How can someone be a one man army in a team based game?

DFA14AkA DrPain goes +47 with the banshee, winning the game pretty much entirely on his own.
Nobody on the other team could get an advantage because they were either spawn killed by the banshee, or spawn killed by someone else. Regardless what side I’m on, this isn’t fun…this isn’t Halo.
What’s the best way to nerf the banshee?
The banshee is very week all u have to do is team shoot it. Even if no 1 else does it will only take u 2-3 spawns to do it on your own
If its nerfed it will become too weak. It needs to be nerfed in offense and buffed in defense at the same time
Quite hard to do when he’s flipping and evading all over the sky, whilst trying to avoid everyone else on his team as well.
Then you’ve obviously got a terrible team thats getting spawn trapped. Take the pain and hope your next search gives u a better team.
Simple change that will go a long way: rockets retain lock on regardless of whether or not the banshee flips.
In Halo 2 a locked on rocket could only be avoided by a skilled pilot, please bring back this necessary skill. It is a very simple easy to implement change that has no direct effect on the vehicle.

I agree that if 343i nerfs to bomb or takes it out that the banshee will need better defense.

i agree on you, i was playing a couple of INHERITORS ( higher ranks are mostly who become vehicle whores or rocket whores) and they use mostly the Banshee and spawn killed me and my team all the time and when i wanted to laser that Banshee or Rocket Lock, another Inheritor comes in a Wraith -_-
just remove the banshee bomb completely and this kind of conversation will cease almost immediately. then it would be people complaining that they need the bombs to get kills or that the banshee is TOO weak -.- well, there are OTHER weapons, and vehicles. lets diversify 
At the very least rockets should retain the lock on.
If they want to go the extra mile then they could prolong the cool down of either the banshee bomb and/or the flips while at the same time making it a little more resistant to DMR fire.
