Mini-mech already confirmed by 343

In a past interview, 343 said that the Mech in ‘warhouse’ [tentative title] will not be operable, but there will be a downsized version for the players to be able to interact with for combat.

*First one to find the source (because i’m a lazy gamer) gets a steak dinner, on me.

There you go, confirmation of a new vehicle.

[EDIT] Halo Bulletin Interview Q&A source
Entire farm of cows to eben gibon king so he can have steak dinners all year.

I remember that quote (but I too am laxy), but as I recall it was a hint, at most. It was a strong one certainly but with the game subject to change they wouldn’t go so far as to confirm anything at that point.

I’d still say it’s likely (can I just have mash potatoes then?) but do leave room for the chance of unfortunate development cuts.

shhhhh shhhhhhhh DON’T TELL SAGE HE’LL NERF IT!!!

Don’t feel like it cause I smell a fishy chicken.

You’re getting a little mixed up. The quote actually says that one playable vehicle will dwarf the cyclops. It will be larger.
See for yourself.

You sir should get the whole cow for that. It made a senile old man very happy indeed.

Master Chief doesn’t need a mini-mech… he is a mini-mech! :wink:

Maybe …

Looks like the OP misread the quote. What was actually said was that while the Cyclops II on Warhouse will NOT be useable, there will be something that dwarfs it.

What that “something” is unknown at this time.

To be honest, i am quite scared at the moment. Are getting the first ever pilot-able Mech on big maps? Or maybe even a Vulture? D:

Scarab? War Sphinx? Pelicans?!

…Moas?! :smiley:

The idea of a guy wearing a powered exoskeleton climbing into an even bigger powered exoskeleton sounds weird and mad to me…

OBVIOUSLY that quote means that we can pilot Gundams in Halo 4.

I mean, what else could they do?

Or Virtualroids. Any good mech enthusiastic will have heared or played this very old but addicting game.

:stuck_out_tongue:

I am not responsible if Viper IIs airport theme gets stuck in someones head (or gives them a headache). If your speaks are set up to high, lower them.

What if the said vehicle is neither UNSC nor Covenant in origin but something entirely…different? Maybe something from this new ancient threat (it would be fitting since they are supposedly very powerful).

> Looks like the OP misread the quote. What was actually said was that while the Cyclops II on Warhouse will NOT be useable, there will be something that dwarfs it.

The gist is pretty much the same, it is strongly hinting at one in context. Put the two together, “some vehicle surprises” “will dwarf that weapon”. What else could they possibly be talking about other than the cyclops as a weapon? It is clear as day once you reread the last sentence enough.

I’m gonna get so fat.

isn’t that what a mjolnir armor is?

I wouldn’t look to this to be the next mech game though. the post actually said no to the mech but there would be a larger vehicle that you pilot that would dwarf that mech. So that could be a number of things besides mechs. It is probably just an elephant or a scarab.

Depending on how the suit handles, I could go one of two ways …

A)“Holy -Yoink- this is really awesome.”

or

B)“BAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWW HALO TURNED IN LOST PLANET/STEEL BATTALION/MECH WARRIOR IN SPACE NOOOOOOOOO”

Nah, just kidding, I’d never go with B.
