down hundreds of Prometheans is because he's/they're, depending on if you're playing Campaign or Spartan Ops, the player player character, they are hardly going to make common enemies nigh on unkillable.
Can we get back to suggestions and ideas now?
