Is there a way to kill enemy hijacker on warthog?

Games Halo Infinite
1

I’m new to Halo franchise and Halo Infinite. I’ve searched for a while but can’t find a simple answer to the following questions:

  1. When my gunner (if I’m able to get one) is hijacked and the enemy sits on the gun shooting my own team, is there way for me to switch from driver to kill the gunner?

  2. If the enemy enters the passenger side, is there a way to kill them instead of waiting to be killed or allowing the hijack?

P.S. Feel free to add any other tips & tricks.
P.S.S. Thank you to those who actually answer the horn & jump on as gunner / driver.
Thank you forum.

My favorite way to kill a hog hijacker is to play a little game of musical chairs. The end goal is trying to get the hijacker in the driver’s seat while I pummel him to death in the passenger seat. :joy:

So it was you that’s been pummelling me the last few days :rofl: :joy: It’s happened to me a few times on btb recently

Thanks. So, if I’m the driver and my gunner gets hijacked I can:

  1. Switch to the passenger seat & hope the enemy switches to driver, then pummel them.
  2. Bail

No other options? On the controller settings for vehicles one of the buttons is labelled “trick”. For what vehicle ? or items is that button used for?

Thanks again

No. Your only options are to:

  1. Get out of the hog and shoot/melee them. Without a driver they are a sitting duck.
  2. Drive the hog off of a cliff. You’ll lose -100 points for a self-destruction, but you or a teammate will earn a kill if the hijacker has been damaged.
    • If you have a grapple you can bail and climb back up.
  • Seat hop to the passenger seat. Without a driver they are a sitting duck. And if they seat hop to try and drive away, you can shoot and melee them.

No. The passenger seat is the seat of power when it comes to hijacks. Either:

  1. Get out of the vehicle and find another way to kill/disable the vehicles.
  2. Or seat hop and try to take the passenger spot.

Yeah, pretty much. There isn’t much you can do against a hijacker besides playing musical chairs or hijacking them back. You can drive somewhere secluded or off a cliff to force them out, alternatively you can try flip your hog. Hijacking is in a pretty good place rn I’d say. It’s easy enough that there is actual counterplay to vehicles without ruining the vehicle sandbox by making them too weak.

For the ghost and wraith it raises the front of the vehicle for a moment, kind of like a wheelie. This allows you either climb over obstacles you usually would be barely blocked from going over, and in the ghost it can help you splatter jumpers if you time it right.

For the chopper it acts as a hard brake, letting you stop and stay in place very quickly. I think the intention is to help someone roll up to a spot and quickly post up kind of like a stationary turret.

No idea what it does on the hogs and mongooses though.

Thanks! I’ve tried it on the hog and mongoose and nothing happened.

Suggestion: Add “Ejection Seat” to the passenger side vehicles. That would by hysterical.
