true grunt. maybe its just a bunch of bungie players testing the new stuff (tanks maybe?) but then again, thats too obvious.

what's too obvious? I remember a lot of shots of MP before E3, so they may have just been testing the tanks as you said. That might also explain why the elite is attacking the hog, so they can test desructability(excuse my spelling).

the gause rifle hog was takin out, it is now the rocket hog. if u look at the E3 2003 and the 2004 demo's the rocket hog and the gause rifle now look the same but shoot differnt things cus they took out the rail gun one. and that is a rocket tank shot cus the shot trail in a SR is cloudier and not so dense looking. the rocket hogs smoke doesnt go that far. and the only options left are the rocket launcher and the tank. so it is a hard decision, cus they havnt mentiond anything about the tank. but it couldve happend that this pic is taken from bunge when they were testing the map, before E3 and that they had the tank in it before they made some changes. WE JUST DONT KNOW.

i don't think its a tank though either it seems like to small an explosion


Maybe it was the end of an explosion, like when it was starting to compress as opposed to it still expanding.

Oh, didn't see him amongst the needles. Anyway, would a tank fit in some of the nooks and crannys of Zanzibar? I haven't really gotten to judge it's size, but I'm not sure one could make it through the drawbridge thing.

Actually the RG(Rail gun) hog migt still be in because if you notice the RG and RL look different the RG has a thinner barrel and the RL has a view reticle on the left side of it if you don't notice. Plus on the RG hog you stnd up close and directly behind it and on the RL hog you stand a little to the left.

Out of all the speculation here, it looks most to me like a tank round. Besides, tank shells arent very explosive.

Bearcat's got a point, a tank shell shouldn't make too big of an explosion on a rock anyway.

Yes, but HE rounds dont necessarily BLOW UP like you see in movies.
The M6D pistol uses HE rounds, you dont see them blowing up?

By the way, HE stands for High Explosive. Its usually used as an anti-personel round as apposed to an AP (Armor-Piercing) round design to penetrate think armor.

That's what I thought. Take a look at the picture. Compare the blast size to the size of one of the players. I think that's the average size of a tank shell explosion.
