I was just wonder what would happen if you were to hijack a vehicle with people from another team in it, or does that not matter.

don't know and this raises a lot of issues. like in a warthog you hijack th gunner seat, does the driver still drive? and can you shoot the others in the warthog. if your driving and someone steals a place in the side seat can they then move onto kick you out or do you carry on driving while they shoot you to death forcing you to bail out. an old strategy in CTF was to go into the attackers vehicle so they couldn't drive away with the flag. i know you can't have the flag and drive now but if you waiting for someone in the turret to stop them driving away will it still work or can they just hop in and drive? whats to say you can only steal someone elses vehicle by hijacking it? maybe with team games you can just hop in a not fully occupied warthog?

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.

Frankie discussed this in his E3 Weekly Update. They are calling it the vehicle parasite. If you board a warthog and there are other passengers they stay in.

Gunning from the enemies Hog. That'd be awesome! Of course, if anybody started heading for a cliff I'd be the first one off.

The brute in the 2003 trailer ripped everyone out (except MC he just casually climbed out and kicked the brutes ass). SO maybe its like that.

One thing that confuses me is if your jumping on the front of a hog, can the gunner shoot you down? Or does he kind of duck out of the way? Anyone?

if your driving i dont think you can shoot. Maybe a passenger could help. i know in Halo that the passenger can look down far enough to shoot the front end of the vehicle so maybe you can shoot people off. who knows. i sure cant wait to see what happens though.

Its gonna be awsome when someone tries to run me over in the hog, and I jump into his passenger seat, turn to my left, and destroy him.

maybe if you get on the front you can take the two guys out like the brute in the demo. i would have liked to have seen what would have happened if master chief stayed in the hog? would the brute knock him out too?

Sorry that was a typing error I meant to say "gunner" (as seen in my edit) does anyone think you could use the chaingun in the back to gun your boarder down? It would be cool and you would have to think a different aproach to boarding, I think they should... Either board the front when theres no gunner to seize the drivers seat or board from the back to grab the gunners seat. I also think its a good idea because if your driving wit ha gunner, you'll be more secure in the fact you cant get jacked

Clarification.

MP jacking is differnet then Single Player Jacking. As of last year in single player it was a two step process. You jumped onto the vehicle and then could do one of a few things, kick him out, shoot him or grenade him.

In multiplayer it was decided to reduce jacking to a single step operation. Like others were saying, you can jack any position on a vehicle, leading to the warthog parasite.

well we havent seen any hog MP jacking so maybe hes just going to do what the brute does leading to instant death from the gunner.

To answer ash's question if you can shoot them off, i think you can. Its just that he was showing that the brute could take the hog. If you have a missle hog obviously you wouldnt shoot. If you have chaingun or maybe gauss you could shoot. I think

yes, you can. frankie was talking about a new technique that players picked up on during E3 this year. Parasite. you basically knock the gunner out of his post (this can be done beacuse you can board any part of the vehicle), and start shooting at the driver and the guy in shotgun. which sounds like a crap-laod of fun (although you might have to be careful besuae you might accidently kill yourself).

I don't remember Frankie saying that he could shoot the driver and the passenger... just that he could cause some serious havoc with the rocket launcher. Either way... damn fun.

Mooman is correct. Also if you hijack the rocket gunner's post, you can shoot the ground and the tires will burst due to shrapnel. This is effective if the other team has the flag.

That's not shooting the Driver or the Passenger... though still quite effective. I was considering a broader definition including the LAAG and the Gauss gun.
