------YOU CAN'T TAKE A GIRL TO THE LIBRARY!------

i'm sure halo 2 is gonna be awesome but something i've had on my mind since last years e3 demo was how much freedom will you have in halo 2 versus halo 1. like in the e3 demo when the MC jumps on the back of the warthog could you jump off at anytime you wanted to and if so how would it affect the game? when he was leading the covenant away with the ghost what if you went in a different direction how would that play out? if you shot the sergeant before he called in the longswords what would happen? just something on my mind

in the first one you could do pretty much whatever you liked - I don't think they'll change that much

in the E3 demo I wouldn't like it if those marines driving the warthogs always drove exactly the same path though... need variety it's the spice of life... apparently

Yes, the very same question has been plaguing my mind as well.

the E3 was just a demonstration that marines could drive, it would be scripted anyway.
In the final product however in missions similar to the demo I would say that the marines would follow roughly the same path but be slightly different each time, like if a grenade blows up the driver dodges etc. You would be able to get out whenever but the warthog would probably stop for you. Or maybe there will be a feuture so you can give orders to marines.
