Subject: Only 2 new guns? WTF Bungie?

Ok so we were originally told this game was an expansion, and wouldnt have a full $60 price tag. Now we're told that the game has gotten far more ambitious and can stand alone as its own game for the full price. So shouldnt there be more than just 2 new guns? and they're not even really new, more like variations of previous guns and they call them new. Also we still havent heard anything about new vehicles.

I really hope theres more new stuff that they're not telling us because it just seems lame to come out with a new full priced FPS with 2 (maybe 3 if theres the Brute PR, which still is just a re-hashed PR with a different color) new guns, and no new vehicles.

Do NOT send me Recruitment Letters, doing so will get you blocked faster than you can say "Huh?"

If you don't like the game, don't buy it. Bungie can't go add a ton of new stuff, because it would interfere with the timeline of the games.

I think those 2 new weapons will fit in very nicely. if you don't like it, don't buy the game.

They have a stationary gauss cannon turret... Does that count?

A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Mine has two separate levels of zoom: 'Up-close-and-personal' and 'Hello-you're-dead'.

True, nobody said that a videogame sequel has to have new weapons.

There are 10 things I know about you. 1)You are reading my sig. 2)You are thinking that's a stupid fact. 4)You didn't notice I skipped 3. 5)You are checking it now. 6)You're smiling 7)You are still reading my sig. 8)You know all these things are true. 10)You didn't notice I skipped 9.

If I look retarded, It's because I make myself look retarded.

They only put 2 new guns in Halo 3 and the ones from previous games and I didn't see anyone complain about that.

You do know it's meant to be an expansion.

  • 07.30.2009 6:44 PM PDT

Who the hell says there is only two guns. I saw the SMG the AR the rocket launcher sniper rifle pistol. Brute PR and carbine.
A little more than two I think. And there is probably more we have not seen. New or not,

name one sequel that didnt

and please stop saying, "if you dont like it dont buy it" its ok to question whether or not the product you are going to invest your money in is worth it to the consumer. The game is less than two months away so you think if there was new guns trhey would have announced them by now.

As a consumer, im worried that it might not be worth the money to me so im visting the company who makes the product to see if such things will be added. I see nothing wrong with that.

No -blam!-, i was only talking about NEW guns

  • 07.30.2009 6:50 PM PDT

And so there was a man who ate cake.

And he was happy it was that way.

Considering how many weapons Bungie has given us since Halo: CE, more weapons would be overkill IMO.

As long as the two new guns do what silencers are supposed to do not just make a cool sound then i think it will work out just fine.

where did i come off as not chill, i am very calm and was just pointing out a concern of mine for this game.

although i may have come off rude when responding to the typical posts you see around here when you say anything remotely bad about halo.

Halo 1 to Halo 2 involved very few weapon changes. The Beam Rifle, Carbine, Brute Shot, SMG and Brute plasma pistol are the only things that were added.

Point is, only 5 weapons were added, and that was a whole step up. ODST is just a filler, if you think about it.

Besides, ODSTs have access to the same stuff Spartans do, so there's not much to change.
