... implemented vehicle-to-vehicle jacking in Halo Reach?
As in A person is on a mongoose and they are riding next to a warthog and they are given the option to jack the opposing warthog, whether it be the driver, gunner, or passanger. Adding on to that would be some thing else.
Now I am sure we all find ourselves in the situation at times when we end up riding shotgun for a enemy player. With this being said I suggest in-vehicle-jacking. An example would be you riding in an enemy passanger seat which is occupied by an opposing gunner as well as driving. You may either jack the gunner or driver.

What do you tink about this?

Hello! Welcome to ProphecyXYZ / LashingRaptor's profile!

ProphecyXYZ is my current Gamertag, and username on pretty much everything. LashingRaptor was my first, randomly generated, Gamertag. Add me up for some fun, awesome matches! (E-Harmony, much?)

I specialize in Driving and Piloting, expect me to get mad if you take the Banshee / Warthog / Falcon when your don't even know how to drive. I write machinimas, and I voice act often.

That would be cheap.

If using a mongoose can destroy a scorpion?

I think that it would be fair to give the PASSENGER a chance to jack another vehicle.

An example would be the guy on the back of a mongoose can be driving beside a ghost and can jump off and drop kick the guy off.

Or the guy in the passenger seat of a warthog, or on the side seat of a prowler, or jacking a banshee from the side of a hornet etc..

This idea, it sounds like the boyo.

I'd love it!

But I wouldn't want drivers of vehicles to board though, that would be kinda dumb. I imagine a Chopper on Chopper battle and one guy just jacks the other one's chopper and the other does the same... that would be so pointless lol

But really cool idea, it would give me a reason to ride brokeback xD.

great idea, but instead of just jacking a person while in the persons vehicle, make it to where you just kick them off.

example: your in a warthog youve just jacked the turret gun , you press B to kick the driver out, the warthog stops and the passenger has a chance to kill you. aka you cannot kick the passenger out when in a turret, cant kick turret out when in passenger, and cantkick anyone while driving.

They did something like this in that Vin Diesel game "Wheel Man". It reviewed pretty poorly but I think that the vehicle jacking looked pretty sweet.

  • 06.22.2009 4:47 PM PDT

soo, passengers can board other vehicles? sounds pretty good. it'd be tricky though and it'd be pretty hard if the games slightly laggy because timing would be crucial.

It would really ruin the purpose of vehicles and vehicle to vehicle combat.

  • 06.22.2009 4:51 PM PDT

ok, but then you should be able to defend yourself from jacking like "press B to melee highjacker" and then you punch the jacker to see who wins

ummm... i'm not sure about this

what i really want is the ability to pick up and drop equipment from the passenger seat, then we could have Mario cart... =D

  • 06.22.2009 6:07 PM PDT

why are you guys saying it would ruin vehicular combat? Do you guys shoot eachother while metal grinding? I think it is a great idea, much easier than jumping out one vehicle then jacking another (trust me, that's hard)
it would add another unique side of combat

In-vehicle jacking? Just turn to the driver and punch him. Got gunner (not passenger)? You both get kills, no one will stop you due to fear of betrayal booting, haha.

But the vehicle-vehicle jacking is a good idea.

people are saying it's cheap, but it would just add to the fun of matchmaking, because we all know it's fun to tick off noobs every once and a while...

Just kidding ;)

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

That is a trippy idea, I wonder how it would affect gameplay though. Considering vehicle movement speeds were changed to allow for jacking in Halo2, I wonder what further changes would be needed to make this possible.

That'd be crazy as hell to see though.

I don't think there would be many things they would have to change.
I can't think of any at least.

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

I think you have been playing, or like the idea from Vin Diesel's Stuntman.

I think it would be going too far, personally.

Halo 2 is the best game EVER made.

The only way I could see this working would be if it were passenger only and you literally had to be 2 feet from the player you were boarding.
