Subject: Single Banshees Should be Taken Out of Maps

I was playing on Utopie today, BTB. And I kept getting cannon-spammed by a damn banshee! This always freaking happens to me in maps with single banshees. Including some invasion games. This has led me to the conclusion that single banshees on maps should be taken out overall. It's annoying as hell, and whichever team gets it has a HUGE advantage. Instead of focusing on the game, it's more like "Get the banshee first. If not, you're -blam!-." What do you guys think?

And please save the troll comments. Thank-you.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

If you can't get to the banshee nor take it down you deserve to be spawnkilled. Even if you were playing on Renegade or Paradiso, a good team would take your banshee down in a matter of seconds.

get laser or snipe instead, kill banshee. if the other team gets both of those you deserve to die many many banshee related deaths

In that case, my teams always suck. I'm the only one out there in my base DMRing the thing while the rest of my players are out doing god knows what, and/or getting spawnkilled and only getting a couple of shots in.

Well, you have to get some friends then. I can never see myself searching solo.

Only one banshee and you are complaining about getting spawn trapped?

I go solo 95% the time.

And all my friends are playing -blam!- black ops and other -blam!-

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Shooting at it usually helps take it down.

If there is a single banshee then there should be more ways to take it out or more cover from it. That's what I think anyway, I don't think it should be removed altogether

Better run around in circles instead.

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

On Utopie, both teams have an equal run to get the Banshee. It works like a Power Weapon that you want to control, and if your team doesn't have the ability to obtain and keep control of it, you deserve to be killed by it.

Banned just for calling someone retarded? lolBnet mods
Duardo = retard

So you think Reach is an actual Halo game, huh? LOL
Jesus! There's a BoB in ma Falcon!

I think I was the one pwning you with the Banshee, I think.

  • 10.23.2011 7:18 PM PDT

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

Concentrated DMR fire is more than enough to over power a lone Banshee.

Adapt.

I don't need a specialized burger; I stack BKs on my own.

Banshee is easily countered if you have a pair of thumbs. Having problems with the Banshee? Get better. Try to get to it before the other team does. If you can't, you deserve the ensuing spawn-pwnage, especially if you're too inept to organize a teamshoot on the Banshee.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

Invasion?

Yeah sure Tank vs. Banshee makes the banshee WAY overpowered. No way we can kill it with the tank, or the lazor, or the rockets, or the DMRS that are everywhere.

I am starting to get the feeling that if the other team gets the banshee you're up -blam!- creek without a paddle. Saying that you shouldn't lose map control is a lousy argument, so is saying just get a laser or sniper or a rocket launcher. Have you tried aiming when a Banshee is spazing out firing instakill shots? It's like the Scorpion, you know, that vehicle that Bungie took out of Hemorrhage?

No.

Crybabies should be taken out of online games.

You're just a regular Einstein, aren't you?

No, it's not. If you can't kill a vehicle with an anti-vehicle weapon, you're bad. You had your chance to grab the power weapons and have map control yourself. You blew it. That's your fault.

Have you tried aiming when a Banshee is spazing out firing instakill shots?
I have, and it's really not hard. At least, if you have a set of thumbs. Maybe you should stop running out in the open and shooting it with no available cover.

It's like the Scorpion, you know, that vehicle that Bungie took out of Hemorrhage?

The problem wasn't the Scorpion. The problem was the POS blueberry launcher that replaced the rockets (it should have been the Spartan Laser, IMO). Even so, the Scorpions weren't bad if you weren't a retard. Again, teamshoot or use the Sniper Rifle.
