Sorry if this has already been confirmed or denied, but in one of the old (newly posted) screenshots, it shows a banshee using the boost abilty here. I think this could add a ton of stratedgy to the game. As well as boosting back to your base to help protect it, or run over people with ease. What do you think?

You shouldn't forget the new rocket capabilities with tracking as well as acceleration, so you might have that trailing rocket catch you before you reach safety.

One of the mods hinted at that maybe the fuel rod is gone perhaps.

Yeah, Bungie never mentioned before that Banshees could boost. Looks like they slipped up.

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


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

As someone pointed out without the fuel rod it just turns the Banshee into a flying ghost. Fuel rod has to be there to make it different.
