I think that would be an awesome idea, in Halo 2 (campaign) i fly around in a banshee, get close enough to an elite's banshee get out and hijack the Elite's banshee, this is fun, but i would love to see vehicle to vehilce boarding in Halo 3. Emagine riding with your friends in a full Hog, the passenger can then jump onto a flood/covie controlled spectre, hog, ghost, etc bash away the driver, kick out the gunner, and knock the passenger out.

How bout flying a banshee and getting close enough to another banshee, hopping out, grabbing on to the wing with your hand while the rest of your body flails wildly, grabbing with the other hand, and opening the cockpit and let the AI/player fall to their doom?

For me this would be amazing and great to do in highspeed chases.

(and on a quick note, during H3's campaign, while your boarding a vehicle, don't let your teammates shoot at you!!!!!)

you can do that already, if you are fast enuf pop out a ghost when near a warthog and jump on...if you miss youll end in the ghost again..but stil a good idea, i can imagine me jumping from warty to anouther

u can already do that with banshees you get in front and exit and pess x quickly really fun to do on the last level

  • 06.19.2006 2:25 PM PDT

I just wish the bording for the driver's side for specter and warthog was different. Like you pull them out but then you have to kill the person unlike the goust. But this is a vert good idea.

What would be nice is if, when you jump in the gunner seat of the warthog, but the opponent is driving, you could climb up and knock the driver out, without having to exit the warthog.

Sounds fun, doubt you're gonna get it though.

Btw, has anyone noticed that you can't board a Warthog the same way in H2 as the Brute did in the H2 demo?

yeah i dont really like the way u board it in H2, its just too....sloppy for MC, he just drags the guy/covie out and jumps backwards to them, we cant get in the hog and drive away like in the ghost... and as for the Brute Hijacking i really wanted that, but it got left out :'(

Imagine three or four guys jumping on board of an enemy pelican from their own pelican and planting explosives before jumping off or something sweet like that.

That's something I've always wnanted to do. Maybe thats the new gameplay related features for vehicles that Frankie was saying two updates ago... But then again maybe not.

And about boarding one vehicle from another... they'd have to make it harder to accomplish than regular boarding so that it would be more rewarding.

good idea. They should have it so that the passenger can only do it (while your team is driveing) but have it so that you have to hold down X for a certain amount of time to board, bash the the enemy's head in, then take control of the vehicle

Ghosts would become great for that, as they're fast and manuverable, great for getting up alongside of the target vehicle.

I think it would be awesome if you could ride on the side of a buddy's banshee and then jump off and board another. Kind of like banshee surfing, but you don't have to worry about falling since you're hanging on.
