In celebration of ODST wouldnt it be cool to get a new vehicle on Sandbox?? What if there was a new object in the list that said Drop Room and a vehicle that said Drop Pod. people could build the Drop Room on the Top Layer of Sandbox and put the Drop Pods in the Drop room. Press the Rt( Right Trigger) to launch and fall throught the kill layer and land on the middle floor of Sandbox. The pod smashes like weapon drop pds and cant move untill respawn. that would be awsome.

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

We wouldn't be able to add it. D:

Sounds pretty awesome, but it's too late to add something like that. Not to rain on your parade though, but doesn't this belong in the Halo 3 forum?

It could be on one of the new maps coming, as well as a reskinned silenced SMG and reskinned pistol too.

Plus an FX effect which works like VISR.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

They can't add new vehicles any easier than they can add new armor (we would need to re-download Sandbox).

I love it when a new game comes out and everyone blatantly ignores what the developers say and then act all ass hurt when they dong get what they over hyped about.

Sounds pretty awesome, but too late for ODST, maybe reach? I can imagine being able to aim and you can blow away anyone below the pod

The Sausage King of Chicago.

I made a map similar to this, ODSTs spawned in "Drop Pods" (Boxes in the sky with weapons and equipment that wouldn't actually fall... Then, the other team is the Covenant, with tons of Weapons and vehicles.

Anyway, it would be great (Of course it will never happen). Maybe there could be a ship in the sky bubble and you spawned from there, dropped, then kicked some ass.

that would be soo pimp. or have like a spacebattle map like on halo 1 it had 2 ships facing each other and barriers and teleporters and u could shoot at each other, there was also a chasm of outer space between them. What if in like a battle map with 2 ships u could use deck guns to destroy the other and like fly pelicans with boarding partys.

Yeah that would be pretty cool. But dont you think it would be even cooler if bungie added a multiplayer for ODST and completely new maps. Each map had two ships in space. You spawn in the ships and you walk around grab ammo and weapons then find a drop pod and drop into the map.

HOLY CRAP! they should have an update for that in ODST and i would never play halo 3 matchmaking again

There are two things on this forum that piss me off;
Idiots and group invites.
What's even worse, is that I can never seem to get away from either of them ¬_¬

Impossible, like armour perms, items on a map are hard-coded into the map file/s.

However, as an idea for a new map, this is a massive YES. It's suprising no one thought of this before. However, I'm not too sure how plausable it is. New animations may be difficult to code into game, perhaps impossible. We can only wait and see...
