Sorry I had to make a Poll on this because I was interested to know how many people actually LIKE the spectre.

One shot: one kill, zero seconds to live

it did carry more people than the warthog and had a boost function. overall its an OK vehicle, pretty good for MP too.

The thing is entirely pointless,

Compared to the Warthog Turrent it sucks and I think the only reason they even added it so they could have a covenant oppisote of the warthog

My review of the Spectre:

Speed: Average
Boost: Average
Carrying Capacity: Excellent
Accuracy (Turret): Excellent
Damage (Turret): Medium/Low
Versus Vehicles:
* Scorpion: Poor
* Wraith: Poor
* Warthog: Average
* Gauss Warthog: Bad
* Banshee: Average
* Ghost: Very Good
Versus Infantry: Good
Versus Sentinels:
* Regular: Excellent
* Shielded: Excellent
* Major: Good
Armor: Good
Ocupant Protection:
* Driver: Front: Poor, Sides: Good, Rear: Excellent
* Passengers: Front: Good, Rear: Good, Side: Average, Opposing side: Excellent
* Gunner: Front: Very Good, Rear: Average, Sides: Good

It's an alright vehicle, but the turret could use some more punch.

Well, let's look at it the old fashioned way:

Pros:
1.It holds four people, something a certain human type vehicle does not
2.It's ability to run people over far exceeds even the ghost, due to its mass and size being larger
3.The turret can fire even if you're in boost, which is effective and cannot be simulated by the Banshee, Ghost, or Wraith
4.Takes down shields quickly
5.Has a good level of maneuverability, like all Covenant land vehicles

Cons:
1.People in the sides are 100% revealed, unlike the human formation which hides the passengers
2.The vehicle is overall very slow, and is only faster than the tanks
3.While the turret takes shields down, it takes almost twice as long to kill an unshielded foe once that has happened


Five good things, three bad things. Looks like it's still a good vehicle.

It's ok but it would get owned by a warthog.

  • 06.18.2006 8:33 AM PDT

if it was just faster or had a better gun (but not both) it would be good

it had promise, but was just not fine tuned enough

It's a good idea, but really does need a more powerful gun.
