As mentioned in the update there will be vehicle(s?) that will dwarf the cyclops seen in warhouse.343 have proven to be good at looking at what people use in the games and building on that. I know a lot of people have been looking for elephants making a return. I think this is possible but i think that Frankie was probably hinting at a similar vehicle. With 343 looking at past halo games and at what people did, they are probably aware of the tons of flying elephant maps. I think this would be a logical step for the series. What do you think?
(cba reading it back so it won’t make sense)
tl:dr Flying elephants are a possibility.
… is a term that is almost certainly exaggerated.
I have a feeling that when the game is released, this vehicle that ‘dwarves’ the cyclops will be a disappointment.
Bungie had a Forerunner Tank in Halo 2 that was supposed to have some MAJOR firepower, maybe 343 picked it up?
lol Flying Elephants…

ok pessimisim cool
Could be a War Sphinx or something like the Scarab. 343 is on record saying they want to seamlessly blend ground, air and space combat so large vehicles are probably standard. Either way, I’m pumped.

No, it was a LEVEL, that was essentially a giant platform.
I personally thought that he meant Dwarfed as in fire power, not so much physical size (though they likely go hand in hand).

i personally think the dwarfed weapon/vehicle will be the original Cyclops
this was a question regarding the cyclops 2 in that one map, people asked if you could use that, and 343 said that they have “vehicle surprises” and a vehicle to dwarf the cyclops 2, not the original cyclops…

That’s what I thought a while ago, War Sphinx. I never really considered the scarab. It will be interesting to see just how they would balance something like a scarab or even the Sphinx.
Hopefully it’s something the tank, wraith, hornet and banshee will fear.

What? Well after looking it up, the level would’ve been named “Forerunner Tank”.
After watching the trailer again I would have to say that the cyclops looks bigger then the elephant so it’s probably a new vehicle or it could be a scarab or frigate.
I hope we see a Vulture in the game, those things are about the only cool thing that came out of Halo Wars, vehicle wise.

I’m confused, what do we mean by “dwarfing” a cyclops?
