Gauss Hog vs. Scorpion
The Scorpion is that fat guy everyone takes shots at, but know if he gets ahold of them they are going to be dead, while the Gauss Hog is that annoying kid at Recess who is almost as strong as the fat guy but 5x faster.
My personal preference has to be the Gauss Hog. It is almost as powerful as the Scorpion and what it lacks in defense it makes up for in speed in agility. So Flood, what is your personal preference of these two vehicles?

Gauss hog because magic instant death from 100000 miles away.

It really all depends on the situation. Huge post incoming. The Scorpion is the UNSC's Mighty Glacier. It hits incredibly hard, can kill multiple targets with a single shot, and is packed with heavy-duty armor. It's a devastating vehicle (like all things) in the right hands. But the Scorpion does has its downsides. The driver can be lured into a sense of invincibility, so he might take unnecessary risks that might eventually lead to his downfall; secondly, the Scorpion is slow and not particularly known for its agility. A smart boarder can exploit these traits and easily take the tank out. Not to mention the long-ass respawn timer. On the other hand, we got the Gauss Hog which is a less-durable form of the highly esteemed Lightning Bruiser role. Even though the hog doesn't near the Scorpion in terms of durability, it's still pretty rugged; nothing less of gunfire will damage it. But still, a good driver tries to avoid being shot in the first place. Secondly, the warthog's speed and agility make it the harder target. But once you add the Gauss turret, the Warthog becomes a high speed, high power murder-train. In the hands of a smart crew, the Gauss Hog can outdo the Scorpion when you compare Dealt Damage to Damage Taken. Warthogs are also good for objectives and the player riding shotgun can effectively multiply the warthog's DPS if he's carrying a heavy weapon. Pick your poison. [Edited on 11.22.2012 11:11 PM PST]

In Halo 4 a gauss gunner with a good driver is infinitely more valuable than the scorpion, which has a bullseye painted on it. My average kills with the scorp is around 9, by that point half their team's gotten ordinance drops and at least 2 have gotten splasers [Edited on 11.22.2012 11:10 PM PST]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SpartanElite117 The Scorpion's gun fires what is presumably a 12 kilo slug at 900 m/s for a muzzle energy of 4.8 MJ. An M68 fires a 1.22 kilo slug at 13,600 m/s for a muzzle energy of 112.8 MJ. Clearly the M68 wins because it's like 20x as energetic.[/quote] And the Halo nerd takes the prize!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ArmedAssassin72 The Gauss is annoying as hell. The Scorpion just makes me laugh when it shoots at me. Its like that type of laugh where you're scared of the thing but you find it funny when you almost die when it misses by a mere meter. [/quote]
