Also Known as the M6C from Halo 2, But is this Weapon coming back? When Watching the trailer I noticed the Rookie or some other ODST wielding a black Magnum similar to the one in Halo 2.

At E3 he said it'd be closer to the Halo: CE pistol- which is far better :).

Two makes there more than speakers.

It's kind of a mixture of both.

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.

Looks like a hybrid of the 2. H1's zoom+H2's fire rate and power.

I saw the E3 demo, on IGN. Its basically a combination of the two weapons. Faster rate of fire, but you can zoom in. It looks awesome.

Nothing is better than gaming through the day, into the night, then back into the day. It's like when you finally push that power button you feel like you've accomplished nothing, but at the same time, you can't stop smiling.

It's basically a mix of both. It has a fast rate of fire and it has a scope.

I would imagine it to be like the CE pistol. None of the ODST's seemed to be holding battle rifles, which would leave a gap in the mid to long range weapon catagorie. I hoped Bungie would bring it back into the fight.

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

It'll be a great weapon for sure. If they include the M6G I hope it behaves like a revolver and dominates everything.

the beast magnum is back the one from Halo CE the one that zooms in.

  • 06.01.2009 6:49 PM PDT

It looks more like the Halo 2 magnum and seems to have its high rate of fire. But the bullets seem a little more powerful, and, well...it has a scope. So it seems to incorporate the strengths of all 3 games' pistols.

If you look at the pictures of the pistol on B.net here, you clearly see it say "Model 6C" which is the M6C aka the Halo 2 pistol.

HCE = M6D
H2 = M6C
H3 = M6G

It looks very cool. I can't wait for it. The Halo 2 Magnum was insane!

You can also clearly see in the gameplay trailer that it has a zoom, which means it is not the one from H2 but a mixture of H:CE and H2.

Its probably the same model from Halo 2 meaning the same damage and rate of fire, but it has the added scope like the pistol from Halo: CE. Just like the SMG, its the same gun, but it has different specifications for ODST soldiers.

"Bungie controls everything. You have no rights. Play nice."

For the last time its TURRETS not TORRENTS. A TORRENT is either a peer to peer file sharing protocol or a violently fast stream of water. A TURRET is a self-contained weapons platform housing guns and capable of rotation. And TURRENT isn't even a word.

I think that the actual gun will have the properties of a Halo 2 pistol (rate of fire/damage) with the addition of a zoom (notice the attachment under the barrel).

The ODSTs are known for having specialized equipment. If they can have a silenced SMG, why can't they have a scoped M6C?

EDIT: Wow... just saw the above post. Great minds think alike, eh?
