hold x to get out of a vehicle?? crazy guy just tap x, its delays by the animation of you getting out of say a scorpion so it just looks that way.. as for melee combos i suspect joystick movments determine the attack you use. For instance: forward + (B) = front butt smash, strafe left + (B) = left side butt smash and so on.. just a hunch tho

OOooookayyy!

First of all, there is no confirmed boost for warthog.
Second, it should be left thumbstick click to crouch, right thumbstick click for zoom!
No, maybe if your in the passenger seat, tapping X will reload the weapon, holding it will get out!

I think OXM messed it up becaue the left trigger is the horn for the Warthog, while the right trigger is the emergency brake.
