I will find you doctor phil and i will destroy you

Thats a really good idea, but it would have to be in a seperate playlist/gametype, and definately in campaign. A lot of inbalanced ends, sure, but Bungie can easily tie them up. Maybe maps for pelicans would have seperate maps....


Agreed with everything you said.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

More people in Matchmaking is possible. Add in dedicated servers like Frontlines: Fuel of War, and BAM.

Neither would have missles,
The phantom could hold just as many, but the people jump through the hole, the turrets with all three firing are able to produce the equel damage of the pelican, and both can hover, the phantom will hold two gohsts and a wraith, or prowler, whaetver you can think and name

Will the Pelican actually be a match for the Phantom...? Because the only thing the Phantom has is 3 turrets. And i would like to see your phantom idea to please :).


Working on phantom idea, phantom would be match for pelican, and it would be based on luck and skill on who dies and who doenst.


Ok nice sounds good



idealy the idea would be that they are the exact same thing but look diffrent, no perks just diffrent looks and sounds


The Phantom is almost completley diffrent. It hovers, not propels, has a big hole in the middle, has 2 open sides when pelican only has the back open, and it seems like it would be almost no match to the pelican because it doesnt have any missles or anything. That it why i wanted you to come up with something for the Phantom

Ok sounds good you cleared it up for me but there is one thing that is bothering me. Don't you think that the Pelican and Phantom should be able to close the hatches? Meaning press B to open and close the two sides of the Phantom. That would mean deactivating the turret system for the Pelican and Phantom but it gives them both more amor wich would mean more safety wich means the passengers would be safe. The same would apply to the Pelican but instead of to sies opening and closing the back would open and close. I just think that this should be implemanted into the two vehicles as well as all the other features you listed.



amazing idea!!!
great great great!!
Cheers to another Halo Reach Hot Topic

The only problems that I can see with them being in the game would be that they would be overpowered because they need to overcome the other problem: it's a killing spree waiting to happen.

You are saying that Halo must be turned upside down for this to happen? If that is the case then I'm 98% sure that Bungie won't even consider it. The game has evolved over the years, not been completely altered.

That is why they both will be used mainley as a transport vehicle. I believe that both of them have weakspots on them i will name them out.

Pelican- Left engine, Right engine, Cockpit (Cockpit is a 1 shot K.O.)
Phantom- The 4 Gravity Generators ( I believe there is 4 im not sure), and the Cockpit
The weakspots would make them a accident waiting to happen. Hence them being mainly for transport and quick support because they both could go down in a flash.

* off topic * sorry for going off on you on another topic about taking out elite or i think it was you :/ i was mad didnt mean to go off on you like that


To address your off topic comment first, my feelings weren't hurt by some flame in a forum. If you didn't notice most of the posts in that thread contained put downs and whatnot directed at me. We're cool.

I would think that they should have an equal number of weak points, don't you? Also, if the pelican is going to be developed as a usable vehicle I think they will have it in campaign like most of the underused vehicles in MP (Scorpions, Wraiths, etc). My guess is that if you see someone driving a pelican in a future trailer of the campaign that you should get excited. Otherwise, I wouldn't hold my breath.

To the second part I disagree, I am talking it about being in Big Team Matches.

  • 07.06.2009 11:20 AM PDT

Let there be light, created from fire

I am all i am, i am a team player(when im not pissed), i make great strategies, i will punch you in the face after armor locking, you have to be at sniper distance to not get headshot by my DMR or pistol, wraiths beware, i am DxXOrangesXxD and i am ready to rumble! (When Halo 4 comes out cause Reach is nothing but crap players now)

the peli can work, it will just need work

Here's my advice to you son, its a life lesson you shan't forget.

Some people are like Slinkies. They aren't good for anything in particular, but it still makes you smile when you push them down the stairs

A good Idea could be Two Aircraft Carriers in the middle of the sea, so that Bungie don't have to waste alot of time Making Fancy maps, they can just create an Ocean, though the Amount of Vehicles Needed (like 12 Hornets and 2 Pelicans)..though it would be Epic...

AH BRAINSTORM!

It could be a Whole New Gametype, You have to Sink the Enemy Aircraft Carrier whilst Defending your Own, it would call for some Good Tactics and what not and some Epic Films in the Theatre Mode

How about diffrent kinds of Pelicans and Phantoms?

* Recon Pelican- This Pelican is Black and smaller then the others, and has no deffense system meaning. No turret in the back and the pilot cannot control any turrets. But also it is alot faster then the others and does not show up on normal radars.

* Bombing Pelican- This Pelican has a Missle Pod in the back instead of a turret. Also The Pilot does not have any turret system but instead has bombs drop. They will be similar to rock launcher but with a bigger blast radius and they have a extreme arc. This Pelican cannot hold any passengers. And it moves alot slower then all the other making it the slowest Pelican.

* Normal Pelican- This is the standard Pelican with a turret in the back, co-pilot, and pilot. The Pilot does not control any turrets but the co-pilot does. Holds 6 passengers.

> I also came uip with another idea :0. How about weapon racks in all Pelicans and Phantoms. The Recon Pelican will have Silenced SMGs in the racks, Silenced Pistols and Grenades. The pilot can control when the weapon racks come down and up by pressing Y. The Bombing Pelican will be equipped with Spartan Lasers, Rocket Launchers and Grenades. The Normal Pelican will be equipped with BR, AR, Sniper Rifles and Grenades.

* The Stealth Phantom- This will be the match for the Recon Pelican, But it is dark purple. It will have the ability to go invisible for short spurts wich the pilot controls by pressing LB. It will be slower then the Recon Pelican but the invisability will make up for it. It will not be shown on normal radars, only enhanced. The weapon racks will also be equipped with Brute, and normal Plasma Rifles, and plasma Pistols.

* The Bomber Phantom- This will match the Bomber Pelican. The Two Turrets on the side wil be equipped with Fuel Rod like Turrets. Similar to the onces on the AA Wraith. But the Plasma will Travel just as fast as a rocket launcher but as much damage as a Fuel Rod Gun. Making it not OP. The Turrets will fire Plasma bullet every second. The Phantom will also be green, as seen in the campaign level The Covenant. It will also be equipped with Fuel Rod Guns, Beam Rifles and Carbines. It is also the slowest Phantom.

* Normal Phantom- Same as the normal Phantom with all the features including vehicle pick up/ drop off, 3 Turrets and passengers. Just like all the other Phantoms. It will be purple and be equipped with Carbines, normal Plasma Rifles and grenades.

This is a few of my ideas im sorry if it is not correct spelling, puncuation and etc. i dont want to re read it all

EDIT: The Recon Pelican and Stealth Phantom cannot carry heavy and medium vehicles. EX: No Tanks, Warthogs, Spectres or Prowlers. Mongoose and Ghost only and they can only carry 2 of them.



I like the weapon rack, but the types of pelicans and phantoms are a little out of the league
but yet a really good idea
