if they had no weapons apart from the turret on the back, and they weren't invincible then yeah, and only on custom maps, forge and maybe big team social games, and just possibly big team mm as well, but only slightly

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.”

campaign, yes, armored troop/tank dropper in MM, no

If bungie doesn't do it for Reach, maybe 343 will do something in their games.

I'd like it so u were at the start of every match dropped off in a pelican (only of course in the big maps) or phantom depending if your covenant or not, dropped off on your side were your team starts, on forge you simply move the starting point, which changes were the drop ship would drop everyone off, or something, then through the rest of the match you just spawn. =] it'd just give the start of the match that war feeling =D

I think it would make an awesome part of a campaign level and a fun custom game vehicle, but not in MM.

No.

Spartans are trained to deive EVERY SINGLE UNSC VEHICLE EVER BUILT.

So we should have a chance to use that training.

I would like to fly both in campaign and matchmaking. Plus ive always wanted to fly a pelican and a phantom.

As fun as Pelicans are to fly, which I've done plenty of in Halo Custom Edition, I REALLY hope they don't put flyable Pelicans and Phantoms, whats the point? Aimlessly flying around? Flying troops into battle? Your the main character of the story, why would YOU be flying around in a Pelican? And for Multiplayer, Pelicans have missile launchers, and a turret in the back, and if the back-hatch can open and people can shoot out from them, well, I see a huge problem in gameplay with that.

i know u can fly them in Halo costume edition and if u mod Halo 1. u can fly them but their really hard to fly cause when u turn they loose a lot of altitude, and its not cause i suck at flying them im actually pretty good, but its because when u would turn it would turn off the upward thrusters for some reason. but if they fixed that problem then i think it would be cool to have them flyable in the game.

Well I would like them in the game if they crashed rather than just blew up like the current vehicles. It would create some tense Black Hawk Down kind of firefights.

We got Jackals in the courtyard!

maybe have a cutscene where you fly a pelican (not a full cutscene but where you can control the camera and see your HUD, like in ODST when you start a flashback) I could see that working... like you pilot it for a little while and then crash.

i voted and i said yes. only because i want to fly pelicans and phantoms. i love flying. i wanted to fly ever since i was a kid. and now WOOO HOOO i just really want to fly these ships. u know i also had an idea. plz dont report me for saying this cause its off topic but, i also think that u should spawn in ur own allie ship and u can also use the odst pods to land on the map. but u can also use the pelicans and phantoms to fly down. + u can destroy ure enemies ship were the pelican/phantom hanger is and the drop pods. its like a whole new custom game. and for the ppl who r denying the pelicans and phantoms dont even come on this post. it'll be a waste of ur time. plz except my idea :)
