There will be no waypoint over Lasky and the player will not be able to gain access to a Jetpack, but he/she can still progress by running ahead of the Mammoth, which will trigger its departure and unveil the Jetpacks. Not spawning the Pelicans opens up many possibilities, such as backtracking to the start after visiting the crashed Pelican site (normally, there is a combination of a soft kill zone and invisible barrier accompanying warning dialogue from Palmer when he/she tries to go there). Most prominently, this can be used to pilot one of the aforementioned Pelicans by deloading its AI pilot, though this can only be done Co-op.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmxgxl_4dm4 '''YouTube''' - ''Halo 4: Fly a Pelican on "Reclaimer" (Trick/Glitch Tutorial)'']</ref> | ||

When he does, the player can free him by meleeing him away from the wall and immediately walking into him, though it will take some effort. It is much more easier to use a well placed grenade with Cowbell skull enabled, though it may take several tries. When freed, the Spartan will board the Mammoth as intended, unless it has already taken off. | * The SPARTAN-IV sniper at the beginning of the level seems to always experience a pathfinding glitch that prevents him from boarding the Mammoth.
