"The Warthog
Despite being deformable, the old beast seems tougher and more responsive than ever. It also appears to have a bit of a roll-cage to it, as a few times I witnessed it take a glancing hit and tumble on its side, only to bounce back upright."

is this -blam!-, imbalanced, or what?

look at the video below, it looks a little lame how it just "bounces" back up for no reason

you have to remember this is still like 1 year before it comes out and they still have to balance everything. but yes i think the warthog shouldn't roll that means u can kill other players easyer.

When the worthog rolls over it has a rollcage so it lands upright easier. It didn't really bounce, it rolled.

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

That may have been for E3 to keep the action up instead of flipping out then dieing.

but it's an elemental part of vehicles in halo, why would they change it.......if you get blasted or drive improperly on a hill you DESERVE to roll over.............

it doesn't take that much skill to drive the hog well..............

It looks to me that it landed on its side in and rolled over because ot the momentum. and the new rollcage thing is in the physics, its not visible.
And if it was going slow, it would "roll/bounce" back up.

WE GET THAT ITS NOT DONE, K??????????????

discussing it doesn't hurt and if they release a video of this -blam!- then obviously they're pretty close to being sure of what's in and what's not in the game.

You are right. The Warthog will be easier to drive this time around more traction. The skill will come in using the handbrake to pull off contorlled slides.

As for the rolling over I do hope it does not right itself as easy as it was in the E3 demo.

Maybe it was a fluke, a one time thing. Maybe it would be much harder to right itself.

Watch the version with Joe Stanten from the press conference. The Warthog gets flipped from rockets and even running into a wall and stays flipped.
