Do you think that the friendly AI's driving will be improved? At least I don't see any cliffs in ODST, so I don't think they'll be able to kill me that way...
I keep going back to the Halo 2 E3 Gameplay trailer. The scripted path the driver followed made it a BETTER driver. I think the driver should just:
a) Drive to your objective
b) Stop/pursue when you're shooting something
c) Evade enemy fire.
d) REALLY evade cliffs. And walls.
I'm not sure if this would be easy to program, but I just wonder if bungie could implement this?

Oh god, the Halo 3 AI drivers were horrible. They would sit their and drive into rocks and scrape against walls. They also suck at gunning to.

So you would have a choice, drive safely and have a bad gunner who didn't do squat, or shoot and run into walls.

lol one of the best times i had was playing on the covenant watching a warthog with all 3 odsts on it. the passenger had one of the spartan lasers and the marine on my mongoose had the other laser. freaking awesome. watched the ODST hog kick some serious ass. it seems they only drive poorly when you are in the vehicle.

They must think "The chief is here! I need to impress him with my risky driving skills!" and then fail.

put it this way, the AI have better intelligence when shooting rather than driving

Sounds about right. They aren't bad gunners. Well, they're not great, but they're not bad. They get the job done, especially if they have a laser, rocket, or fuel rod cannon.

Death to rank junkies.

Now if they would realize they didn't have to fire in bursts when they're on a Warthog/Prowler I would be fine.
