    The title explains itself. If you could bring back or create a vehicle and put it into Reach, what would it be? Yes we all want something like the elaphant or the pelican to be put in Reach, but lets try something more... original shall we?
    Try to focus on the create a vehicle part, to ya know, make this thread more "exiting". Lets see just how creative the community is when it comes to automobils and such.

    (once some posts start coming in, ill tell you all my ideas, okay?)

    I always liked the police cars in ODST. It'd be cool if there were more city levels and such.

    Also, Different style tanks. It's not like the army would have just one kind.

    another gauss vehicle, preferably one where the driver can operate the main gun, because the gauss warthog just isnt enough. pretty sure there was something like it in halo wars.

    in addition to bringing back the elephant, i would like to see a covenant counterpart based off the shadow from halo 2 (the big ground transports at the end of outskirts), with increased protection and carrying capacity to match the elephant.

    also, more realistic, i really would like to see falcon variants available in forge, including one with a forward-facing gun (same as the ones you pilot in New Alexandria), and one with mounted grenade launchers instead of machine guns (like the ones in the campaign).

    also, the transport warthog, civilian trucks, and forklifts. even bungie cannot deny that forklift bumper-cars would be awesome beyond comprehension

    Scarabs.

    Don't even care if it takes three people to even get the damn thing moving; you could create the most epic invasion game ever.

    Why do people think white text makes them cool. Be considerate of people who use different skins and use the default text color.

    nospam:
    The garbage truck from ODST or a Forklift that can actually splatter and lift the forks.

    I'm probably gonna come off as an mlg nerd right now but I prefer less vehicles. They usually make me a little mad in game. I guess I just prefer gun battles on foot. To each his own.

    However, it would be cool if you could have some burrowing vehicle. That would be way to complex and probably wouldn't fit with halo gameplay.

    I've really contributed nothing. :)

    APCs.
    Like the Elephant, but smaller/faster.

    I agree that vehicles are a waste of engine resources, but taking down the dual scarabs on The Covenant was probably the MOST epic moment of halo ever... I remember when I first got there and my mind was simply blown. I think I reloaded that checkpoint fifty times trying to take them both out as fast as I possible could! Imagine invasion with that as one of the objectives; it would never get old. Its just so awesome sometimes.

    Scarab, Elephant, Chopper, Spectre, passenger Falcon variant, Revenant where turret is operated by passenger (always felt a bit OP to me). Also, of course, Pelican and Phantom.

    I'm all for bringing back the elephant :D and what happened to the transport hog??? :( and also the other warthog variations?

    What about the covenant warthog thing you had on Halo 2? Although I wasnt all that keen on it, I like it more than the revenant it just needed a bit of something to make it special. how about that with the revenant turret on the back, that would be pretty good :)

    oh and civilian vehicles please ;) :D

    pelican with better hud for the gunner and fixed seats inside, that would go well vs the scarab in some insane type of invasion. maybe you have to take out the scarab. two people flying around in the pelican, while people spawn inside with jetpacks. once in a while the pelican could make a pass and drop a few spartans, elites on the scarab would just be trying to defend that weak point at the back (maybe give that weak point a downward angle from above so its hard to hit with the pelican)

    also, a type of jetpack thats not a loadout, but a very small vehicle. think the mongoose equivilant of air transport, but for one person, that gives more than lift, but rocketteer type speed. something that would move as fast as a banshee/ghost at boost

    Bring Back? Elephant.

    Create?

    Basically I would like to have a small air based vehicle. It would have two rotors on top of each other spinning in opposite directions. This minimizes space. It then has a pilot seat which is a glass bubble. It has two chainguns (Like the falcons on New Alexandria) on it. They are aimed foward and can't be turned.
    This thing holds no passengers but one can put up to 4 weapons on its back which can be transported for tactical purposes.

    I call it: "The Bee"

    Hmmm... I like the idea of falcon variants and civillian vehicles in forge.

    I also think that bringing back the chopper and spectre would be cool, and how about boats/jetskis? There could be a boat that was a water equivelant of a warthog, and a jetski would be the equivelant of a mongoose. Then, if they made covenant vehicles float on water, it would be awesome.

    Bring Back or Insert+Modify:
    Spectre, Chopper, Hornet, Prowler, Shadow (upgraded), Elephant (downgraded... invincible is baw), Scarab, Heavy Orbital Insertion pod, ODST Drop pod, Single Elite drop pod, Phantom, Spirit, Pelican, Bulldog (motorcycle from Halo PC's community), Kestrel (""""), Wasp (""""), Banshees that aren't constantly falling.

    Create:

    For the Covenant... something with a linear beam that rivals that of the Gauss (MAC rounds) hog. It'd look like it's shooting a quick burst of focus-rifle/beam-rifle ammo but in a huge blast. Drawback being that this vehicle is extremely fragile. :v Or, at least the main gun is, should it have passenger guns. This would be the first pilot-able vehicle that requires the gun to charge. Kind of sounds like a mobile Splaser, though... :( Of course, it'd fire faster maybe. :p Maybe, to differentiate, it fires two lasers to the side and the cleave in towards the center. Anything hit by a single laser is severely damage, anything hit when the lasers cross (let's assume they home after a certain point, or something) is annihilated.

    For the hyoomunz... they already have enough variety, especially if the Halo CE-created vehicles were put in and modded. :p Some sort of mortar vehicle would be the bee's knees, though... the Covenant have two now. :v Maybe human mortar rounds explode in the air and spread a certain degree.

    just had a thought, not only bring back elephant, but the different variants from WARS as well. that'd be cool.

    also civvy hog (spawn option for turretless)

    I would being back the Elephant, Hornet, Shadow, and Spectre.

    I would create a walker for the UNSC and call it the Rhino. It would be a giant armored walker that looks similar to a Rhino Beetle. The "horn" would be used to smash into enemy buildigs and large vehicles. Put some of these and some Scarabs in an Invasion game and you have a recipe for epicness.
