There've been many threads where we've all argued about how boarding will work with Warthogs, right? We've all wondered if you can still board a Warthog, even if there's another driver, right? I overlooked this not once, not twice, but three times.

But boarding was a hoot. It makes those close up vehicle skirmishes all the more frightening. If you try to smash another player against a rock wall, there's always a danger he could jump up, board you and kill you with your own ride. We also watched a new phenomenon - the Rocket Hog parasite. Since you can board any part of a vehicle, a red player can board the rocket turret of a Blue-driven Hog. The blue player's only recourse is to abandon the hog, or drive the enemy rocket jerk somewhere he can do less damage - then of course they have to square off against each other. Results can be hilarious.
I haven't read this anywhere else. I apoligize if there was another thread already made, but I did not see it.
For the people who are too lazy to read that quote: you can jack the turret/passenger seat of an enemy-driven Warthog and they can still drive. I'm not sure if you all understand what this means, but I know I do. No longer in single-person Slayer will there be one-manned Warthogs. You can form your own teams in-game. Nice.
