Playing halo 'tother day, and at the start of flawless cowboy, when the dropship and 2 shees come along, I had an odd instance.

Id crossed the narrow bridge, took out one shee, and was about to shoot at the other when the elite just fell out. He went splat and died, and the shee landed.

The shee was fine, not destroyed at all. I was about to try and get in it, when I had a ***king power cut. So sodding typical.

Anyway, anyone else had that happen?

"I pledge to punch all switches, to never shoot where I could use grenades, to admit the existence of no level except Total Carnage, to never use caps lock as my "run" key, and to never, ever, leave a single BoB alive."

I have witnessed this occurence...I find it hilarious...

I've fallen out of banshees. Didn't get shot, just go into a verticle climb and for no apparent reason, just slide out and splat. It's happened about 2-3 times. I know I didn't hit the leave vehicle button. Left hand was on trackball and right was on arrow keys. Exit vehicle is the "E" key.

Yes, it happens, and as Zee Jolly Roger said, its hilarious. It's a small glitch in the game. Occasionally, an Elite in one of the banshees in the second level will not turn away from the wall. He will then directly into the wall. Well, since this is not supposed to happen, he is killed by having the nose of his banshee go through the cliff, thus his head also, and it kills him. Want to find out? Go to New Mombasa, and drive the banshee straight into the bridge between two of the lights poles. The MC will die usually.

You fall out of a shee if it hits a wall at too steep an angle, the game thinks 'oh, the vehicle is upside down and on the floor, so I should drop the Master Chief out'. Like when your hog flips over, or you crash your tank.

Or maybe the elite didn't want to give you another kill... Man Bungie makes good AI...

He didnt hit anything, thats the odd thing. He was about to make a strafing run at me, then just fell/jumped out.

Tbh, it wasnt a power cut, it was my fault for not topping up the meter. Had to be that bloody moment tho didnt it?

He's probably cursing himself for hitting 'e' by mistake.

Yeah, a trackball. I use this one.

It's very good for vehicle control. And my aim is not too bad either.

Probably. Elites aren't known for their superior intelligence...

Actually, if memory serves, Elites are supposed to be quite brilliant.

Lol, yeah that's definitely possible unless they're surrounded by other nades that you set off with the first.
