Marine Guns Warthog in Warzone

Sun Jul 10, 2016 5:25 pm

Something pretty cool on the front page of the Halo subreddit.



I think the way this works is that the initial base marines are capable of jumping into vehicles. He does get a few kills in the clips but I doesnt seem to award him a wheelmen or a kill.

Also as expected the Marines accuracy is ridiculous.

Bullets sent me this via text today. I found it hard to believe. Wonder if there's an easy way to get it to happen. I could see it being useful for gungooses as well

Actually looks fairly straightforward according to this other clip I found.

Strategy wise I guess for the enemy armory push it could prove semi useful? I think this is mainly something I would do in solo Warzone, keeping him alive until I can spawn a gauss and then see what happens from there.

anyone know how many of those marines spawn. I could imaging them being extra strong if you could have say 3 hogs running with a marine in each. although only one headshot to kill them will make it a very short run against a good team.

This must be something they added in with the new update? Because I've never seen this before even though I have tried to get marines on my gungeese.

I find this very amusing. I'm surprised someone managed to pull it off and the marine wasn't instantly headshotted off.

It's gotta be the initial apex Marines. I just played a game and they die almost instantly.
