Yes i do, jacking vehicles is one of the basics of halo.

I hope ODSTs are slow jackers. I mean in Halo 3, you can destroy a Wraith in two second like, that's too fast even for a Spartan IMO.

I had sort of hope that ODSTs couldn't jack but no matter really.
I will try to play as foot soldier in ODST probably. More interesting that way. Vehicles are cool though.

EDIT jacking is not a basics of Halo really. CE didn't feature it.
Though it was great addition to Halo 2, except homing rockets sort of made that useless feature.

I disagree, I think Spartans where able to kill Wraiths in the right amount of time, on the higher difficulties, getting close to a Wraith is semi-hard to hard with skulls on. A Spartan would be easily able to put their full weight behind punches and cave a Brutes skull in.

I'm not seeing how an ODST could jack a Wraith... how would he get through the armour? His strength is far less then a Spartans and getting close to a Wraith won't be as easy, you can't run as fast or jump as high. I guess you'll be stealth-jacking.

Homing rockets and jacking where okay in Halo 2, if you where a good driver then the homing rockets (while still posing a serious threat) could be evaded.

it just means that you can't drive wraiths on that level, which is fair enough, makes it harder

IMO the homing rockets pretty much ruined the game still. I know one could evade them, i could at least when flying and i saw it quickly enough. But i still didn't like 'em.

But my problem with Halo 3 jacking is that how does meleeing the Wraith to same place destroy it completly? Killing a driver is not a problem. Destroying the vehicle is.
I hope that ODST can only kill driver, not melee vehicles to scrap so that enemies may start driving them again.

Meh, leave it to a Spartan to rip a Wraith apart from its weakpoints. From either the cockpit or the powerthingy at the back it could be destroyed.

They said that they could not jack them on the map they were playing on. He went on to say that they still retained the ability on other maps.

And Jacking is currently a basic of halo. it's something people must remember just like having no fall damage. It wan't in halo CE but now remembering that there is no fall damage can be used to your advantage.
