The main reason why Bungie has taken the ability to drive while holding the flag is to promote teamwork. I always wondered why Bungie let it happen in Halo 1, its not exactly realistic. Taking control of a vehicle while you have a giant pole, with a flag flapping about at the top doesn't seem too easy.
What I think would be good is that all the extra features Halo 2 has could be taken off if you want. There's bound to be some aspect of Halo 2 multiplayer that rubs people up the wrong way. Look at this topic, its got lots of people ticked off.
Personally I think that not being able to drive while holding the flag will make a much greater challenge. It makes you strategise a lot more. You have to make sure there's a driver there to take you or you're running all the way back to base!
