Since the viddoc everybody seems to think that you can fly a pelican. i mean wtf u have never been able to fly a pelican in all of the Xbox series. And he says "smart enough to be a pilot" when he flies a banshee wich probably means that we are getting to fly banshees in mickey's flashback ..

Ditto. I never saw a good reason to indicate flying a pelican in that video.

I think its the fact that they show the Pelican and also that at the end, that final cutscene indicates that Dutch and Mickey are at the controls of that Pelican that pushed everyone into thinking as such.

While I used to be a strong believer, I am starting to doubt that the Pelican will be driveable as well. The video really teases it well though and a lot of fan requests have started to appear in ODST (Survival Mode, Halo 1 Pistol, Engineers). Fans want Pelican. Seems like a good time to have them.

you know what i think? i think that the guys at bungie made this video to tease and show us a small part of the story. They show us a cutsceen were the pelican takes off and then gets shot down by two banshees.

Bungie guys think: ha this is going to tease'em well nough!! :D

People on the forums: WE WILL BE ABLE TO FLY PELICANS :D :D :D : D!?

Bungie guys: WTF?!?!!1111one

You're missing the point I was trying to make. Sure, if it was just that one shot of the Pelican taking off, then any speculation would seem like nonsense. However, we then find out at the end that Both Mickey and Dutch were controlling that Pelican. That pretty much put everyone over the top. And for good reason too.

Wrong.
As soon as they show two main, playable characters, driving a Pelican, people speculated using the information thus far shown, to theorize that Pelicans are piolatable vehicles.
It's not just a random assumtion based on a single viewing of a Pelican.


Also, it's not unreasonable.
I personally don't believe there will be. But, you never know with Bungie.

And if people want to believe that you can drive Pelicans, so what?
What the hell do you care about what other people believe about a game that isn't even out yet?
