i'll use it. in a banshee, you can easily do up to 360 deegree turns. should be easy to shake off rockets. add the3 ability to swoop down on someone and tap them for an instant kill, the boost, and dual plasma cannons, and the banshee is the weapon of choice.

If I remember rightly, didnt this new information say that Banshees could perform loops and barrel rolls, if thats the case then it'll be easy to shake off rocket locks!
Also you wont be able to "tap" people and kill them in vehicles, if your not going at a decent speed you will just knock some of their shields off!

no banshees r really fun, flying around doing 360s and other stuff its funner than a worthog IMO. there not only for noobs cause what if u really need them to get somewere u can take out a few people on ur way there. and wouldnt it be sick if ur team gets control of all the banshees, start attacking in a V formation.

Look knowing bungie that tracking is not 100% cause the whole balance thing. You can probably shake a rocket with some quick manuevers.

If there's a banshee near me, i'm usin it :D. Plus, I think it'll be very easy to lose a rocket.

If the rumors are true, banshees will be able to do a lot of tricks in the air. I was a hell of a pilot in mp, and I'll be a hell of a pilot then too.

yeah and i doubt rockets have a large turn radius...


you're poll asked if i would use banshees a lot....so i said no. if i'm near one then i'll hop in but i'm not goin to wait at its spawn point or anything....now that it has boost and strafe capabilities its gonna be awesome so i'll deffinately use it.

best I got was 120 kills and 3 flags. (full 16 game) I used the banshee to kill the 2 tanks the enemy had (in bg) both fired at me, and I just let off the joystick, and I started to fall, and dodged their attacks. I managed to take both tanks back (which were camping at their base) and steal their flag 3 times, all thanks to the banshee (and the ghost... heh heh) The kills were with me and my handy dandy shotgun in their base. Oh how I love close range combat!

If a rocket is really close and to late to turn, then i'll hit the emergency brake.
