Anyone else notice this about Stinger?

Not to get any hype started but according to the helmet description it’s a helmet designed for both ground and aerial combat and mentions a VTOL that has yet to be talked about, could a human aerial vehicle be finally coming to Halo 5 in the update after this?
343 did say they had to polish some things in the Hog Wild update; who knows.

Yeah, but the ship that it was designed around isn’t a falcon or hornet.

Dont get your hopes up, Please

Prepare to be disappointed. :stuck_out_tongue:

Isn’t VTOL the other name for the Phaeton?

No. The Hornet, Falcon, Sparrowhawk, Kestrel, Vampire, Vulture, and Phaeton are all halo VTOLs. VTOL stands for Vertical Take Off and Landing.

Thats reading deep. LOL

Don’t get your hopes up. 343 is known for disappointing and making people mad. Playable elites and false falcon hype because of the ONI cover are a couple examples.

And so is:
Air Assault
Orbital
EVA
Strider
(Can’t remember any more off the top of my head, but there’s plenty more helmets that share the same purpuse)

Yeh

The descriptions on stuff means absolutely nothing in terms of what you can do in game. It’s just background lore filler content.

Others have said it, I will too, don’t get your hopes up. I was sorta hoping for race mode and a few more hogs than one new and three tweaked ones, but hey they’re free updates and 343i really doesn’t owe us anything. At least WZ firefight comes out next time.

I’m pretty sure none of descriptions of those sets mention specific vehicles. Why would they make an entirely new vehicle just for the description of an armour set? Plus, 343 already confirmed that a UNSC air vehicle would be added to the game.

Not really. In the description it literally says that it’s created for the Type-49 Attack VTOL, and we already know that human air vehicles are returning at some point. It’s not THAT far-fetched to imagine that it’s a hint to the future.

That being said, it could be anything from a new model of the Hornet to something completely new.

The descriptions don’t mean much, they are just little bits of background. Don’t get your hopes up for this update. But, they have said they are working/hoping to bring in a UNSC air vehicle, so maybe it will be here for the Warzone FF

I suggest not reading anything in to it. It’s always better to be pleasantly surprised.

well, if i recall correctly, and let me find the sources.
the needler warthog idea has been around for quite some time as well. so yeah the possibility is there

Original concept
it was also mentioned in an earlier cannon fodder

too lazy to find more references

343 aren’t going to add any completely new vehicle models to the game. They’ve made it quite clear that reqs ands updates are built off existing models and content in the game. Which makes sense to be honest.

Now that is some great speculation!

You’re not the first to speculate this, I’ve seen a couple other threads about the stinger talking about some kind of vehicle.

What about the Gravity Hammer? Halo 2 BR? Brute Plasma Rifle? Those are all new weapons that aren’t built off of existing models. If they can do it for weapons, they can do it for vehicles too.
