1. Covenant Shadow.
2. Ability to go straight with the tank's turret behind you.
3. 3 new warthogs.
That's all I can think of. #2 is what most people I forgot. I remember reading it in EGM about a couple of years ago. Name stuff that has been confirmed, in any magazine, by mouth of Bungie, that people might have forgotten.

Sprinting and the ability to shoot lights out

Covenant crawling on walls - refer to the same EGM for information about this

How do they know the tank would do that if they haven't even announced a tank? And how would you aim/ know where you are going? That is, unless it has two seats.

I'm really looking foward to the latter.

I won't forget about sprinting. Shoot lights out was in the same article about the tank. I believe the tank has been mentioned in a weekly update, which Bungie said that it can take certain amounts of damage, such as bending the armor, destroying the turret. May not be confirmed, but it was mentioned.

Well... I think it would be an awesome idea to make the tank a two person vehicle... it makes sense, there are 2 seats.

Covenant crawling on walls? Holy (Bad word here)!!!!

That's got to be the creepiest thing I've ever heard. Just imagine, you think it's safe, when all the sudden you're slashed down by a flaming ninja-like Elite that was hanging on the wall. Dang that's creepy.

"go one direction with tank turret pointing another"... < Incorrect. The only way for this to happen is to have a gunner and a driver, like modern tanks. While the driver has his own controls, he has no control over the weapons systems. That's the gunners job. If Halo 2's Scorpion is the same with some minor graphic tweaks, then this will be impossible.

A new manual brilliantly written by Frankie.

that's not necessarily incorrect. plenty of games allow you to control the turret and tank's dirrection independently. if they're really adding the feature, they can edit the controls easily enough.

I can't wait for that, as well as some people's quotes from last year's halo 2 content contest, in which people would write a saying that can be put in halo 2

in some games you can hold the grenade for a couple seconds so that it blows up about when it hits instead of bouncing around first. that might be something cool,

I'd rather err on the side of caution about weird new features though, I don't want too many new/weird controls.
