--Commodus: I wonder, did you friend smile at his own death?
--Maximus: You should know. He was you father.

I always thought there should be a covenant air transport vehicle. Similar to the Hornet, except the passengers would be a more protected, the vehicle would be faster, but have less firepower. But to balance it, no one carrying a flag, bomb, or skull could get into it.

I think everyone wants a drivable pelican so y would the bungie guys do it. man i got made respect for the bungie guys they make some pretty kick ass games. but they really should put the pelican atleast in the multiplayer

  • 06.29.2009 1:17 PM PDT

definately boats for water maps, and maybe a small version of the longsword

  • 06.29.2009 3:53 PM PDT

If they can't give us usable pelicans in the multiplayer of reach, they mine as well give us the albatross, i.e. from Relic in halo 2 MP.

Do you mean the warthog from the campaign? That would be sweet! I would still love to fly a Pelican :D


Everyone would love to fly a pelican but the only way it would be fair is to remove or disable the rockets of the pelican reducing it to just 2 Machine guns like a transport pelican, and make it smaller, much smaller for MM so it can only hold the pilot rear gunner, and 2 passengers.
I think it would be really cool if they made it so one person is pilot and a second person is weapons control and they can fire one rocket at a time like shoom (one rocket out of left side of pelican 2 secs later the second rocket comes out of the right side, then 5 secs to reload n do it again, much like the rocket launcher only limited to like 6 shots.


No no no.... the Pelican shouldn't be smaller, I want to use to drop troops in and out of combat, but you're right about the rockets and gunners should get something good. I just imagine dropping a squad of friends to go steal a flag anyway, then retrieving them... but I hope the other team in their Phantom don't try and shoot us down.

Yep same here! but it would be cool to have like 2 pelicans carrying an elepthant in and out of battles same w/ Scarb. Also i think that the phantom sould be more of an fighting transport. but the spirit could just be transport.

This. I'd compare this to the Warthog and would love for there to be a Mongoose-type one as well...like a WaveRunner or whatever

Last Refuge - Operation Phoenix is in effect. From the ashes, we will rise.

Basically, what I'm thinking is the vehicles from Halo Wars, only upgraded to a slight degree. And remember that you can't upgrade vehicles in Halo - Halo 3 that much, because you're in the past.

oh,i wanna see a raid on an insurrectionist base where you get to see modified vehicles, like the armored warthog in GoO, maybe a mongoose with rockets or a scorpian with a couple misslepods.

id like to be able to pilot a pelican and have all the vehicles from halo wars in it to and everyone of them should be pilotable

  • 06.29.2009 10:08 PM PDT

Since this Halo game will take place post combat evolved, why cant we incorporate two of the vehicles we always see in the campaing, the pelican and the covenant dropship? Give the two ship light machine guns and make at least one map large, and almost dedicated to dropping off soldiers. also possibly make teams greater than 8 or decrease the size of the holding area in both dropships. i personally think doing this will give it that post combat evolved feel and plus, who doesnt want to fly one of these?

also, i think maybe adding a side car to the mongoose would be a funny, yet effective vehicle. dont put a machine gun however let the person be able to shoot.

Hornets. idk. something about them, i just think there too all around good. maybe take out the targeting missles...

ever think about aquatic maps or vehicles??

Final point, make it so you need some kind of skill to use the vehicles. banshees in H3 couldnt face whats directly below it giving it some kind of skill to use to effectivly kill ground enemies. H2 banshee was like a moving 360 degree airborne turret. very deadly. I personally take some type of pride in my skill with vehicles since i suck at most other things like getting a no scope :) so please make the vehicles noob-proof!

The world is yours

what about an (heavy) armed helicopter for troop transport or to transport warthogs or other small vehicles?? or some kind of a boat on maps with rivers or waterways.... of course those vehicles make no sense on a little map (like 5 against 5 Players) there must be some sort of a big team battle (16 players and more)....

I agree with that list and the order

I really hope you guys don't expect any of these vehicles to actually be in Halo Reach. You really have to try to see things from Bungie's perspective. If they added a heavy transport vehicle like the pelican then they would have to have a covenant equivalent to keep it from dominating the air, and they would have to have a new weapon in order for the ground troops to be able to defend themselves against such a large threat, or of course they could just make the pelican die in one hit from the Spartan Laser or two or three rockets, but then everyone would probably whine and say that the pelican should be able to take more hits than that. I'm not saying that it's a bad idea, well actually, yes I am, but still. I'd like to see it as much as you all would, but it would just be too hard to cancel out in gameplay, and it could mess up the whole multiplayer experience for everyone.
