Mega-Elephant [Mammoth] in Multiplayer?

Does anyone think that the “Mega-Elephant” from the trailer should make it into Halo 4’s multiplayer? I for one think it should if 343i develops a map big enough to use it.

P.S. for those who dont know what im talking about, this is the mega-elephant.

Hell. Yes.

I’m hoping it’ll be in forge and custom games.

It looks like a mobile command centre that contains many different rooms, possibly even sleeping quarters it’s so big! It also looks like it has different floors in it and a cargo hold.

Imagine using this in assault or capture the flag. It’d make for AWESOME custom games as well as matchmaking.

I agree with vertigo.

Well if it is to make an appearance in MP, it would require a rather large BTB map.
It, by the looks, seems to be just 2x as big as the elephant so i’d say it would be possible.

I love the mammoth <3

agreed, think, 2x elephant=2x sandtrap :slight_smile:

hahah mega elephant… I think it has a more original name, and as far as it being in multiplayer, I am 99% sure that it wont be in multiplayer.

Some people call it ‘‘Mammoth’’ I think it fits.

A bigger sandtrap? I’d literally kiss the entire 343i team then!

I would hope that if it is in Multiplayer we get a map that’s more maneuverable than Sandtrap.

Well, look at the right middleground of this screenshot, there appears to structures like those on Sandtrap and the actually sandy theme of the area looks cool. But this is most likely from the campaign, but at least it tells us there’ll probably be a sandy map in multiplayer.

I’m 99% positive thats a campaign screenshot, mainly because of the chief. I was also contemplating the reason for the other spartans being there. That makes me 45% sure this also might be a co-op mission. Which now suggests we may be able to play as our own spartans in co-op (well, besides p1 of course.)

I believe that was confirmed as the official name

How about a gametype devoted to using it to run over enemy vehicles? :smiley:

I think you misunderstood me. Go to Sandtrap, and try to drive the Elephant around. I mean really drive it.

Sandtrap was very memorable because of the Elephant. there’s not one map in Reach that has that unique memorable moment. so yes, xOver9000!

able to add in Forge would be an extremely nice bonus

Yes. It’s slow and there’s only certain paths you can follow which are very narrow. If this were a multiplayer map, it’d be much easier to drive this ‘Mammoth’ and it’d probably be faster.

I felt like I was the bus driver in Halo 3. I rolled in with elephant like a boss xD.

I would love it if we had a map big enough to support a Halo sized version of Titan mode from 2142. Take down the Mammoth’s shields on order toboard and destroy it or if possible both teams trying with their own mammoth’s
