The wraith is basically a giant "highjack me" brick. I don't know what 343 did to the mortar, but it's so damn awkward to aim the arc now. The firing reticule is just dopey and the mortar itself travels about as far as a deflated balloon.Which means in order to do any really good damage to people or actually land your hits, you need to get in close. Which, frankly, is a death sentence becauseA) Vehicles are made of paper, so rather than use them like an engine of destruction you have to treat them like sniper rifles and stay at the back of the mapB) The wraith's mortar recharges slightly faster than a cellphone hooked up to a potatoC) Has wide highjack angles, terriblely slow mobility, and is limited only to front facing targets. Once again, the scorpion is better in every single respect.Maybe the upgraded wraiths are better. But so far, the default standard is a laughable hunk of shit.

Slow mobility? Do you even boost bro? Anyway, gimme all yo Wraith cards. I last longer in them than I do a Scorpion.
Warden Eternal was tougher than I expected. Took me quite a few tries to kill him. Campaign has been pretty good so far.

I wasn't expecting to get an Xbox One or Halo 5 anywhere near as soon as I did, so I read through some of the threads on the game. I'm just going to assume that there's a way around the fight or that it takes place in an area that allows you to fight them more effectively than in this mission.

[I find it ridiculous that the UNSC still have an inability to give machine guns to their drivers. Or that my spartan doesn't want to leave his vehicle when someone is on the back of the tank.

But the disadvantage is offset by the fact they don't cost as much to bring out as a tank.I find it ridiculous that the UNSC still have an inability to give machine guns to their drivers.

Better than the free kill headshot seat it is now.

So is the Mark IV going to be a REQ thing, or just handed out when the CU drops?
