*Elites in ''Halo: Reach'' may board vehicles, including campaign essential ones such as the Falcon ridden in [[Tip of the Spear]]. However, they will be very bad at flying it, and the hijacking will result in the level being disrupted and the player unable to continue, at which point they must reset at a checkpoint.

*During the development of ''Halo: Reach'', Bungie expanded the boarding mechanic by attaching it to character models, such as [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]] and [[Gúta]]; players could either plant a grenade into the back of the creature or melee it to death. This mechanic was eventually cut before release. However, the similar [[assassination]] mechanic, which targets smaller opponents, did make it into the game.<ref name="pax2010">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZs8ryXP4kE&t=7m0s '''Youtube''': ''PAX 2010: Bungie Halo: Reach Panel'']</ref> Master Chief pulls a similar stunt in ''[[Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn]]'', where he leaps onto a Hunter and plants a grenade in it.
