although we have all see the concept art and the renders theres not to much proof but my guess is that if they made it and rendered it it might as well should be in the game(would make a great flag snatching vehicle)

I haven't herad anything said of it in a long time. I finid it strange how much info they've given out about it (posting it in the renders section, showing an early sketch with atv's, etc. etc.). A little too much info to cut it? or will it be a more unfortunate example of the banshee or the flamethrower from halo 1?

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.

I would like it to be the only vehicle you can drive while carrying the flag. The could place a flag holder on the ATV so that the flag is always visible as you drive.

Look at the screenshots of the Shadow in Halo 1... ;)

Anyhow, there's been nothing to say that it's been cut, so I wouldn't assume that it has. To me, the ATV makes the least sense as far as vehicles. It's a little four wheeler, and the Chief weighs a ton. Just strikes me as a weird vehicle to add to the game.

Well that sounds good, but this isn't Command and Conquer or Warcraft or something ;) Unless they take MP MC's vs. elites very seriously and give each side their respective vehicles . . . . that'd be interesting! ghost vs atv, shadow vs wharthog . . . . cool!

I think bungie learned from halo ( the banshee) and will probably do all it can to get them in there. What i am really woried about is the transport hog not makin it but that is a different thread. Yea but I hope you can drive with the flag atleast on some vehicle like ATV just have it on the back like those little antenna thing you sometimes see on moto' bikes and other atvs

I think the atv will be in halo 2, but the question is will you be able to shoot while your on it?

[color=lime]I think A.T.V.'s would be an awsome vehicle shishka! There are many situations where it could come in handy. its very fast so it could mow down people really easy, AND its an awesome vehicle for a sniper. imagine you are sniping people and they decided to try and get into range to take you out with battle rifle, you can just hop on your ride and get to another sniping point out of range from them and finish them off. OR someone who has cloaking and rocket, you can get over to enemy side quick, get off and begin your infiltration to the flag[/color]

The shadow is an other example, but they did a fairly good job of quietly letting that vehicle "die." One, and only one magizine shot of it (and a very cursory movie role) was all we saw. On the other hand, i think fans absolutely loved the flamethrower (and swords and machette!) and the banshee was a given. . . can you imagine the suprise of that not making it in? (and on the box cover too!).

And you make an excellent point . . . . (ack! top heavy! top HEAVY!).

::the horrible image of a user mod, in which a bunch of MC'ers motor around on tricylces and unicyles, all looking unbalanced and utterly ridiculous, pops into my head::
