I have no idea how this happens.

Basically when I drive a warthog it is slower than everyone else's. I first noticed this on a ctf game in mm when my teamate was screaming at me to speed up but i couldn't go any faster and we ended up getting blatted by the wraith. I then tested this in customs with friends and in a base to base race on Coag I will lose by quite alot and it is not my driving as he can draw level with me at top speed and then burn off like my warthog has a smaller engine.

This is not a controller issue either as I have tried 3 different pads driving and walking and the walking is normal as I am the same speed as averyone else. The warthog is the only vehicle that does this.
Anyone else had this? I has been happening for a month or so now.

maybe you arent pushing the joystick all the way forward. i remember my friend could always go faster than me in gran turismo 2 because i didnt push the button as hard.

I swear it's all the way forward because i run the same speed also the little rev counter on the dashboard is at full red so it is all the way forward.

when going slow try pressing the brake button then let go and you should speed up to the proper speed

Sweet that actually worked cheerz man. Am I the only one that gets this?

No you're not, several people have mentioned this problem and I don't think we know why it happens. I get it too occasionally, I click down the thumbstick and that seems to clear it up. Very weird.

Never had this problem, but i played lots of Halo2 years ago, not now... so maybe it's a new glitch or something

This happens to some of my friends and I when playing online. We always joke about it "I'm stuck in first gear! shift Chief, SHIFT!"

I used to have the same problem, went away when I played on a different controller or when I play on my 360.

You aren't alone.

I bet I've seen a dumber thread than you have.

if your pushing forward all they way and your still slower, then your controller is worn out
