In Response To: Re: Halo [R]Evolved - Assault on the Control Room (CaptainRaspberry) : Actually, that's a perfectly good explanation. Tanks are very complicated : machines and take a lot of extra training to qualify for operating one. : That's why there are dedicated tank crews in the military: it's not a : position that can be rotated in and out. In fact, I think the old Prima : guide to Halo:CE points out that, without a Spartan behind the wheel, it : takes at least two people to operate a Scorpion. (I might be : misremembering; I know that's not the case in ODST, but maybe Mickey has : special training.) : In the original game, the AI couldn't drive human vehicles (only Ghosts... : which was really weird). Granted, with the AI boost from the Reach engine : it wouldn't be unthinkable, but except for the aforementioned incident in : ODST, I don't think I've ever seen an AI Marine get in a tank and drive : it, even in Reach. If you leave the Scorpion alone on "The : Package," I don't think the ODSTs start driving it. : However, it's an easy fix, even without the flipped tank. Just put a couple : of dead pilot models next to the tank. Thus we have an explanation: the : only crew certified to operate the tank is dead. In a modern battlefield : situation, that's enough to consider an armor like a tank out of action : for an operation. Still makes more sense to me that the tank landed upside down.
