Gauss? Then how do you know if someones about to shoot you with it? That would make it too powerful against infantry as the gauss hog already is. It would be way too easy to walk/sneak around and instantly one shot people.
The spartan laser was designed to be the most powerful weapon in Halo yet not allow a single player an unfair advantage. Yes, it can turn the tide of an entire match, but that's why bungie incorporated power weapons into the game in the first place. If you don't control them your supposed to be at a disadvantage.
And the laser is not too easy to use, people wielding them are far from invincible. After your first shot every enemy on the map knows where you are and its useless in CQC and mid range situations against a br.
1- Knowing whether or not i'm about to be shot or not doesn't make a difference. It just makes me think "Oh crap" for a few seconds before I die. Besides, what's stopping Bungie from putting a "Laser Sight" on the Gauss Cannon?
2- To shoot and fire, the Laser is stupidly easy to use. If you use it as intended (A Sniper rifle for vehicles, basically) then you probably won't have this problem. Additionally, if you keep an eye on your motion radar, you have plenty of time to whip out your own BR to take them down with. I've got so many perfections on Valhalla with a Laser/BR combo it's not even funny.
Ever had a decent sniper against you? cos i've shot down loads of ppl with spartan laser with the sniper :).
But i'm always to hasty and sometimes make mistakes which f**ck p my perfection and after that i'm like: hell should I care about staying alive anymore?!
well back to topic... as the other person said: the whole point of a Spartan laser(power weapon) is that you are at a disadvantage when the other team has but I think you have to learn deal with it :).
Even though I hate heavy weapon nubs I sure do see the advantages they give you :D everyone is a heavy weapon nub just because they(the weapons) help you pwn the game so again deal with it :)
