Siege Bikes: Yea or nay?

Recently, several new vehicles have been added to the Halo Universe, most notably the Siege Bike. Now, this vehicle only appears as a Mega Bloks toy but is confirmed to be canon. It is said to be the UNSC equivalent of a Ghost, and deployed in a similar manner. Pretty much a faster gungoose, but with a single continuous track rather than wheels. Do you think it should appear as a usable vehicle in Halo 5: Guardians?

YES! Hell. Yeah.

I would like to see it on certain maps but not all of them.

Why not? More the merrier.

Well, it might behave pretty similarly to a ghost making it pretty much defunct.

I’m not that interested in a less maneuverable ghost to be honest. If anything, it would belong in the campaign but not the multiplayer imo. One of those campaign only vehicles that you get to ride in for a part of one mission.

If they are going to add a less maneuverable ghost type vehicle into multiplayer it had better be the…

Brute Chopper.

I agree with you on that. 343 would have to do some serious thinking to differentiate it properly from the Ghost. The bike could have similar movement if 343 gave it two tracks so it could turn on its axis, but then they’d be functionally the same. I think 343’s resources would be better spent developing a human air vehicle.

What’s with all these UNSC counterparts? Some vehicle types just need to stay unique. Instead, create new vehicles that fill new vehicle roles utilizing different species in Halo.

I hope it gets rocket launchers or a passenger seat. If not the ghost will just outmaneuver it, this has been proven with the gungoose

I don’t want it. It brings nothing special to multiplayer.

But it looks super badass and it would be great for machinimas. :slight_smile:

I suppose 343 could make the Siege Bike have its own role by upgrading the weaponry (maybe rockets) and reducing the speed. That way, it could be the equivalent of a Chopper. Or they could go the other way, and instead have it extremely fast and maneuverable but without powerful weapons.

Agreed. The old mongoose is getting a bit stale.

You want them to add stuff, because of Machinimas? Seriously? Instead of debating on if it’s worth the disc space, you’re more worried about that? PRECISELY why it shouldn’t be in the game.

Yes!!! YEs!!! YES!!!

Yes?

I had never heard or seen about it since now, but I want it.

No, that is literally the dumbest concept for a vehicle. The UNSC has antigrav tech now, so why the hell would they make a motercycle with freaking treads!?

A campaign-specific mission would be fine, I’m not sure about multiplayer.

Well the Gungoose is pretty much the “Human Ghost” in the games now so I wouldn’t see the benefit of adding this bike unless the Covenant faction gets a similair vehice to their arsenal.
