I don’t think the mantis should make an appearance because it seems to me it will be just like the equivalent to the Unreal Tournament 3 Deathwalker. On site it killed an was hard to destroy. It should not be in the Match Making because <mark>quite frankly I don’t wanna see long sob storys later on how other people are getting wrecked from it.</mark> Thats all they do when they talk about Halo reach’s big team battle. Save us all the heartache.
It will obviously be a very nerfed version of the mantis.
No probably not being that its just gonna be released an every game has flaws on the release. 
Have a nice day.
At most it will be as powerful as the Scorpion, likely less.

Probably not because you’ve never played in it.

So because I’ve never played it it’s most likely going to be super OP? Makes sense.
It has a gattling gun and possibly rockets, that are likely to have ammo. I don’t see how that could be OP in any sensible way.

Since most vehicles behave differently in MM compared to campaign yes a nerfed version. Do you honestly believe they would put that into MM without any consideration of how it would be OP. Given the fine tuning they’ve put into balancing the weapons I doubt something this big got overlooked.

I guess when you put it like that, what if they don’t though? What are you gonna do when you see someone making a topic ohhh no the Mantis its so noob it kills me everytime please take it. My statement was more or less don’t put it in the multiplayer.

It will happen regardless of what they do making your point moot.
From what people have said, the Mantis is not in the multiplayer, and only makes an appearance in the Campaign. Even if it is, it would be like the original Hornet in Halo 3: Available in Customs but would never see the light of day in MM due to its OP.
I doubt very seriously they’ll let something as OP as a Mantis be available in MM.
i’m petty sure that it wont be in MM
I’m just gonna say right now that it will be in MP

If it’s broken AFTER people try it out, then remove it via forge. It’s that simple.

If some of the leaks are true,it will be in MM.And considering there are only 2 new vehicles im sure at least one of them will be in MM if not both.
Yeah, I am 99.99999999999999999999% positive it will be in multiplayer…
uh…is speculating the likely outcomes due to…certain…things…result in a ban? I hope not…

No, you can post about it, as long as its not a leak or something.
Link?
Why would the Mantis ever be in matchmaking? It was already confirmed campaign only.
Now maybe if there were a smaller mech to use on certain maps HINT HINT
The mantis seems like a good combination of a mounted chain gun/turret and a few rockets, except with the mantis you can shoot both at the same time. Not that overpowered. Also, has it been confirmed to be in mp?
