    We gather here today to celebrate the life and ascendance of the gauss cannon equipped warthog on exile: a humbling combination of high speed, unlimited ammo, as much damage as a tank cannon, a hitscan projectile, and heavier aim assist than the railgun. It's head and shoulders deadlier than the tank and moves five times as fast. It kills anything smaller than a itself in a single hit, and punts heathen warthogs and ghosts off into the sunset, providing they don't immediately explode in reverence after being touched by the gauss rifle of the heavens.

    Yea, unto the gauss hog we offer ourselves and shall hold no other hogs before him.
    Yea, unto the gauss hog we offer ourselves and shall hold no other hogs before him.

    Let us take a moment to be thankful for all that the gauss hog has given us and continue to express our disdain toward lesser hogs so as to please our glorious master, and to share tales of how the gauss hog has let its presence be felt in our lives. May he live for a thousand years and reap for us a bountiful harvest of lopsided big team slayer wins.

    I have been on the receiving end of a few deadly gauss hog shots in my brief time playing Halo 4 multiplayer, it seems very strong in Halo 4.

    The gauss hog is amazing!! I once clipped an oncoming Ghost on its wing, and the power of the Gauss Cannon then sent that Gost spinning into 2 more of my enemies granting me a sweet sweet triple kill.

    The most wheelman assists I've gotten from a gauss hog in one spawn is 14. Shit was wild.

    Dude went 55 and 1 with the thing on exile the other night. One dude had 55 assists. Hopefully they fix it or at least take it out of that map.

    Fuck yeah gauss hog! Got my first killtacular in that son of a bitch. I just wish Exile had one for both teams so the blue team can't just fucking kill everyone with it.

    If only players wouldn't just scoot off the first change they get at the steering wheel and just waited for others to get it.

    you guys never heard of plasma grenades, plasma pistol, rocket launchers or scorpion tanks? The gauss hog might be fast and deadly but it blows up real fast.

    Tis nothing more infuriating than procuring oneself the position of sacred turret shooter man of thou Gauss Hog, only to have such holy righteousness swiftly destroyed by the inane foolishness of thou idiot Gauss Hog driver. Forsooth!

    Yeah, that's a matter of a garbage team.
