In Response To: "I'd really love to see it done for real" (FrogBlast)
: Okay,
: So the thing I noticed when filming the hack video was that the banshee kept
: going, even after the elite was fried via the hack.
: If you watch the video, the banshee keeps going after the elite falls out,
: and lands well beyond where it would have fallen.

: So, clearly the banshee doesn't need a pilot to get within arm's reach of
: the master cheif. The following was done on a non-modded xbox, with no
: cheats...
: Getting the Banshee in the Maw
: Goal : Object overload the game to erase the banshee pilot.
: I had earlier experience doing this on level two to erase pilots, more info
: can be found here .
: Level two might be a good place to practice, since there are no time limits.
:
: Step 1 - Prepare the following areas by object overloading at the lift.
: This video shows where to stand so you don't actually have to do anything.

: Step 2 - Get on the elevator when things start to get weird.
: You don't want to completely overload the game here to the point where
: player two isn't even spawning anymore... because odds are the banshees
: won't even spawn. You need to stop exactly when the MC stops spawning with
: his gun, or earlier. Remember to avoid looking at the dead MCs, so that
: they can vanish and allow more weapons to be dropped.
: [You should notice, after starting to drive the warthog, that most or all of
: the enemies are still around.]
: Step 3 - Quickly drive both players to the loading zone before the foehammer
: scene.
: When you get there, kill player 2 for at least a minute. If his gun stops
: appearing, you are done, and can move on.

: Step 4 - Snag the empty banshee.
: Park the warthog as shown in the video and stand somewhere on the warthog
: where pressing x will not make you enter the warthog. Continually press x
: as the empty banshee flies over you... That's it!

: Big movie showing steps 3 and 4 -
: http://yuan.ecom.cmu.edu/utfoo/movie/movies/maw_snag.mov
: Notes: Object overloading is pretty awkward, and it is hard to know when
: you've gotten everything right. It is also a pain in the ass to wait for
: enough weapons to build up.
: Don't get on to the lift until the MC's bodies are dissapearing when you are
: not looking at them.
should i hate you like i do? :) good job!
