Subject: Good weapons bashed and dumbed up

I always offer fair game and usually allow some "extermination" of my teammates. I think that anyone should be able to play Halo or any other game they please.

I hated how Bungie turned 2 of the best weapons,the magnum and assault rifle,into 2 bad-all-around weapons. The magnum no longer has a scope, the assault rifle no longer has a 60-round magazine.

ill agree with you the pistol really bites in number 2 because there is no scope and the assualt rifle isn't in halo 2 so it cant have a sixty round mag.
Also do u know y the huragok arent in the games??

It seems reasonable that they could add a scope to the pistol when single-wielding. It should have one. That assault rifle is more powerful now though, even if it does have a smaller magazine. The original weapons were superior.

The original weapons were unbalanced, and unsuitable for proper online play.

I suppose that is the reason given, but it seems to work fine for Halo PC. It makes it more accessible to a broader audience, but I think the weapons in Halo are acceptable. There's balance in spawning with unbalanced weapons. If everyone has an unbalance weapon, it ends up being balanced.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

*Sigh* Yes the good old days of pistol siniping and charging folks down with your assault rifle. Where did it all go?

They were more balanced than halo 2's.
