This is awesome, I've been waiting to fly the pelican for a while. However, they could build a map that supports it. Think about something like avalanche, where there was the outer area primarily for vehicles, and the shotgun tunnel for players, which was nearly as fast as the vehicle path. If a linear kind of map this cold work.
i hate to let you all down but this egg is not that amazing, i've been trying to fly a pelican since halo 1 and this was quite a let down since: 1. you cant shoot what so ever, only hit things 2. the only way to gain elevation is if you stop, tilt your nose down, reverse untill the desired height, and then level out (pain in the arsenal) 3. you can't finish the level with a pelican so the whole thing is kind of pointless 4. its only cool for about 1 min. but there is one upside, you never die so you can flt out of the map as far as you want
I can't get to this easter egg right now, because my campaign progress was reset for some reason >.< I'll have to finish a campain run through on easy to get to the level.
1. You can put marines in the guns and they're pretty powerful. 2. Use right bumper, that's how you gain elevation. 3. You CAN finish the level with the pelican, you just have to land it on the pad. Also, you can exit the pelican at anytime. 4. If you have a bunch of people in the guns, it's pretty cool for about 10 minutes.
Idk about pelicans because they move slow, But phantoms using Boost (L Trigger) you can charge banshees and explode them
Walk Around Inside The Easter Egg Pelican!(Tutorial) Me and my friends were trying to find new things about the easter egg driving thing on New Alexandria and I discovered a way to walk around inside the Pelican while someone is driving! TUTORIAL: Disclaimer: I do not know whether or not this has been found before. Things You'll need: - Pelican - At least two people (the more the better) - A good sized building _____________________________ 1. Have your friend get a Pelican. 2. Have him fly over the building you're on and position the Pelican nose down (but you're still able to reach the troop bay) 3. Run and jump into the back of the Pelican (right side only) while pressing RB until you are in the second seat of the Pelican (second one to the back.)Note: This may take a lot of tries but it's worth it. 4.Once in second seat get out and you'll be able to walk around freely in the back of the Pelican. Well that's it! The Pelican can be flown wherever while you're inside. Also, once one player is in, other players can kill themselves and will spawn next to him.
Even after a half an hour of flying the pelican, it still didn't get any easier to control. It was still pretty fun though.
CHEEZ3 and I did this about a week ago, and for some reason it was so much fun. Phantom's way better than the Pelican for the obvious reason, ****in' boost. It was actually really enjoyable just flying around the beautiful city crashing into buildings and randomly exploding. Overall, it's by far my favorite easter egg yet to come out of Reach. 500th post! Woohoo, yeeeeah bitches.
Well, you could do it in the PC version of Halo but that was something the community did instead. We even had a rocket-shooting motor cycle.. the good times. <3
if you put a marine in the gunner and park it somewhere near oni tower, it will kill banshees forever, you'll never die, each kill +4cR (normal or above) edit: if you plan to leave it unattended, place the pelican above semi tall building near oni so when it loses altitude over time you don't die and restart checkpoint.
If you're using the default control scheme, use LB and RB to move vertically. [br][/br]Edited by merge: Here's the updated tutorial on how to walk around inside the Pelican while someone is driving. http://www.forgehub.com/forum/halo-...nside-easter-egg-pelican-tutorial-inside.html
