Mysterious New Weapon in Febuary Update

Recently an image was released for the Halo 5 February update coming soon. Now we all know that the gravity hammers coming and so are new game types, skins, and Warzone recs, but there is one in particular that i want to talk about. If you look at the whole image they posted on the community news section on Halo way point you see right beside the picture of the Gravity Hammer rare rec, you see a blurred out rec that looks sort of like a teddy bear and its a mythic warzone weapon. I have some ideas but I’m still not completely sure what it is. if you guys have any ideas or thoughts on this please comment also tell me what else your excited for. I really cant wait for this update and I’m excited to see what this mystery weapon is.

I think it’s a hammer variant. Bet it’ll take level 9 reqs watch and see

It’s not the ce magnum that’s for sure

At first I thought it looked like the silhouette of a brute

Wow, never thought of that, but it would not surprise me. I agree it’s a hammer, but probably a lower req, like 7.

I’m not sure it looks like a weapon, heck it kind of looks like a jetpack almost. I mean it could be a weapon but a jetpack, I mean it’s bulky for a jetpack but who knows.

Red Spartan wearing a jetpack, its a bulker unit than older halo’s to fit in with the new style and it handled like a phaeton, controlled up and down, not thrust power only

I think its a bogus image to keep us guessing for a little while until they want to tell us more. Last update we were pretty sure it was the Halo 2 BR really quickly. This would be a good distraction for them to play that prevents that form happening.

Have a look at this enhancement: http://i63.tinypic.com/2ligca8.png

Tell me you don’t see the pistol on the background. To me it sure looks like it, and like they just put something in front of it to distract.

Looks more like a helmet to me, but it’s not a loudout weapon :confused:

What if it’s tarturus’ face. And the req is the fist of rukt. Because it’s for sure the fist of rukt.

This is what I thought, but it seems too far fetched.

I think it will be something like Tartoruses (no clue how its properly spelt) Gravity hammer because we have the profits bane which is the arbiters energy sword so it makes sense that since the elites are known for using energy swords so the arbiter has his own special one that Tartorus who was a big figure to the brutes would also have his own special version on the gravity hammer.

I doubt they will be including ANY hammer variants this update because its a new weapon.
They will want to see how its used, where does it succeed, where does it fail, then make some variants to give it an edge in places without being to over powered.

Sure we all might want the fist of rukt, but without knowing how the hammer plays in MM how can they balance its ability’s?

I don’t think it is a weapon but a new vehicle. At less that is what we hope. Several people have already had this discussing earlier this week including me.

Perhaps a hornet?

Teddy Bear armor confirmed

I swear it was going to be a new vehicle… I read somewhere that it was going to be a Scarab…

(and by somewhere, I mean I’m being silly and making it up)
:slight_smile:

OOOOO, that’s an idea, I have been playing with the idea that this is something new, not a weapon or vehicle, but something unique for this update, like a Jetpack, nothing like it exists at the moment, the armor mods are closest but don’t make that much of a different.

But what if this is a “Call for Back up” Req? basically it lets you summon something that is about the same difficulty as a normal warden boss, but it only attacks the enemy team? Scarab enters the field from behind your own base, rather than destroy the vehicle, due to its size it wouldn’t be able to come into the warzone completely, they are aiming for power conduits running up the side of the body/chest to shut down the weapon, at which point the Scarab will leave. Banshee flyby, we have elite allies now. Pelican flyby.

well lets face it…its not a hammer because the hammer REQ sticks off the end of a card but this doesn’t! I also cant see the CE magnum AT ALL! I will hope for a UNSC flying vehicle tho :3.
