Halo CE Banshee

I liked Halo 3's Banshee because I haven't gotten in a Banshee in CE yet, I would like to though. And the Reach Banshee is too OP for me to like it.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Reach. It's just too much fun to fly.

Halo 3 because there was some actual skill to getting a kill. In Reach it's just bomb, then flip, bomb then flip, bomb, then flip.


There's nothing else in Halo Reach that annoys me more than someone who knows how to exploit the Banshee lmao. I feel like rage-quitting every time >:(


Best part is. People think they're pro getting kills like that. "Oh its your fault for not getting the banshee first. Its your fault for not getting to the power weapons while I am camping around you base killing everything that moves."
Its funny because 90% of people who fly the banshee dont know how to do it properly. Alot of people succeed in it because the splash damage is the same of a full on rocket. So you just land the bomb within 6 feet of the guy, your gonna kill em. I lol hard at the kids who go all out for the banshee just to get 3 kills with it or get skyjacked.

Hi.

Reach's maneuvering and Halo 3's damage, blast radius, and aesthetics.

It's a shame that you can't have a banshee with good maneuvering, reasonable plasma cannon damage, and non-nuclear-bomb blast radius for the banshee bomb all at the same time.

In Halo 3 is actually took skill to use a banshee, it wasn't bomb, flip, bomb, flip, bomb, flip, you actually had to use your plasma cannons and your bombs correctly. there is nothing that can effectively kill the Banshee because if you use a vehicle it just homing bombs you, and there are no infantry weapons besides the splaser(which isn't in MM enough) that can kill a banshee.

Exactly, spawning with the DMR doesn't really help either, I can only land like one shot in ten, which I doubt is lack of skill. If someone was really in that banshee constantly spinning there would be no way they can stay under control and aim well, just saying lol.


Calm your tits, ladies. No one said being a Banshee pilot makes one a pro. It's just something on the map that is important to control.

Have you played Halo CE... the Banshees in that game were much faster than the one's now. Except it doesn't have boost.

Oh and Halo Custom Edition Banshee. That thing has bombs!

Halo 3, was the most balanced in my opinion. Took a while to kill others, but took awhile to get blown up. Halo 2's was a little bit weaker kill and stronger armor, halo ce's was a little clunky to fly, and reach's is little armor but super fast kills.

Yes, i've played CE, and no they really aren't that fast IMO. The Reach Banshee can easily outrun it.

Because of boost... no way can the Reach banshee outrun the CE banshee without boost.

lol it's no surprise Reach is winning since the banshee is easier to get kills in.

I'm wondering if it would have as many votes if the banshee bomb's explosion didn't have a 20 mile radius.

I'd probably still vote for it due to its slick maneuvering.

Anyone who claims the AR takes skill ought to shoot himself in the head. Preferably with the AR because they'll most likely miss with any other weapon.

For me it's actually the Reach Banshee; I really like the way the flips and bomb work on this one (accelerating bombs with fast flips and switching between cannons and bombs) and feel that with some minor rebalancing it could work nicely for Halo 4.

Halo 2:... no bomb in MP

Well...mostly true.

Mine would probably be the Reach one, other than the broken flip mechanic allowing for bombs at certain times during said flipping, when it obviously tries to stop you from shooting at all other points of the flip.
