The Mantis in Halo 4 is gonna be hilarious.

I'm sure most of you have already seen the [url=http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/Universe/detail/halo-4-mantis-trailer/5c5bc6fb-7cb0-4552-be8e-d6f54ed5c417]Mantis Trailer.[/url] The ending just makes me laugh. Seeing a massive mech suit tea bag a spartan is just awesome. 343 knows that tea bagging is a Halo tradition so that's why they gave the Mantis the ability to crouch. There's really no other point for it. With the size of it, I doubt it would be able to crouch behind anything for cover. I can't wait to use it in multiplayer.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] III H1TMAN III I wonder what would happen if we'd enter a man cannon in the Mantis. Maybe we could do some awesome moves like backflips or Teabagging the air.[/quote] Lol. And I wonder if it's possible for the mantis to tip over.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] alex0612 I hope the Mammoth will be for Multiplayer.[/quote] That would make many people really happy. Even if it's not in MM, at least forge for custom games would be nice. That thing looks awesome.

  • I haven't really been paying attention to halo 4 news so I was just overjoyed to see valhalla come back from halo 3, it was my most treasured map and there just wasn't quite anything like it in reach [insert typical anti-nostalgia reply here] anyway, the mantis looks like a terrible addition to live multiplayer (if that is indeed what is is) but promises a lot of enjoyment in forge and custom games, i'll be interested to see how it can handle footballs...
