Subject: CE Pistol return?!?!

Posted by: I K MART I
Halo 3 multiplayer was ruined by terrible maps, spawns, physics, and the lack of a useful starting weapon. The CE pistol could only improve Halo 3 multiplayer.
How would it improve it? It would make every other weapon obsolete. The thing kills so fast and from such a long range that all the factors you mentioned won't even have any real influence on the game anymore.

Looks like the H2 M6C with a scope. Issue solved.

That's a bit of an exaggeration. It would certainly work better with Halo: CE's weapon balance, but it wouldn't make all other weapons obsolete. It would dominate mid-range, and it would successfully bridge the gap between mid-range and long-range. Sure, it would make the BR/Carbine obsolete, but there are superior close-range weapons. The sniper rifle would still be superior at long-range.

I don't mean it exactly literally, but just look at the way Halo 3 currently is. A select group of weapons are used consistently, and everything else almost feels like it's for show.

I can only please one person per day.

Today isn't your day.

Tomorrow isn't looking too good either.

Its the Halo 2 Pistol with a scope.

And you already have the Halo:CE Pistol back - the CE Pistol is the M6D.....and the Pistol in Halo 3 is the M6D as well. The Halo 3 version just isn't an over-powered hand-cannon, unlike the CE version.

In E3 it looked pretty cool and could fire at a well rate. So mayby it could be the wip pistol from Halo:CE

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Its not in multiplayer because multiplayer is exactly the same as Halo 3- actually it IS halo 3.

I think it is weaker though.

wowser

Its a mix of the 3 really.

Multiplayer Gameplay
Halo:CE------------------Reach--------Halo2-----------------H alo3
Campaign Experience
Reach----Halo:CE-----------------ODST-----Halo2---------Halo3

Glad that Halo 3 garbage is dead, thanks to Reach.
Unfreakenbelievable!!

A M6C with a scope? Really? I would much rather have a M6G with a scope. The way I see it, there is no need for this weapon in MM; I'll still prefer the M6G. If this new Magnum turns out to be an 8-shot like the Carbine, then there really is no need to get excited about it. A 5-shot or less is the only way I'll like it.

EDIT: Although, many of guys need to remember, including myself, that the damage output in Campaign is different than Multiplayer. Was the M6D a 3-shot in the Campaign against Elites? No. They change the weapons' power for balancing Multiplayer. Thankfully, their "so-called" mistake for the 3-shot made the game back then so much more fun.

Wrong.The pistol in Halo 3 is the M6G.

12 shot clip, things are looking up!



My Halo experience will be complete if good ol' 3shot comes back :)

What about the Halo 2 pistol? This takes place during Halo 2 so...

  • 06.01.2009 2:48 PM PDT

I hope it still has the same melee!

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Actually its the M6C, due to this image. Model C


I don't give a crap if it's the M6C or the M16 or the effing DW40. If it's a three shot kill pistol with a scope then I'm excited.
M6C is the halo 2 pistol... not going to be powerful.

at least it had a high rate of fire to make up for it.

no the pistol should not return. A pistol should not be a power weapon like it was in H CE. Also the weapon we have now are fine. They all get the job done

You guys seem to be forgetting that EVEN with a full clip AND and chambered bullet, the H2 pistol failed to kill someone (All head shots, go ahead and try). The only way to be effective was to dual wield it.

From what I've gathered there won't be dual wielding in Halo: ODST. Not sure about Reach.

No dual wielding=Not H2 pistol (which SUCKS btw)= Greater chance of triumphant return of the 3shot

yes.

  • 06.01.2009 2:54 PM PDT

wow look at you people that are already making up crap like "it will now be the newest most versatile weapon that will dominate" . get over yourself, its just the crappy halo 2 pistol with a scope hints the name M6C(halo 2 pistol) i now understand why people cream over weapons like the BR.....put a scope on any weapon and it will be the new "versatile" weapon.

That is a fact. ODST doesn't have it's own multiplayer except for firefight.

Who's to say Bungie couldn't implement new weapons into the currently existing Multiplayer?


um...bungie? They have already stated that only the campain will be changed. Multiplayer, Forge, Theater, etc. will all remain exactly the same. (except for, of course, the new maps)

So sorry, Halo 3 Multiplayer will NOT be ruined with a scoped pistol :)

Halo 3 multiplayer was ruined by terrible maps, spawns, physics, and the lack of a useful starting weapon. The CE pistol could only improve Halo 3 multiplayer.

No, you're just bad at it, Halo 3 > Halo CE

I've already read all of the halo books today you stupid nerd. Plus Halo:Fall of reach twice.

I'm thinking a cross between the Halo 1 and Halo 2 pistol

looks like a scoped magnum to me.

It's a normal magnum with an attachment. You can see the normal magnum in that picture if you look closley.

  • 06.01.2009 3:41 PM PDT

It is the M6C with a scope but what difference does it make? It won't be featured in Halo 3 MP in any way, shape or form other than firefight which is Halo's version of Horde/Survival mode. Aside from that it will only be made available in campaign.

I died once...I respawned 5 seconds later, seeking revenge!!!

It doesn't look the same as the CE pistol, but it still looks cool. Maybe it'll work better, but that's unlikely
