And yeah, Opey could probably win that game without using his BR. Best SMG user in Halo.

I was reading the long awaited update, and I read that they were getting a huge new vehicle up and running. Wonder what it could be?

"Qoute"Biggest thing this week has been getting a huge new vehicle up and running. I was pretty worried about some animation issues, but Eamon stepped up and made some code changes that help mitigate that. Today and over the course of the weekend, the related encounters will finally begin to take on a final form."Qoute"

remember, huge doesnt always mean big. It could mean this was a big project that took months and months to finish

Sorry to go off topic, but those guys at penny-arcade are -blam!-S! i was reading some of the replys and they were calling Frankie names and dissing B.net. I really pissed me off.

Anyways, back on topic...

I really hope they include a human answer to the banshee...

First i saw huge and i thought scorpion but then i saw new and thought maybe huge meant it took a long time to finish. So im thinkin they might be talking about the shadow. Im not sure about the name i dont remeber but its the covie vehicle just like the warthog. Two seats, a gunner, and a driver.

It could be the shadow but i'd like to see a ground vehicle with a huge turret capable of taking out a banshee

umm guys, shadow has already been mentioned, its not the shadow. ask frankie yourself guys.

P.S. check out my boat thread for some speculation and a few quotes from the update to "sort of" back my idea. plus ideas are greatly appreciated even if negative(as long as it has a reason for being negative)

some kind of a human equivalent of the banshee would be awesome...like a miniturized harrier...ex. it can hover and go in any direction but only holds one and has only a chain gun or something on the front...either that or rockets...

Maybe it's a giant hippo that MC will be able to mount and crush anything in his way with it.
Proberbly not but it would still be cool.

My real bet would be that it is some kind of tank. Huge=Tank. Right? Or a giant hippo.

huge might not mean the vehicle is huge..it might mean its a hugely innovative vehicle that is entirely different from what they have shown so far....it sounds like its been in deveolpment for a while now so that might be the "huge" part...(as in it took a huge amount of time to make it work properly)

replying to johhny joe havent heard of a tank but their should be on because earth sent ships out to distract the covenant with all this weaponry like tanks warthogs pelicans etc see if earth sent that to the ships if in halo 2 you fight in earth why wouldnt their be a tank but not 2 diss the halo gods but it would be real stupid not to put a tank in the game because earth sent that to the ships and now you fight in earth so their should be tanks whew that was long
