Remember in Halo CE when you used to drive a warthog or a scorpion, passenger/gunner health points would appear on the left of your screen, kinda like this when you skip to 6:00 (Make sure its on High Quality, otherwise it will look blurry).

Do you guys think it should be brought back in Halo: Reach? I think it would help drivers focus on protecting passengers riding along with them a lot better since they know whether or not they are low on health.

And yes, I know that the health system has changed a bit, but I'm sure that it could be incorporated to at least show whether or not the passengers' shields are below normal by having an indicator flash red or something similar, or hell, Bungie could reincorporate the Halo CE health system, seeing as it most likely will take place before Halo CE.

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

I can't scream "YES!" enough. That was an excellent idea, and I want it back for at least campaign.

Yeah, at least. I forgot how helpful it was when I was playing Halo CE the other day.

Most definitely. I think it should also be implemented in multiplayer. It's always important to know your gunners health. Although this is assuming Bungie is bringing back the health system from CE. *crosses fingers*

That too. It will also help those drivers who don't have a mic or for those drivers who have a gunner that doesn't have a mic so they don't have to scream something like "Could you take some cover, I'm low on shields!" every time they're about to die.

I would also like something else brought in.
Remember when you use to be able to zoom in with a sniper while in the passenger seat of the warthog?
Yeah...I want that back.

Yes! I loved that feature. And I bet that the player will have health too since the Mark VI armor hadn't been released yet, so a revert to the old Halo 1 health system is very likely if you ask me.

Sure, but I'd much rather have a gap in the cockpit so that we can snipe tanks. At the moment it is far too powerful.

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 would love to see first person passenger seat brought back, even on the mongoose, and everything. That would be cool.

But yeah, the 'health thing', maybe it should show your passenger's shields. No health though, because health is a bad idea.

Why would you want no health?

actually, it would be very wierd if this game didn't have the Halo CE health model, because the fall of reach takes place RIGHT before halo ce

I think having the driver able to see his passengers' health was an awesome feature in Halo 3. However, I'm not decided on whether the health system itself would be a great idea. Maybe so because the armor for Spartans on Reach wasn't as advanced - ala Halo 1 armor, health packs may make sense.

Additionally, first person view for passengers (and maybe even gunners?) was awesome. What's even better - make it toggle between first and third person with the crouch button. And make it so players can ride on Scorpions.
