: Really, man? The Pelican? I mean, I can understand some of the ire regarding
: certain changes, but the Pelican I'm actually excited about. We are
: FORWARD in the fiction. I'm extremely glad that we finally have some
: changes to some of the visuals we've been seeing for around ten years now.
: So the UNSC has a redesigned Pelican. How is that
: "franchise-irreverence" when our actual military does the same
: thing from time to time? I think the Pelican change is awesome. I think
: the new Phantom looks slicker. I would've loved a bit more of an updated
: Banshee as well, but hey.
: Grim
Honestly, I'm not THAT torn up about the Pelican, it was just the latest in a long line of annoyances, and it could just be the angle that is unflattering. I also agree, the Phantom IS slick. :)
The Warthog and FUD however; no amount of flattering angles will change the fact that they blatantly threw consistency out the window. I'm very familiar with how industry (aerospace or otherwise) changes designs over the years, I work in that area and in fact I'm usually the guy drawing some of those designs. But the Hog especially sticks in my craw, because it's just such a HUGE leap backwards in technology, which makes absolutely NO sense, since as you said we're FORWARD in the fiction.
