The Pelican, everybody's favorite non-pilotable vehicle from Halo. Hopefully, the good folks at Bungie will make dropships pilotable in Halo 2. If so, what will you do with them?

if they were in mulitplayer then i would probably try and crash it into a group of enemies just for a sucide run. but other times i would probably drop people off

no I never liked that idea because it would be overpowered because of it's weapons and if it didn't have weapons it would be to weak. It wouldn't be balanced. So I say no.

thats the dumbest statement ever.
why not give it weak weapons...like maybe jsut a minigun that just points in reverse....er, wait. i think im on to something!

its not about balance, but i dont know what its about. probably map sixe or something. ever play MP on the PC? they have the pelican MP maps, and it has no guns, and it kicks ass. you fly it, with people, and land a buch of people, and then you all kill.

its fun, just dies to tanks and banshees... weird, huh?

but bungie said you cant pilot the dropships at all in halo2. so its official.

Pelican would own in MP and Single player would be alright... But also guys, remember what they said, MP maps WOULD be huge, he said "Think 5 times bigger than Assault on the control rom." That, I'm sure would be big enough for a pelican...

Talking about single player

Although a multiplayer map of that size does sound like a hoot

I would really like to be able to fly the dropship in either campaign or MP, but I think its just too much for a single player. Besides, Im guessing that Bungie has a smaller human aircraft that well be able to fly in the game. I would like something that can hold a passenger though, so you could fly while the passenger shoots the main gun like an M60 from the side of a Huey. Then again, being able to transport 10 troops, and have your buddy shoot out the rear with a mounted LAAG would also be -blam!-in.
