If you could choose what would be your favorite weapon from Halo and why?

Personally mine is the sniper rifle because when I get one I literally go on a rampage and kill any enemy in my scope.

There are millions (maybe an exagerrated number) of these types of posts, but I suppose I will answer yet again. Pistol is my favorite and best weapon. I find that I usually beat snipers with the fast shooting because they can't stay zoomed in long enough to hit me. It also deals huge amounts of damage in really short times, making it pretty much the ultimate weapon (in my opinion).

Pistol. I can take down any 1 anywhere with the pistol in one clip, snipers are cheap one hit kills is noob. assault sucks too because there not accurate and they dont do enough damage for the amount of rounds they fire.

The Assault Rifle, the quick rate-of-fire makes it an extremely effective weapon.

Anybody who calls the sniper rifle noob is the ultimate noobie themself. I would like to see you hit somebody in the head close range out of zoom while being plastered with the pistol.... furthermore anybody who calls any gun "noob" is just mad because they are too noobish themself to kill the person with the socalled "noob" gun.

exactly right! ( psh...some people say the shotgun is cheap...) my faveorite gun is the shotgun. i think its the best. im great with. i try to get people in buildings and around corners so they run right into me. but they coolest battle are shotgun v.s. shotgun inside a base in blood gulch. whoever has the quicker trigger finger wins...

Depends on the situation, all around the pistol is the best, three shot kills all around, The sniper is one of the best because if your close range in a level like chill out, and your any good, you can pull off a headshot unzoomed, and from any distance you can get a head shot pretty easy Shotty, the Assult rifle, and the Plasma rifle are only good close range my personall fav being the plasma rifle. I love to see some one tryin to shoot at me from a distance with the AR, I pull out my pistol, three shots, and their dead, Rocket launcher is good all around you just have to remeber to shot behind an oppent at close range so you dont blow yourself up, The needler and the plasma pistol suck in multiplayer, period. Although In campagin mode, i love to use the covant weapons almost all the time. Hit an elite with a charged plasma shot and then trough a sticky nade directly after that, easy way to kill an elite.

Rimfire14, you only say snipers are cheap because you suck with them. Snipers are my favorite.

Hey reel i got the same thing that fast finger clicking. I thought i was the only one to have it. people are liek it shots to slow well if you have the trigger thing down lol its alright.

Hey Elfston there is a full rod gun on HALO PC it still has the name HALO so i guess it still counts.

What weapon you use depends entirely on the situation. I personallt like Rocket Launcher because explosions are impressive.

The skill of rocket launching is timing the fire right so your enemy walks directly into its path. Something I come to call "Judging".

You can't call people noobs because they prefer a weapon like the sniper ore something thats like call people -blam!-s cause they like Lamborgini instead of Ferrari. I like the pistol (somebody hate it and thinks it's unfair but thats their opinion) because it's like an allround weapon it can zoom and it's presice so you can kill from a long distance and then it's very deadly in close range if you have a god aim ore else it's useless...

The weapon i like best in multiplayer is the rocket launcher... I like when you have to aim and predict were the opponent are heading and then when you make a precise hit it looks fabulos to blow another person up...
MUAHAHAHAAAAA!!!

Elfstone's just bored, wait till one of you askes something stupid again.

The Pistol is by far the beast weapon in Halo but i dont like its lack of range... not that its too bad just hate when it just wont reach a target too far away. Realistic ofcourse... pistol muzzle velocity isnt all that great anyway.

Personaly i love the Plasma Pistol in multi player and you usualy start with it too, i can bring anyone down with it and if i miss a few shots i've slowed you down enough to smack you in the face. My Plasma Pistol overheats probably a fraction over a second. and then i'll switch if i need to AR.

Best weapon combo: (for me)

Plasma Assault Rifle /// Human Assault Rifle

the PAR slows and eridactes any shields even super-shields and then the AR cleans up the healthbar.

Pistol to me is an Anti-Sniper tool, other than that i think it's cheap and dont use unless it's all i got. I'm an Assualt Player so no Sniper Rifles either.
