Well, enough people want the pelican (and they have the same idea of how to drive it) but what about crashes, jacking and how to kill it?
1) Crashes: It seems a shame for the enemy (or you) to make all that effort to take one down, only for the passengers to bail out and live at the last moment. This is why I think you should suffer damage the longer you stay in a crashing pelican. Instead of just killing them when they land (anyone who wastes 4 rockets into a pelican only to watch th gits inside bail out just before the crash seems cheesy)
2) Jacking: This, and side seats in warthogs, should be done in 1st person. How would you jack a pelican? Simple, standard jacking procedure near the rear door. Then (and this should apply to any vehicle you hit to break in) you do a first person veiw aiming at the pilot.
3) How to destroy it: We all know the pelican has engines on wings and rear right? Well (seing as it's too unfair to be able to lock onto such a huge target) why not make the engines the only source of destruction? Aiming plasma at the hull is really not gonna do it for balance or realism.
Thanks for reading, please suggest any amends.
