the one in this video, at the very beginning. What do you guys think of using cars to get around in this larger environment? It would almost be like GTA. Maybe we could have a transport 'hog at least.

think of it this way: would they really make you run the whole way through the city? doubtfully. theres probably going to be quite a few vehicles (not civilian) around

It seems a little pointless to be driving a car with flashing lights and a siren in a more stealth oriented game.

It is possible, you might find an abandon warthog from a fight, or a mongoose that was abandon in a fight. And let's not forget any covenant vehicles or city transportation from SI.

Well this IS a huuuuge city there are going to be ways (possibly cop cars) to roam the city.

What would make it even better is if it had the Ghostbusters' Ecto-1 siren =P

I think you might be able to drive a cop car...and i have "evidence" to help prove my theory

1. In all the demo vids the Bungie employees make sure to stay well away from the cop cars (so as not to bring up the "Press RB to enter"
2. Bungie have said there will be many new methods of transportation...

  • 06.27.2009 5:35 PM PDT

Would you dance for it?

A transport hog with sirens would be cool.

Kinda like a SWAT armored truck.

  • 06.27.2009 5:42 PM PDT

Driving the cop car would be awesome. I can picture myself chasing after a couple of grunts in my cop car.

Plus, in that video I posted, the dude playing gets a very good look at the cop car and focuses on it for a little while.

Another thing i noticed whilst watchign that vid is when Joe Staten is talking about the Superintendant he says what the SI does and he says something like "He runs the medical kiosks, controls traffic...runs the garbage trucks so maybe we will be able to drive garbage trucks aswell...another thing that backs this up is that Bungie said that originally there was gunna be an Elephant (the vehicle) in it but they changed it to something else.

there will be an elephant, according to the achievements that we will not discuss. Also, though he did talk about garbage trucks, he also talked about controlling traffic, and there will obviously be no real traffic in an abandoned city. We can only assume he is talking about the super's functions, and not his functions in game.

It's like a retard riding a bicycle while eating hot wings.
Sometimes you have to take the bike seat off to really enjoy it.

Maybe a Subway to get to key locations, and a smaller vehicle like a mongoose for just about anything?

I like this. Maybe there could be a mini-game when you're on the subway, waiting to get to the next area, you try to shoot through the windows at covenant that you pass?

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

Home made teleporters. :D

I didn't see anything about an Elephant in that thing we're definitely not supposed to talk about...Anyway...shhhhh, the Ninjas are coming

I hope we get new vehicles. Or maybe some of the Covie vehicles that were in Halo 2 but not in Halo 3.

Cave Johnson here, we're done!

PS: If you are reading this comment while imagining my voice, don't panic. That's just a side effect of the testing.

You know what? A cops version of the Halo universe would be epic, just imagine ODSTs arresting grunts and brutes while patrolling the streets of New Mombasa.

Arresting them? Now what would be the point in that?

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Ok, you use your lame po-po car. I'll use my AT-AT.

Prisoners of war, they might be able to inform us of things that we don't know. Like maybe an interior weakpoint of one of their cruisers, or maybe some information on their weapons. Or maybe even a description of their homeworld.

There would be no real point, it's just a stupid idea, let's leave it at that.

But it would make it that much more awesome. :)
