I do not know if there is already a thread on this and im sorry if there is.

But anyways ; the elephant
The Enforcer Of Sand Trap Haha
In My Opinon The Elephant was A Nice Addition To The Halo 3 Array Of Vehicals But I Thought Bungie Did Too little With It.
The Mobile Base Had Much Potential But Was Only Playable In One Map.
It Didnt Make Sense Me And My Friends Loved BTB CTF on Sandtrap And I DOnt Kno If Anyone Else Did But Those Were A Lot Of Fun To Be Involved In.
I Think The Elephant Needs More Importance In Reach ; Im Flustered For Ideas But I Know The Community Has Some So Please Share And Dont Be -blam!-s

true. Very underused.

Besides an escort mission, there's little room to introduce it.

moves hella slow.

KEEP IT CLEAN

It's very underused for a reason... the only reason why anyone used it (other than to goof off in Matchmaking) was to move the Flag Cap "base" closer to the other team's flag spawn.

BTW, the OP's post was very hard to read... why capitalize the first letter of Every Single Word?

Leader of the nothing lol

He s gotta a point the only time it wasn't slow was in Halo wars and still I didn't use it that much.

Also, Try Not To Capatalize Every Word Like It Is As Important As A Proper Noun Or The Beginning Of A Sentence.

The Elephant is essentially useless. Halo 3 does not support big enough matches to utilize such a vehicle. If Bungie could increase the multiplayer to something like the size of the PC Battlefield games (64 players I believe was the highest), or even something like the number M.A.G. is supposedly going to output (256 players), then this vehicle would be utilized better. That is why I still dream of a Halo MMOFPS, with gigantic scale epic battles with huge armies.

It would actually be quite an addition to have a small supply frigate to hold a elephant, it having glass and a retractable gate on the nack, the terminal having an overview of the area and having objectives points. then to the left mounted on the wall a spec weaponry mount and of course in the front a mongoose loading dock, but with a small retractable sliding gate.
And replace the chain turet attached to it to gauss. then the little mobile turret move to the end of the left catwalk.

The elephant really has no use too spartans, and it would be too much of a big target if it wasn't escorted, i could only really see it being in H3:ODST, but if halo reach is going to be about the epic battles in the book, then no doubt a few elephants will be seen. But wether or not they'll be usable/usefull, is yet too be see.

Yax is a shining beacon in these dark times. You should all strive to be more like Yax.

More involvement in multiplayer would be good but elephants in campaign? That would be great

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

The Elephant needs to be killed.
