Yea, I think there will be. If you notice there is a vehicle and weapon for both races to counter eachother. I read in OXM Pelicans wont be in multiplayer though. I would love to unload a ton of Spartans into a enemy base. Maybe by a long shot the Long Sword will be multuplayer compatable.

the pelican doesnt really seem to be the vehicle that would counter the banshee. i would think the pelican is the human equivalent of the covie dropship.

yea, i think there will be, maybe a totally new vehicle, like a helicopter or something along those lines, but i think that a human equivilant is needed

Back in 2000 Bungie decided not to put Helicopters in the origonal Halo. It was not futuristic enough so they came up with the Pelican. So I doubt one will be in Halo 2. And in Halo 1 if you look at the sheer size of the Longsword I doubt it will be multiplayable. I think a totally new human ship will be implemented.

If there is no Covenant tank in Halo 2 Multiplayer there will most likely not be a human flying vehicle since the human tank can destroy air targets.

It would be soooo cool if there were playable space battles in Halo 2. Take off from an earth airforce base and rendezvous with a fleet of UNSC cruisers. longswords vs. seraphs *shudders* now thats a long shot, but it would be an aspect they would keep hidden till the release....

Possible that a human flyer may appear but not in multiplayer.

They should make a helicopter. But not one from todays day. Just like a vehicle that is design like an apache.

There will not be a longsword a Pelican or a Skyhawk to fly in Multiplayer or probably any other mode of play .Basicly the Pelican is to big and its a drop ship ... no where equivilant to a banshee . Longswords and Sky hawks will be alot like modern jets ... they are too fast and made for high speed engagments and bombing runs ..... the Multiplayer levels would have to be HUGE!!!!!!!!!!! and if they were that large #1 the graphic quality would suck or #2 The levels would not be large enough and you'd hit the infamous invisible walls . ..... Basicly the only human flyable vehicle would have to be alot like a banshee ... but thats not Humankinds style ..... and if they had em why not use em ?? .... and a helicopter ??? come on that'd be no where near realistic flying in a halo type invirament .. dont get me wrong i wanna see a human flying vehicle .... i just dont want it to be dumb ... no offence to any ones other posts ... you all had great ideas .. but i dont think they fit the halo "Style" .
