Marine driving the Ghost?

| Hey, I was playing easy level for the heck of it (Have already beaten
Legendary more times than I can count.)
On AOTC, I was at the part where you get the tank for the first time
(Scorpion), and for the life of me, a marine boarded a ghost and started
driving and shooting the convies along side with me in the Scorpion.
I could not duplicate this feat again. Can anyone else?

It's pretty common; Marines in Ghosts have even run me down a couple of
times. I imagine they use the same "driving" AI as the Elites, just with
different things marked as enemies.

| Yes. I've done it a bunch of times. Marines will grab any empty Ghosts
nearby them and use the same AI programming that Elites do judging by their
patterns, only they're targeting the Covenant instead of you. That's the
only place they'll ever do it.

I usually try to flip the ghosts so that the marines don't get in. I hate
getting run over by them. If a marine does get in, then I usually try to
place a rocket underneath the ghost to flip them out of it.

I like it when marines get in the ghosts. I just keep an eye on them so I
don't get run over. They'll do a lot of damage to the Covenant with the
Ghost's Plasma Rifles. The only time I'll try to keep them from getting in
is when I am going to use it. If you get close enough to them you can press
X (or E on PC) to make them get out, but you'll usually get run over if you
do this, and sometimes they'll just get right back in. But usually I donšt
use Ghosts, so the Marines are welcome to them in my opinion.

| I hate it when Marines get into Ghosts. They run me over EVERY time.
Whenever they DO get into one, I always try to boot them out. Only
thing there good for is distracting the covenant long enough for me to
snipe them.

| I usually kill the wraith fast enough that marines don't get in the ghosts
until after it's dead. And on Legendary, the only time I don't go straight
for the tank, the marines rarely make it to the ghost anyway.
