It would be easy to pull someone out of a banshee [conviniently forgets about the sharp twists and turns and air resistance] - their legs dangle out the back anyway.

It would be cool to be hanging off the banshee.

If it takes you a second to get into the hatch then it'll take you a while to get control of the plane. So that might mean it would fall with the guy you just ejected for a bit. So he might then be able to re-hijack the craft. But that might be a bit too much.

It would be soooo cheap but it would look cool as hell. You jump on the scorpion with dual SMGs and fill the driver with lead. You then rip the dead body out, throw it to the side and hop in. DA-DA-DA-DAAAAAA! BOND MOVE -blam!-!

I think you should only be able to steal vehicles where its possible. it would be funny as hell to steal a covies bus fully loaded and drive it off a clif if there is one. All the passengers wouldnt know what happened.

Guy on wing of Banshee: "No! Don't drive at that tank, it's gonna shoot us! Jimmy, buddy, don't shoot! I'm still on this thing! Noooooooo!" BOOM!

Probably, but only plasma shades, cause human ones are ones that you stand with.

if you can easily board the tank b/c its going so slow then that seems unbalanced to me because then the tank wouldnt be so effective

In multiplayer the scorpion's hatch it made out of a metal grate with gaps in it. You shoot through the gaps.

If there's passengers on the vehicle, eg. sitting on the side of the Scorpion tank, then they should be able to shoot the hijacker off, even if the driver is not able to do much about it. Or a gunner on the turret of a warthog shooting a guy off the bonnet.

This reminds me of Sgt. Johnson with the SR ridin' on the tank.

Elite trys to get on:"Oh no you don't!" BAM!

It is possible, it just might not be in the game. The player might simply kick the hatch open and hammer away on the driver. Duurrrrr!

OK, another stupid question:

what if, you're in the rocket hog, fire a rocket across the biggest MP map, and while the rocket is in mid air you get jacked. do u still get the kill if you hit someone or will it give it to the one who's in the gunner seat at the point of kill? ahh who cares.
