Piloting a Pelican?

Out of all the Halo games, I’ve always wanted to pilot a Pelican properly, the easter egg in Reach was not good enough! Who agrees???

No. It’s a complete waste of resources and wouldn’t serve any practical purpose in multiplayer.

Then how about Campaign? It’d be different. 343 say they want to make it their own game so adding the ability to control a Pelican would add to the objective? Like the New Alexandria mission from Reach? What’s your say on that? Regardless of whether it’d be a ‘waste of resources’, no need to come down hard, it’s just an opinion.

Oh man, imagine custom games with phantoms and pelicans. So much fun. They don’t even need to be in matchmaking.

That would complete my gamer life. Pretty Please with sugar on top 343? If they have not done it already though I don’t think it will be in the game :frowning:

> No. It’s a complete waste of resources and wouldn’t serve any practical purpose in multiplayer.

So something has to serve a purpose in multiplayer for it to be a good use of resources?

Well, I guess we need to throw out everything in campaign.

Someone who agrees! :'D I’d just love the whole idea of transportation of your team. like you said, doesn’t have to be in matchmaking just maybe part of a mission and/or in custom games!

Ah yes, the dropships. Something everyone has wanted to fly since Halo CE. I doubt it will happen. In Campaign maybe, Multiplayer most likely not. Personally I’d rather wait till Halo comes out on the Next Gen Xbox, more power and possibilities. Hopefully with a chance to really buff up Multiplayer with more than just 16 players, then having a dropship would be amazing.

I can’t see the Pelican having a place in multiplayer, let alone the other dropships.

I thought the Reach easter egg was really good, though, scratched that itch…

Pelican run ending for Halo 6!

> Pelican run ending for Halo 6!

Most epic ending ever.

It’s likely we’ll be piloting one in Spartan Ops. 343i has added another turret, and Spartan Ops is built for 4 players. 343i changes things for a reason.

I can’t wait to see 2 pelicans flying at each other in multiplayer crashing and exploding. Or better yet, how about getting dive-bombed from a pelican? I think that it would only be good for strictly forge/custom game. Not matchmaking.

If Halo 6 were to take place on Requiem, it would be epic to have to fly to the opening, with explosions everywhere and the large pillars falling down all around you.

You could make it like Star Fox when you pilot the arwing(?).

I’d want to see Pelicans in the multiplayer if there are big enough maps. In Halo Custom Edition we had custom maps such as “hugeass”, which was MASSIVE and it was great to fly around in Pelicans and Longswords.

Although I’m satisified with Falcons, hopefully they’ll make a return in Halo 4’s multiplayer.

I’d be happy if the Falcons just had seats as well as guns like in reach’s campaign.

That WOuld be Friggin AWESOME if they had pilot-able Pelicans in multiplayer!

Anyone removes Dat Mech and they die. True story :P.

Halo wouldn’t be the same if you took out any one mode be that Campaign, Forge, Firefight/Spartan OPs etc. ;/

Pelicans with Yoinking lazers attached to their Yoinking heads! I’d be so down!
