I wonder: how large is the pilar of autumn? according to the last mission, it's at least 10 kms long, according to the intro, comparing to the people seen through the bridge and the fighters flying around, it's hardly 500 meters long...
Is keeping scales right that difficult to achieve?

[StratComm]

Yes.  Yes it is.  Especially when you aren't even thinking about scale, as Bungie obviously was not.  I think the PoA was somewhere in the neighborhood of 1.5km in theory.  But as you say, every external view of the thing is a different size it seems... (the one where the EP launches is probably the closest to true scale)

[Knight Templar]

Err.. IIRC you drive at least 2k in the last level.

and it even has its own built in canyon!

[Knight Templar]

And jumps.. and giant unbridged gaps.

This time bullets bounce off their skin, they stab you with their knives and whomever's left they shoot with their "eyes" beam cannon.

It's a shoulder beam canon
