How can you say that its un official? Bungie makes Halo 2 and the people played Halo 2 which had a warthog with a boost, there fore Bungie put the Warthog with a boost in the game and therefore its offical. Just becuase Bungie does not directly say that its in the game doesnt mean thats it will not be. They never said it wouldnt be in the game either. Teh people who say it wont be in the game have no proof.

sorry I thought you were talkin about the boost thing not the duel plasma sword, but they did say that in the July issue I think. It wasn't worded that well so retards misinturpreted it.

SB-117

Why did bungie only mention that the ghosts boosts and not the warthog? Besides, both triggers go towards the brake and the horn (that is confirmed), why would bungie make you press A,B or Y to boost? If that was the case you wouldnt be able to steer because your thumb cant press the right stick and the buttons at the same time!!! There is no boost!

Yes there is and Bungie doesnt need to tell us everything they want us to wait and we will be surprised when it comes out.

  • 07.07.2004 9:44 AM PDT

Hey, anything's possible, we'll just have to see on the 9th

its already been confirmedtaht both the weapons are not dual wieldable. the battle rifle is two handed. and having a sword and gun is too unbalanced. dont flame thats just what bungie said.

I hope frankie sees this, so that he can tell us if its true or not. He won't get in trouble for revealing this since its already out on the tabloids. Dude who started this thread, rename the thread in capital letters, FRANKIE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD LOOK AT THIS THREAD!!!!!!

I doubt the Worthog will have a boost. So incredibly unbalanced (it can take a lot of hits, gunner and passanger, can carry the flag berrer and now can use a boost). I mean come on. Thats all that people will be use in CTF.

"Jumping in a Warthog and taking off to enemy base. Yeah, done that before. Hitting the left-trigger to inject the nitro-like power boost, screaming up a ramp and soaring majestically over a wall on a trajectory for the heart of the enemy base? Wow. That was new, and oh-so sweet."

It doesn't actaully say in there that he boosted with the warthog. It could be. Got the flag with the warthog from the enemy base. Done that. Soaring up a ramp with the GHOST etc. etc. ...

So really there's nothing to argue other as it doesn't say specifically that it's the Warthog they're boosting with.

yeah maybe but i think he would have stated ghost instead of warthog but then again they are only humans. humans make mistakes. it sounds pretty fun whatever the editor was doing. course he is talking bout the warthog. maybe he was just talking bout the vehicles new upgrades in general.

geez i am surprised on how far this thread went. 5 pages!! hopefully a bungie official will reply and clear this mess up.

Man, this forum is out of control, now lets see if I can help clear this up. O.K, yes, it is possible that by the time the game is released, there could be a boosting mechanism for the Warthog. Although kind of weird, it is still possible. Now about that OMX magazine quote, how do we know for a fact that the person was talking about the Warthog. Actually after reading the quote, the whole thing really makes no sense at all. It seems to me that he was just stating the different actions he could make in this game compared to the ones
he's already done before . Also, isn't it just a weird coincidence that the ghosts left trigger is also boosting. And if you get the chance check out bungies' FAQs it clearly states that the Left trigger of the Warthog is the e-brake and FYI the right one is the Horn. And Nitro like power, this is a warthog people. The last time I checked, these were fulled by gasoline, at least I hope so.

Wow, this forum sure moved fast, I was typing when we were still on page four. Well, I hope this helps to clear things up. But things could still change between now and Nov. 9th.

yeah but the last word in the quote was warthog. so it seemed to me that he was talking about the warthog becaue he didnt change the noun he was talking about. maybe bungie included boosts for the warthog for the E3 demo but then decided there were too many issues with it so they announced that there would be no boost for the warthog.

You might be right, I won't doubt you or the power of bungie. Because as far as I'm concerned all of us could be way off, as of now I mean. But he could have been stating two different actions on what he could do. O.K look at it this way...

- Jumping in a Warthog taking off to the enemy base, I've done that before

whats new? (Added)

- Hitting the left trigger to inject Nitro power, now thats something new.

He seems to be talking mostly about the Ghost...
