The hog used to be good

Just found this gem:

Halo 3 beta hog ownage!

Getting in the hog now is a death sentence I rarely get more than 2 or 3 kills in it. The gun is weak and very inaccurate and simply cannot stand up to a couple of DMR’s let alone a whole team of 8

Tone up the warthog please. Maybe not to the levels it was in the Halo 3 beta because that thing could stomp over and entire map and rack up 20+ killing sprees, although it was fun when you were doing the killing :smiley:

I don’t really get why people keep asking for buffs. It takes more punishment then the reach hog and i get plenty of kills in the turret.

I laughed so much at that video.

The hog not only has -Yoink- health but it also flips all over the place just by touching a pebble on the ground.

As somebody who would be the default driver of a hog back in H3 and Reach and understands how to operate the six pedals that are on the warthog. I can say with confidence that this warthog is not in fact a warthog but a -Yoink–hog

Hog in H3 Beta was tad bit too powerful, in original game, it was perfect.

Back then, the vehicle was to be afraid of if the driver+gunner combo was skilled. Now warthog is joke, and only used as a taxi to reach a certain place or weapon, because most of the maps are filled with power vehicles.

Full speed skateboard over a pebble bad? D;

The vehicles do need a buff. Why so weak? :frowning: It makes killing those vehicles users allll the more satisfying to kill. Maybe operator helps it for those who want to use vehicles? That’ll work :slight_smile:

I’m in agreement personally - The poor chain-gun hog just seems so… meh. I don’t know what it is exactly, but every time it’s used it rarely seems to make much of a difference - evidenced perhaps by the fact that rarely do I see people using the damn things (and I play BTB mostly) - you see the Gauss hog occasionally, tanks, mantises and banshees fairly often, but hardly ever the humble warthog - a shame really I think.

The sound on it is so weak. It sounds like some really small off road vehicle. There’s no bass to it is the problem. It needs to sound beefier

Not to mention all the players getting power weapons just for sitting around.
