The most common kind of boarding takes place when a player successfully boards a '''Banshee''', '''Ghost''', or '''Chopper'''. An animation will take place showing their character model jump on top of the enemy vehicle and eject the current driver. Then the player's character will enter the vehicle and the player will now be the driver. The Ghost and Chopper vehicles are the easiest to board because they only have forward firing guns so they're safe to approach from all other sides. | The most common kind of boarding takes place when a player successfully boards a '''Banshee''', '''Ghost''', or '''Chopper'''.

When a tank is boarded, instead of the driver being ejected a different event takes place. The player can repeatedly press B to melee the hatch off the tank. After the driver is exposed you can either keep meleeing until the driver is killed or, by pressing the Left Trigger, plant a [[Grenade]] that will instantly kill the driver.
