Pardon Our Dust.

Covie drop-pods (like those at the end of the original Halo 2 demo).

Just a suggestion.

Just wondering, will there be many battles on cliffs, and bridge battles too? And just generally big battles on high and dangerous areas?

In short, yes.

However, we still haven't decided what the balance will be between air/ground yet, nor the balance between cliff/bridge.

[Needles]

In short, yes.

:awesome:

Killa_ftw has been working on the drop pod thing for a while. At this point, it doesn't look like it'd be a viable option.

[Masterz1337]

They weren't a viable option.

So you make athe pod that, when it hits the ground, it gets "destroyed," creates a big cloud of dust around it, spawns a garbage item shaped in the form of the front of pod, and spawns an elite in the dustcloud.

(Though it will look like crap for people without particles turned on.)

[SnaFuBAR]

I'm totally fine with that. Hey, Masters, can you explain why they're not a viable option?

That's a good idea.
But what if the pot just hit the ground, got "destroyed", would have a cloud of dust around, then an angry elite would just jump out of the cloud at you.
