When I was playing the Alpha I kept noticing how fun it was to drive the Sparrow. I began thinking of ways it could be used to maximize its play time. Here are my ideas on Sparrow related things. Join me, won't you?
**[i]Note: All ideas could be incorporated in DLC or sequels to Destiny. I do not expect my ideas, if any, to be available with the launch.[/i]
[u][b]The Crucible[/b][/u]
Imagine competitively racing in The Crucible. Tracks made, like The Crucible maps, separate from the wild. Racing your friends and others would be a great addition to the Sparrow's use. Plus maybe the possibility of custom made tracks would just be mind blowing!
[u][b]Deathmatches[/b][/u]
Anyone who played Halo, including myself, would know how fun it was to have vehicle wars. Imagine, for deathmatches only of course, to have guns that could be used to battle other Sparrows. It would be total mayhem, and it would be total fun. Think of weaving in and out of any Sparrows while trying to get that one sweet kill. The battles would be epic.
[u][b]Two Seater Sparrows[/b][/u]
Now this idea is not necessarily limited to The Crucible. Having a two seater Sparrow with the ability for the person on the back to wield a gun would be great. It would give the game a more cooperative feel. Plus it would be another great game type, very similar to the Mongoose and Rocket Launcher game type in Reach. This would be a great as an expensive Sparrow that could be purchased at The Tower.
So those are my ideas. Which ones do you like? Which ones do you hate? And don't forget to vote on the addition of Sparrow races at the top. Feel free to comment below.
Peace!

It would be different, other than competitive shooter, sparrow racing could bring a change

Edited by TaCTiCaL32: 6/19/2014 2:49:05 AMThis seriously needs to happen. Would add an element to this game that would put itnoff the charts. Bungie, you REALLY might have stumbled onto something great here. Would love love love this. Whatever the star wars racer for the N64 was, was amazing, and you guys could top it theoretically with crazy tracks all over the planets. My buddies all laughed. They would be like what are you doing? And I would say just chucking around in my sparrow. So fun. Im actually a little sad its not in the game. I know damn well there are a few Bungie guys that love ripping around in those things! Dont you lie to me! Still fun rippin in them though! When you do add it though. You should add a Speedrun mode as well. Driven alone, as fast as you can go, point a to point b.

I almost feel like this is all I want.
-
All of they above
-
-
Of course I'd want to use the Sparrow for more than just getting about in world! What a silly question to ask!
-
Co-op racing with 2 people in the seat, one firing at other speeders omg just came.

[b]Sparrow Racing[/b] = Pod Racing (Star Wars Episode One style).
-
I personally think it would be awesome. Really fun and I'd play it - especially the two seater one - have them boost twice as fast too just for the races and have grenades and heavy weapons able to knock the enemies around! I read somewhere a racing game mode was mentioned in an interview with a Bungie staff member but it had no source so not sure about that one.
-
Yes! Multiple seated vehicles please!
-
I recall in a weekly update back way earlier this year that I cant link cuz I dont remember which update, there was a part where they talked about racing so im wondering if its gonna be an actual mode which would be cool.
-
So exactly like mongoose racing in halo?... I would love that! Defiantly going to suggest that during the beta :D
-
Heck I'll do it in the beta whether it's implemented or not!
-
tl;dr play forza or some shit
-
Not as an actual game type more like community organised custom game style
-
You don't want that. I am one with the sparrow. The titans is the fastest. Build to carry heavy armor. It's a turn and burner.
-
I think that's happening in the full game
-
I thought the same, Sparrow racing would be great! Adding a feature that let's you shoot with one hand and drive with another (like a drive by action kinda thing) [b][i][u]WOULD BE SO GOOD[/u][/i][/b] also adding even more to the combat versatility and creativity.
-
I've already seen some Youtubers (Team Epiphany) doing races already without the game mode, so I don't see how adding a game mode would hurt that much. However, two seater sparrows should be limited in some way (large maps only, 1 per match, etc...) as they would probably be abused if there was no limits to them.

Cool ideas, the two sweater sparrow idea is awesome. Would be awesome to race around the moon in 2 player squads!
