New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

sent this email to this website as I realised how stupid they were


Heres the email I sent.


BEWARE THE GREAT WALL OF TEXT


Okay Im guessing ur mature ppl and arent going to reply with something like u suck mah balls lollolololololol as u say u hate the little kids that r rampant in XBL. This is my argument I think H2 is pretty lame and I realised this when I first played H3. But H2 multiplayer is almost as bad as H1. Y u ask? Because of the thing u hog and support the most the pistol. What makes Halo games different is that theres stratagy. There is no stratagy in H1 but it is evident it was supposed to be there as some weapons have advantages other weapons dont. The Plasma Rifle for example drains shields fast and paralyzes foes but it is not used because it doesnt kill people as fast. And u boast that u have skill in H1? The pistol does not take skill all u need to do is practice at being steady and aiming thats it 4 shots is all it takes. I play Halo PC regularly and I hate how the pistol is the only weapon used its just too powerful u may say that Bungie r sell outs because of sticky aim and homing rockets but u kno what H1 has? Unboardable and invincible vehicles a noob can easily get on a Ghost and go on a splatter fest unless someone has a rocket which usually the guy in the Ghost does. U may complain that SMG is the worst weapon ever and ppl always kill u with the BR but u kno what? Same thing in H1 it happens to me all the time the old AR just tuned into the SMG and the pistol to the BR. Another thing is how strong the shotgun is it can fire at people from like 20ft away but the worst thing is that it can fire like 15 shots without reloading and 2 shots of a shotgun can kill a guy in a Banshee. Whats that u say that H2 has the noob combo? Guess what H1 does too and its the pistol they just put in one weapon. Dont even have to go get a plasma pistol. And then u make fun of H3? I think H3 will rock as it balances all weapons and starts u off with the good old AR. U may complain and say it doesnt have ur noob gun and it does except this time u need skill to use it as it lacks scope and fires slowly so maybe theres something for everyone. The only thing I could agree with u is the sniper is too strong and it picks off players easily I can snipe but I dont like too as theres no challange.

TL;DR please? It's called paragraphs and proper grammar, use them.

Anyways, judging from that pile of -blam!- I just read, you're saying how the Halo weapons are over-powered, no? Halo takes plenty of strategy, I hardly ever see people using the pistol also, it's always the AR or vehicles or something else. Strategy isn't whoring weapons, strategy is putting the people with the weapons in the right place, and you going the right way and making sure your ass don't get blasted running away with the flag.

The weapons are balanced nicely too. You say the pistol takes no skill, you have to learn to aim, key work, learn to aim. Aiming is something Halo 2 almost lacks, and something you need to learn in Halo, aiming is a skill. The pistol is a good all around weapon, but when people get excessively good with it, they use it everywhere, but get a guy excessively good with a shotgun, and a guy excessively good with a pistol, and put them at close range, and the shotgun guy will win. Same goes for the sniper guy. That's fair balance. A shotgun guy will win in close range, sniper at far, but a pistol, in the hands of a god player, will do well in all. In the hands of a bad player, not so much.

You can also take out Ghosts with nades, sniper, FRG, shotgun, pistol, assault rifle, I've killed people in Ghosts with them all, really, it's not that hard.

The shotgun can't kill people at 20 feet, maybe take their sheilds down, but it can't kill them right away. Also, the shotgun can't fire 15 shots without reloading, it only holds 12. The Halo 2 shotgun can't even kill people, so many times have I grabbed it, fired at the person from POINT BLANK RIGHT UP IN THEIR FACE RANGE, and it did nothing, I did it again, nothing, and by this time, my character's body was on the floor dead, and I was pissed at Halo 2's sillyness. Plus, the Banshee thing is balance. Say, the Banshee guy grabbed the rocket, now what do you do? Kill him with the shotgun, of course!

The noob combo, you say all you need is the pistol. Look at the Halo 2 noob combo, the PP bolt can travel you BEHIND A WALL, and take out your sheilds. The pistol bullets can not travel behind a wall, neither can the PP bolt in Halo. With Halo 2's magnetism, and Halo:PC's lack of it, the Halo 2 noob combo is much worse.

You fail, if you're getting your ass beat a lot, I'd be glad to help you out in making you better.

I was showing an email that I sent to some dumb website full of tards who hate H2 and glorify the lameness the pistol was I can say I am pretty avarage and that doesnt mean I suck Im just not as cocky and ignorant as other players I still play H1 and yes I do use the pistol from time to time but its sux cus theres no interesting uses of all the weapons in fact every game is pistol, sniper and shotgun and the other weapons r never touched this has always troubled me when I play but it ended when I played H3 that game is great and I cant wait to play it oh and I can spell and punctuate better that most ppl but Im just lazy

I am also an IRIS winner. I was in the 2nd batch, and have the gamerpic, t-shirt, and signed paperback of Ghosts of Onyx by Eric Nylund. If you don't know what IRIS was, here: http://halo.wikibruce.net

Site was last updated back in January and it expires in less than a month, why is this not in Halo 2 forum?

I would too, but I don't have the time or patience to teach him the fundamentals of Halo: CE. Surprisingly, crouching, jumping and reloading constantly helped a lot!

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

uhhh wait, you gripe about the pistol and it being over powered and overused. what about halo 2, with the BR/PP combo? it is the same story just in the form of an animation glitch. your argument is nill dude. not to mention that the sniper, shotty and rocket are the exact same way in both games. basically the pacing was changed between the two games. halo was heavily about accuracy, yes the pistol was hella powerful but you needed to know how to aim. halo2 was about combo and power weapon whoring.
