Teabag Prevention Presents: How to Suck Less at Halo Vol.2 – Warthogs
So, thanks to the people at Bungie and our new loyal fans, Halo Fridays are here to stay. There’s something that I’ve been sitting on for a while, and that of course, is the Vehicles of Halo. What better way to start this series off than with Halo’s most iconic vehicle?
THIS WEEK: THE WARTHOG – TAKE YOUR HOG OUT FOR A SPIN!
TIP #1 – “I CALL DYING FIRST!”
Basically, when you get into a passenger seat of a warthog, you’re signaling to everyone that you either want to die, want to get somewhere faster at risk of death, or you’re a super-powered being with untold accuracy. (Believe it or not, those actually exist.) So here’s what you’re going to want if you call shotgun:
Shotgun
For those home invasion flag captures, a shotgun is not only a dangerous weapon to encounter while the enemy is moving fast, but as soon as they get off that Warthog, you’re in a room with a murderer.
Spartan Laser
It’s illegal to point a laser at an airplane pilot, so it’s perfectly fine for you to aim a Spartan Laser at a passing Banshee or Hornet.
Rocket Launcher
The perfect opportunity to get as close to Twisted Metal as you can on your 360.
Battle Rifle
This can be quite useful when injured enemies are running around. You might even be able to get yourself a killing spree. Also, be on the look out for enemies that your diver has failed to run over. Mistakes happen, but you can take care of ’em.
Don’t forget, ‘nades will always be useful.
TIP #2 – STUNTMAN MIKE, BUT MORE BADASS
The driver should always carry a back up weapon in case the Warthog blows up. Either this will happen, or maybe you’ll be so good that the only time you get out is when you grab the flag yourself and run it back to your base. You can always hope.
The reason for carrying a back up weapon as a drive, mainly, is for cover fire for your team mates. People always need it, and sometimes you’ll get 20 billion assists and 2 kills, but if you’re playing with the right people, they’ll appreciate you for it, like Ewoks.
TIP #3 – BE SMART, KILL FROM A DISTANCE
The Warthog is used best, as a whole, for covering fire rather than an assault vehicle. Drivers should always stick to the sides of the battle when in a firefight. This way, the attention is either drawn towards yourselves, or your fighting comrades. Either way, an enemy divided is an easy one to kill.
Gunners, always single out an enemy rather than spraying into a crowd. By doing this you kill people faster and its easier for your teammates on foot to see who’s weak and who’s not.
Things to Remember
- Save the driver, save the Warthog. In other words, if the driver dies, you’ll all die, jeez.
- Running people over can be more effective than gunning into a large crowd.
- If you don’t know who Stuntman Mike is, google Death Proof.
- Focus fire on one, move to the next.
- Shower at least every other day.
