This is officially the most awesome update I've read in ages. I'be been trying to get rid of those damn Elephants for ages. But now I don't have too. Hooray! I like most of what I see, except the part about BTB going the way of the Dodo
It would be nice to see them implemented on a much larger map, though. Something about the size of Avalanche. It was too difficult to have them driving around all the time, especially when people drove them together to make an impenetrable fortress of death. A tactic which was even lamer on CTF.
I would like to see these questions answered by a Bungie employee though, if possible; will we see the Elephant, or a similar vehicle, on a future map? Is it possible to get map-exclusive items to go with them? Like a large mounted turret or missile launcher which can be mounted either on the ground or on top of an Elephant.
One last question, if I may: I understand that the Hornet, for balance reasons, had to be changed. But, can the new version be updated to fill its new support roll even better? As an example, it'd be neat if it could drop bombs to the ground directly below it in exchange for the missiles, or pick up and drop a ghost or mongoose. You could even add a bomb as a forge object which could be picked up and dropped, but only by the Hornet.
Bombs would be great for Heavy gametypes, especially against tanks. The ability to pick up and drop light vehicles would be great for objective modes, such as CTF. Sorry for all the asking, but I just think forge is such an awesome addition to the game, and like the idea of further expansion in new maps, especially where air combat is concerned.
