Seeing as there are covenant vehicles is there going to be vehicle hijacking? Remember your an ODST second only to spartans so you must have a technique or something.

Reach needs to be patched. It's the truth.

Unless you're some kind of super ninja, there won't be hijacking

Honestly, I don't care much if ODSTs can carry turrets, but if they can carry turrets AND hijack vehicles, that's going to leave me wondering why we aren't playing a Spartan in the first place.

I don't think so. Remember, you have no shields(Yes, I know about stamina).
If you want to hijack a ghost, per se, it would be hard without the ghost firinging on you.

It'll be better without hijacking. It'll take skill to kill the driver and preserve the vehicle for your own use.

Nope, because Spartans have faster reflexes than regular soldiers.

Then there are the people who poop in the mash potatoes. Those people get launched out on their asses.

Actually, Staten mentioned in one of his demos that there will be jacking in the campaign I believe.

Yes you can still hijack from what i heard.
In some firefight levels they disabled hijacking so you wont get wraith and keep going forever

They can carry turrets (as seen in a gameplay vid) but I'm not so sure about the hijacking part. I'm going to go with no though.

Oh yes, because punching and kicking things is a feat only performable by Spartans. IT HAS ALREADY BEEN SAID YOU CAN HIJACK!

I hope you can still sneak up behind a wraith and plant a grenade on it.

I can see an ODST hijacking a ghost but not a wraith. A spartan has to punch through the alloy to kill the driver or plant a grenade. An ODST could plant a grenade on the back though.

Nope, you can't 'spartan jack.'

I'm pretty sure you can, because they said they disabled hijacking on certain firefight maps for balance reasons, and I don't know how they disabled it if you can't do it anyway.
