Two things:
1. This belongs in New Mombasa
2. I loved the pistol, but it's the only weapon I use now. It needs to be toned down. If not, me and my BR will have to do.

I do love the pistol, but after playing with it for so long it gets monotenous. You always no what will happen; since the shots aren't completely acurrate whichever shots hit first or the head decides the winner. I would like it to stay be maby be harder to find or less plentiful. If we don't start with it it would balance the fight more.

I just thought of a real good reason for keeping the pistol. Using two pistols with 2X zoom. Say goodbye to all of your Elite problems.

You get your shotgun, I get my pistole. I guarantee you'd die five times before you took down any of my health. With the pistol all you have to do is keep your range and take out their head. Three shots (two for shields, one for fun) and you're gone.

I like the pistol. It's a great weapon, however double-weilding the pistol would be just a little bit too powerful. Then again, it would be cool to find a way to overpower double pistols in multiplayer.

the pistol was my savior in Halo i whopped everybody with it even when they had shotguns and rockets. every time my friend would get a shotgun first to fight the flood i would get a pistol because it is the 2nd best flood-fighter

just the pu$sy way to fight from a distance get in the close combat it's -blam!- when you get sniped out from across the map with a pistol, a sniper i can live with that but a pistol? and i have a shotgun everytime i play hangem high and i rarely die and always have the most points but my friends arent all the greatest and the only times i did die was when i walk up to someone with a shotgun and they throw a plazzy on me

its not -blam!- to fight smart
your the one who said give you a shotgun and youd take a guy with a pistol
hes no more -blam!- for shooting you from a distance with a pistol, than you are for shooting him at close range with a shotgun when he has a pistol. just smart play

Exactly right, thawack. That's why they need to take it out. So that people who consider themselves "Greatest Halo player of all time" just because they use a pistol, would get creamed time and time again. People who use the pistol seem to use the pistol 80% of the time. Besides, Pistol? Three shots? Ha. That is seriously overpowered. Down with pistol and up with Battle rifle. For it will pwn.

It wouldnt really make a difference if they took away the pistol because you can use the BR the same way, but it has more bullets in the magazine which makes it even easier.

The pistol is in my opinion the best weapon in Halo. If you are thinking on the strategic and usefulness side. Leave it in the game, but add a few upgrades, such as alternate fire or exploding bullets.

Halo 2 will be better because the weapons will be even more equal, thus requiring more skill for people to play better, instead of people just getting good with the human pistol, then whining when they start with the plasma one and get wasted.

2nd best?*raises eyebrow*too slow. 1st Best-Shotgun. 2nd Best-AR and PR. 3rd Best-RL.

It's 4th best. The pistol is a great weapon on the covenant and (if you're this type of person)a good marine killer so you can hide easier. But it is mediocre on the flood, if it was half as fast as the AR. . .uhhhhhhh why is it on this game? It's just not meant for the flood.
