Also for the tank bigger is not neccessarily better. It depends on how it works. The best thing for the tank would be a piercing round into the wraith a really strong piercing round.

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

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

In the novels, the Scorpions main cannon is more than enough to gut a Wraith.

You're talking about gameplay factors, in which gameplay =/= real life.

You know why? Cause they look cool and are fun to play. Its a game, not a documentary.

Oh, and you know, when they 'Just added some more armor" to the Humvee, they had to basically rebuild the entire thing :P.


Exactly.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Does it really matter?

In 500 years, humanity managed faster-than-light travel and colonised numerous planets.

In the same 500 years from the renaissance to date, we went from horse powered carriages to cars.

I'm pretty sure we were busy doing RnD on stuff not related to war.

Well, the colonization period is marked by little to no conflict at all (no wars). So military tech/weapons were unneeded.

They didn't start focusing on military tech until the Insurrection. If it wasn't for the Insurrection, their wouldn't have been Spartans or an adequate UNSC military, when we made contact with the Covenant. They would've been completely unopposed and humanity would've most likely been wiped out.

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

omg not realistic stop game production plz

The Warthog is identical to the AK-47 in its legacy.

It could be more effective, have more powerful armament etc.

But you know what? Like the AK-47, the Warthog is (likely) cheap as hell to build. Cheap = mass produce, equals able to equip your entire armed forces across the galaxy. Not only this but again, like the AK, the Warthog is sturdy, reliable and proven to be pretty devastating to enemy infantry/light vehicles with either a chain gun or gauss cannon.

Why replace something that is doing its job pretty well at a bargain price?

The Warthog is what it is.

It's not a tank.

It's not an LAV.

It's not even supposed to see front line combat.


It's a Light Recon Vehicle, it's pretty much a Jeep or a Humvee. It's to drive people around in the base, to go and see what's going on over that next ridge when com sats are down. It's not to go in guns a blazin' it's essentially a truck.

In order to be better at anyone of those things, it'd have to be worse at others. It's a multi role vehicle, not the best at anything.

I wish people would understand that.

I am a Halo Pro. I am in a group called the Ninja Academy. It is a very good group and if you are reading this, you should join.

I agree. Over the course of the war, the technology barley improved at all.
