vehicle comparisons
warthog:
- faster then the spectres normal speed

- gunners don't have to lead shots

- more heavier then the spectre so it's less prone to toppling over and better for splattering enemies, can be a disadvantage at times (this point isn't entirely true, just how it is to me when i use it)

- smaller in size

spectre:
- boost function excels the warthogs speed thus improving its performance in splattering/declining its maneuverability, normal speed is slower though

- extra passenger seat for a higher offense

- less heavier then the spectre so it's more maneuverable, can be a disadvantage at times (this point isn't entirely true, just how it is to me when i use it)

- hover movement makes it easier to get on to/move along certain platforms such as debris or snow

Well, I prefer the Spectre but for different reasons than most. For fighting, idk which one I like best.

By the way, the Hog weighs 3.5 tons and the Spectre weighs 9 tons, it's bigger than it seems.

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

I choose the Spectre, the only 4 man land vehicle. It was perfect for CTF and Assault matches. We either go to the enemy base together and win as a team, or we all blow up and die together in one big fiery explosion. Good times, I just wish they kept the vehicle in their other games.

A Halo 2 player never dies, they are just Missing in Action

I thnk Oasis is a pretty cool guy. Eh sings Baetles songs and doesn’t afraid of anything

The hog is great for fighting with but I think the Spectre is better for objective games sometimes because of the extra seat and the speed from the boost. But overall I prefer the warthog

Have you seen my mind anywhere? I seem to have lost it...

I have seen you future

The Spectre is not necessarily better for fighting, but it's just so cool that it gets my vote.

Still using a pump-action shotgun over 500 years in the future I see.

omg not realistic stop game production plz

I go with the Hog, but the Spectre is pretty funny to mess around in and is still probably in my top 3 Halo vehicles.

R.I.P. Halo 2 11/9/04-4/15/10
If you havn't played Halo 2 online than you are missing so much. Plus if you have played a good amount of Halo 2 online, I might have a better chance of listening to anything you say.

spectre because it is so fun to scale walls and get out of the map on containment with it. Also, its turret = beast. and its controls are better than the hog.

specter was good for glitching but it wasn't the best btb vehicle.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

Meh, standard Warthog. The Specter is cool, but not a multiplayer worthy vehicle.

even if both passengers have rocket launchers (though its highly unlikely)

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

The reason why the Spectre is only in Halo 2 and never made a return is beyond me. I loved it because it was the Covenant's version of the warthog and was fun to use (even if it was a Killtacular waiting to happen.)

Does anybody know if the Plasma gun that is on the back of the Spectre is stronger, weaker or just as strong as the Plasma Turrets you can add to multiplayer maps in custom games? I always wondered that...

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Warthog wrecks the Specter any day.

"No Mission Too Difficult, No Sacrifice Too Great—Duty First!" - The fighting first's motto.

Losing internet 9/7/2012 until i don't know when. See you starside folks.


Fada beo Halo 2!
