It's meant to be strong versus vehicles, but weak versus infantry.

Vehicles might be able to sustain more damage than infantry, but the Gauss rifle is specifically designed to destroy vehicles. In other words, it does hardly damage to people.

E3 2003 hog.... I dont know if its still in there but it could be part of strategy. You could go with that and then have the laag hog in there like in E3 2003.

I'll be on my own side.

its GAUSS not GAUZE. gauze is like this stuff you put on a wound.its something you find in a first aid kit.

well if its strong enough to tear through and destroy an armored vehicle,then im sure it would have no problem tearing through a thin layer of armor and flesh.

I think it's "weaker" vs infantry b/c its a tiny slug when compared with the huge explosion of a rocket or the massive spray of the chaingun. So I think it would be like trying to hit someone up close with a sniper. You can do it. And it rules. But why not just use the Shotty or the AR ya know?

how would a tiny slug take out an armored vehicle?maybe a slug from an antitank rifle would be able to take it out. antitank rifles are similar to the .50cal sniper rifles we use today. an antitank rifle would completely destroy a human.there would be nothing left of that person

Its small as in a rocket has a 10 meter blast radius and the Gauss slug will only be like 6 inches in diameter. If you hit them with the slug they would die, but you have to hit them.

I'm going to say... I don't care if it's meant for taking out Vehicles or not, Whoever said it won't do good damage against a person should be given it right upside the head...

WHAT weapon in Halo that's good on a Vehicle is NOT good on a person? Rocket Launcher.. Blows people up.. Blows Vehicles up... Tank Shell.. Blows people up.. Blows Vehicles up.. Grenades.. Blows people up blows vehicles up...

THat being said. I'm really looking forward to the GAUSS Rifle. ( Thought it was a Rail Gun )

Okay, first, its the GAUSS Gun, Second, its uber-tight,Third, it is not confirmed if it is in Halo 2 or not, although I hope it is because it kicks so much arse. The Rocket 'Hog didnt replace it, so whoever said that is dumb. Also, if a gun is really good on a vehicle, its probably really good on infantry, although, it may not have as much range (it wouldnt be able to go as far up or down as the Rocket or LAAG Hog, which would balance the game out) I pray to god they have the Gauss Gun there, it is so tight.

hehehe, I'd like to see the Gauze Gun.

Ahh, I'm shot and bleeding!

Don't worry, I'll get the gauze gun!

I'm not making fun of you, I just think that it would be a funny gun.

Gauss rifles are awesome. Very high velocity makes them effective against armor - and lined up infantry. You are correct that anti-materiel rifles (like the Halo sniper rifle) can kill infantry with one shot, and so can other sniper rifles (the favored caliber is 7.62x51mm, or 7.62x54mm if you're Russian), but they don't leave nothing left as you said it. In fact, a larger round would just pass through the target, making it less effective than smaller rounds. Unless you're using JHP/JSP rounds, those would burst somebody if they were in .50cal. Still, the victim will die. So, I think whoever is hit by a gauss gun should die with one hit, even if it's through the skin of their vehicle.

The Gauss rifle is a great anti-vehicle weapon. But it will not be very effective against infantry because it is very hard to aim and has a tiny blast radius. If you don't know what I mean, try using the autocannon or the guass rifle in mech assault against the tiny people.

Some magazines called it a laser, but most called it a gauss rifle, so now it is the gauss rifle.

Bungie descried it as a Gauss Gun on the HBO forums about a year ago.
