Pardon Our Dust.

Who said they couldn't have been emergency deployed and deployed BEFORE the POA crashed? :science:

In the book (Halo: The Flood), it said the ODST guys dropped down in their HEV pods, when they were evacuating the POA.

Also, aren't the drop pods too big to deploy anything more than perhaps 3 from a single pely?

The Halo 2 E3 2003 Demo shows them in the pelican. Also, Pelicans don't launch HEV pods. The HEVs are quite large and would make no sense on a pelican.

So this means that you can just have clusters of 6-10 pods placed in parts of the map close to objectives.

E: WTF? Who changed my user title to "Desolated Moon?"

The HEV pods themselfs are approximately 18 feet tall.

Well, i messed around with the model a tid bit. I also made some new bitmaps and shaders to get a feel for the direction i wanted to go. Then i chose which one i like and built upon it. here's some screens a a short vid showing the one i chose:

Nice, it looks better now. Less over powering crispness :P

Beautiful- much better. It blends on with the environment as well as being cool-looking. :)

I like the one in the middle on the first pic. Or if not, maybe make the one you chose a bit lighter?

'nade belt is still sorta iffy, but whoa.

Looks alot better
