The cockpit seems to have very low visibility for an aircraft with that fat canopy structure, but as a whole it looks amazing! I think it was like that in Reach anyway though.
This looks pretty sick, is this from Halo Reach? I haven't played it so I this isn't familiar to me. Regardless of what the original looks like, I think you did a very nice job texturing this.
I can tell you that you aren't missing anything but no it isn't, halo reach's falcon has more of a pelican green look to it, this is more light. But yeah, the falcon is in reach.
Why on earth couldn't they put serious time, effort, and most importantly love into a Halo RTS that could be awesome? This mod is exactly what I and probably others wanted, but there won't be a massive online community to play with for it. Ughhh, Halo was originally going to be an RTS in the first place.. So why can't Bungie go make a decent RTS for us console gamers? I can't find a single good RTS game for XBOX 360 that hasn't had it's servers shut down...
Awe man, negative karma... I find myself feeling very dumb every time I express my opinion. =,( A smart man doesn't try to interfere with other people's business. I hope whoever did that didn't take me for a HW hater. I used to play it all the time, and now I'll play when I'm feeling nostalgic. I'm ranked General on there for goodness sake! If you don't believe me look up my GT "NeighborlyNinja" if they still run the stat thing on their website. Heck, I'll play you!
Always dreamed of seeing the Hornet and Falcon together in the same game... Very nice work although the skin looks a bit too bright, perhaps by making it slightly darker it'd look better.
Yes but when a single hero unit or ODST Sniper takes up an entire garrison slot...the same as a marine squad...you need to make an exception. It would be pointless to only fly in a single unit at a time and a single marine squad would get squashed without support anyway.
I like the texture! But same as some other dude up there mentioned, the cockpit and top engine-things look...odd. Not like, proportion-wise, but something just looks off about them...AND the color (if you're trying to be faithful to the Reach iteration) should be moar gween. :3 GOOD JOB THOUGH!!!
Great job Farseer, cant wait to use in on the field
will it have machine gun or grande launder turrets on the side?
and how far do you think you are done on ground models, or are you adding extra's in as you go?
I'll give it a shot, but my previous comments on my ablity to model bumpy things like that still stand. I'll get back to you on Monday (16th) with a model WIP or a mess.
that is an awsome model, when the new version comes out i want to recreate the battle on reach, where the covanat army and the unsc army crash together.
U all know what im talking about.
The texture isn't as faithful to the original as most of my models...but I kinda like it anyway. Feedback is welcome, as always.
Texture looks fine what are you talking about?
he means the cockpit, and top engine housing's (to me this looks different anyway...)?
honestly, i don't mind.
To me it looks much more sleeker then before (if there is a difference) I don't care though it is still looking AWESOME!!!!
ya, looks great

Reach wasn't too bad...better than ODST and HW at any rate...

Very nice Farseer I like it.

That looks great! I look forward to using this when the Spartans are added for troop drops!
You're Back!! :) anyway, love it all, the thrusters are a little flat, but if you put FX on there they should look fine
I love the textures, but I think it looks a bit pointy, I guess its the cabin that look a bit stretched.
As with all of my models, this was made using profile schematics...the proportions are more or less correct.
I don't know what it looks like in Reach that well but the propellers look a little small. It may just be the angle the picture was taken though.
Looks great Farseer well done! Question: are the infantry units being transported visible from the sides?
This isn't possible in EaW, that I know of.
This is fantastic! I like your take on it. I think I do agree that the propellers look a tad bit small but that's no big deal.
awsome but a falcon isn't capable of transporting 2 squads of marines. Just pointing out please no rage comments.
Yes but when a single hero unit or ODST Sniper takes up an entire garrison slot...the same as a marine squad...you need to make an exception. It would be pointless to only fly in a single unit at a time and a single marine squad would get squashed without support anyway.
Wow, that looks amazing, and i really like the texture parts that are different then reach's, i think you should keep it
Yeah, it's from Reach.
Also...It actually looks extremely similar. Biggest difference is the canopy, really. And it looks cooler the way you did it.
Also, the two squads may be a balance thing. Not sure.
Finally (combo breaker! Didn't use also), maybe these could come in pairs? One with the machine guns and one with the grenade launchers?
The Falcon is actually going to be a semi-powerful unit so deploying in pairs would be OP, I think.
Ah. Will it fall to a single scorpion shot? It does in Reach.
Or will it fare better against heavy armor?
Probably take two hits.
Instead of Reach multiplayer's one hit from a wraith or scorpion?
Yep. Since the AI can't attempt to dodge a tank shot, having it die in one hit would suck...
Awesome, indeed.
Thank you everyone for the feedback :)
Incredible work as always can't wait to see it in a ingame video deploying troops :P
Lol! Hint, hint right?

I think this color fits in with the rest of the mod's UNSC crap so far. I know it isn't totally faithful...but I still like it how it is, I think.
Great job Farseer, cant wait to use in on the field

and how far do you think you are done on ground models, or are you adding extra's in as you go?
Ground units weren't done when the beta was released...so I'm still working on them, yes.
The side cannons will be machine guns. Standard (non-grenade) type projectiles are easier to implement plus I just like the machine gun better.
Dammit Farseer, I was halfway done :P I guess you'll need to tell me something else to do.
Oh snap....well at least you weren't all the way done :( Sorry! Um...lets see... I still need the Revenant. Wanna give that a whirl?
I'll give it a shot, but my previous comments on my ablity to model bumpy things like that still stand. I'll get back to you on Monday (16th) with a model WIP or a mess.
Well worth the wait.
I like it, so when will we have it In game :D?
Awesome, don't you think the Falcon belongs to the UNSC Army?
That's amazing
i just jeezed a bit...
Awesome sauce. is the pelican gonna be a ground unit?
that is an awsome model, when the new version comes out i want to recreate the battle on reach, where the covanat army and the unsc army crash together.
U all know what im talking about.
