Subject: Halo needs ARTILLERY

I know that many people will say that the tank would just beat it any day of the week BUT, but but but it would be fun to actually take out infantry or light enemy vehicles from a far and make huge holes in the ground. Tell me what you think about it?

Halo is not battlefield, go play battlefield if you want large scale battles as opposed to small team gameplay.

They call me Mister Nuke. You, my fine acquaintance, may call me Mister Nuke. Welcome to the wonderful dystopia that is my user page. If you're here about something I may have done to upset you, do not waste your precious time sending me a message. I will not reply. There is a good chance it was not really upsetting and that you are angry over nothing. If it was a "big deal," then well, my bad.

The Scorpian functions as such. It's more a multi-purpose vehicle then one of the above. Therefore, Halo already has artillary.

Target locator?

This'll sound like I'm just trying to make excuses but what about the mongoose. It has no mounted gun hell it doesn't have a gun at all but it is useful on the battlefield for taking infantry around it.

That's a MAC. But I guess that works... But he means a vehicle. Which would be the Scorpian.

target locaters aren't online so....

I don't see how artillery can relate to a mongoose. It's way to small to mount an artillery piece to it.

Yeah, it would be cool, but it would have to be a huge battlefield, modern artillery has an effective range of up to 15 miles, so for it to be realistic, or for there not to be another 'modern day howitzer vs Halo howitzer' thread, and everyone saying how the modern day artillery is superior, MP maps would have to ridiculously huge. I could possibly see it in campaign though, but it's doubtful with the way Halo 4 looks.

  • 08.15.2011 8:37 AM PDT

I mean it is just an idea so. It would be cool but it will never be. :( :( :(

Therefore, this thread is pointless, really. I'm out. Peace bro.

This is the problem with Halo: people refuse to accept any changes what so ever.

  • 08.15.2011 8:42 AM PDT

Why you are so nice :) (sarcasm if your stupid) :)

  • 08.15.2011 8:43 AM PDT

See you get where I'm talkin from.

Death to rank junkies.

A stationary mortar launcher on top of each base in multiplayer would be pretty cool. It could swivel around to hit multiple areas, like a turret.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Actually, common artillery almost dosent exist in Halo. The art that I know of comes in the form of orbital bombardment or from orbital assets.

Hello! You may also know me as Ijnekono. How you have made your way here I do not know, but welcome. (:

Imagine a mongoose with dual scorpion cannons. BOOM sends you flying off the map.

Really, any changes? We've accepted dual wielding, equipment, AA, new vehicles, and the like. You know why? Because they supported the core premise of halo, small squad gameplay.

What I mean is you have the Warthog which is better than the mongoose so why don't you always use warthogs. Too much money so a mongoose just substitutes the warthog. Same with a tank and artillery.

The UNSC kinda has MACs, which eliminate the need for artillery. It's way more accurate and cause ten times the damage.

See you on the battlefield.

Halo already has a laser designator which calls in an orbital bombardment, is that not good enough for you? Of course, it only shows up in campaign and firefight.

And the Wraith can already be used as a mobile artillery platform in multiplayer, so there.

I'm just saying though they are very effective money and materials still come into contact with them because artillery ammo would be less the amount to make and if the ship firing the mac is disabled or destroyed by the enemy then your stuffed.

No, you still have alot of other stuff you could use: Scorpians, for example. Gauss hogs, Normal Warthogs, assuming this is near the middle of the war, a Spartan?
