Subject: The wraith is superior to the scorpion


Posted by: SimpleStrike112
It's less accurate
It glitches more often than the Scorpion
You're more likely to crash off of a cliff with it
How come only the aliens get to use the turrets? (Not the Arbiter)
The Scorpion doesn't suffer from lack of turret use
The Wraith is more vulnerable to destruction
The Wraith allows for your own men to easily get killed even when you are on board
The Wraith can't drive over any obstacles including the first underground half-open gate in Metropolis once you enter the tunnel, but the Scorpion can
The Wraith can kill you even AFTER it has been destroyed because of its equally fatal second explosion

I do not support the Wraith.
I think the turrets are automatic and it doesn't work for allies because you have to be an enemy to get shot at. Yup, we should be able to fire them but if the Scorpion had that feature the Flood could not use it against any ally.

I choose the Wraith if I want to travel a little faster and if I want to get off level, it will get up slopes that the Scorpion can't.

I choose the Scorpion if accurate firepower is called for and it is tougher than the Wraith so going a little slower is not a bad thing..

Agreed.

Depends on encounter.

Sounds like you've been playing Metropolis. As for Uprising, that's scripting. The Elites don't know the meaning of follow the leader.

We'll see about that. The Wraith has good traction. All it needs is a decent makeshift ramp.

Exaggeration. I don't recall it being that bad. Also, there should be plenty of time to escape.

So Scorpion beats everything?

1. Compensated by faster fire speed
2. Never had glitches wraiths personally
3.. Never crashed off a cliff
4. Probably because if you could use the turrets the wraith would be TOO much better than the scorpion
5. But you can't we it, only a marine
6. I find driving around in an almost invincible, slow, trundling vehicle very dull
7. I don't really understand what tou're saying here
8. Never been killed by it
