Subject: Wait A Minute, How Will Vehichles Work Out...?

This game takes place in the distant future. For all we know, the vehicles flip themselves back over once they're touched or something.

They could incorparate a peice of equipment ODSTs have to do that

"All ODSTs come equipped with a futuristic jack that can flip any vehicle"

Or just force you to use grenades, Be careful, you might blow up your hog :P

For the sake of gameplay, you just hit RB to flip the vehicle.


amen to that man

Why the hell are you looking at this? Get out.

And no group invites, you jerk. I'm not interested.

You missed marines flipping hogs back up in Halo 3? They do it, man.

  • 06.16.2009 9:21 PM PDT

You could have to have several buddies with you to flip vehicles. . .

Or, the vehicles don't flip in the first place.

I blame it on a severe diagnosis of Legendary/Mythic speed playing... The marines were either too slow or too dead for me to see...

Vehicles have pressurized canisters of air at the sides of them which activate when you press RB, flipping the vehicle.

I made that up, but it makes sense.

Yeah, because it makes perfect sense that a spartan can flip and elephant.


:D

Iam enjoying Halo Reach and revisiting some past Bungie games, iam a big fan of Bungie and their online community.

On ODST you will nead to find the nearest pay phone and call a repair service. Or alternitivly you get 4 ODST's to help you.

You're most likely gonna be able to flip vehicles for gameplay reasons. Especially with how easy weapons like brute shots and grenades can flip warthogs.

Bungie probably knows about this and heres what you should do. Well If you flip over a scorpion tank you should get in a mongoose and ram the tank constantly with it because Human5C4NT F1iP V3HICLES !?!?!?!?!?!OMFG PHY5iques omgftwbbq.

Sorry about the last part it just seemed needed. It is a game you are supposed to have fun. If you want to do something where a human can't flip a car or tank by themself then you should OMG?!?! GO OUTSIDE!!!!!!!!!! I hear Outside has a great physics engine.

I think ODSTs will be able to flip mongooses or ghosts.Mabye even warthogs with a few ODSTs.But seriously how often do you flip a tank when your not messing around?Bungie should put in a message so if you flip the tank in the game it will say(Well,your screwed).For all we know you might not be able to drive heavy vehicles anyway.

In the gameplay trailer it showed mongoose driving and a small moment of scorpion tank driving.

Why do we wait until the 4th installment in the franchise to make sense of physics? In the books Spartans could do amazing things. In the game Masterchief cannot punch rockets to deflect them. The suit only modifies reaction time and strength. We'll say about to 10X human status. Even the strongest humans can only lift about 1/2 a ton. Yet somehow Spartans can flip a 10 ton tank on their own. Not to mention normal marines can lift, run with, and set up 1 ton turrets and they are only regular humans. Mounted turrets are mounted for a reason. They must put steroids in everything in the future. Probably why Miranda Keys had that 5 o'clock shadow...

Yeah I know I saw it.Its just that sometimes things in the trailer never really make it to the actual game.But Im sure you will be able to drive them.

Nope Miranda Keyes has te 5 o'clock shadow because of all the plasma grenade radiation. I R Smurt

You have to call up RAC, using your special ODST Limited Edition Cell Phone, then you have to wait 3 hours because of traffic delays.

No really... does it matter?
Just hit RB

  • 06.17.2009 3:17 AM PDT

in campaign, when you flip your tank. "Hold RB to kiss your ass goodbye"

  • 06.17.2009 5:18 AM PDT

So, you want to hear a story eh? One about treasure hunters? Have I got a story for you!

Who cares... Its just a game.

i just realized that spartans have trouble walking with turrets but can flip an elephan in under a second

  • 06.17.2009 5:31 AM PDT

Real men use magnums.

Why is it so hard for people to understand that for the sake of gameplay bungie overlooks some things. Yes you can carry turrets and probably flip vehicles. Just accept it as a sacrifice for gameplay and quit trying to think of a canonical reason for it to be possible.

  • 06.17.2009 5:38 AM PDT

How do we know there will even be any vehicles in campaign? I really don't see where you would use a scorpion.. the warthog I can understand or some mongooses(geese? I'll never understand this...), but tanks really don't fit with the gameplay idea... well, to me they don't.
