i read that ordinary bullets dont really hurt the tank, that you have to use rockets or grenades or the turrets, etc. i also read that yes the tank is jackable. im pretty sure bunige said that somewhere. cant remember where. supposedly you can jack the tank from like all 4 sides.i think bungie said that they were toying with front direction boarding animation with the MC or elite grabbing the turret and swinging himself onto the tank and then ripping open the co-ckpit and throwing the occupant out. but of course no one will belive me because i dont have any proof. but thats what i read. and i said they were toying with the idea.

They said everything that is driveable is jackable, so yes the tank will be jackable.

The tank should be destructible but within reason; only heavy explosives, rockets, fusion cores, fuel rods, or perhaps a well placed gas tank shot. But getting sniped out from across an entire level (Ex. Sidewinder) by the little jerk who lives only to hit the -blam!-pit of the tank all day with his sniper...that sucks. Since when does a tank have an exposed -blam!-pit? I know bungie did it CE to give peeps a chance in MP, but if it is now destructible, then there is no use for such an archaic exposed driver's -blam!-pit.

edit: the filter can't pick up bad words yet it hits on c ockpit. Why?

They should have it like this if you damage the tank with a grenade then it should dent in like if you were to hit it in one of the tread gaurds they should dent in and effect the drivablity of the tank. Or you could shoot the treads with a rocket and blow them off so the person would get out and it would turn into a stationary turret (a really powerful one)

they would have to do someting about stealing tanks because you could sprint and go as fast as a tank then jack the tank and damage i think just a few chips here and there but rockets and mabey stationary guns would be the only thing that would show major damage on it (such as looseing a tred)

in the multiplayer demo, the warthog took about 6 missiles to kill.

it seems to me that bullets are worthless against a warthog. destructible doesnt mean crappy and easy to die. you just kill less if everyone shoots at you.

since the tank is a tank and the warhog is a jeep, lets assume the tank takes 12 missiles to kill. how in the hell ware you going to kill it wih bullets? get 12 dual weilding perople to shoot at it!

i guess this simply means, everything hurts the tank, just dont expect to kill it with bullets.

and the tank is jackable. from either side, as where you get in, or from the turret. its in an update. and sure, you can sprint to a tank... that doesnt mean it doesnt have a really big gun.
