did they take out the fuel rod cannon for the banshee cuz if u look at screenshots page 3 pic 8 the banshee has the same stream that a ghost has when it uses speed burst...and if u look at screenshots page 3 pic 2 the banshee has normal streams

Why would that mean the FRC isn't there?

yup, the banshee has a boost feature instead of the FRG attached to it. they, as in everybody, has said that the left trigger is boost in the ghost and the banshee.

so byebye frg on the banshee. this also makes the banshee more balanced as a vehicle. i like the idea. and boost kicks ass.

^ yeah there called seraphs, i think?

Anyway on topic, after reading your post i realised that fuel rod probably has gone from banshee, at first i was a bit gutted. But now after thinking about it for a bit (10 minutes) ive decided i like the idea because of two things.

1. Maybe once your in the banshee you have to change weapon to get the fueld rod gun ready, if you get what i mean. The fuel rod is still there but you have to select it first using 'Y'
I hope this is what bungie has done, but if not there is always option 2

2. If the fuel rod has gone then the banshee must have better plasma cannons than the ones on halo 2. So even without FRG im still happy.
