I was wonderin how to get up to sniper rock, I have tried with a ghost and just can't do it. Also i read that to get on the rock you have to "strafe", what does that mean? Second, I have seen a ton of movies in which people somehow explode all these gernades (lyin around a whart hog) and it goes flinging really, really far. How do they do it?!?!?!?!?

Hey anyone notice how the MP tank is diff from the SP tank? Ya in SP the hatch has a part that completely covers MC, but in MP it doesnt.
You would think that he would take damage if the tank was shot in SP ,and that he wouldnt in MP because he is open, but thats not the case...

the reason the MP tank has a cage instead of a mettle slab over the cock pit like in single player is so that the driver can be killed by the sniper rifle.

I know but then they should have taken out him being able to be damaged from shooting like the treads of the tank. I understand why the cockpit is open, but the damage is still there if you shoot other parts.

you do more damage by shooting the cockpit then shooting at the other
parts, eg. you can shoot the treads with a full clip of sniper rifle
and barly sratch his life points but if you use it on the cock pit it would kill him

Hey just a question why does the banshee explode and the entire body of it get deformed when it dies? I mean if you shoot it with like an AR then I guess i understand that at some point one of the buttets hits like a reactor or something, but why does the body deform to the side, instead of just exploding completely. The same goes for the other vehicles like the Ghost and especially the Wraith...

The ghost blows up, an deforms, has anyone seen a real plane get shot down, it blows up.... an crashes, or vice versa. Also, it doesnt die, it gets shot down stupid... The ghost blows completely up, leaving the more structured an sturdy frame, and the Wraith's side blows out in a certain spot. And nothing really blows up completely, y would it, unless it had a large nuclear reactor or somethin else big in it thats likely to make a large POP when it blows?

Well i meant by die it blows up. Or loses that health thing in the corner. And the ghost doesnt really blow up either. and i figure if it has reason to blow up a little then it should blow up a lot...

How long have u had Halo, it its been any time @ all, u would know that a Wraith is a Mortar Tank, and if u dont know what that is, its a Covenant Tank, an if u dont kno what that is, well, u dont deserve to own a copy of Halo.

today my friend and I were playing assault on the control room and some idiot of a marine jumped into the abyss(after my friend drove it halfway off the bridge).My friend then tried to fix it and fell out causing the tank to go under the bridge with a tread stuck half way above the bridge.Then we tried to flip it and it moved away but not out.

Not really a glitch, just stupidity:

In Assault on the CR, the stupid Marine who takes the Ghost ran me over about three times in a row, me instantly each time. Finally, after he took the Ghost a fourth time, I stuck a plasma to it and killed the 'tard off. Loser...

Hey dude we dont know if MC will have a new suit, of if those elites WILL climb walls. Btw i dont think those are diff warthogs i think they are the same one just with diff stuff put on.

In reply to: Re: facts and wishes for Halo 2

halo is going to be tight no matter what. I think that they should bring back the old classic maps, bg, sw...and definetly redo them (destructable landscapes). Oh yeah, does anybody know if the MP is going to have destructable landscapes?

Hey cow guy, acyually we do know almost all of the things that diablo said, like the new suits, the climbing, all that stuff you mentioned, I have a mag with all of that info, except the human planes, the sniper zoom and the unlockables.

: Hey dude we dont know if MC will have a new suit, of if
Actally we do know its a new suit. they have said that from near the begining
: those elites WILL climb walls.
and bungie have said that the AI will be about 3x the AI of halo and the covenant will be able to hide behind objects and will stop firing if they r hidden or u r.
: Btw i dont think those are
: diff warthogs i think they are the same one just with diff
: stuff put on.
Fair enought about this point. they r the same model warthog but they r better. the snow one has tracks like a tank or sno mobile. the jungle one has camo. the personel carrier has a cage (for lack of a better description) on the back for troops and there is the good old normal one. Diablo11 was right about all the stuff here. new covenat vehicles and i have read that there will definetly be more flying vehicles but dont quote me.
But in facts Diablo11 said that the AI will be able to drive vehicles and not be dumb like in halo. I have just had an eye oppening moment while playing halo. on attack on the controlle room i had the tank with 4 soldiers riding on it. i also had 2 ghosts fallowing and giving me support. they were being opperated by the so called dumb AI. This was the first time i had seen it happen and i have been playing halo for well over a year now. It was great. i have no proof cause i dont have the ability to connect it up and take pictures but it really did happen. i dont know if it has happened to anyone else. only thing i that they fallow u so if u get out the tank they will come right up to u and end up running u over. happened quite a few times. so they really are not dumb in a way.

i think most of us have seen marines driving the ghosts, though they aren't very good, and have a tendency to run you over. They like the one the elite gets in on aotcr

In reply to: Re: facts and wishes for Halo 2

I have had many mariens fly in ghosts and stuff but i think he means for the AI to driv warthogs and tanks. I also have found news that the marines will flip vehicles for shelter from gunfire, you will be able to peek around corners and put your gun away to run faster, there will also be a 4x4 quad and more than 1 new covenant vehicle. If you go to bungie's main site (bungie.com) and click halo 2 faqs you can find out a lot more.

In reply to: Re: facts and wishes for Halo 2

It's happened before to me, too, but its usually just one marine in a ghost. Also, if the ghost flips over they don't get back in. Rarely, do the marines ever get in the ghost. It only happens a few time which is why the AI needs improvement.
