Hi Guys. With all the threads about Warzone farming and possible solutions (Surrender, self destruct core, etc) I wanted to put my idea out there.
At the beginning of each warzone match when the home base is secured, an elephant can spawn. The elephant can be closed topped and have the same shield door as the home base so only your team can access and drive it. The match goes on and the enemy team has managed to take all 3 bases and have pushed you back into home base and are farming outside with 2 scorpions, a phaeton, 3 banshees and a scout warthog with no attempt to go for your core or bosses. This is where the elephant comes in!
So instead of constantly being spawned killed until the game ends at home base, you will now have the option to spawn inside the elephant where ever it has been moved to around the maps (This spawn option is only available when you core is vulnerable). This gives your team a chance to get back into the game without losing the will to live. It will also encourages the enemy team to get in your home base a destroy the core before you can flank them and take bases.
I would make the elephant so its the same design as halo 3 but with a covered roof/shield doors and indestructible however no weapons so its just a moveable spawn point. I don’t know if there is a smaller troop transport in the halo universe but if there is 343 could use that (or design a completely new vehicle) because the elephant is massive and might be to big for some maps.
Anyway that’s just my idea.
tl;dr - Put elephants in warzone that can be used as spawn point when your core is vulnerable so don’t have to spawn in home base and be farmed.
This is a really cool idea, I would love to see elephants return to the game but I don’t think this would be the best use for them.
also surely as soon as you left the elephant someone could just instantly shoot you? Or a few scorpions could continuously shoot the elephant to stop the enemy escaping.
Really? I have to explain it? your suggestion of an elephant. Now if you have made the suggestion of being able to spawn in the a safe area (when the base is overrun) such as the area where vehicles spawn that would be a valid idea and a good one.
I think it would be cool to have a 1 time usage destructible Mammoth that spawns when triple capped. All the weapons from Campaign will be usable. Once destroyed, it can’t be called back in if you got 3 capped multiple times. Mammoth has the health of 3 Wardens. Too Op? Lol don’t care but sounds fun.

Although that’s true, at least it stops the scorpions spawning killing at home base. Plus you can always move the elephant into a position where you can safely get inside a base to capture. And once the base is captured you will be unable to spawn in the elephant but you now have a base and home base to spawn plus the farmers should be on their way to take back the base giving your team room to get some stuff out.

I want elephants too I miss them from sandtrap CTF. Chasing after the elephant to board and stealing the flag was so much fun.

Why do you think that? Just interested to know your opinion

Honestly you’re gonna have to explain it? I can’t see how giving the team that has no bases a safe movable spawn until they secure a base so they don’t get farmed is trolling?
