I think Bungie really needs to fix the Tank problem fo Halo 3

If you don't know what i mean by Tank problem, just look at the HaloCE Scorpion and compare it to the current Tanks

Sure it is better to have the Halo 2 Scorpion in real life, but does it get USED at all? NO.

In halo CE tanks were used all the time because they were FUN, BALANCED, and FAIR

Unlike H2 tanks they are rarely used, undestructible, and just plain CHEAP to use.

Here are MY comparisons.

Halo CE Scorpion:
1-3 frags to kill the Scorpion
1-2 plasmas to kill the Scorpion
1-2 sniper shots to kill the Scorpion
Almost full clip with any gun to kill the Scorpion
1 Rocket to kill the Scorpion
Even the warthogs could kill the Scorpion
Ghosts could also kill the Scorpion

Halo 2 Tanks:
Atleast 5 frags/plasmas to kill the Tanks
Driver UNKILLABLE with any gun
2 rockets to kill the Tanks
Snipers can't kill them
Any type of Warthog takes several shots to kill them
Ghosts need to be very close and very manuverable to kill them.

The only thing that should be into the tanks is ther ability to beat down driver and throw frags inside, (in my opinion)

Somebody back me on this idea,... anybody!

* * Bungie please do something about those Tanks before Halo 3 come out.

Actually I listened to the audio and he said something about the body rewarding social interaction because is was necessary to survive... well so was the appendix, and now all the appendix does is explode and kill you.

It is a blurred line that lies at the edge of Godhood and Insanity. Guess which side of it I am on.


The real enemy in Gears of War.

The legend of Croatoan

Actually in Halo CE the tanks were very UNbalanced

They had to make it stronger because they added boarding.

What kind of modern tank has an exposed driver...the halo CE tank had one...even for a game it was unrealistic.

Indestructable? Okay, there are destructable vehicles in Halo 2. It's tougher to kill anyone in any vehicle in Halo 2,because the vehicle takes the brunt of the damage. I dont know what you're smokin.

I think you need to consider less about just your opinion and ask for other peoples opinions before going and telling Bungie what to do... Just a thought...

edit: at least you said "please" though.
