Why doesn't Variks sell Heavy Pikes
How awesome would it be if he sold some? Imagine SRL with one of those! You see that guy who keeps shoving and you go *pew pew pew* and he goes *Kaboomshshsh* .
And imagine how many ways it could go wrong! Wouldn't it be great?
Edit: Ok, so I thought of a bit more.
Variks sells heavy pikes with custom paint jobs similar to the ship's he currently sells.
Someone else sells interceptors, Also with custom paint.
AND finally, we add guns to the sparrows.
Maybe even use those giant PvP maps for a pure combat mode. Sure, it's not ship fighting, but it'd be pretty fun.
Edit:As mentioned by "Jaeger00013" there should be an option for SRL between combat enabled races and regular races.
Edit: As mentioned by Variks, some regular pikes should probably come first.

certain sparrows should have a ramming/melee ability... that or bring in exotic sparrows and only put guns on them because that would look a lot better.

Edited by Helios: 1/28/2016 3:55:05 PMHow about we start with just adding vehicles that feel useful and see what we can do from there. Pikes and Heavy Pikes are a cool concept but the execution of both leaves a bit to be desired in my opinion. That said I like your idea. More than using them in SRL or world traversal though I'd like to see a few missions, a strike, or the next raid make using them a central mechanic. Right now they're kind of an after thought for a lot of players, make them something properly useful and they become an integral part of your equipment.

1 ReplyI was hoping for that when I saw them in how. Make them a tad slower and no one will use them in sparrow racing unless it's just to troll for kills.
-
The question to ask is why aren't Heavy Pikes included in Combined Arms matches?
-
1 ReplySRL would have been perfect with those pikes. But no, bungie just like to do the bare minimum.
-
Yep. Fireteam with a shooting pike. Blow up other fireteam while they ride their sparrows.

2 RepliesMario kart type racing were you pick up weapons for your sparrow. That you can cycle through with the D-Pad and when you use them on an opponent It destroys their sparrow and they have to respawn their sparrow to get back in the race. Also you can pick up special abilities for you sparrow like a speed boost for a short time or shoot another sparrow to slow it down for a short time. They would be random abilities and you would acquire them by hitting a certain amount of speed boost markers in a row and you can only store up to three abilities at a time. To bad no one over at bungie has a creative bone in their body.

But heavy pikes are slow and have grenades too

1 ReplyOr abilities on the legendary sparrows Ravensteel: can't touch this, contact with another sparrow uses a strafe charge but boosts you forward Graverobber: when pressing both thrusters at the same time with a full strafe bar boost forward while dropping cursed thralls
-
Should have sparrows like pod racing were can stun other players if get caught in between tractor beam between engines
-
If they add guns to sparrows there better be a sparrow colored like the speeder bikes in Star Wars.
-
3 RepliesIf they did it would have to be pike races and the sparrow races would have to be a different game type
-
Because they're fun, that's not the purpose of the game.

I miss vehicle combat from Reach, with multi-player tanks to run around in and blow things up. Or space combat.

1 ReplyAs much as I am for this, as it gives me more revenue, there are better things to add. Perhaps before adding a Heavy Pike, a regular Pike instead? Then they could be added, yes? I could sell both, with high prices for each. 150 Marks and 15,000 Glimmer for a regular Pike, and an added 1/6 to each and a Pike Token (acquired in the Prison) for the Heavy Pike. This is good idea, yes?

Mayhem SRL confirmed. Maybe now we can get kills streak rewards.
