Subject: Any ideas for new vehicles?

The jerk store called; their all outa you

they say its a very big playing area for ODST. there has to be a quick way to get around. it was even said in an ODST showing, "so how will we get around, by elephant?" and responded "once the game comes out youl see just how close that guess actually was"

So how do you personally think we will be traveling around New Mombasa in halo 3 ODST? and if you had a choice, what vehicle would you use?

I personally just love zooming around on a mongoose. i hope that is an option

it will take time to WALK through the city
deal with it cause youll be spending most of the time WALKING through the city fighting or avoiding covanant patrols to get from point a to point b.
and if youre angry go WALK it off

If I had to guess, they would probably have a mongoose or a ghost, probably something light.
however, from what I've seen in the Demo, you'll probably travel on your own 2 feet.

yeah, i wouldnt be too upset with this, even if there were vehicle options, i think the first time through id like to walk the way, see if theres anything to be discovered or just check things out.
On my second and later go throughs i think i would prefer travel by mongoose or some other vehicle

It does, along with most of the other vehicles, minus the spectre, shadow, elephant, prowler, and chopper. Note: this is only the campaign list, I don't know if firefight has vehicles other than phantoms.

You get around using your high-powered, super fast, aerodynamic, technologically advanced ELEPHANT! :D
Imagine going through alleyways with that thing.

hey, im not exactly sure what they meant, but they did say that elephant travel was a fairly close guess

Maybe they'll introduce the Covie-Equivalent to the Elephant...

I would assume some kind of vehicle or fast travel (similar to The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion) for traveling around the playing field. I don't think they would make us walk everywhere (I hope). I mean maybe for the beginning of the game, but eventually we would come across some kind of vehicle.

  • 07.13.2009 11:58 PM PDT

hopefully troop warthog but maybe a jet pack or something would be cool

You would think that a big city like New Mombassa would have some kind of mass transit system, right? Think along the lines of monorails maybe?

I'll use my legs when i'm rookie otherwise i'll take the vehicles in the flashbacks

Do you see the tigers too?!?!?

How will I get around? Hard work and dedication...hopefully my clients will recommend me to their friends so I can make more money too. I'll walk. Unless I find a vehicular object.

TY for that one. I am the type of person who tends to get to paranoid to get in a loud zooming vehicle that I'll panic in & crash.... Plus vehicles would make the campaign go by too fast for me. Maybe a crappy run down monorail system but other than an occasional mongoose I wouldn't want a vehicke- unless... they are all found low on fule? :D

This would certainly be interesting.

Anyway, I think you'll largely be forced to walk, but occasionally you might find an intact Warthog or Mongoose, or maybe you'll be able to kill the driver of a Chopper then drive it yourself.

I didn't read the whole thread, but from what I did read, I'm a little surprised that some of you think the night time scenes are going to be gimped in comparison to the flashbacks - you do some more exploring that usual as the rookie, but you're still battling enemies; the Covenant isn't asleep while you're out and about.

The trailer had a scene with you on the back of a mongoose blazing through the city.
