you shouldn't be able to drive with the flag... they're balancing everything so the game will be completely different than the game you're used to... you have to know how to get in and out of a tactical situation to be able to get away with the flag becuse you have to have a driver, they confirmed in one of the recent updates that you can't drive ANY vehicle with the flag.

Can't wait to be rid of getting killed by a pistol when you're getting driven away...

Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

Here, here. And to anyone claiming that's it's SO hard to get a CAP now.... then you're tactics and strategry obviously blows.... my team is all about strategy... not CAP is earned by running into a base and blowing crap up with a Jackhammer and running out with a flag... we use cover and support fire...and there is ALWAYS someone to pick up the flag carrier or at the very least be his cover man...

I believe you. Considering all your posts use proper grammar and sentence structure, you can tell you're intelligent. Prove your clan rules when the game ships, until then there is no point arguing about it.

That's completely right! In a capture that invlolves 4 different players assaulting a base if one of the players dies, even if you cap the flag, it's a failure... OUTSMART your enemies, don't just fire blindly.. come in from all sides with a gunner laying covering fire... damn.. you'd think people would know how to play a 3 year old game by now...

Okay, you're not right. This is a forum, not a college doctorate thesis...

He's implying that he's a better tactician than the rest of us, and he's got no way to prove it. And the only insight we have towards his intelligence is the way we communicates here. And all I'm saying is that the sign aren't going his way.

Who are you, his keeper?

Well, you must be horrible at halo because you left the "s" of the word signs... and no I'm not his keeper, he backed me up for my opinions on this thread, so I'm backing him up in return.. it's called forum courtesy, like when you try to pass a semi, he flicks his lights to let you know it's safe, and when you pass him, you flick your lights back to tell him thanks.. or something like that....

True, all you have to go on is my word. Don't beleive me. I did not tell you to, I simply made a statement which I plan to uphold with my team come the release of Halo 2. Now, as for my grammer, I did not realize I was back in class. My grammer and English usage is very good since it is my minor in college. Now I could really careless how I type here. This is a forum, not a thesis paper. Do not scold me over the way I type. Secondly, I did not claim I was an excellent tactician, simply a good one. However, this is only been proved competing against teams where I live. For I know you or anyone else out there may very well be a hundred fold better than me. I am simply saying that those whom I have played against with my team have shown us to be better strategists. So take a chill pill.

Addition:Besides... there is a reason we have rough drafts before a final paper... to correct our mistakes.

Well if the flag carrier can't use the ATV, then that's where my skills can be put to the test. As in rushing in and distracting everyone in the base with a shotgun and letting the flag carrier escape....I'm good at base storming.

See, why can't you type like that all the time? It makes reading a lot easier and quicker. And sometimes that's key to joining a lengthy thread. I'm not implying that because someone makes one mistake, they're dumb. I think it's important to at least abide generally to the grammatical rules of the language for the reasons stated above. We settled it in a PM, so chill.

Check your inbox. We're all friends here, I made the post before I sent the first PM. So no hard feelings mate. ;)

Yeah, it's cool. And I'm kinda pissed at PD right now, because I got to lvl 2 after the stat wipe (big deal, I know) but then my router shat on me, and I lost a 100 points, and now I only have like 20 points or something. So I dunno, it might be a while before I play again. Are you pretty good?

Yeah, yeah, I know it's offtopic, but it's late, and I don't give a -blam!-.

NP.... I was pretty good. Haven't played in awhile. So I don't know. Give me an hour ot two and I'll be back. I was a deadly Merc. and an avg. Spy. And I didn't know there was a Stat wipe? Hmm... probably cause it was so easy to cheat at that.... I stumbled into a game where a 1 was going against a 6 and 5.... they told me to join the 5 and 6... and the 1 just threw game after game allowing us to rack up points... I reached a high lvl 3 before that night... then I stopped caring about the points I just wanted to play for fun.

Could someone please post where they got this info from? Because I've never seen or heard anything about this...Also, in GameInformer they show a sketch of the multiplayer map Burial Mounds and they're are people riding around on ATV's. Oh, and has no one else noticed the seat with the handles on either side on the back of the ATV, like there would be room for another person? I heard nothing from Bungie about it, or if it's even possible to take another person but it would be cool and work well for a flag holder.

Yeah, I was a lvl 4...but no I can't do well again. I'm a really good merc, but spy is really hard for me. The neck grab hasn't been working well lately.

As far as I know Bungie havent said anything about the final game however in the story "secrets of Zanzibar" the author says "And remember, in the E3 demo, you can't drive while holding the flag."
So it is possible that this will be changed by the time Halo2 comes out properly!

The only problem with this no driving thing is it doesn't work well when you play with 2-4 players just for fun at home not on live because when you play with that number of people it is important to be able to drive.
