So I just saw this on the latest community update:
Derpy Turtle HD Will there be any UNSC aircraft that we can use?
Warzone features Pelicans in intro to the mode but there will be no pilotable UNSC aircraft in the mode at launch.
I know people have made threads about the newest update, but I haven’t seen anyone talk about this. Am I the only one who is extremely disappointed? Now it seems like the warthog is the only vehicle in halo that truly requires teamwork. The wraith and scorpion turrets are rarely used. Just thing of the falcon in halo reach, it would have been awesome to have a vehicle like that but instead we get the phaeton (or however it’s spelled) which is cool, but it’s just another 1 person vehicle, which is really not what halo needs. They should at least have the spectre and falcon be in halo 5 (in my opinion). However he did say that that was only at launch, and BTB does not come out at launch, which makes me wonder if BTB will have some sort of air vehicle. Either way, I think 343 should be more open and just confirm/deny some of this stuff.
Nope. I’ve been wanting fly able Pelicans in MM and customs/forge for the longest. But look

At launch. Maybe we’ll see a DLC in the future?? Who knows. I also know though that they have not confirmed nor denied Hornets or Falcons at all in MM. This is a reference to the Warzone game mode, where the only fly able aircraft is the Phaeton (so far)
Honestly, when people refuse to talk about something, it’s usually because they know if they answer that they will tick off a lot of people. I wouldn’t count on there being flying vehicles for UNSC in Halo 5, because honestly it doesn’t seem like they listen to ANYTHING that truly matters unless it’s from the competetive community.

They said in warzone, yet if they’re in the game I don’t see why they wouldn’t be in warzone. No way to be sure of this until they say so regarding the entire multiplayer or the game comes out though. I can’t believe they’d actually go two games in a row without the unsc having aircraft, that’s just ridiculous if that’s actually the case.

But does that truly matter. I mean oh wah no flying a pelican or a hornet or whatever you people are wanting. That does not constitute something that matters…
Pity, but it is still possible that we will see the Hornet, Pelican or Falcon at a later date. Remember that we have 6 additional Warzone maps still to come and 343i have also stated that they will make new items available via the REQ card system to give people something to play for. Either of these could be viable ways to implement them later.
Also Pelicans or other UNSC air vehicles maybe playable in Campaign (Like the Pelican and Broadsword in H4), so there is that.
When the Halo universe already has the Falcon and the Hornet, and both have been greatly requested by fans, it feels stupid that 343 have wasted this opportunity…
He has 2 important modifiers to his statement:
In Warzone: This means that the vehicles could be in arena or forge or any other gamemode they have.
At launch: This likely means one of the DLC warzone maps will support a UNSC flyng vehicle.
What this really means to me is that the flying vehicle for the game is not balanced fpr warzone, it is either OP for the gametype or not a very team-focused vehicle. Maybe this means a new vehicle, because that doesnt exactly fit any we know.

You’d think that “everything at their disposal” would include their own vehicles.
Yeah, it makes no sense from a design perspective or story perspective. Why would the Spartans be training with Promethean and Covenant air vehicles and not Hornet’s and Falcon’s? I would love to see especially the falcon make a comeback just to have some more teamwork in the game.
Seeing how Broadswords and Longswords are most common for UNSC small aerial involvement. The use of Falcons or Hornets would be like the tricycle at the bike park.

They’ve gotta be in BTB, right? We can’t get a second 343 Halo game without UNSC flying vehicles in multiplayer. Why would they intentionally leave out something that spices things up, makes it more fun? I feel like they want the experience to be as boring as possible.
Sad really…
