There’s usually no time to fight back if you have the flag; you just haul ass. Getting into a Warthog or a Ghost with boost can be crucial to a quick getaway.

This was stated by a person who played at E3 obviously you can drive with the flag because of the statement about the ghost.

sinbad and everyone else get to play because we don't matter. just because we're all a part of the seventh column doesn't mean we get all the cool privleges that the pesants have. it just means that bungie won't use us for slave labor once they take over the world.

Yup, I think that guy just miswrote what he meant to say.

I played Halo 2 demo at E3...

I got an easy triple kill as I got close to the flag, grabbed it, went straight to the hog. Nothing popped up on my screen, just then a bungie employee hovered over me with a chuckle and told me you can no longer drive the ghost or hog while carrying the flag.

It makes sense after all, I mean how easy would it be to boost out of there with a flag?

These guys probably didn't even get into a vehicle to go and score a flag...you really don't have to run that far, its about the length of a football field to the outside perimeter.

Hey poster don't get all crazy with people just because you read something and now choose to believe it.

Twelve Large ²

An army of sheep led by a lion would defeat an army of lions led by a sheep.

The flag respawn time was 30 seconds, also. So it wouldn't be too hard to run that sucker back with the right teamwork.

No where in the FAQ does it say you can't drive with the flag common sense people if you can drive with a rifle you can drive with a flag.

Ok well assuming you can't drive... not sure if thats a good one or not. You should at least be able to be transported by someone else, like in a warthog or something.

What do you mean you can't drive with a rifle??? Of course you can! You hop into the hog and drop the gun on the passenger's seat...or whatever.

You can be a passenger in the warthog. I think you can still man the turret in the back (not 100% sure).

You cant drive with the flag. I have read it and If I say it's true it's true. You may be able to get a lift from someone though. Think about it a vehicle needs 2 hands to operate but your 2 hands are holding onto the flag. Hmmm but you can hold the flag if you hitch ride.
That brings on another question actually, if you can ride in the hog will you be able to on the tank? The tank needs 1 hand to be held on the rung.

And the term for having a rifle in the hog is 'riding shotgun'

That is much better, cause than in ctf one person can't rule all. It makes the game more team involved.
