Hesus, the Mantis is not overpowered you bunch of shmucks. You guys sure are skillful in wording how awfuuuuul~ the game's going to play but you fail to look at the possibilities in gameplay. The reload time on the rockets is super long. The cooldown time on the turret is decent. The speed of the Mantis is on par if not a tad faster than the Scorpion. It's sheer height makes it a huge target. A target for what? A target for Plasma Pistols which are a loadout weapon if you may remember. A target for a Laser. A target for Rockets. A target for Sticky Det. And countless other weapons. The speed on the camera is also slow. And when it gets EMPd, the shutdown and boot up animation is really drawn out, so you could keep it EMPd until you run out of energy. And the biggest weakness, is that because of it's slow turning torso and equal speed compared to a sprinting Spartan, AND the giant cone of area on its back, it should be one of the easiest vehicles to hijack. A guy who's played on the map has mentioned that it feels less menacing than a Scorpion, but turns the battlefield into a more fun experience. If anything, this beauty is more balanced than the Banshee. So shut yer trap, ya twerps >:o And that beautiful bald man known as Frankie knows ten times more about shooters and twice as that about Halo than anybody on this very thread. /Halo 4 defense force [Edited on 10.01.2012 9:47 AM PDT]
