Description

Introduced in Halo 2 The Spectre is a agile ground attack vehicle used for patrols and engagements. The Spectre has a Plasma Turret mounted on the rear, and has room on the sides for two passengers to ride along for increased anti-infantry capacity. It maneuvers more slowly than it's lighter counterpart, the Ghost, but it still uses anti-gravity pods to hover and strafe, allowing for a smooth ride over all terrains. Unlike other vehicles, the Spectre can boost without losing weapons power.

Conceptual Design

It seems that during the creation of Halo: Combat Evolved the Spectre was an idea that Bungie had in mind and ended up cutting. At the time it seems to have been called a Shadow, but it definitely resembles the Spectre a lot more. It can be seen in the Halo E3 2000 Trailer.

Trivia

  • Without modding or AR saves, you can only see marines get in your spectre on The Great Journey (Level). To see how to do this, check HighImpact Halo
  • If you press and hold A while driving, the front end will go up, enabling you to climb some walls.
