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

Anybody remember the Banshee on Ascension in Halo 2? Ugh!

Halo without Bungie is like a cookie made without love.

Its worst when one team gets the hold of two banshees.

  • 10.23.2011 8:36 PM PDT

I search solo 99.99% of the time I play, I just go into squad slayer more to avoid vehicles. Every now and then you get put on the team that can actually do something about them.

Inb4 Tank 1v1 on Swords Base.

Man up.
Banshees dies in:
- 1 Laser
- 5 Sniper rounds
- 44 DMR rounds approximately
- 444 NR rounds if you're retarded
- Alternatively disable it and jack it
If you can't use one of these methods successfully quit and start playing COD.

Remember those locked on rockets and slow flipping banshees in Halo 2 as well.

The only time the banshee is overpowered is in elite slayer games. Other than that, the banshee's fine.

Or when you're playing against thumbless retards, then everything is overpowered.

I did.
He says he plays solo.
Guess what, so do I and I don't end up being spawn killed by a banshee.

Not really, due to the fact that at about the 20-0 mark in a typical Elite Slayer game on Utopie their entire team resorts to Jetpacking with charged Plasma Pistols.

Assuming the majority of their team haven't dashboarded, avoiding 8 people jetpacking with PPs becomes painstakingly difficult for prolonged periods of time. Try it.

Pff... There are laser and sniper and turrets on the map and if you can't take a banshee down with those things something must have gone terribly wrong.

And also about your logic of taking single banshee maps out... it fails. Even when I play with one friend on Paradiso or Renegade we can use teamwork to get both banshees easily. We do it like this on Renegade: I grab the banshee and take the attention of the enemy banshee and try to destroy it. Meanwhile my friend is going for the spartan laser with a revenant and usually gets the splazor. If I haven't killed the banshee yet, my friend will laser it. Then I just spawn kill the enemies for three minutes while my friend is sniping or revenant splattering and when the enemy banshee spawns. My friend comes to grab it while I prevent enemies getting it. In one game I got unfrig and my friend go incomceivable thanks to our teamwork. So yeah, more dual banshee maps for me. I love the destruction we make together with my friend in Renegade and Paradiso especially.

Im great in the banshee, and I can tell you that its very hard staying alive more than a killing frenzy if the other team isnt stupid. Snipers/rockets/lasers/falcon turrets/warthog turrets/plasma pistols/jetpackers/grenade launchers/armor lock/scorpion all give banshee drivers a hard time.

  • 10.24.2011 5:55 AM PDT

In my opinion that is when the Banshee is most deffinately not overpowered for the biggest most obvious reason ever...
More plasma pistols available.
I mean ...come on.
Plasma pistol is like almost every classes secondary weapon in Elite Slayer games.

Just EMP blast the derp out of it then do what ever you see fit, take its immobility to your advantage.
Stick it, Shoot it, Covenant Rocket Launcher .... Sky Jack!

I agree.The last time I played that map I was spawn camped repeatedly by a sniper,2 ghosts,1 banshee,a rocket dude,and 3 guys with AR's.

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.

That's like saying "if you can't block a DoS attack, you deserve to be flooded", lol. In which case...

  • 11.08.2011 7:07 PM PDT

look at Halo 2's "Ascension" And Halo: Reach's "Pinnacle"

Ascension had one banshee on the landing pad corner of the map.

Pinnacle currently has no banshee. We could all assume it could be because of how overpowered the banshee is. (disregarding anti-vehicle weapon load-outs"

Why is hypocrite spelled with an E at the end?
The I in crite is not pronounce as eye.

So, on the one hand I spell it out exactly as it should be.
You follow the standard set before you by fools who can't even get a handle on the rules of their own language.

It's not hard killing a banshee. I don't understand why people refuse to just look up and shoot the damn thing.

Just because it went over your head doesn't make it a poor analogy.

And congrats on your reading skills...
