Instead of covadent super weapons what about adding mines? For example like plasma mines or black hole mines?

Guys, we adhere to the Halo lore very tightly. It's generally a bad idea to come in here ad-libbing ideas you've pulled from 20 different sci-fi universes. You're here because you love the Halo universe, so respect that and try to stay on point. If you don't know if something is in the lore look it up, if you can't find it it's probably not something we're open to.

Guys, we adhere to the Halo lore very tightly. Don't come here vomiting ideas that don't have any backing in the universe here. You're fans of the Halo universe right? Why try to shit on it? Know what I mean?

I agree. The Covenant with mines? Don't think I've heard of that anywhere.

I feel the need to set the tone. We try very hard not to make stuff up. We pull stuff from the lore unless we need something to keep the game from breaking, then we delicately craft whatever needs to be put into place.

Don't get your hopes down mate, i think the idea is cool, but not haloish.

I understand that Super Weapons have been eliminated from both UNSC and Covenant teams, but why not make this their Novalith Cannon? Not saying it should be able to glass from afar just saying have a extremely expensive tactical slot hog that could provide a semblance of defense for the Covies.


No. The UNSC is the master of defense, if anything they'd get something OP.

With the new prowler will come new mines modeled off the shiva's effects.

On the subject of the Covenant Starbase, I honestly feel an upgrade of weapons/defences is needed. I'm not asking for a dedicated defence platform, but maybe something that's able to hold out for a little longer? Even if weapons aren't implemented, could it be given the ability to spawn ships like the Infinity?


I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

No. That thing is OP early game, and seriously needs to be nerfed.

Covenant starbase will be retooled just like the UNSC one, over time.

This thing can't be in the mod as a defense structure.  One of them put a round through Infinity, imagine 5 of them.

It has already be discussed, and it is said it will not get in

It still warrants discussion.  Maybe it'll get a nerf in the next escalation...in fact I'm counting on it since its pretty obvious that neither Lord Hood, nor Infinity will get killed/destroyed in a bloody comic after they invested hundreds of thousands on making Infinity a big deal.

But it's not only the power of the station, the station itself is as tiny as an SDV, and it's made special for an occasion

 

Not even built by the covenant, it was built by covenant remnant and with help of the New Colonial Alliance
