Character Boarding in Halo 4?

Games Other Halo

I think it would be sweet to be able to get on larger enemies rather than assassinating them. This way, you can stick grenades on them, or just beat them down like a vehicle.

Here’s a video from PAX 2010 where they show a few things Reach didn’t get to implement. Character Boarding is one of those things. Personally, I think it would be awesome to be able to board Promethian Knights or even just Hunters. Not to mention, it would be pretty easy to add.

Yeah, I remember seeing the player do this to a Hunter. It’ll be a cool feature to add to the game.

Or maybe you can harness them and ride them around. Imagine riding a hunter into battle, shooting his fuel rod, and swatting grunts like flies! /sarcasm

But seriously I think it would be cool to assassinate hunters and other large enemies like this.

That would be really cool to do to a hunter or a Promethean. I would love to see this!

They should put watercraft in Halo 4.

I would very much like this feature, but it should take some amount of skill to be able to actually board the enemy besides just doing it with every enemy.

Strato-sentinel has been semi-confirmed. If its in there, i bet you ten internetz you can ride piggyback.

All I know is that the features in that video could/should be added in future iterations of Halo games.

Watching Master Chief board that Hunter… that was epic. That would be cool to feature, but then you may just break the said beings body just by your weight alone.

I think this was an early idea they had that evolved into assassinations.

Yep, everything in that vid evolved into something else in reach, except for the boat tho.

I think the boat even had some influence on the space fights. The physics and maneuverability, that is.
