Few things on the Vehicles of Multiplayer:

1) does anyone know that, while driving forward in a Ghost, you can push "A" to punch your front end up? This works well for launching off small hills - in BLood Gulch, i can scream towards the enemy base and launch myself up top to piss people off. Plus, it works well for control while advancing on hilly terrain - your front end won't dig in and flip you around and slow you down.

2) who agrees that a first-person perspective option for vehicles in Halo 2 would be cool? i think, not as a TACTFUL option, but more an ENTERTAINING one, that the 1st person view would be worth it, especially for the Ghost and Warthog - even the tank!

3) Slug rounds for the Shotgun. How COOL would that be? you could use it for effective vehicle destruction and give the Shotgun more...ranged capabilities.

4) also, in Halo 2, will the Warthog really be destructable?.....

I think Bungie will keep the 3rd person view for driveing vehicles because it makes it easier to manuver and more aware of surroundings. The passaners and gunner will probbly get 1st person view just like HAL0 1. Besides why would they change it there has been no problems with the views before

Yes, I think almost everyone knows that if you press and hold the A button down, you'll do a wheely. And I'm sure that the vehicle cameras will stay the same.

I knew about the A-button.. It can indeed come in handy sometimes.
About first person view: I really don't care, but it could be cool... I like to sit in the warthog's passenger seat just for the sense of speed.
I don't care about the slug rounds.
The warthog doesn't have to be destructable IMO, or else just stronger than the ghost/ banshee.

sounds good, i think master chief should be able to look back when hes piloting a vehicle, that way he can see whos chasing him. i think it would be cool if he could do like a drive-by in certain vehicles also. and i never knew about the "A" button, sounds cool
