One of my favorite things about Halo is its vehicles. I don’t expect this to be a feature anytime soon, but I think it would add extra depth and flair to vehicles if you had the option to use them from a first-person perspective. Seeing the rendered interior of a scorpion or a hog would be awesome. It would make playing the campaign a little more immersive for those that enjoy that type of thing. Maybe even have it be a scoring skull since this would make vehicles more challenging. I would also love to be able to go through the cargo hold of a pelican, press x to enter the cockpit, and instead of immediately going to third person watch the animation play out in the first person and take off. In multiplayer maybe have this be an option for custom games, so it forces everyone to be on the same playing field and you can make a more realistic hardcore game type. I know it’s not classic Halo, but it would be a fun optional addition. Would anyone else be interested in something like that?
I don’t mind having that feature. That’s something I’ve always wanted since Halo CE. I definitely want to have a first person gunner because it can give me an angle to see in a certain way that a third person can’t.
I would love to see this become a thing. I bet 343i’s artists will be going to great lengths to ensure each vehicle’s details are as perfect as can be. A first person view would allow players to thoroughly appreciate their work.
While I think it’s cool, but coming from someone who plays a ton of Forza and uses the Warthog often… the first person view out of that thing is atrocious. It’s near impossible to drive that way I personally think. So I think people would try it out if they put it in, but then quickly go to 3rd person again from how insanely difficult it is to drive.

I agree
It would lend to the immersion and would be a phenomenal feature. I vote yes.
Sounds like a great idea, however how would it even look inside? I feel like it would look kinda weird.

Just like this, it’s wonky.

First Person view in vehicles would be incredibly immersive for the campaign, that would be sweet! As for multiplayer I cant see myself using it as it would be a disadvantage as far as seeing incoming threats.

Imma be real with you chief, that kinda looks good. Emphasis on kinda. I think the 3rd person camera looks better for situational awareness. It would be nice to have the choice to go first person honestly.
Kinda like battlefield.

It’s definitely doable, and in Halo where you don’t need to really have a good “racing line”, driving first person isn’t terrible. Plus I doubt it would have the physics like Forza does.
Sounds good to me. I like features that don’t effect the gameplay. Would be awesome to see the inside of some of these vehicles.
Sounds like a neat addition. Especially for customs and machinema
Would be fantastic and give 343 a real ability to show off the graphics for the new game. Would lend to immersion and be something new and creative going forward.

I loved the Forza Hog and yes going third person in that vehicle in Forza is a must. I agree that driving in the first person is definitely harder, that’s why having it possibly be a scoring skull I think would be an interesting edition. In multiplayer have it be limited to customs and special game modes so your teammates aren’t purposefully putting themselves at a disadvantage. Game types in 100% first person with vehicles would be more hardcore because you have to rely on your teammates for callouts and to watch your back. Also, as someone else mentioned below it would be a neat addition for machinima.

Might be a little weird, but getting a cockpit view of all the vehicles would be neat. I’d imagine in the tank vehicles and other vehicles that a spartan doesn’t normally have a line of sight, you’d watch the animation of your spartan sitting in the cockpit from the first person before moving to the vehicles viewfinder, similar to battlefield.
