My post was wrote not on just my opinion but on opinions of several people I play with both in real life, on XBC, and I've talked to at tournaments. The Ogres was qouted to have said that it would be a disgrance for Bungie to remove the pistol, and a mistake. HP-Darkman shared that same sentiment, so this opinion belongs to the most talented players in the world who have mastered every other weapon available on Halo.
hmmm...they must be good. whats the ogres rating? are they the best in the xconnect players? or are they not good? cuz my good friend dakotah, after i left his house stoned and drunk, told me about the -blam!- talking clan he fought against...the Ogres. yeah, he went with two newbs against three of them. he had 35 of his teams kills, and his team beath the crap out of the Ogres. i dont have the score offhand, ill call him up or talk to him, but you will know the whereabouts soon enough. so, there opinion sux ass. if you think the "better" you are the more important you opinion is, go F UCK yourself.
the pistol was overpowered. thats why they made it into the battle rifle. i hate halo players because they are the dumbest damn people ever. i think i said this before...you are dead wrong. ever see a dead horse? youre about as wrong as that horse is dead.
ps, i kick my friend, named dakotah, 's ass everytime ive played him. hes beaten me like 10 times my life. which is about 5 times the number of times i lost on xconnect. dont get into a pissing contest with me, please.
Ask yourself this, each and everyone of you, if the pistol in fact is overpowered, then isn't it balanced when its in the hands of each player? It's not unbalanced if we all have it, then it's simply a matter of who is the most skilled with it. The pistol is called overpowering simply because it's more abundant and the one who masters it can own others who use it as well. That's not overpowering, that's just plain and simple out playing.
teh needler is ten times cooler than the pistol. if the needler kicked a lot of ass as a gun, it would be the coolest fights ever. explosion, explosion, explosion... and lots of purple crap, and itd be awesome. sad thing is, we never get to start with a needler, so no one picks it up, and everyone likes playing custom to start with the pistol, cuz they think like you[or dont, however you like it]. there are other weapons in halo, that are more fun, but dont see the light of competitive play due to the pistol.
... then you really need to practice cause you have another 3 1/2 months of ownage and I trust Bungie will do the right thing, and give us all another weapon that will be equally as loved as the pistol if they do not bring it back.
the almighty BATTLE RIFLE! its like a fixed pistol! crazy! 12 shots of three round bursts! the pistol had 12 shots! a 2x scope, as well! its weaker when scoped[read; 1/3 the power]. oh, and its got a good melee attack, for more skillful fights. oh, and you cant autoaim spam the gun, cuz it shoots in bursts...
and one last retort...
Noone complains the sniper rifle kills in one shot from long range, and nobody complains the shotgun kills in one shot at close range.. but yet we complain the pistol kills in three shots at midrange? That in itself is absurd. Also to the guy posting post after post about killing 7 players with one clip, if you're not using shields then you're not playing with skill so don't brag about that. You may have great skill with the pistol but don't make illiterate post without thinking just to get flamed over. Just some advice.
that is the worst argument ever. it is "over powered". no one started counting. cuz being too powerful is being the pistol....just try playing halo. if you noticed, everyone seems to think its the best weapon, cuz they use it like it is. weird! and halo shouldnt have a best weapon. its more skillful to be able to takle a variety of different ways to kill your opponent or die from you opponent. more equals better. have you ever played a first person shooter with three guns? me neither. tho it sounds like itd suck...
and just to be a dick cuz im sick of pistol posts...
to the elite who is mastery of every weapon...
CS players are ten times cooler than halo players because they dont think they are the master of every weapon...cuz its a first person shooter. the type of game that requires the most amount of skill...the master is the best ever. HALO2 online rankings will show who is the best playing. until then, no one can claim to be master.
i quit this forum now. people that post here have got to be 12 or something. thats got to be the explanation...
