[color=gold]Wouldnt it be awesome if Halo 2 had mechs. It would make sense for the U.N.S.C. to have mechs for the cheif to use.[/color]

While interesting, I think that adding mechs would take away from the "halo" feel and end up turing halo into tribes or somthing like that...

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.

The chief is a mech.

I thinks mechs are iffy for halo 2 too many controls and the whole reason MC is such a great soldier is because he is a ground shooter best not to hide in some beast

Just wait for Mechassault 2. Then you will get mechs as well as tanks and other stuff. Even Mech jacking.

sure, lets throw in some Oz corp mobile suits too, haha, i hope im not the only one who knows what those are,i think the human race was more concentrated on space colonization that making mechs, and i doubt that they could have mad any when the war started

He is a mech. His suit is an exoskeleton that enhaces his abilities. He may not a mech in the true sense of a 50 story bohemouth, but he is wearing mechanized armor.

What would be the point to a mech? If anything that is a downgrade from what the Chief's armor already is.

Oooh, yeah. Don't mention anything about mechas, mechs, power suits, or anything related to maned robots around here. Youll just get flamed. Fanboys dont take kindly to the subjects of mechs or Killzone. Just remember those two when posting a thread Jnice.

It's not that mecha aren't awesome. I like them. It's just the simple fact that it's more realistic that tanks and the like be used. Tanks and Jeeps don't require complicated and sensitive hydraulics and servos that require intensive maintenance. Also, the legs on a mecha are easily a weakness and difficult to armour without further reducing the maneuverability.

Compare this against a Tank or Jeep which can move at a much faster speed, carry just as much weaponry and presents a more compact targeting profile and you have to wonder what's the point.

Now, a 100+ ton mecha that carries infantry and vehicles into battle, by merely walking through the enemy lines while simultaneously blazing away with it's weaponry... Now that's plausible but not easily pilotable.

You something along the lines of the AT-AT from the Star Wars universe? That sounds cool, but its more impracticle considering the Pelican is much more useful than a four legged troop transport.
Oh well, Im fine with the current vehicles, except Id love something like a larger tank that was more for taking out buildings and such since the enviroments can be altered.

everyone in the millitary that works with tanks will tell u that in 20 or 30 yrs tanks will be extink on the battlefeild and i think a mech would be kool and resonable in the yr halo is set in but its already to late to do anything with a mech in the halo universe and besides they would just get melted by plasma anyway becuase mechs are too slow. But if it was a GUNDAM then who knows how the war would go for the humans

Funny. Anyone's who's anyone knows that the future of military land compaigns in 20 to 30 years involves computer controlled autonomous tanks and fast attack vehicles working in wireless unison.

Gundams rock but they wouldent fit in with Halo2. Though I would like to be able to cause the dveistatoin of Wing Zero's twin buster rifle in Halo. :))
