Wouldnt a sick vehicle be and APC, a driver, plus 6 passengers, each passenger would sit inside the APC, facing a slot in the side of the APC and be able to shoot out of it and throw nades in, BUT as a count to that, someone attacking an APC, could toss a nade inside one of the slots OWNING everyone inside. Your thoughts?

sounds like somethin like a warhammer tank, a lemun russ or something like that, it'd be sweet to have an APC like a warhammer tank in halo though...

An APC would be badass. Just a little smaller than the Scorpion in size, so that its easy to manuever, but not as easy as the next warthog will be. I think that there'll be a pasenger warthog that has a flatbed in back thats able to hold troops, but an tank-like APC would be cool.

i may be on crack, but when halo2 was first announced about a year ago, didn't they show a bunch of warthog variants that were planned for halo2? From what i remember, there was a snow warthog, standard warthog, jungle warthog, and transport warthog. The transport hog, had no mounted weapons, but a large open bed with a cage around it for 6 in the backand i believe two in the front, so an entire 8 man team could travel together.

here is a link to this very old scan that shows the four variants of the warthogs.

Sgt. Johnson, is like the same as the sgt. in Aliens. Does anyone else see this? Or am I just crazy?

Alot of stuff in ALIENS is like halo. the Marines have a slightly similar armor, the pelican is in a way like there drop ship without the missles, the have assualt riffles and that one dude had a shotgun. And you like right on the dot with that sargent guy because hes all like "MMM...Simply BADA**".I wonldnt be surprised if they got some of there ideas for how the marines act form that movie.

I think it would be cool to have an APC for SP that could replace the pelican in some situations, but in MP that seems like an unfair vehicle.

I think you folks are thinking of something like this

That’s the official US Marine Corps "APC" or rather AAV (Amphibious Assault Vehicle) If Bungie does infact include an APC, that’s the one that they should modal it after.

yeah, you guys got some sick ideas. Imagine cruising into an enemy base loaded up in an APC, bullets pinging off the side, and everyone shooting out, then a lone guy runs to an exposed side, pops a Frag inside, and KABOOM the whole APC explodes...imagine the possiblilites

For those who dont know what the ALIENS Marine APC Looks like:
APC 1
APC 2

And the Dropship(in armed and unarmed positions):
Dropship - Unarmed
Dropship - Armed

APC would be sweet. Kinda like in BF1942...it won't have any real use other than transporting alot of troops.

An APC like the ALIENS one would be sweet.
In AVP2 custom maps people make a little door where you could go inside it and get things like ammo armour and health. :P
