"…especially since we've removed Banshee from CTF and Assault games on Ascension and Headlong. Why? Because griefers will surf the bomb to unreachable places anyway, just to be jackasses. "
This is a biiiiiig no no! Yes, people can be -blam!-s with it... But several of my friends and I love the Banshee... One of our favorate things to do is play CTF, Assault, and Team Slayer on the big maps... And more often than not, the Banshee plays a big part in it... Taking out the Banshee will seriously add another 'today we feel like sucking a -blam!-' item on the grand ol' list of tweeks and changes that I dont like...
Ya, its your game and you can do whatever the hell you want... I've kept my mouth shut on most issues, but X-ing the Banshee is by far the worst thing you've done to me. It was what I looked foreward too most about Halo PC, it was what I enjoyed relearning the most about Halo 2, and it is instraments of destruction to fight with/against...
Taking this out is just as odd and wrong as if you suddenly removed all sniper rifles and rocket launchers from the game claming that people where 'being -blam!-s with them'...
Ya, I dont play assention that much, but I do play Headlong all the time on the matchmaking and such... And taking the banshee away is just... its just WRONG!
This is... *sigh* I just feal (once again) betrayed by Bungie... Every time I learn to love some aspect of the game, it is raped, pillaged, and burned by Bungie...
And personally... I have not once seen anyone try to surf the Objective away on a Banshee... first off, its hard... secondly... I shoot them the -blam!- down... Besides... if people wana be -blam!- like that, just add another feedback option right under cheating... "This guy is being an -blam!-!" damn you! give me back my Banshee!
Nice post! I also love the Banshee, especially in Headlong. I've played a lot of assault and CTF, but haven't seen anyone use it to hide the bomb. I hate cheaters and would rather lose than play with cheaters, so I'm not going to complain too much about any updates that lessen cheating, but I'll definately miss the Banshee.
