I for one would much rather have the hornet as they look so much more futuristic than falcons and overall cooler, also they ACTUALLY HAVE WORKING GUNS!, but if we have to have the falcon at least make them look cooler, not like wooden helicopters.

Proof of Falcons in Halo 4, if not already confirmed by 343 
EDIT: Sorry for any mistakes, im on an iphone
Why do they still have propellers? Keep the Falcon if you must but at least change its propulsion system. Make it similar to the Hornets propulsion system.

IKR, at least make them hover and not be held up by freaking air, its like 50 years in the future and they still have propellers wtf!

The Hornet would be redundant.

Not sure if you were referring to from now to Halo 4 or from Reach to Halo 4. From now to Halo 4 would be about 545 years in the future, from Reach(2552) to Halo 4(2557) is about 5 years.

Yeah, I mean from 2012
They already said the weapon sandbox is going to be bigger than ever. I’d assume their will also be a ton of vehicles.
I agree with you 100% If they want to keep the falcon,make it more futuristic or just let the Hornet make a comeback.

first of all, its over 500 years into the future (2557 - 2012 does not equal 50)
Second of all I don’t care how its propelled, I just want my chain gun on the front so I don’t have to solely rely on gunners to save my -Yoink-! (and give the gunners grenade turrets like in reach campaign since the pilot would have the chain gun)
Let’s have both!!!
I hated the Hornet. It’s rockets were overpowered and it was a pain to fly. The Falcon is like the Warthog of the sky. All they gotta do is gives objective carriers somewhere to sit down this time.
Love the falcon, glad its back

I loved the hornet! It was a good banshee counterpart! unlike the multiplayer version of the falcon which was nerfed by taking away the forward mounted gun and taking away the option to have grenade turrets on the side for the gunners! Multiplayer falcons forced you to rely on your gunners to survive, and often times when I got a falcon my gunners were either noobs or trolls.

The Falcon has always been described as the “Warthog of the Skies”. It’s not meant to have a pilot controlled weapon (in multi), its balanced against everything else.
Personally I think the Falcon is an amazing design, its good looking, sturdy and practical. Those other Bungie concepts are cool though.
Only thing I can make out from that Infinity shot is that the H4 Falcon has 6 blades on each rotor rather than 3. More pointless changes.

oh yeah lol 500 years then, that proves my point even more.
The Falcon can go to hell.
The Avalanche Hornet should come back as the air transport, and the UNSC Attack aircraft should the Sparrowhawk.

Multiplayer falcons forced you to rely on your gunners to survive, and often times when I got a falcon my gunners were either noobs or trolls, don’t get me wrong though i loved the falcon, but taking away the forward mounted gun was just a bit too much of relying on teammates for my taste. in the forge it should have the two types of falcons (grenade and minugun gunner seats) ans they should always have the forward mounted guns to be a banshee counterpart, and they should bring the hornet back to counter what ever the new forerunner flier will be (Assuming there is one)
> The Avalanche Hornet should come back as the air transport,
Who used it as an air transport? Nobody!
> and the UNSC Attack aircraft should the Sparrowhawk.
Because a chin mounted Spartan Laser and Autocannons is balanced?
They should both be in Halo 4. Choose the one you prefer.
/thread
Definitely both.
When I fly a hornet I feel to much like a lone gun (which is ok in the campaign) but falcon requires you to get gunners which makes it super fun if you are playing with friends, we actually call falcon Vietnam since it feels like flying UH-1 with dorsal mounted MGs
