Everyone says that you are able to board that Banshee. But no one (but me) has took into consideration of how you are seated in the Banshee and where. First of all, your intire body (except feet are inside the cockpit of the Banshee like Superman. So how would you get him out, like yank on his feet or something. And if you somehow got him out, how whould you get in? Unless they completely redesigned the Banshee for Halo 2 i don't think it is possible to board a Banshee. Or maybe if they out a button or something outside the cockpit to open the hatch then no boardable Banshee here. Did anyone notice this other than me?

Wow, they blam out the c0ck in cockpit... I really don't like banshees. Off topic, I think the inclusion of banshees ruined multiplayer in HaloPC.

Back on topic, I agree with you, I don't see how someone could board a banshee.

If you are able to get on top of it I would guess that you pull open the top and just push the other person out, then you just jump in yourself and the top closes

I've never been a big fan of banshees, they make Blood Gulch games on Halo PC really boring. However, I imagine that they are going to be really awesome in Halo 2. Anyway, back to the subject. I don't think banshees will be boardable, it would be way too unrealistic and odd. But, I imagine that they will be easier to take out of the air unlike in Halo PC where they can retreat too fast and recharge shields.

i'm pretty sure the banshees have the boost thingo on em... they'll be able to run out of war zones at the dint of a wing. But that's balanced by the banshee being destructable.

You bring up a good point, Banshees can now be destroyed in MP! I don't mind Banshee usage online cuz I can shoot people out of those things pretty easily...

Anyway I agree, Banshee boarding is kinda stupid lol just like being able to board a tank how the hell would you get the guy out of the tank?!

Not really, there was something around here a couple months about how someone noticed in one of the screenies or something the model of the Banshee has changed. Now I have no idea as to how much its changed, but it might have been so people can maybe jump from one Banshee onto another and board it mwhhaha....ohhh sounds so much fun :)

Dont forget the banshees health is as low as a ghost's health. Also you cant pilot a banshie when you get the flag so that stops the banshee run technique. Can you say mass warthog runs in HAL0 2.

I know how you do to board a banshee...
You just jump straight up, do a triple back flip with spin, grab one of the banshee wings, and by the force of your jump, the banshee will start spinning so that the driver gets dizzy and falls out. You then enter the driver seat, and if you're lucky, the other player will fall to his death.
I know this from very reliable sources.

I dont think u would be able to board a banshee. If u could it would only be yanking them out by there feet and not getting in afterwards kinda like jacking the warthog. Dont go thinking that there arnt any vircles that cant be jacked because if the scorpian stays the way it is then the cover over the driver will prevent it.
