I'm betting that the carbine is a charge shot weapon, I've heard that it can fire fast and is the like the covenant version of the battle rifle, and that its a sniper weapon. If you charge it all the way, its a strong sniper, and if you tap it fast, its a fast firing weapon.

those are not plasma pistol shots. And one importent thing i noticed. When you die in Halo you drop bolth weapons, so I think that he was not duel weilding the shotgun.=)

The little flower thing is the activator on a plasma grenade. The guy with the shotgun dropped it because he is dying. Also, we have no way of telling what kind of energy weapon those plasma shots are coming from. It could be the pistol, could be the carbine. They might have changed what the pistol shots look like in Halo 2.

The Spartan is dieing and droping his other weapon makeing him look like he is dual weilding. AS for the Carbine shots..... there Plasma pistol shots im 99.999999% sure that thoughs are plasma shots and the carbine shoots out projectiles.

Those shots don't look like Plasma Pistol shots- while a plasma pistol does fire recognizable bolts, they don't have that long of a trail following it.


PP shots(lol) has a larger discharge size and without a visible comet core like these do.


that's halo 1. many things have changed. The ghost now has "pimped out" ground effects. it didn't in halo 1. They could have changed other things too...

I don't know why the Carbine is being considered the sniper rifle of the Covenant...that's a different gun. Also, why would it shoot projectiles? It's a Covenant weapon, and they think bullets to be terribly inferior to energy weapons. I'm betting the carbine is an energy weapon, just like all the other Covenant weapons.

There is one weapon that shot out prjectiles in Halo one, it was the needler. Plus bungie said it shot out projectiles, but they must be more advanced than human projectiles.

what about that comet core maybe thats the projectile and maybe it explodes on impact and what does bump mean people keep saying that.

If you look hereClick Here you will see a plasma pistol shot. If you look Click Here you see what I think might be a Carbine Salvo Totally Different!

Oh, okay, cool. I didn't know Bungie had released that little treasure of info (i haven't been around for the last few weeks). Also, I completely forgot about the needler.

Obviously the first link is a charged up plasma shot and the seconed is a none charged up shot.

I see what you mean. But who knows? That was the overcharge plasma shot. But that probably doesn't matter. Maybe those are the Carbine's shots. Although that makes it look like an energy weapon...I am so confused.

Did anybody else notice that they have a red spartan coming in the warthog. And I'm pretty sure he's the enemy because there's another green spartan with a battle rifle zoomed in on him, but maybe he's checking him out, making sure he's not an elite...

Nope its green team vs. Red Team. If he was a elite it wouldnt matter since elites and spartans can be on the same side.
