Jacking was a pretty big thing when halo 2 came out and everybody likes that you are able to. But I have realized in my many games of Halo that while driving next to vehicles or having people on the back of my mongoose, It would be easily done and completely viable for my passanger or I myself to jack the adjacent vehicle. So I think vehicle to vehicle jacking should be implemented in Halo: Reach.
As a example lets say that I was on a mongoose with a passanger. This warthog has been ravagin our team the whole game. We get on the mongoose and find our selves right next to this warthog. My passanger now has the option of jacking the vehicle whether it be the driver or gunner. Now lets say he jacked the gunner, he would either be able to climb up and get in the gunner or he could face the mongoose and choose to get back on. If he chose the gunner, he could then climb to the front seat and jack the driver. Now one of two things could happen. He could succesfully jack this warthog and continue to drive it where ever he wanted, or the driver could press a button to defend himself in some way (I forgot to say it but this would also be the concept with the gunner).If the driver defends himself he could just turn around and pull him off and throw him to the ground or something along those lines and continue driving. Or maybe he could plant a plasma in the warthog before he dies and the grenade would explode killing whoever is in the warthog but only if a enemy is in the vehicle (To put a cap on those who betray.). Then you can expand on that story however you want to.
Another thing that seems to happen alot is ending up in a warthogs passanger seat. Now instead of being able to get in the passanger seat it would play out like this.
Instead of the option for the passager seat you actually hit out the driver. Expand on this like I did the last one.
So that is my idea, I think it could really work. What do you think of this?

[EDIT]
Just idea additions:
-You are the warthog driver and you have no gunner. You are chasing a flag guy and you can jump out and tip the mongoose he is on.
-You are a mongoose heading straight for a warthog or some other vehicle that is going to splatter you. You have the option to jump from the mongoose as if you were jumping on the ground. ( I know this one is a little absurd. lol)

you are a good translator
Idiot can be a hard language to learn, but once you get it down, everything becomes so clear! The whole world will make sense to you.

Jumping out of the back of a Pelican and jacking a Warthog would be badass.

Fail.

This would not be a great idea, can you imagine trying to run over that nub in the Mongoose only to be hijacked when it shouldn't happen?
It makes taking control of vehicles too easy.

You realize that going straight at each other would not justify a viable jacking therefore not being able to happen right?

I make a legitimate thread on the most logical choice for the next Bond actor, and you take that away from me by creating a parody thread indirectly connecting my thread to yours.

I hope your kids have bad influences and develop bad personalities. I wish this with all my heart.

I'm sure there would be some issues to this, but if a spartan can jump up and latch onto a ghost going 60mph, kick the driver out and sit down without even slowing down, this is certainly possible.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

If you are in the passenger seat of a Warthog, Hornet, Prowler, or Specter, you should be able to jack adjacent vehicles.

I know this is a little off topic but I think if your in a vehicle and you are about to die you could jump out and maybe get throne to the ground but you would loose your shields. So many times theirs been a missle coming for my worthog and I was 3/4 out of the gunner seat and I still exploded. Same with the hornet, Ill get out when I see a charging spartan laser and then die even though I'm practicly in the air. if i was able to jump clear it could have the same effect as bording.

  • 09.18.2009 4:34 PM PDT

Nice idea. I probably wouldn't be that in-depth about it. You know, just have something simple, but yeah it could work.

That death you're experiencing is the vehicle exploding in a large fireball. Try standing on a vehicle while someone Lasers it.

I Know that the vehicle is exploding but if I'm in a suit of armor from 500 years in the future with my sheilds at full I should be able to survive, maybe you could just get throne to the groud realy injured.

First in social ranked firefight campaign competitive and ODST goose splatters.

I like the idea of being able to hop from the passenger seat of a warthog onto another vehicle but I don't want the mongoose to have any extra power.. It's fun driving around in something that is relatively useless =).

Tell my 1129 mongoose splatters and my two montages they are relatively useless.

MONGOOSE

I know... not very creative...

You've got more than me. My 1,047 Mongoose splatters agree with you. MONGOOSE AIN'T USELESS!

I agree with the passenger seat thing. But, it would defeat half the purpose of Choppers. Getting out of the 'hog to kill the chopper who would normally tear you apart, or driving up to the scorpion in a mongoose and boarding it? No.

  • 09.18.2009 6:35 PM PDT

BOOM DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes.

Much easier then what I tend to do in H3, jump out, and mid leap latch onto a passing vehicle, not easy, particularly as 75% of the time, I end up back in my vehicle.
I like it.

  • 09.18.2009 7:02 PM PDT

insanely awesome idea. it would spice up vehicle combat!

I think so too.

  • 09.18.2009 9:34 PM PDT

As long as its kept simple, it would be cool. For instance, I do not like the idea of the victim being able to be able to defend himself.

  • 09.18.2009 9:40 PM PDT

i like this idea would help getting rid of the warthog thats spawn camping you

Yes if you are able to jack them.

I used to already do this all the time in halo 2...good times...

You could be next to a banshee, get out and board the one next to you and the dude u kick out falls to the ground lol...

I bet the majority of xbl halo players now didn't even play halo 2 on live much.
