if they added another hog they should bring back the one in halo 1 pc with the rocket launcher on it. Also the fact that you can die allows the hog to be balanced. if you could never die in a vehicle you get battlefeild 2 where the strength is in vehicles. Remember they have to have some level of balance in gameplay so suggestions about making a warthog harder to die in is useless. If it becomes a weapon of mass killing or spawn camping then they wont put it in.

don't get me wrong, I love the hog... but its kinda boring. ya kno... everything thing else we can drive we can shot from as well. Helll just give the hog a turret right int he middle of the hood for the driver and we'd be good to go. It drove me nuts how easy it was to get killed driving one of those in halo 2 as well...


Personaly, I think we should keep the hog, but introduce another land based vehicle thats got more armor or perhaps better yet, something that can outrun a rocket, say an updated version of the ATV or a dunebuggy like vehicle (with NOS for a boost).

No to everything. Yeah, let's put Nitrous Oxide on EVERYTHING!

You can just not use the hog.

Well.. Thoughts, eh?

- The hog is coming back, regardless...
- The whole 'Driver can shoot' somewhat defeats the purpose of having the warthog.. Then it becomes "One man to every vehicle".. .Where's your team spirit?
- NOS? This is Halo, not Need for Speed. Or street-racing, for that matter.

"Thoughts are the shadows of feelings; always darker, emptier, and simpler."

That hood gun is nice but what about an Assault Rifle that is attatched to a pipe so that ammo can go to it. That way the Passenger has some front protection.

You need to go far far away.........the warthog (especially the gauss) is the best thing in halo.

I also feel the Hog is fine the way it is. Any changes should be different variations of the warthog. It would be cool to have a warthog which can carry 6-8 people in the back. Instead of where the gunner seat is, there is a row of seats. Sure you would be an easy target, but the advantages of mass transport speak for themselves

Reasons to keep the warthog:

* It's versatile
* It's fast
* It can carry 3 people
* The driver and passenger are protected from everything but snipers and rockets, and snipers are likely to miss when the vehicle is moving at hight speeds
* The chaingun can take down a tank if the driver can out manuver the cannon
* Rockets with the passenger in a chaingun hog make it a great anti-infantry and anti-vehicle platform


Reasons to get rid of it:









no tank should ever be defeated by the chain cannon... the only reason someone should be able to out manuever a tank cannon (in any vehicle )is because the guy driving the tank had seizures.

reasons to get rid , replace or impove the warthog:

boring for the driver and passenger

way too easy to die due to the lock on feature.. give the hog a boost or some sort of homing disruption.

it is not protected from every weapon besides the rocket and snipers... i've taken down hogs with pistols, needlers, shotguns and my own 2 fists when I've boarded a chump.

I love the Hog, but it needs differences in speeds to atleast help with avioding rocketts. give it a 2 speed transmission... 1st gear is the one we all know and love, and the second is an overdrive so we can outrun a rocket... atleast for a short period of time, so we can cut behind a wall or jump out in time...

the overdrive could be just like a boost as well... the hog's electric engiines will overheat after a short period, and automatically shift back to 1st gear.

I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.

Give me the turret in the Gauss Hog. That is all i need. The MAC gun on the Hog (in my opinion) is the best weapon in H2. It is perfectly balanced. Long range capabilities but no zoom. Massive damage induced but semi-slow firing speed. Powerful yet hard to aim if not skilled. I love it. In fact, Bungie should make a weapon that is similar to the turret on the Gauss Hog. If you agree with me say so.
