Subject: Please make covenant vehicles better

how about more versions of viceles like a banshee whit carbines instead of plasma rifles or a anti-air scorpion. they also could make a carbine-gost. and I also would like a rocket warthog.

be creative!

they made them weaker only because plasma weapons are made for killing but more bringing down shields if they brought down shields as fast as they do and were stronger than there would be no use for human weapons everything has a counter attack

Has anyone else noticed that the hand-held Plasma Weapons are just for taking down shields, but Vehicular Plasma Weapons actually kills people?

I agree with you about the Wraith

I agree with you about the Prowler

What I don't right is the Banshee-Hornet comparison. Yes the regular Hornet will abliterate the Banshee. If both pilots and skilled enough the Transport Hornet will just beat a Banshee unless if it takes a hit from the cannon.

But what you have to consider is both vehicles abilities to kill opponents on the ground. A well placed plasma cannon shot near players flowed by a quick swoop and splatter or followed by a barrage of plasma shots will destroy them. A hornet would have much more trouble against a decent team as they would ether find cover or just start hitting it with whatever they had.

What also seems forgotten is the Banshee's ability to fly much faster and boost. If a team gets a missile pod and there is a Hornet in the sky you can kiss it goodbye. A hornet pilot would have to bail out or find a nice big rock to hide behind. A Banshee still stands a chance barrel rolling out of the way or finding that nice big rock much quicker.

If you have a power drain chances are you have a much greater chance hitting a hornet than you do with a banshee.
Stickies go the same.

I agree to an extent.

Covie vehicles are as strong as they'll ever need to be.
Their units are weaker in all cases, but they have more, which is why the humans are losing this war.

The Banshee should have increased manueverability and be able to fly straight upward, straight down, and maybe even fly upside down and fly behind the enemy if you know what I mean, like the banshee's upward flip but it would be able to go behind the enemy (a hornet in this situation imaginably) or just change the Banshee's ability to trick/flip/whatever (up/side+a).
I just really want to fly up real high into the map, and then come crashing down and splatter some guy. That would be so fun. I'm not too bothered about the plasma turrets on the Banshees, its speed makes up for it really.

The Banshee should be slightly faster, but not too much faster to keep gameplay somewhat balanced. The boost is okay or could be slightly faster, but where you don't boost is too slow. It could be made quite a bit faster in an attempt to rebalance the Banshee and Hornet.

I guess all covie vehicles should be a bit faster to balance them with UNSC vehicles.

Just being nitpicky about the barrel roll part.

But I do agree that Covenant vehicles are somewhat inferior in weaponry. But look at it this way: Covenant vehicles don't handle like a fat man on a unicycle (specially the 'Hog and Mongoose).
