The former was meant to be Halo 3's (other) rocket launcher of course, so you can see 343's thinking behind the new (now scrapped?) launcher. Even now Bungie are fucking it all up.

I'm probably a little late, but hey, I doubt all you knew this already

The G4H-DuSH is a UNSC rocket launcher which was to be featured in Halo 3. It was never implemented in the game's code, likely because the M41 rocket launcher fills the same role.

It wasn't going to replace the one we have now. It was going to be another version of a rocket launcher.

Rocket design is initially from Marathon Durandal, not Halo 3.

Spoiler
Funny enough, those designs were called SPNKRs too, and the design shifted across Marathon -> Durandal much like the design from Halo 1-4 -> Halo 5.

Was the SPNKr pronounced as 'Spanker' or 'Spunker'? I'd like to think that I've been spunk-whoring these past 10 years.

I've always said it like 'spinker'.

Desticles will still try to pin this on Activision and Gandhi will still try to blame 343 and anyone who doesn't play competitively

This!

Looks don't mean jackshit you guys. Halo Reach Assault Rifle looked ugly but it was still functional right?

What's important is the code behind it. You can always change appearance easily and effortlessly. In one of my classes I once borrowed a portal gun mesh that looked like a Cow's dick:



Does it not? Or is my mind too fucking dirty?

You spend a little too much time in the barn.

Also, the Reach AR may have been "functional" but it also may as well have been shooting airsoft marshmellow rounds.

I think you got that backward. It looked awesome but it was a paintball gun in terms of firepower

How the hell is it 'Spelunker'? There's no 'L', and what does cave-diving have to do with a rocket launcher?

I knew the Marathon launcher was a SPNKR, didn't quite connect that it was the same as the H5 design. Still, didn't 343 say they were going to re-instate the original SPNKR after the reaction to the new design anyways?

Yeah, as a map specific weapon like Prophet's Bane.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.

Why do people care about the rocket launcher when the sword sucks so much ass it blinds you when you hold it.

I really hope they fix that.

Yeah. One of my few complaints about H5 was how I ende up avoiding the sword as it just blocks half the screen.

Personally, I like the new rockets- looks way more functional now. I really hope they do the same to the 'Hog and Scorpion, and make them actually look like feasible military vehicles.

For the scorpion it could look something like this with the tracks on each side being connected. It looks like an actual tank and it still retains a similar design.

Even going the route of the Grizzly from Halo wars and Spartan Assualt would be better; thicker armour and now the turret to above the driver so they any be sniped out.

That alone would increase the functionality like, 100%.

This thing would be one badass Scorpion. Like you said it  would have thicker armor and the driver is more protected. The other thing is that there are tracks in the middle would would help prevent it from bottoming out. But we can't have anything like this due to retarded gameplay. After all hijacking it would be a pain in the ass.
