I think I am not alone when I say that vehicles need to be stronger, it should be near impossible to take them out with only BRs, DMRs, and light rifles. Power weapons or other vehicles should be close to a necessity in my opinion to take out a vehicle and the power weapons should be much harder to find then they currently are where it would seem that every other player has power weapons because of ordinance. To go along with this the vehicle spawns should be much longer to avoid them being too overpowered.
Just my thoughts at the moment on vehicles for the next game
Vehicles should be stronger.
But we need to make sure not to over-do it.
I’m split on vehicles. I know they are too weak currently, but is the solution to lessen the weapons to destroy them on the field or fortify them?
I don’t know about vehicles being stronger because today I was playing and a gauss hog took 4 frag grenades and barely started to smoke. I think the real problem is the Loadouts are able to carry the Plasma Pistol and Plasma Grenades which ruin vehicle gameplay.
EDIT: I could agree to your thoughts to a point, but when team shooting a enemy vehicle it should be able to go down rather quickly.
i still think the main problem is Plasma nades and pistol in loadouts.
in games that have no custom loadouts, i can easily dominate the match in almost any vehicle.
i’ll give you the ghost however. I have never been able to kill a ghost with my assault rifle, that’s just ridiculous
Keep the vehicles the same, get rid of loadouts and ordinance drops. Those things ruined Halo 4 multiplayer. If you ask me, 343i are trying to make Halo’s multiplayer like CoD’s multiplayer, which is not a good thing. Real Halo multiplayer requires skill, not the ability to start the game with plasma grenades and plasma pistols.
Make them heavier.
Do not misunderstand 343i, that doesn’t mean it should take like a hundred grenades with Cowbell on to get a Hog over a small ledge… looks at Halo 4 Hog
I mean make them flip less easily from shots and when driving over small rocks…
Anyways, yeah, don’t make them too heavy. This is merely a fraction of Halo 2’s power. We need to be able to launch Hogs into orbit!
Vehicles need to be tougher. Just look at this poll.

Basically, you want vehicles to be a lot more like Halo 3, and I happen to agree.
Precision weapons and small arms fire should do very minimal damage and the weapons you find on the map should be what you primarily need to destroy one, excluding sniper rifles.
Plasma pistols and grenades should be found on the map, along with rockets, brute shots, concussion rifles, grenade launcher, fuel rod, gravity hammer, laser…etc
