Bungie said zanzibar was design for three vehicles. They only showed the ghost and the warhog. So this rises two questions into my mind .first, what is the thrid hidden vehicle in zanzibar and two, can you customized what vehicles you want in zabzibar?
Any ideas?

if it's a banshee than it will be hella easy to capture the flag. (at least i think so) so i'm pretty sure it's not a banshee

ATV sounds good for defendes they could chase the guy with the flag and get to the middle faster to set up a defence

I never heard Bungie say that. ATV sounds most reasonable. Or something we dont know about!?

my first guess was that the minigun was the third vehicle. and that makes a lot of sense, kinda like how the shade was a vehicle... kinda.

but lets assume im wrong... no flying vehicles. maybe the wraith tank! hell yeah! itd be cool to shoot arching mortar super plasma shots thru the windmill.

edit-
you can use a one handed gun while driving the atv.

you can probably use the ATV in most levels, it would be boring if ti was only in one level, don't you think?

Remember, "designed for" doesn't mean "exclusive to".
You can probably put any vehicle in any map (except for non-vehicluar maps, of course).

Zanzibar is pretty tight, and there's a base over the enemy flag. The (now destructible) Banshee would be a HORRIBLE choice on this level- the ceiling is also pretty low so you'd be very vulnerable to fire. The Wraith and Scorpion tanks would be fun, because the offense could try to pound their way in every round, and when the tanks finally went down to rockets, the rest would be mayhem. I'd love to play that.

The ATV would be a most excellent choice. Fast, maneuverable, think of the possibilities: fan jumping, trying to speed into the base on what normally serve as footpaths (it could make it...), not to mention the long, romantic rides on the beach. Aaaah....

The final choice would be the Covenant Shadow. Since it's roughly equal to the Hog, it should fare pretty decent in the level.

Can i have a link to this information about only 3 vehicles. Because bungie is proud of having all the vehicles in single player in multiplyer also and thats good thing. I think it should be like in halo where all the vehicles were on the vehicle maps. Maybe you can customize it, i don't know but I don't think that they would have only a few vehicles on each level. I think they should have all the vehicles on all the levels except if the level is small like Zanzibar. I haven't seen teh tank on that level so i don't know how much room it would take on the map but i think that Zanzibar has more room for more than three types of vehicles.

Hey Gspawn,do you got o the gamefaqs.com Halo 2 forums. because there is a person that with the same name and your post "sound" like him.

I think you can choose the vehicles.

  • 07.20.2004 4:23 PM PDT

They want the 'Halo.' But I tell them: 'No! No Halo! For you, only the 'Frenzy'! The 'Frenzy' and maybe some 'Munch'

It is a banshee. In some of the shots released at E3, you can see plasma being shot from above, even though you can't see the banshee. Look at the background of the shot with the spartan with the energy sword facing the two elites; you can see a rocket hog exchanging fire with something flying above. Also, in the shot with the elite on the ledge with the sword, you can see some plasma streaking down from above. Sorry about the lack of links. I'm too lazy.

Go to kikizo.com and search halo 2, go to the video section and you'll find two zanzibar videos, pic the second one, the one showed at the booth. You'll also find other goodies in the video joe staten didn't show in the demostration video, for example, he used the binoculars and looked at his own feet (MC's feet), go check it out.

well if the 3rd vehicle is a banshee, bungie should put some more stationary weapons.

I would like a banshee for defense. That would be cool. You could like, carpet bomb the intruders with fuel rods.

It would still have a purpose. You could get into the base fast, but you can't carry the flag in the banshee and would still need to open the gate to get the flag out fast. Also on that level with the rocket launcher the Banshee would always be a target.

Why are you guys saying that Zanzibar is small when it is huge? I just thought I should correct you guys.
