I played Halo for the PC a while ago and I didn't like the fact that vehicles respawn back to bases every minute or so, I like it the way it is on the xbox leave em' where they lay. I think GearBox put that in but I hope Bungie doesn't get any ideas for Halo 2.

I think in at least 1 multiplayer stage there should be an armory like in the Maw. how cool was that, sooo many weapons. and they should all respawn every minute or 2. what do you guys think?

i like the armory idea but i dont think they should respawn...some teams would probably just camp there till they all had shotys and rockets

Vehicle respawn is an option in the "Edit Gametype" menue. It can be turned on or off. Same for Halo 2 probably, I hope.
The only vehicle respawn realistic enough for me is if they can be destroyed and are replaced by Pelicans(same with a player's respawn).

-S

Vehicle respawn was an option added with Bungie's blessing. Without it, there were people who were taking vehicles back to where other people couldn't get to them easily, forcing them out of play. Also, if you lost a vehicle in Gephyrophobia, it'd be gone for the rest of the game- what's the fun in that?

The fun would be trying to prevent that from happening!

I think it would be awsome to have an armory but also like in the maw have the worth hog set up. Also you remember the cut sene at the end of silent cartographer with the giant door. I think they they should have those that lead to a hanger with worth hogs and pelican dropships. I hope you can attach worth hogs to to the back of the pellicans. that would be tight.

I think that having and armory in multiplayer would rock. You would be able to take weapons from there as well as from the ground where people have died depending on where you respawn.

That be a sweet idea...Im getting a little off topic here but i have a theory, when halo 2 comes out and you cant fly the pelican which Frankie has already told us, everyone who wanted to fly the pelican will probably find some other vehicle to drive and become obsessed with that... I dont understand why anyone would wanna fly the pelican anyways? it cant shoot so why wouldnt you just take a banshee?

Vehicles should be dropped off by pelicans when they spawn... IT'd look cool IMO...

You haven't seen the new Pelican yet have you? It now has guns. Plus who needs guns when you have a bunch of marines/Spartans hanging out the back covering you as you fly high and above the enemy towards the hostiles?

exactly. A banshee with a few guys in the back can be extremely strong. just imagine if one of them had a rocket launcher or a sniper rifle.
