Firstly, thanks for the updates!
I do have a few questions though; 1. Are any of the weapon balance fixes going to affect the plasma pistol/ battle rifle combo because, quite frankly, I won't be too disappointed if it does? A charged plasma pistol combined with pretty much anything is virtually impossible to defend against and it has become increasingly frustrating to play against an entire team wielding them!
2. Have you thought about changing the default weapon set on some of the maps? The reason I ask this is because Blood Gulch (a.k.a. Coagulation) used to be my favorite map but now it is one of the maps I dread playing. The fact that we respawn with an SMG and have to attempt to kill a person half a map away with a battle rifle or worse still, a sniper rifle, is oftentimes pointless! I don't understand why the default weapons on Midship can be changed yet on some of the bigger maps we have to run into battle with a gun that practically serves no purpose in a long distance battle. If this is one of the things the patch fixes then Bungie will definitely have earned it's supreme status in the annals of gaming history! Quite frankly, you guys aren't far off already!!! The fact that I have virtually no desire to play any other game should be testament to Halo 2's greatness!
