It's a game, it doesn't need to be realistic, and you need to get better, and think of a strategy other than "charge straight at the dude" to kill him. I usually have no trouble in doing so.

I think what you mean to say is "Halo 2 and myself does not mix."

well they could make it more realistic and have 1 sniper bullet kill you anywhere if you would like that


also it is 100% balanced it is powerfull but if you hit him with 1 bullet or anywhere near you grenade they unzoom (FYI you can shoot anygun accross the ap and hit them once) if you are getting killed ore than 3 times by the same guy in the same corner that is you fault that is not ours maybe you should just develope more skill

How about they just make it like gears of war? One bullet, and if you move it screws up your shot. That would solve everyone's problems.

NO. The fact that someone can crouch MOVE BACK AND FORTH, jump and STILL KEEP A GOOD AIM.

That is what i dont like., unfair. NO sniper rifle is like that.

Sniping in HALO2, and soon HALO3 sucks, is unrealistic, and not fair.


... Dude... its called SKILL

thank you samic it is not our fault you cannot kill one person (i suggest you dont ever p[lay snipers if you are gonna complain about getting sniped)

well heres the thing IT IS NOT GEARS OF WAR gears of war sniping is even easier than halo2 sniping that would lead to even more complaints besifdes gears of war sniping is 3RD PERSON if you havnt noticed halo is not 3rd person Einstein
an good realod doing more damage than not doing a good reload is even more unrealistic than moving while shooting is even though its not realistic if i could lift like a freakin 5000 pounds i think i would beable to keep a freakin 30 poind sniper steady freakin retards

Are Cybernetic suits and Energy Shields realistic?

no.

The Battle Rifle technically isnt realistic becauses he doesnt chamber a round when you run out of ammo and then reload.

Point is: NOTHING IN HALO IS REALISTIC


Hey, it's still fun.

Good, we are proud of you!, but just to let you know, this game wasn't meant to be realistic, who the hell knows what weapons armor people are gonna be like in that year. did u notice the giant halos in the game, those arent realistic, the aliens, nope, not realistic either, almost every weapon... yea, there fake too... this game is not supposed to be realistic, and u WERE complaining about a sniper killing you in one shot NOT being realistic, haha, go out there and get shot in the head with a helmet and see if you live idiot.... people can survive a sniper shot to the body if its in the right place and depending on the gun.... but this game is in NO way realistic, you just gotta deal with it or go play call of duty ( i like 2 better than 3)

hey retard it's a sniper and actually its pretty balanced because while your zoomed you have no motion sensor so you could sneak up behind them and BAM quick assassination unless there good and have a team mate behind them or constantly un-zoom to check motoins

Just think about this. Think realistic here, a sniper rifle. in real life one shot to the body will kill you. So if u think about it halo is down sizing the sniper rifle. So dont give me that crap!

WTF. Some geeks out there make this game feel really crappy. Especially if you are a beginner. They pick up that sniper rifle, which is totally unbalanced if you ask me) and just camp at a corner, and keep killing you as soon as you spawn.

Ofcourse there is no way you can shoot back at them, coz it takes you a LOT of bullets to take him down, but with a sniper TWO SHOTs can kill you!!!! Or one to the head!!!

That is just stupid, and really takes away from it. This game is sooo unrealistic in many ways, so why oh why does the damn sniper take you down quickly, Your still wearing the same armor? even on your head?


Just sucks. And now i c from the HALO3 DEMO, that they even made the ASSAULT rifle more powerfull, Also they did not tone down the sniper rifle, or fix the jumping.

Damn i hope those damn beta testers give some HONEST FEEDBACK, not just suck up, or they will be the ONLY ones playing


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOB!!!!!!!!

ive been thinking the same thing actually lately.

as halo 2 has gotten older and the people that have played it for SOO long the sniper has become a very powerful weapon because of the skill increase upon using it. so as that skill has increased it has created this unbalance of play because the guy with the sniper just has this complete power. i think they need to figure a way ot make sniping a little more advanced in order to rebalance the gameplay.

oh ya and is it just me or does it seem the guy with the sniper sometimes is firing more bullets then what you'd think the gun should have?

most guns in video games have some sort of aiming magnetism. by this i mean that its a bit of a plus for the holder of the weapon of choice, such as the sniper, because the game helps getting the reticule on target. notice how occasionally you'll hit a guy when it looks like you missed him. supposedly the magnetism for the sniper rifle was suppose to be turned down some more for halo 3 but i may be dreaming

Dude if ur gonna be such a mingebag why even bother posting! For 1 not all snipers camp u, i know i dont and im a massive sniper, but i also can kick ass in close combat! Some snipers out there just plain suck and only thing they can do is camp, they bring shame to my fellow true snipers!

Dude, just done get a negative attitude aight, i know that these sniper campers make u feel like crap, but by -blam!-ing liek this means u letting em win, fight back aight!

Sarcasm. Don't get too excited now. Yeah I know it isn't gears of war...I was mainly talking about making the sniper one shot and if you move it screws the shot up. I wasn't talking about the whole weapon system in the game "einstein." I'm not really supporting realism either, I'm just stating a point. Would this force a balance or would you hear all the snipers -blam!- at how you have to get a head shot? Maybe both, but I don't care. It's easy enough for me to take out a sniper so it doesn't bother me any.

You can have my gun when you pry it from my paranoid, mentally disturbed, physically-abusive, cold, dead hand

Sniper Rifle..BooHoo. Apparently the H2 is a Multiplayer game that requires a bit of team work.
So if your not a N00B. and can find a BR and Grenade and a team Mate, It shouldn't be a huge hassle to kill the sniper.
