You can bring one of these mega-vehicles back in their own specialized PVP or PVE game mode. Do you choose:
- The H4 UNSC Mammoth?OR
- The Covenant Scarab?
If the Mammoth comes fully stocked with vehicles, weapons, jetpacks, and the Target Locator, I’ll take it.
Plus I don’t think it can be taken out super easily with one well placed shot, so yeah
I’d be happy to get the Scarab gun… lol.
MAMMOTH if anything, if it comes with armor upgrads heavy weapons, vehicles and aircaft landing pad. AND it being genuinly created by game devs.
though the scarab is a somewhat heavily armored and can wreak havoc which is something the mammoth cannot do
so i guess depends on your play style?
Mammoth.Its a mini base with a lot destructive potential due its mini MAC.

I’d think that if we put the Mammoth in a PVP mode, that MAC would have to be nerfed for the sake of balancing.
Campaign:
The Majority of Halo fans would want the Scarab back but knowing how things are usually we would get the Mammoth!
Personally I Wouldn’t mind the Halo 3 Era Elephants from Multiplayer making a return in a Campaign instead!
Multiplayer/Firefight/Warzone:
Multiplayer, No it would be too over powered
Firefight/Warzone, Yeah Maybe!
I’m a fan of the Scarab gun. I think that should be added at least to play with in Forge mode.
I’m stuck between the two; one is a mobile fortress bristling with guns and a mini MAC, the other is a mobile assault platform - no slouch in the weapons department - that can traverse through rough terrain.
I just don’t know, honestly.
Scarab for Nostalgia reasons
Cough MetropolisCough The Stormcough
Mammoth because of mac gun and the arsenal inside of it. Would be bad -Yoink- if it turned into a mech/robot when it gets pissed or a tire blows.
The scarab is overrated
Obviously Scarab, it’s fun as hell to board it and destroy it and (obviously never happening) controlling it, bet it will be fun as hell too
Scarab walker, no doubt for me.
Strategically speaking the scarab is much more mobile and maneuverable, sure the mamoth has a big gun that could probably one shot it, but it would take time for it to aim and fire. In that time the scarab could pepper the mini mac with shots from the anti air cannons, (depending on the scarab, lets go with halo 3’s) and disable the main weapon. After that the scarab would be free to fire the excavation beam at it destroying the mammoth in one or two shots.
You could have three game modes actually, kinda an invasion type deal. Spartans raid the scarab, Elites raid the mammoth, and then mammoth scarab wars. (No on rails, it’s all player driven)

That would be sic!
But I think that they’d have to get rid of the minimac and scarab plasma drill(main weapon) else it would be to OP, maybe replace the mini Mac with a landing pad for wasps or something like jam said, and modify the scarab to be able to deploy spectres, ghost, and banshees to balance things out

I can’t see why not have both types, but maybe that’s a bit to ambitious lol
I’d love to have a Mammoth to drive around in Halo! Not just sitting in it while it’s driving in campaign, no. To drive a Mammoth and have all your friends hop on board and kick butt with? Hell yeah!
I would have to go with the mammoth as it has a mini mac on it. Has tons of space of maneuver and store weapons and vehicles. It take tons of damage and can deal out a ton.
Mammoth VS Scarab… tough decision.
The Mammoth:
weapons: Mini MAC, 2 Rocket Turrets, 2 Warthogs, and Marines.
The mini Mac has only been seen shooting at phantoms or particle cannons. I’m sure it could target a large vehicle like a Scarab but it’s unknown and was more likely built for anti-air operations. So that would leave the rocket turrets with marines and warthogs as the main assault force.
Armor: can withstand multiple wraith, ghost, banshee, and phantom shots, but one shot from a Linch and weapons and mobility disabled, and weakened.
The Scarab (Halo 3 Version):
Weapons: Plasma beam Cannon, plasma Cannon, 3 plasma turrets, and a Squad or two. We have all seen the destruction nature of the Scarab’s weapons.
Armor: The main body of the Scarab can take a massive amount of damage if the core isn’t exposed. Aside for the core being the weak point the only other weakness in the armor would be the legs, causing enough damage to immobilize the Scarab.
Now with all that data, for halo 5 gameplay I think the Mammoth would be best. However for a game like halo wars I would perfer the Scarab.
Both are awesome but the Scarab hands down is the most fun to fight
It would be cool to have a mode like Star Wars: Battlefront´s Walker Assault where you would have to escort the Mammoth or Scarab depending on which team you are on.
Responding to the question about which one would I choose, I´d say the Mammoth.
