- Most btb maps won’t support it - its going to be a legendary req - it’ll have to be a ground takeoff - it will be a lightweight - it’s going to be a five-seater phaeton
Maybe not in BTB, but in Warzone will fit good.
Also we need bigger maps for Warzone and BTB.
I said BIGGER!
Bigger maps for warzone?
Judging by the armor 343 puts on their vehicles, in wagering a falcon would go down with about 3 DMR shots.

I know right? All of the vehicles in this game can die from the tiniest amount of small-arms fire. It would be so cool to have the Falcon, but vehicles are just really underpowered in H5

- They will if 343 patch them in.
- And…?
- What does this have to do with anything? So are the Phaeton and Banshee.
- Again, and…?
- 3 seater. Maybe 4 if they add a spot for the flag carrier, but Reach had different varients I think anyway, Troop, Machinegun and Grenade Launcher.
I do think the Phaeton needs more of a buff, and I don’t see your point…I think the Falcon would be a great addition to Halo 5.

Lol just give it better underplating and make the top center or the exaust be the weak spots for it.

Seriously, how the heck did the supposedly advanced Forerunners come up with the genius idea of an air combat vehicle with a giant exposed core on the bottom that if someone shoots from the ground blows up? The Phaeton makes no sense from a design perspective

^This, finally some decent feedback as to how 343i should armor the Falcon.
Hell, just pop into Reach, see how many DMR shots it takes to take one down, equate that into Halo 5. If they need it to be weaker than the Reach version, make the exhaust ports high damage locations. But it really shouldn’t be an issue, since the Falcon can be brought down by sniping the pilot (an aspect no other heavy vehicle has)

Don’t you think that’s too many? Maybe 2 DMR shots would be better. 
what?

Maybe they tried to balance it so that people who don’t pay for reqs still have a chance with loadouts. Otherwise people who bought reqs/vehicles would have a way bigger advantage and warzone would be closer to pay to win. As is everyone makes a difference whether they bring out a req or not. Food for thought.

You’re exaggerating… no more than 2 xD
I’m looking forward to see if they have a change seat animation, where you’d have to quickly jump from the gunner seat into the cockpit, or vice versa.

Great minds think alike!
There would not be an issue with the falcon spawning in air. It might drop slightly but it would be fine. Pretty much work the same as a phaeton, minus teleport. I’d like to see multiple variants like the warthog with different (or no) turrets
My big problem is trying to bring it up from the ground. Could you imagine trying to land that thing and your enemy has 2 bases. It will get blown up before anybody can get on.
It’s pretty much going to be the warthog of the sky… Imagine what the ONI falcon will be like tho

Hadn’t even remembered this! Would be a difficult thing for them to do I’d imagine. Probably will not have the option to move from pilot to gunner (just like there’s no option to hop from the driver to gunner seat in the scorpion), or if there is a way it’ll not be a detailed animation since then they’d have to mess with leaving the cockpit. If you just mean hopping from one gun to another, I’d personally not like that to be a thing. Part of the tactics for flying a Falcon was making sure you had your gunner on the correct side during a strafing pass. Would kinda lower the skill level to use a Falcon effectively.

Sounds like a scenario where you don’t call one in at that time then m8 
If you already have it out, guess you make the best of it and try to play it safe and support the take-back of the base closest to your Home Base. Speaking of the Home Base, the Pelican Ports are perfect for allowing you to land safely and collect teammates!
