Well I'm sure we've all read the exciting news about the Warthog coming back, and I was just wondering, what changes would people like to see with the Warthog? Or maybe you don't want any changes, what do you guys think?

Halo's a hell of a drug.

the driver needs the ability to shoot with it if there's no passangers. At least let us drive with one hand (I know that's not military regulation) and shoot with the other. Obviously you couldn't shoot a rocket launcher, but maybe a pistol or smg.

They better put the rocket warty in like they did for the pc version. I liked that thing.

The Gauss warty is kooler, but i like shoving an rpg in the covies...u get the picture and horrible image that will scare u if u think about it too much.

Other than that, i love the warthog. It's been my favorite halo vehicle and i can drive it better than all my friends.

No changes in how it handles.

Hopefully it doesn't change too much. I hope if rockets can still lock-on that there will some kind of indication that someone is locked on to you. Such and the warthog will beep or something like that.

the driver should be able to shoot where the arrow is pointing, but only with a duel wepon so he can drive with the other hand.

Earth will never be the same...

every warthog should have like a turret or rocket luancher built into the passenger side so the passenger has more fire power like the person in the back.

That's a silly idea.

I for one would like to see in every vehicle, some kind of warning system for locked on rockets.

The warthog being able to shoot is a horrible idea if i say so myself. Think about it, theres a reason theres passenger seats and a gunner seat, its a team-play vehicle not a single man killing machine.

I am...whimsical today.

You don't need a gun, the Warthog itself can be used as a weapon.

Anyone else get annoyed when they were driving the warthog to pick up a buddy and one of the opposing team 'hi-jacked' the passenger seat... I think we aither need a pistol or an eject button to solve that...

I agree. Plus the controller configuration of controlling the warthog and trying to aim at someone in a different direction would be kind of a mess. I don't see it happening

It would be kinda cool to see some of the old warthog variations but i really wouldn't care. They should have the rocket hog like in the e3 demo though, that thing looked really cool. And i think they should put in the civi hog. Not for anything serious, just for fun. Atleast as an easter egg.

I like the idea. It should have 5 beeps and an icon like when you need to reload on the screen.

eject button preffered, i want to see my enemy skyrocketed into the air 10000000000000000000000000000000 feet, lol, that would be hilarious
also something that tells you when somethings locked onto you
no shooting in driving seat, that would feel too much like gta for me

It (and all other vehicles) should be fully destructable. Like you shoot the gas tank and it keeps rolling as a ball of flame, then explodes. You could shoot the wheel and it comes off and the warthog loses control. That would be awsome, and some better physics, and 1st person views from any seat in any vehicle.

You should be able to choose. Possibly by pressing the zoom button on the controller.

I'd want it flippable again like in halo 1. That really made for some level play where any man with nades could counter someone who got lucky and got a hog.

Otherwise in general the vehicle damage system needs revamping (hod included) so that the vehicle it's self has a threshhold of damage and it's destruction (while being driven) is not dependent on the death of the occupants before the hog will explode.

  • 06.19.2006 4:24 PM PDT

In general, I don't think vehicles should have to stop when you get out of them, thus giving you the ability to launch vehicles at enemies. Maybe something like tap X to jump out, hold X to stop and get out.

As for the Warthog, I think the H2 one is perfect. Excellent vehicle.
