So, what weapons do you usually like to have?

I usually like to have the sniper rifle and the pistol for maps like Hang 'Em High, Sidewinder, and Blood Gulch. As for smaller maps like Chill Out, Derelict, and Damnation, I usually have the sniper rifle and shotgun.

Pistol, Sniper. That's it. When you have the pistol, there isn't any real necessity for any other weapons. The sniper is just because it's fun to snipe.

In high definition baby!

I use the classic assault rifle and pistol in CTF and pistol and shotgun on Slayer.

1.Arkham Asylum, 2.Mass Effect, 3.Halo CE, 4.Mass Effect 2, 5.Halo 2, 6.Splinter Cell Double Agent, 7.Gears of War 2, 8.Medievil, 9.Oblivion, 10.Crash Team Racing

Just like i thought, all you need is pistol and shotgun, pistol kills everything but if someone with pistol gets too close, switch to shotgun and you are almost invincible. Thats the skill?

By the way is there some glitch or why is it sometimes Halo1 has really ridicilous autoaims and sometimes it has none? I recently played a lot of multiplayer and even on same level with same settings sometimes i didnt have to do anything and my reticle followed whatever others did and sometimes reticle sits still no matter what.

Assault rifle and Sniper rifle.

Though the Pistol is amazingly good, it's kind of hard to aim in close quarters compared to the AR, so I only use the pistol when in medium range (3 hit kill) but that's kind of pointless cuz in that range I just as well might be able to use the sniper.

And NO I'm not a noob that can't aim his weapon, but I find the AR to be a bit easier, and sometimes a bit can mean an awful lot when confronted with some n0oby punk with a shotgun.

Until you're too far away to hit us, while we're tearing your head off with our 12.7mm armor piercing explosive rounds.

Gotta roll around with Pistol and Plasma Rifle. One of the most lethal combos in the game.

Pistol isn't the only thing you need. You also need skill. Thats why all the pros run around with Pistol at all times unless they need quick vis with rockets. Can't beat the pistol.

wow, this transformed from friendly weapon chat to a "im gunna rip your throat out, my pistol is better than you".
put it like this, no pistol is that powerful, all assault rifles are more powerful in actuality. a .30 cal assault rifle will put a equally as large as a .50 cal handgun, and sorry to break it to you but the M6D is not just less than .50 cal, but not even real. no offense to bungie but they got the gun apsect wrong. the AR shoots 7.62mm rounds.... that equals .30 caliber, when you shoot an elite with no shielding, or even a spartan, they should just melt away into pieces with the first couple rounds.

hopefully this may help your dispute, or you will just start b-wording at me.

I usually have the sniper rifle and shotgun.

Ditto, for most of the time. Other times I have a pistol and a shotgun, or a sniper and a flamer, or even a flamer and a shotgun.

-*sig under construction*-
Achievements are like...

In Campaign, pistol (because it holds so much ammo) and shotgun (because it owns the flood.)

In MP, I usually stick with sniper and pistol. It is the most versatile, in my opinion.

No offence mate, but it's you who have got it wrong.

Guns in video games, even super-realistic ones (which halo is not) still have to be balanced out and made to fit into the weapon set and gameplay. That is the primary consideration above all else. Realism is not important in Halo.

Pisol + Shotgun

or

Pistol + Plasma Rifle

With either of those, I'm a happy camper.

Edit: Not "camper" in the sense of style of play.

First weapon is usually plasma pistol
Second is pistol/sniper or rocket.

PP is good against all enemies (except mabey Hunters). Its quick, powerful and common. So remember, when voting, choose Plasma Pistol.
