Suppose it's just for gameplay reasons... give you something interesting to fight... although, if you look at the Scarab in H2, hundreds of missiles from Pelicans did absolutely nothing... I reckon the ones in the Game are made weaker or strong depending on what you got to do, H2 Scarab, indestructable except for by completing the level, while the common ones in H3, are completely destructable. Other wise they would be boring enemies to fight constantly aye?

This seemed like a good place to put this...as soon as I watched the "A Spartan Shall Rise" ViDoc, I noticed that the Scarab in that ViDoc is huge. The crashing Pelican is about the size of its AA Cannon...No amount of perspective could cause this. Although it could be a "Super Scarab," so to speak, I find this doubtful. -- [[User talk:Joseph-G111|Joseph-G111]] | This seemed like a good place to put this...as soon as I watched the "[[A Spartan Shall Rise]]" ViDoc, I noticed that the Scarab in that ViDoc is huge.

"because frankly, it looks not a bloody thing like a Scarab." Are you serious? Have you seen the differences between the Halo 2 Scarab and the Halo 3 Scarab? It is now considered canon that they are two seperate models, which just proves my point that you shouldn't consider something not canon just because it doesn't look exactly the same as the Scarab we know. You don't have to put that it is canon, but do you really have to put that it isn't to be considered canon because it looks different to a Halo 2 or 3 Scarab? Just don't mention its canonicity on the page at all because it's not needed.-- [[User talk:Joshua 029|Joshua 029]] 13:24, October 9, 2010 (UTC) | |||
:I would like to point out that the Scarab in HGN has been resolved through the following quote: ''"The story is canonical, but the visuals of the story clearly are not"''. As such, I don't think there is any problem with the article, other than a cleanup of information and lack of citations. Oh, and it took you a year to respond?

Yes i did consider that they may just be wires but there are some istinct flaws with this iea, the fact is that they are exposed, there is no reason for this no other covenant technology features exposed wires, they are around the power core (like the lekgolo on the h3 scarab) an hte next problem is with color, they are a distinctly different color, there is no reason for this. Nobody hwen designing a giant walking tank just says during the esign process "you know what how about some giant exposed tan-orange wires on the belly of this thing" if you havent noticed things tend to be desinged the way they are for a reason [[User talk:Ralok|ralok]] 03:10, April 28, 2010 (UTC) | Yes i did consider that they may just be wires but there are some istinct flaws with this iea, the fact is that they are exposed, there is no reason for this no other covenant technology features exposed wires, they are around the power core (like the lekgolo on the h3 scarab) an hte next problem is with color, they are a distinctly different color, there is no reason for this.

I heard it scream. It's probably because, for example, Hunters growl-seeing as they are both beings made up of colonies of Lekgolo worms, I'm guessing they both have the ABILITY to make primitive animalistic noises. -[[User talk:Joseph-G111|Joseph-G111]] 23:13, October 14, 2010 (UTC) | |||
== I'm asking for a valid change here guys and gals. == | |||
It is clear, a big destinction, the Scarab seen in Halo 3 is '''very '''different from the one we see in Halo 2. | |||
'''<u>The Scarab from Halo 2 should be called the Type-47 Ultra Heavy Assault Platform. </u>''' | |||
'''<u>It should also be the main picture for the article!</u>''' | |||
Now, the walker we see in Halo 3 should be called the '''Type-47 Ultra Heavy Assault Platform-(A)''' | |||
''I don not know if this is supported in cannon, nor if it is accepted by Bungie or the Microsoft Corp.'' | |||
<u>Reasoning.</u> This will clear up alot of confusion, I believe. It will distinguish the beast that was deployed at New Mombasa, form the walker deployed at The Battle of The Ark, Battle of Earth, and the Fall of Reach. | |||
The Type-47, being how powerful, can not be called the smae thing as the proposed Type-47-(A). For many reasons, power, size, speed, crew, and interior/exterior design. | |||
'''I'm begging, pleading for this, I respect the Scarab, It deserves to be in a class of its own, I mean common', its called the "Ultra Heavy Assault Platform"! ''' | |||

WHAT? Thirty to forty what per second, times per second? but that is impossible I am going to change it to 10 times a minute. Please correct it if I am wrong.[[User talk:Coolmon54|Coolmon54- Hell yeah]] 20:52, March 16, 2011 (UTC) | |||
