The Gauss hog will be so sweet. I prefer the high velocity shells to the big explosive rounds, but thats just me.

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


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

The guass gun is a more of an anti-vehicle weapon and the rocket hog is for more general destruction of environtment and infantry.

From my experience in playing Halo for PC, I've found that the rockets on the warthog are too hard to aim and if you miss then there is a long reload time. With the gauss rifle, aiming will be much easier since the projectiles almost immediatly hit their target. The projectiles seem to be almost as powerful as rockets seeing that 1-2 hits will destroy a ghost. I believe that the gauss rifle hog will be much more effective than the rocket hog so thats the one i want to see!!

I need a weapon.

Everything Arclmpulse said was right. The rockets move way too slow to be used effectively. Id rather use the normal Warthog with the chaingun than the rocket hog. From what i saw in E3 2003, guass is the way to go

Guass.... If Bungie doesnt add a Human Flying Vehicle (HFV) then at least add a big gun like the Guass to even out the edges... I wonder how good the Guass is good against Infantry since we already know how go it is against Vehicles from the E3 2k3 Show.. From Last Year..

rocket is more effective than the gauss hog on infantry which is the main thing in multiplayer and a rocket is enough to stop a worthog

I like the gauss gun becaue gauss weapons are cool. What I really want though is a gauss rifle with an insane rate of fire and extreme damage. Way to unbalance the game!

Both,but no Gauss in MP. We saw what the gauss did to covies and their vehicles in SP. Imagine what it would be like in MP. It wouldn't be far cause someone noob (lack of a better term) would be camping out in one just shooting everything that moves, it would suck to have that happen. Maybe put ten or fifteen rounds in a clip and then have to reload ( MP only) just to balance it out a little bit.
