If / When you play Halo 2 in Multi-player, which weapons would you use?
Why would you use them,
and how would you use them (in what situation)?

A good combo I had though of would be a sniper rifle and the plasma sword. You could bring down your enemies before they get to you and if nessesary get into a close combat fight when they want to get close and personal.

Sniper rifle (unsure if the Human or the Cove one, but one of them) and the energy blade....got all ranges covered then.

i would use dual plasma rifles. i would use them to super slow and enemy flag runners so its hard for them to make it and fellow teammates to kill them off. i would also use it in close quater combat to minimize misses and to strafe around an enemy who can barely move while i pepper him to death with hot plasma.
i would use them mercilessly while yelling "wort wort wort!" lol.
of course i'll use other combinations but dual plasma rifles has a lot of appeal, especially to covie fans like myself.

you can dual weild with the plasma sword OR any sniper rifle as they're dual handed. (well the sword isn't but you still can't dual weild it)!
realistic ideas please as in single handed weapons (the plasma rifle can be used single handed before you have a go at me)

oooooooooh i get you sorry. it would be the plasma pistol and carbine then. it deals with all ranges and can drain pesky shields. i apologize for the misconception.
i would probably replace the pistol with the sword now and then for close up one hit KO's

Another sick arse idea would be to have the same (2xPlasma Rifle) and discharge one of the 2 PR so when it has to cool down you can use the other one while you wait, and then continue this strategy.

yep, the plasma rifle has new found ultra potential! (i can see them being removed in a lot of customisations)

I also can't see why anyone in Halo 2 would complain about the duel needlers since it has been improved and will be lethal. Needler could also combine with the Plasma pistol and when a discharge of PP has blown your enemies shields back to Hell! you unload a clip of crystals and they are literally screwed

Two sniper rifles is pretty good but it would never work.

Nope dude you need a mid range weapon too.Useless with a sniper in short range and pathetic with a plasma sword on long range.
Any way i would use the needler and plasma rifle as a dual wield and the covy carbine as a second.Perfect for killing people in tight corridors or persons in a tank (The needler was great for me against tanks in Halo MP :) Even better now,when all the vehicles are destructible!!!!!

I wouldn't mind having a long range and mid-range since that's what i did in Halo 1 (Sniper and Pistol).

Are you really from Norway?

I'ma going to bed now since it is 10:30 pm down here in Aussie Land.

I will probably dual wield plasma pistol and SMG or needler and SMG to get rid of their shield.. then slap the crap out of them with the plasma sword.

Battle rifle for long and medium range and duel SMGs (they're as close as I'll get for the MA5B) for the close up work.

Elite in background: Wort!

it seems to me that the smg is not that good, take a look on how much at very close range it took to kill that elite, and he couldnt move
