Hound Zero Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 the thing that annoyed me with reach and other halos was that if you shut down an enemy vehicle they would just leave it before you could hijack them...they they would kill you and get back in.....or you would get in it and they would kill you....what i am saying is the plasma shot should lock them in the vehicle so they couldn't get out until they had control of the vehicle again, excluding open vehicles like mongoose,warthog,ghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Makes sense to me...I also think that if you PP a Jet Packer, their jetpack should shutdown and they should fall. I dont think your idea would make the PP OP, it just makes sense that it would disable all functions including the ability to open the hatch and get out. I like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Makes sense to me...I also think that if you PP a Jet Packer, their jetpack should shutdown and they should fall. I dont think your idea would make the PP OP, it just makes sense that it would disable all functions including the ability to open the hatch and get out. I like Seems like the Jet Pack is powered by the suit, making the EMP useless against it. We only have half duration from Reach anyway. Further nerfs would make me cry...

Tallgeese Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 haha I know Ryu, but logically speaking, even if the jet pack is powered by the suit, the jet pack itself still needs to maintain an electrical charge to function, so if a PP were to hit it, it would cease functioning at least for a bit. I agree it has been nerfed since Reach, but unlike you I cant stand it, so if it gets shut down by the PP I would love to see a Jet Packer fall to his death lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTz Vplus2 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 The situation that the OP described never happened to me. Not even once. I don't think in a situation like that you can put the blame on the Plasma Pistol's EMP. If you're not a good enough player to know that you should take out the driver of a vehicle asap unless you're hijacking it, put the blame on yourself. And i do not mean hijacking while the vehicle is still affected by the EMP. This isn't an issue with the Plasma Pistol, this is an issue with common sense and skill.

Tallgeese Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Not necessarily, if you PP a tank in Reach, the driver can still get out. You cant shoot the driver out of a tank like you could in Halo 2 or even Halo 3. So I think the OP has a point, if you PP a tank, banshee etc. the driver should not be able to open the hatch and get out of the vehicle.

iTz Vplus2 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 And what exactly stops you from blasting a couple of bullets into the poor guy's face while he is getting out of the tank or banshee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Nothing stops me from killing the guy...its just that fact that a PP shot knocks out all electronics, so in essence it should stop someone from being able to open the hatch and get out.

iTz Vplus2 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 I think that would make it a bit less interesting though. And on a Banshee for example, that vehicle is easier to steal imo when the pilot gets out of it. On a tank, i don't even think the hatch is opened with electronics, i think Spartans do it manually.

Tallgeese Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Hmm that could be, and your example of the banshee makes sense. Who knows...I still wanna PP a jet packer and see them fall to their death lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTz Vplus2 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Haha, yeah, that would be absolutely hilarious There would be so many legs breaking.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 That would be an awesome medal, PP stun, Fall to their Death medal would be sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 You...all...so cruel... The suits maintain their electric functions such as movement and hud due to EMP protection. Therefore, the Jet Pack would be intact! Tallgeese, could you break my legs for a laugh? *puppyninja eyes* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorB77 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 The thing is a warthog has no doors. So this should only apply to tanks and aerial vehicles. And EMP disabling jetpacks is a great idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 @Ryu: i will never EMP you bud...unless you make me very angry lol jk But if I could EMP a Jet Packer and make them fall..I will do that whenever I get the chance lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore, the Jet Pack would be intact! Tallgeese, could you break my legs for a laugh? *puppyninja eyes* That actually makes sense. So that'd mean that Spartans either wouldn't be able to move at all when hit with an overcharged Plasma Pistol shot, or would also still be able to use their jetpack. I'd prefer the 2nd version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
