Gamertag is a secret, it's linked, just hidden.

Was the gun any good? If it's like the blue plasma and it's just red, then it sucks.

Bringing you lame jokes, social awkwardness and the occasional good idea since 2008

Think the plasma rifle, but red, and it fires ALOT quicker. Dual wielding it in Halo 2 meant lots of pain for the brutes, but it overheated fast.

Spinning a plate on a stick is impressive, but if you try to spin three at once then you'll just end up digging porcelain out of your face.

I'm pretty sure the brutes were given the red plasma rifle as they were rising through the ranks and as soon as they overthrew the elites they were provided their own specialized weapons.

Hey, maybe Bungie was kind enough to put the brute plasma rifle in the ODST specific Halo 3 maps. That would be nice.

The Brute weapon, such as the Mauler, Spiker and Brute Shot, have always been around. They are made from the Brutes native technology. When the Brutes attacked Harvest they had Spikers(its also where the Brute Chopper was invented). I think in Halo 2 the Brutes were just unfinished. The Brute Plasma Rifle was probably created after the Brutes joined the Covenant.

Oh, well, woops. I guess disregard my comment other than the multiplayer aspect. I would love to see the brute plasma rifle as a level-specific weapon for the maps like Longshore and Heretic.

You be checking the files sharing yes? Good files yes.

They probably got dumped because as Brutes moved up in heirarchy and got to use their own pre-covenant stuff, they didnt feel the need to use it. And, plasma rifles were mostly used by elites, and after leaving the covenant probably took them with them.

I'm pretty sure that wasn't part of the divorce settlement.

I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left.

Doesn't it fire faster or something?

I remember using it in Halo 2 (one of the few times I actually played), and it was pretty cool.

It's always nice to have new (almost) weapons.
