I know when I get enough points I will build this load out

Some gun
plasma pistol
sitckie nades
active camo
Grenadier
Explosives

which is another thing to beware of as a driver... spawn points might now be the most dangerous place to be

I was essentially running that until I got Firepower... I still have stickies in my BTB loadout... :)

seems legit, will probably do the same thing when I got a higher Spartan Rank

I can't argue with that loadout, just wondering if the promethean grenades can be used to stop a vehicle dead in it's tracks. If not, then keep what works :D

so far ive hit the hog and a ghost with the pulse grenade with no effect. i dont think it affects the vehicle unless they are next to it when it detonates.

Brick is right. Spawn zones are alarming places in Matchmaking now. I've found myself veering away from them and nipping at the spawners trying to sprint to somewhere else.

I can see this affecting how we used to drive on Valhalla significantly, a more conservative driving style perhaps.

To compliment this, the sniper is no longer the vehicle take down weapon it was in Reach. Maybe a last shot or two on a burning vehicle, or strategic sniping that takes more skill and fineness (taking a gunner off a warthog turret, or taking the tank diver out by removing the hatch and sniping the guy) but you can't just plug 4 rounds into an engine block and expect a double kill.
