a bit like this?

Please check your spelling more often. Get firefox, theres a dictionary feature, and it helps me a lot. Also, Your idea is nice but un-original and would be difficult to use.

There is nothing wrong with Halo:Reach. We all just have our gripes about everything we don't like. Not liking something doesn't make it broken.

No thanks. This sounds absolutely pointless and horribly easy to abuse.

"HEY GUYS!!! I GOT RAWKET LAWN CHAIR AND AM ON SURFBOARD!!! LOLOLOL"

Just no. I can respect the idea of wanting more fun vehicles, but this doesn't even fit in the Halo universe.

They didn't have floating cars, so how could they have a floating board powerful enough to support a Spartan's weight?

No thanks. It still would be easy to abuse. Absolutely unusable in Matchmaking and it would be stupid of any self respecting Forger to use such a broken vehicle.

It would be like adding a Scorpion to an Infection map. The zombie are one-shot-killed and they can't hijack. Broken.

Please note I am approaching your opinion on the basis that you intend this vehicle to allow you to maneuver as a Banshee while firing your weapon freely, if that is indeed your case it is completely terrible in and of itself.

No, It will not be a abuse.
If this vehicle would exsist when you get crash with a wall or something you will die, not like other vehicule.

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

Please spell check, or flamers will come.

Yes, it would be abused. If I were using it, I would grab a Sniper, A Laser or a Rocket and hop in, fly as high as possible and rain on people. In open maps I would even be able to actively spawn camp enemies.

If it were to work like a banshee it would be extremely simple to avoid walls and in any map were airborne vehicles are utilized there would be few places to kill yourself.

Giving it small drawbacks like dying on a crash is hardly making it fair, it just makes you die faster.

It doesn't take longer then a few seconds and takes no more then a good sniper to abuse this vehicle. It would become a very unfair advantage fast as players learned to use it well.

How about upgrading vehicle
an example would be like The Scorpion upgraded to Grizzly
if not i want a UNSC Mech like the Cyclops

Meh...I'm not too into that.

How would you propose upgrades would work? Sounds closer to an imbalance than a workable idea.

Too many things look cool on paper or in our heads, but when they would be put to the test they become overpowered or unfair.

No because it will not be a stop vehicle like the hornet, it will be more like the banshee, you cannot stop the banshee.

Well you are right if that's was for Matchmaking area but in campaign i would like to see the upgrade or at least the up-grated vehicle for you to use.

but for Matchmaking ill still like to see Mechs in the game, like i said before,UNSC the Cyclops and for the Covenant the Locust.

I find hover boards like this to be extremely cheesy. I like my Halo to be lettuce only.

Sorry, don't like. Even the Banshee can be abused, and to me, it's to cheap to be in Halo

  • 11.09.2009 2:50 PM PDT

Damn you 353 guilty spark! You killed the greatest stereotypical african american gun toting sergeant ever to tread upon a fictional futuristic setting!

I'm not really feeling this idea. If anything I think bungie should implement that transport warthog. The one with the four seats, and maybe see an entire campaign level that revolves around the elephant.

A god who creates tools is still a god. It is not for us to impose qualifications upon the divine or presume to guess its intentions.

that just flat out isnt halo's style, sorry bro, but no.
