*falls to his knees* my baby is back! *nussles his magnum*

From the sounds of it their just laying new graphics on the code, so no hijacking, no driving wraiths and warthogs and tanks fear nothing other then the driver being killed. or are they adding things like that to the code?

if so its kinda disapointing but for some reason I want to coop a buddy kill him over and over let his nades pile up, then park my warthog on them, chuck my nade hop in the hog and fly off into the sunset with update graphics causing me to seaziure.

Tragically, this is most likely the case. If it makes you feel any better, since they probably haven't fixed the code for the marines' ability to drive, this means that you won't acidentally get killed by any marines using a Wraith.

They said they would fix the engine up a bit. I am expecting usable energy swords, driveable wraiths, and the Warthog splatter glitch to be fixed

I wouldn't count on it. Its going to be exactly the same. A drivable wraith or usable sword could potentialy ruin the game experience. It might make it better, but I don't think they'll do it.

An usuable sword would mean a big change, not a bit. They'd have to limit it somehow. It does EMP damage. It has infinite use. You can't melee with it (Elites have some sort of lunge thing, they never actually press a button to melee). And it would need a reticle.

However, it is likely that they fixed the sword glow (a.k.a the death of Stealth Elites), as seen in the trailer.

But drivable wraiths are certainly possible in a small time frame (just change the driver seat to Ghost), although unlikely. Then again, the Wraith's mortar is somewhat underpowered and it will feel like some of Halo: Reach's explosives: not an instant kill.

As for the Warthog splatter, ever notice how you start sliding when you get in it? That's because driver wakes physics.
