everone knows marines can drive warthogs in halo 2.Even though you will never get lost I think it's not the best feature in Halo 2 because marines can't take as much hit's as you can and if your on a level like The Maw and your timed but the only way you can win is to not make any mistakes and marines are driving then a brute comes up and kills the marine driving you lost but if there are no levels like that I will like the feature a bit more.Do you think it's a good feature?

I think its a really good feature and if it were a level like The Maw then they would make you drive not a Marine.

Who cares if marines die while driving. You can just hop out and take is place.

Please let us give Bungie more credit than that...if it's gonna be something like the Maw I would think they would let us drive...but if it's a situation where we need to take some targets out they are gonna leave the shooting to us...Think logically before you make posts.

I thought when the marines stop to let you on you can just kick the driver out of his seat.

It'll probably be that way (this is already the case in Halo: Combat Evolved), unless it's needed that you shoot. But I'm sure the guys at Bungie have already figured that out for a long long time...

Wouldn't it make more sense to let the marines do the shooting? If you remember in Halo when the marines were shooting they didn't miss that much and if you had a sniper in the passenger seat you were invincible. Unlimited short range and almost unlimited long(never checked). Either way I think I would rather drive sometimes then have them do the driving other times.

To be honest with you I'm scared with the fact that Marines can drive Warthogs now .. they wont just run you over in Ghost's but Warthogs too ... I dont know about you but I'm frigin scared outta my witts!

No, maines and warthogs don't mix. Who needs marines? Its much easier to run everything over by yourself. When I play, at least 75% of my kiils are in a hog

Last I remember Bungie said the Marines will avoid running you over in Halo 2. So this is no longer a problem. Plus think of it this way. instead of just one Warthog you can have a Pelican over head, two Warthogs, and a Tank making an assault as compared to just one of those.

Besides, Bungie has stated that the Marines are going to be tougher and smart too. (smart Marine, yeah right) It was said that the Marines are going to be alot mor ehelpful in the second game.

Hey I resent that comment. By the way they already proved their driveing skills in HAL0. At the asualt on the control room al you had to do is get in a tank or warthog and if there is a neighboring ghost they would jump in and start running over grunts.
