well if they make the maps too d@mn big then nobody would be able to find each other and the nap would have to be filled with dern vehicles so that peole would even get a glimps of each other but i think that it should only be used on multiplayer settings for like capture the flag or assault but in any other case....Yes i think we should be able to fly the pelican.....

There is another possibility. A five hundred person game. It would have to be done via a "cellular" style mapping system. People that aren't anywhere near you could be more laggy on purpose (unless you scoped in on them with your sniper rifle).

The only problem with this would of course be the networking code... the AI for this sort of code would be difficult to write and a monster to fine tune. Then there's the other question... what if the 500 all rushed to the same location all at once. Not very likely if you keep the spawn areas far enough apart but... still possible :)

In campaign sure but in multiplayer, just CTF maybe, that would make it so cheap on slayer. Like transporting the guy with the flag on the bird with a 16 people CTF match would be interesting. One guy pilots, one guy sits and the other uses the chain gun.

Any1 here ever play Halo PC Custom Edition?? A map like coldsnap is VERY VERY big and the pelican works great on it. Unfortunatly on halo PC, you cant get amny people in a game without it lagging out (you can get about 6-8). If Halo3 can pull off a map that size with 32 people (at least) it would be a BLAST!!!!!!
