I loved using the pistol. The only thing that pissed me off about it was that it was unrealistic. How is it that a pistol has better accuracy at medium distance than a assault rifle? Does the Beretta 92 have better accuracy than the M16 or M4 carbine? Does the Beretta's 9mm round shoot as far as the .226 round used in the M4 and M16? I dont think it does, but I could be wrong.
What Bungie needs to do is to just eliminate the scope, and bring down the distance on it, so that its the perfect weapon for close encounters, and that the rifle will be the weapon people will want to use for medium to short distance shooting. The explosive tip is fine, and it will help balance the gun out compared to the SMG.
I agree, the fact that it had excellent accuracy for a gun with no damn barrel was downright unrealistic... the origional pistol was going to look actually "cool" before it was changed IMO...
I also agree on how it should be changed... It should be what pistols are designed for, close quarters combat... Not an explosive tip, semi-auto sniper rifle that it was in Halo.
Down the accuracy and lose the scope and I'll be happy...
