My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Wow, people really see the Halo games as a 2nd real world. You have to remember that Bungie is almighty the game isn't gonna become harder then any other Halo game if Bungie doesn't want it to be. It's all about game design, if it happens that Hunters are extremely difficult then Bungie wont throw loads of 'em at you, if they don't want it to be really hard.


Firefight is going to have random waves. If you happen to get Hunters 20 times in a row, your luck is crap but that's what could and will happen to some unfortunate souls.

Yeah, you would have to have the worst luck in the world to have that happen but wow, that would suck...

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

Not really, you have a pistol and an smg. Plus the pistol is scoped, one well aimed shot to the neck and say bye-bye to the hunter.

No. It takes a lot more than one shot to kill a hunter. In Halo CE, the pistol was extremely overpowered. This pistol isn't.

Look for the signs, the keepers of the flame. They will lead you to war, and perhaps, to victory.

Bungie has already said it's a one headshot kill pistol. The neck in a hunter counts as a headshot.

From which game? I have always aimed for the back of the Hunters. The head never works and I actually don't believe you.

Hunters don't really have a "head" considering they are a huge colony of worm-like creatures chillin together.

Did you see the blood coming out after you hit them? And with what weapon?

Are you talking about Halo 2 or Halo 3?

i bet they wont be scaled down at all

hunter have always been a pain from halo one until now why would they change?

Yeah, Hunters were hard in Halo 1. I found it especially hard to run behind them and shoot 'em one time with a pistol.

Headshots don't work I promise you. Because, like I've said, they don't have a "head".

  • 06.05.2009 10:43 AM PDT

Remember Reach!

I've never gotten any damage done shooting the Shooters in the head. The game might be reading it has hitting them in the neck but I've never gotten a headshot on them.

Well in the podcast they said something like

In the other halo games it was like, "oh look at hunter". And now in ODST it's like "holy crap a hunter!"


My guess is that it will be a little like the L4D tank, if you don't act carefully, you'll get beaten up in no time.

They have a spot without armor between the chest and head. And they do have a head.

They do not! They're a crap load of worms that are connecting to each other. Shooting it's left foot would be the same as shooting it's head. Worms are worms.

I'm sure we can just shoot it in the back once with our super-pistol.
It worked in CE...

With the new pistol the Hunters won't be hard. If you have ever played Halo:CE Hunters are a joke with the pistol, just two or three shots to their back and they go down.


Two or three shots... To the back?

You honestly failed at Halo: CE if it took 2-3 shots and a sneak up attack to kill a hunter. I got it one shot one kill every time when they took a swing at me.

Not that hard; just timing.

Pistol might be the same, but the hunters are different

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

Guns do the same amount of damage, it doesn't who's holding it ;)

  • 06.05.2009 11:10 AM PDT

Remember Reach!

I don't think Bungie would bring back the pistol and then return the hunters to their Halo: CE versions because that would remove a big challenge. Man, once again, I really need to listen to the podcast!!!!

Well, only one way to find out then. Wait for 22nd September and then we'll see if we can headshot hunters with the pistol.
