If you could design your own weapon for halo 2, what would it be like? I would make a covenant mini-gun. It would shoot about the same as the warthog, but you can carry it around. The bullets would be small glowing purple balls and cause about as much damage as one flood spore(when on legendary, not easy). It would carry 200 and would be able to be reloaded but it would take about 5 seconds to reload. You could be able to carry up to 800 extra shots for a total of 1000 when you have full ammo. Tell me what you think of my idea and give some of your own.

Two of them here....

The M24-B Reaver Chain Gun: A Heavy Support Weapon which Halo lacks. Large caliber rounds, insane firing rate and long range. Drawbacks. Takes a full second to cycle up to speed in order to fire. While firing, limited to walking speed only as the gun bucks in your arms and you have to fight to keep the reticle on your target. Due to its complete lack of accuracy it is normally held as best as possible in the general direction of your enemy.

This weapon, normally mounted in fixed positions can be held aloft by a Spartan and it cycles multiple chambers via an electic motor and battery.

Special Note by Gen. Anders: All attempts to use this weapon in Spartan Simulated Combat drills show that not even Spartans can wield this Reaver in Close Quarters. All who have tried have failed. At close range any Elite or Spartan can easily leap out of the firing arc the moment they hear the Reaver powering up. Once firing it cannot turn fast enough due to the recoil to follow the target.

Primary Purpose: Infantry Suppression
Secondary Purpose: Anti-Vehicle
AVAILABILITY: Rare
ZOOM: None
ROUNDS - DEFAULT: 480
ROUNDS LOADED PER USE: Chain Fed
MAX AMMO CAPACITY: 1920
ROUNDS FIRED PER SECOND: 40
RELOAD TIME: 8 seconds (Only needs to be reloaded when new ammunition is found)
MELEE RATING: Impossible
HIT DAMAGE: 60-80 DU per Round.

------------------

MX-3 Grapple/Rapple Gun

Assigned to Spartans and ODST's performing special assignments the MX-3 is used to access areas and engage enemies where they least expect it. Physically the device resembles an overlarge pistol with an extendable stock and can sometimes be mistaken for a single shot grenade launcher at first glance.

The gun fires an advanced alloy piton with extreme velocity, trailing a cord created using carbon nano-tubes. Once imbedded in rock or metal, three prongs drill backwards, mooring the piton to sufficiently support the weight of a half ton Spartan. Once imbedded the person using the piton can wind in the cord, ascending, by pressing the "in the right thumbstick". He can unreel, lowering himself, by pressing the "Left thumbstick". While suspended in the air he can look freely by using the right thumbstick as normal and can shift his weight, allowing him to swing with the left thumbstick. Other options include jumping off of a surface for faster downwards movement and greater swinging arc and cutting the cord by pressing the "Y button" once.

Unfortunately, using the MX-3 counts as a single handed weapon. Thus, only one other single handed weapon can be used at the same time as the MX-3. (For two reasons, one... holding a two handed weapon is kind of silly, and two- we need the Y button to cut the cord)

This would be an amazing OPTIONAL weapon allowing an entirely new dimension to multiplay. It is also the Sniper's dream, allowing him to reach sniper's perches in the most inobvious of places.

Mactad, that would be awesome...just imagine, pelted to death by purple balls of doom!

If I could design my own weapon, it would be big ol' blocks of C4! maybe 500 years from now they'll have C24 - blow up a bunch of stuff. Bayonets? Knives? think of flinging knives at the grunts...

SB-117

Errmm a rifle that fires some kind of magnetic beam and can be distorted by metal. It would work on a battery so it would probably be covenant.

It would fire a straight beam for a good range and when it hits and opponant it would stay locked on to that opponant until it overheats or you release the trigger. Meaning you could use burst beams or take the chance of it overheating and use the lock on, it would slowly draw the opponant to you as well so if your dual wielding you can pull him to you (especially if hes airbourne) and then spray him in the face with bullets.

Primary Purpose: Close-quarter combat
Secondary Purpose: Anti-infantry
AVAILABILITY: Rare
ZOOM: 2x (perhaps when you get a lock on, it turns dark red)
ROUNDS - DEFAULT: n/a
ROUNDS LOADED PER USE: Battery powered
MAX AMMO CAPACITY: n/a
ROUNDS FIRED PER SECOND: n/a
COOLING TIME: 4 seconds
MELEE RATING: (whats this?)
HIT DAMAGE: 30 per second lock on.

Lets call it the Wave Rifle or something...

I like Mactad's only I think it would be better as a giant needler cannon with all the same stats. It would look so cool with all the tracer fire.

Mine would be a 1 handed SMG called the C-63 HILTZ.It would look like an oversized uzi,but would shoot amazingly faster for short bursts (barrel would burn).It would have 3 small clips in one armored case feeding the gun ammo.You would click on button to release all the clips for reloading.Another burden is bad accuracy... but accuracy was made better by using bursts but not so much.

I'll be on my own side.

M205 Grenade launcher and some Stinger missiles

Human impact grenades like in the end of Saving Private Ryan(they arent really impact grenades but they were used that way) Would be a grenade classification not a weapon with a launcher. not as cheap as fuel rods can be. also never overheats obviously

Remote Mindes: You can hold four at a time, you can set them all down, but you can only blow them up individually, and the order they were set is the order they will go off, to reduce lag (there's a 3 second pause between 'em) People could set up a lot of mines.

You have to have your remote out in order to set them off, which means losing the ability to use weapons. You can't melee anybody while holding the remote either. You have to be within 15 meters (the HUD's motion tracker distance) to trigger the mines.

In order to make it easier for the victim there will be a red light on top but very small, and the mine will be about the size of a teleporter ring. And when you press the switch on your remote, it will signal the mine and the mine will blink twice and make a double beeping sound, and within 1 and a half seconds (this is seperate from the three second pause between several mines) evaporate anything in it's path (about the size of a frag grenade blast).

I'm still not certain on wether this would be treated as a normal weapon, or a rare weapon like the plasma sword, or what. How was this done in goldeneye? I forgot.

I think this would work well with base defense, or for the snipers/sneakers trying to get some easy kills in dark areas. Mines can be shot, and blown up just so you know.

Some of you may think this would be too easy for people to avoid, but think about all the careless people, and the others just watching out for the Spartans/Elites, and with YOU having the control someone coming right around a corner wouldn't even have a chance to react.

I would make a dual covenant plasma rifle related gun. it would shoot the same thing as the plasma rifle except it would shoot a little slower but would be more powerful.

BOOM!!!

Sorry i was just imagining what my weapon would do. Cause mean nasty explosions. A covie form of the shot gun, but fires out a cloud of needles that track. There would be enough needles in one "round" that would cause the big explosion, hold eight rounds and be re-loadable. Short ranged and mean. It would have a slow rate of fire because of the kick, just like the normal shotgun. Maybe this weapon would be too big to use by even spartans considering the size of the needles?

Or another covie shotgun that fires off eight plasma shots(like from the plasma pistol), battery of 100, and not reloadable. It would over-heat fairly quickly, but kick much butt at short range.

I just like weapons that kill stuff up close and personal.

I would have a sniper rifle that can be switched over to a assault rifle with just a few mods to the exterior of the gun. The actual gun would be designed around the late Walther WA2000 sniper rifle, with a slightly longer barrel. It would have a internal silencer, and the gun would use a explosive tipped sub-sonic round. For when you would want ot switch over to an AR for close combat, all you would have to do is toggle a selector swtich on the frame, and throw in the high capacity magazine. The barrel woudl be made of a more inproved version of the carbon/ graphite combination used in some rifles now. And the main pieces of the gun would be made of a more advanded carbon fiber mix. The only option to the gun would be the accesory of a 40mm grenade launcher that would be mounted in an over/under configuration similar to the FN F2000 and the current M16s used my the US military.
