and jacking isn't possible unless the pilot makes a silly mistake....

I just ment that when someone uses a grenade launcher it sets off an emp blast which renders vehicles useless for 5 seconds, and in that time someone can easily skyjack.

Your resident explosives and heavy ordinance expert, at your service.

Increase damage resistance and decrease weapon damage/bomb blast radius.

That's all you'd need.

Not that I play this game anymore, but the banshee is a glass cannon, you've said this yourself. Focus it with some team fire and it dies pretty damn fast.

You know what else is retarded? Having to quote other user's posts because you can't think of anything new yourself :)

OT: Banshee needs it's flip to be tied to it's bomb use and boost. That way if a Banshee fires it's bomb, or flips, it loses it's flip or bomb ability until it's recharged it's boost meter fully.
That would make the Banshee okay in my mind.

before you criticise compare to halo 3 plasma ornament is effective while the fuel rod is anti vehicle comparrison to reach banshee bomb is direct damage with a better kill radius than a rocket just about

If you never give up, you never lose.

the banshee has always been overpowered. I really like the idea of nerfing the backflip, I haven't thought of that myself... this along with a slight blast radius decrease of the bomb would nerf it sufficiently. It will still be your tool of mass murder, don't worry banshee noobs.

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

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

Control the Banshee like a power weapon. Know it's spawn time, uses, how to take it out, and how to keep it in the air when it's a teammates (or your own). Don't allow the other team control of it if you don't want to die by it. Learn to Team-DMR the thing while it's in the air, and the paper shields render it useless. I've had this happen multiple times, while I've only got a handful of kills with it, then got taken out of the air by a team of 5+ DMRs shooting at me.

No. I think that the Banshee is just fine. Only on Spire am I a regular Banshee who.re, but that is not why I disagree with a nerf.

I very rarely get spawn killed by a Banshee or even anhilated by one, and that it because I do not allow it to happen. People either need to learn how to team DMR it, or just simply snipe it out of the sky.

  • 11.13.2011 7:16 AM PDT

Few guys can gun down the banshee in under 10 secs with dmr... Even faster with laser or rocket.

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.

lmfao @ kids who want a nerf.

You only want it because you're getting destroyed by it.

If you can read this, that means I'm not a Shaolin monk...

yet.

Sorry OP, but this forum (and the reach community) is filled to the brim with witless individuals whose only response to constructive criticism is "loladapt".

OT: ALl of the above. The banshee is an overpowered killing machine, although it is a time bomb.

You're right, it had two plasma canons of death that rendered anything on the map dead, because there was no recharge time. Do you want to go back to that?Posted by: jimbobalation

Banshees are multiplayer vehicles too.
