    this involves something i heard from a friend about the elephant about its gravity

    ok heres the story....((ripple effect))....my friend was joking around and flipped the elephant and it landed on its side and then before he flipped it back he put a turret on its side , to where it would be face up, and then later with out even thinking of the turret he flipped the elephant right side up and of course the turret went flying but spawn remained there , he didnt even think about it, then about 30 secs later it spawns SIDEWAYS AND ATTATCHED TO THE ELEPHANT so then he manned the turret and he was side ways shooting.

    my friend is not trust worthy on stories like this so can anyone prove or disprove him please

    I'm going to take a guess and say that it would just display the "inoperable turret" message. Could be wrong.

    If this is actually true, can one of the people that says it works post a picture proving it, because I am still not really convinced. Nothing personal, I've just heard a lot of crazy stories in Halo that people say work, but never actually work for me.

    It should work because if you think about it, the mongoose on it in matchmaking doesn't spawn back at where the the elephant starts. It always spawns on the elephant. Also the fusion coils, used in the map to make it fly, fly with it.

    The sideways turret definitely sounds cool.

    Omg that is so sweet, just in the fact that you are upside down. This doesn't really change the mapping experience though.

    I wonder... This could be useful if you could put turrets on the sides of the elephant, or in the "mouth" where the mongooses are... It would definitely look cooler :D

    Heh, too bad there are no other Elephant-type vehicles. Maybe on the Legendary pack?

    Turrets can't be attached to vehicles, they'll simply levitate on the spot.
