Well, I really liked Halo 2, from level 1 to level 15.

But I could imagine some really smart military vehicles :eek: , for this high-tech army. Both the 'jeep' (can't remember the name of it right now), and the Scorpion Tank are used several times. I could be funny with new vehicles every time.

Maybe a few tanks more, i liked this 'Scorpion' :eek: very much.

The vehicles in Halo 2 are not realistic for the 24th century. It would seem that they would have a better equiped supply of weapons and vehicles. But the covenant on the other hand have very high-tech weapons, along with even more technology in their vehicles. Halo 2 is stiil da bomb though :cool:

I would like to see the ATV brought back, maybe even a motorcycle. I don't know what you could do with it but might be fun. the Scorpion is a ton of fun and maybe a few other tank variations would be cool. the humans also need their own flying vehicles to balance out the ghost and banshee...like some apache type helicoptors or hover craft or something like that. Surely to god in the year 2500 or whatever we have something that gets off the ground!

Well, we have pelicans and longswords, but I doubt we'll ever pilot those.

Master Chief
12-27-2004, 10:48 PM
I want to pilot the blasted things..if we can't pilot those..they should give us somethign else.

We need to get those funky-fandango jet-packs that those elites got in the first level.

G65_The _Strange_One
12-29-2004, 10:51 PM
:) That's a good idea, to get the ranger's jetpacks. They aren't as fast as the banshee, and you would still have your gun... That just might work! I really want to drive the shadows, though... Even though they were only in one level, I sure liked them! I do see why Bungie didn't let us pilot those though... But if they let us pilot pelicans, I don't see why we shouldn't be able to drive those. Another thing I think the MC and the arb should be able to do is pick up those turrets that Jonson carries in the beggining of Cairo, and the plasma turrets you see grunts sometimes lugging around, like right before beating up Regret in Regret... Ideas, ideas! And I know this has nothing to do with vehicles, but put back in the old Assult Rifle, but still have duel-wieldable SMGs. And back to vehicles... More Guass Warthog! I can't remember a single point in campaign where you got to use it, and the only map where it is a default vehicle is Zanzibar. Speaking of maps, all the maps plus more! All the maps from Halo:CE, and Halo 2, plus new ones, with all the game types (even race ). I would also like an all air multi-player level, where you could be in a banshee with the fuel rod, or a pelican or a phantom, or, like in the last post, a in a ranger's jetpack with infinate ammo and Rocket Launchers and/or Fuel Rod Cannon.
Well that went on a [I]LOT longer than I expected.

4)Motorcycle/quad

ah the atv sounds kool but i really dont know about the motorcycle. know if it was a dirt bike that would be kooler. because you can drive that on both smooth surface and rough turain.

actually the gauss hog is on metropolis after you get out of the tunnels and kill that sniper. a marine drives up to you when you jump on the ground. and the hog is on zanzibar and god i forgot the name, the one in a city with the banshee and stuff.

iZma3l
01-01-2005, 08:32 PM
yeah i think the jet pack thing would be awesome but the controls would be all screwy i would think i think the gauss warthog is the best though even though you only touch it like once in campaign mode its still good i would like to see atleast three maybe four new types of vehicles in the third one

G65_The _Strange_One
01-01-2005, 08:46 PM
Guess I don't pay attention enough. :o But I have a plan for the ranger's jetpacks. First of all, when you got in it, you stay in first person. As for the controls...
You can duel weild, and throw grenades. You can't zoom though. The crouch button would be to gain height, and the zoom button would be to descend. You stay at the height you've ascended or descended to, and you would leave the rest of the controls the same. You would move forward or back and look around just like you were on the ground.

iZma3l
01-01-2005, 08:56 PM
that might work but the zoom thing alot of people would have a problem with i think that you should be a be to zoom but since if you get caught in the open where are you going ot go so zoom away. just dont get caught

i would want to see an ATV in the game, as well as like a human banshee maybe, like a helicopter or sumthing

master_krull2087
01-02-2005, 12:40 AM
I like the idea of the ATV and the jet pack. But, to add on the ATV a mini gauss or a chain gun.... I want the gauss. The idea of haveing a underwater map is off, but maybe a map where you can one base on land and another in the water like an small island if not the base itself. And you can go down the base to look out of windows underwater to see your teams boats or the enemy coming near. Then that wouldn't be to bad.

Big Willy
01-03-2005, 09:30 PM
ATV with either a rear-mounted chain gun or just so another soldier could hop on like with the passenger seat in the hog

Dirt Bike with ability to have a passenger like above

Pelican Dropship, you load up a load of marines and attack those high places, plus the chain gun and Anvil rockets or missles or what ever they are

Jet pack could be cool

Maybe a new version of the hog that is lower to the ground and harder to flip, more like a dune buggy than a jeep, maybe with side mounted jack hammer rockets, and I miss the indestructable hog, except for when your enemies use them in multi player

A boat could be cool, like the PT boats the Brown Water Navy used in Nam, with two 50 cal's one aft and one fore, it would be tight with a level that had two bases seperated by water, not small islands, that way you could do Pelican drops

Make that covenant amoured troop transport vehicle a heck of a lot faster

Make the Banshee bombs available, it sucked not having them

iZma3l
01-04-2005, 02:54 AM
thats cool and all but its too much fire power for one person to have in the game its like a tank round to shoot a banshee bomb and you can hit anywhere on the map you want its a little unfair so is the whole pelican thing it would be really cool i would use it but it wouldnt be fair like the tank and the wraith the both shoot but the move slow and shoot slow so you can get up on them the banshee would be like on ill fly so no one can hit me for a while then i spawn kill which is gay to wake up to a tank round or something in your face but i like the idea of all that fire power but it has to be even for everyone if not one person can just get in one of those and own the whole level

French Toast
01-04-2005, 09:32 PM
i like the idea of smaller, faster vehicles. but i dont really care for weapons on them. having a chaingun on an atv is kinda dumb. i would just like a few vehicles that could be used for escape purposes only.

mr_valentino20032000
01-04-2005, 11:13 PM
there needs to be a speed burst on the warthog and then it would be unstoppable. I would also like there to be more than one type of "īn the air" flyer (the banshee) I think if there was more than one then it might be more challenging to defeat those vehicles while they were in the air. last but not least I think that you should be able to fire while using a speed burst.

Dark Eagle
01-05-2005, 12:32 AM
Human vehicles, in my opinion, should never get the speed burst that the Covenant ones have. I like the two races to be as different as possible. Also, I think that firing while speed boosting would be too good; there would be next to no reason to ever be traveling at normal speed.

G65_The _Strange_One
01-05-2005, 01:11 AM
No speed boost for warthog! It wouldn't be cool to have an unstoppable vehicle anyway... But You're right mr valantino, they should have another flying vehicle. But again, underwater vehicles would be cool.

Spartan

There's a reason, it's called variety! It would add a lot more tactics instead of just having a choice between hovering or flying. A classic example is the Metropolis level (I think) in co-operative, where you first find out that you can't sit on the side of the tank (Scorpion), what are you going to do, take the warthog for a spin? Of course you wouldn't, you'd jump on the scorpion and try to balance on. Leaving the warthog to it's lonesome, what you should do is take the warthog and race up to the Wraith which is waiting to blast the scorpion to pieces, jump on and take out the driver and take it for yourself. Then you have two tanks rolling across the bridge wreaking havoc instead of one. Variety, use it!

01-05-2005, 07:59 PM
Covenent are considered our technological overlords, meaning our technology is not quite "up to par" with theirs. I guess humans haven't learned how to harness the powers of natural plasma because bullets seem the most powerful thing they have at the time. Though it would be nice to see some kind of human aircraft

Dark Eagle
01-05-2005, 09:14 PM
Well, we've seen Pelicans and Longswords, and Halcyons if you count those as aircraft. I think it would be nice to have more action from the back of a Pelican, like a rail shooter sequence, maybe an aerial chase with some Banshees that the MC and the Marines in the back of a Pelican have to gun down. I'd also like to be able to pilot Pelicans and Longswords, and maybe even take command of a Halcyon. A full-fledged station would be a cool base of operations for a more Silent Cartographer-type mission where you could go from post to post, manning the guns or giving orders. That could provide for some cool RTS-type scenarios.

French Toast
01-05-2005, 09:19 PM
no speed boost on human vehicles. how would they do it? the ghost and banshee hover and are not restricted fy friction so its easy for them to boost. the warthog would need one hell of an engine to get going that fast. but who cares, it goes pretty fast already.

iZma3l
01-07-2005, 02:02 AM
nitrous oxide thats the only way they would ever go that fast but they dont need to they are fine i wouldnt mind seeing a whole load of new vehicles but either way its cool

Gruntaloob
01-07-2005, 03:05 AM
The Warthog (When in my hands) is indestructable anyway.
And not an "underwater" boat, one that you can have on the waves.
I'd still like to pilot a pelican though, I'd be "Friendhammer" and would broadcast spam to all the people... ah the good stuff.

big chief
01-07-2005, 10:48 AM
i would love to see a human attack vehicle like a helicopter but we already have the pelican technology so it would have to be kind of a g-police attack vehicle and that would totally rule!

Big Willy
01-07-2005, 11:13 PM
To Dark Eagle:
I like your ideas, but Halo isn't a fighter or RTS game. (Though I love both types along with FPS) I don't like the idea of the MC comanding something like a halcyon, he was only meant to command small squads, although he is a brilliant tactition he is just not the type that would command a huge group, his home is on the battle field, just like he said. The next logical step that might happen with a Halo game, if it even happens at all, is to incorporate squad based game play like the Ghost Recon series. I like your idea on the rail gun sequence out of the back of a pelican, that would be tight. Again, I am not trying to insult you Dark Eagle, I just thought I would voice my oppion on the subject.

P.S. I am a little dissapointed that no one even commented on my idea of a dune buggy-like warthog. You guys haven't even considered that as an option, it could be called the Piglet or something like that.

Okay we have the pelican right, logically wouldn't there be a gun ship type aircraft?

Racer
01-07-2005, 11:40 PM
i like the vehicals but upgrade some and put some higher technology in the vehicals...i wouldnt mind seeing the ghost with rockets i was thinking about that today while shooting at the wrath :eek: and some of the weapons like sword somtimes the shot gun would be nice doubled up just in slayer or something but since you cant cock the shotgun i guess its out of the question. BTW big willy i do like that idea with the dune buggy :)

Sy Borg
01-10-2005, 05:53 PM
DOODS, DOODETTES, the mongoose should be added.
for those of you lesser halo fanatics, the mongoose is the 4-wheeler.
the mongoose should have front mounted rockets, side mounted flame thrower, and rear-mounted mortar-fire.
THAT would be THE ULTIMATE VEHICLE!!! :cool: :cool:

Dark Eagle
01-10-2005, 07:56 PM
I'd definitely like to see the mongoose added to the game, but not with all those weapons. That would be TOO good.

It's spelled reckon, not recon. Recon is scouting. And I do think it would be cool to fly a Pelican or Longsword.

Gruntaloob
01-12-2005, 05:51 AM
Oh! And making super powered vehicles is a crappy idea! Who wants something you can just drive in with and blow the hell outa everything? It takes no brain to work and that just sucks! As long as the 'Hog is indestructable, you can take the guns off of the tank, the plasma out of the rifle, and the mag out of the num.... or not... don't do that. No! I didn't mean it! I don't want to shoot a num! Anyway, It's fun to see a 'Hog go flying or a tank riding on a hog. If you beef everything up, it would be to boring... kinda like choosing people on Bloody Roar: Primal Fury. At first it's fun to unlock everything, then it sucks because you have all the powers in the world and nothing to use them on.

the gauss warthog is the stuff i would rather have it than the minigun one i would like to see more close combat levels where vehicles are useless but they are there anyways so its like no one wants to use it because its instant death to touch it maybe a match like paintball where you dont kill it just shows you your stats on accuracy where you hit the most like let head upper torso i dunno im rambling but an accuracy game would be intresting or a game where you have to do something with a vehicle i dunno i need to jsut go to sleep ive been up way too long

One thing that would be freakin awesome, would be if you could either hijack or just get to fly a phantom. Maybe you could be the Arbiter and fly your troops into battle, or hijack it as the Master Chief and get Marines to get inside of it and fly them into different areas.

Dark Eagle
01-26-2005, 03:26 PM
It would also be really cool to be able to operate one of the Phantom's turrets. You could have a marine do a flyby over a Covenant base while you pummel it with the Phantom guns, and then you get dropped off to mop up and head inside. That would make a great opening to a level.

about the warthog issue: were so greedy, and are never satisfied. no matter how much bungie puts in the games, or how many halo games they make, we will always want more. after halo, we wanted a halo 2, with more weapons, vehicles, characters playable, etc...(it can go on forever). hell, i was dissapointed about the lack of new hogs in the game, but they did alot more didnt they? i think bungie is cruel how they create things in the game or create things for people to see online, then not put it in for us (the energy swords in halo 1). i guess it gives us something to hope for. but even if they gave us this stuff, we would find something else to whine about (myself included). people are already whining about a halo 3 :rolleyes: but i want some new warthogs and human vehicles in halo 3 damnit :D , which they would have to be mad if they didnt make it with the cliffhanger we got.
