Will there be any new flying vehicles in halo 2.
Cos in halo the banshee was great but wasnt flyable very often.
And in halo and halo 2 the pelican cant be piloted (so ive been told anyway).
So will there be like a new type of banshee like a bomber/heavy fighter/fihter bomber etc..
Cos seeing as though the covie are invading they would need some kind of siege weapon.
Also will the humans get a attack craft of some discription cos the pelican is a transport and the long sword fighter (the big bomber u escape in at the end of halo) is basically a bomber.
So will the humans get say an attack helicopter or something like that.

i read somewhere that the helecopter was supposed to be in halo 1, but bungie decided it wasn't futuristic enough. But I agree, humans should definately have some sort of flying machine that you can pilot.

Thats a good question. You know Chris I have no idea. I have seen no signs of human aircrafts or other arieal vehicles. It would be pretty sweet if Bungie added some stuff like that.

no one knows, there is something called the Kestrel, which people think may be in Multiplayer to go against the Banshee, to keep with the whole Spartan vs. Elite thing

in single player no one knows for sure

A VTOL fighter would fit the job perfectly. The M400 Volantor Skycar is an excellent example. It's a currently existing vehicle and you can see it ...here... .

Just outfit the thing you see there with a few weapons and you're all set. The only thing I wouldn not add would be some form of "turret" that a second person uses. A large part of air combat is not being able to fire backwards. Add that and you eliminate half the fun of dogfighting even if it is sensible.

no i dont, sorry, but it has been discussed a lot in here. Its a combination between the pelican and the longsword im pretty sure, but is small, but a little bigger than the banshee


start a thread to ask about it if you want more info....

There is a lot of stuff bungie has it even mentioned like new characters and aliens and weapons and vehicles. So i guess we wont know till Halo 2 comes out which is in [color=red]4 Months and 18 Days[/color].
