The halo 2 scarab was amazing the first time I saw it crawl all over the city. But then came out the newer scarab that the brutes used. And instead of Elites piloting the vehicle, Hunters are this time. The new scarab has much fire power, but does not have that imencity the scarab in halo 2 did. I personaly think the halo 3 scarab sucked compared to the other

I really hope they put the halo 2 scarab in reach. It would look more intence in huge battles.


Ps: sorry about the "or" in the poll, and also please don't mind spelling.

Well, the brute scarabs are the proper scarabs. The H2 was a mining scarab sent down to run a muck around the city. I'd like to see some mining scarabs again.

So you prefer scripted things? Thats weird. I'd rather see something like the Halo 3 scarab but with a larger interior and better defense, maybe a hunter pair onboard.

Yeah, Even though the Mining scarab was more immense, the Halo 3 scarab moves quicker and was able to be launched from a cruiser or jump from atop a building. It also looks more badass, but of course that's just my opinion.

h2`s scarab is totally different from h3`s
h2`s was part of the map and h`3 is a real enemy with own AI

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

The big difference was that the Halo 2 scarab actually FELT powerful when you watched it shoot. It looked like the beam was DEVASTATING. In Halo 3 the beam is a -blam!- slow moving green thing that can't even kill you unless the WHOLE THING hits you. It's no stronger than a Hunter now.

Bring back the FEAR I felt when I saw that thing open fire on the tank.

Don't take me seriously. Ever. Except now. Now you can take me seriously on this statement. But other than that, don't. Just don't. Ever.
