u dont need new guns

  • 07.30.2009 7:16 PM PDT

The Brute plasma rifle wasn't in Halo 3, and I think we get to use a Elephant in the campaign (again, I think, it might only be for firefight. There's also a new visor mode which kicks the flashlights ass, a map layout of the entire city (which is a sanbox), you'll play in flash backs as different ODSTs, there are Engineers in the game (they've only been in the books until now), and firefight.

Those are just off the top of my mind. There's a lot of new things in ODST, and the game takes plays after Halo 2 and before Halo 3, so there can't be that much new weapons. Mabye the game will explore why the Brutes got rid of the BPR, and the silenced weapons are only used by ODSTs. The game also comes with three new Halo 3 maps.

We have enough guns.

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

It's basically a full-game with how much add-ons they put in. They didn't plan on the game being this large. Microsoft prices the products. It's a Halo title with Firefight... why wouldn't it be 60 bucks?

Add into the mix new Halo maps. Cha ching?

Adding a ton of new guns would bring up the question of ,why werent these in the other halo games? Also Bungie is adding alot to this game and to all you guys complaing about it then just dont buy it Bungie isnt forceing you to. But i also think the price should be dropped to 39.95.

Punch a bear in the face.


If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

From Halo CE to Halo 2 they added the Brute Shot, Fuel Rod Gun, Sentinel Beam, Sword, BPR, Carbine, Beam Rifle, Battle Rifle, and SMG. Halo 3 brought around the Spiker, Spartan Laser, Mauler, Human and Covie Turrets, the Missle Pod, the Flamethrower, Gravity Hammer, Spike and Flame Grenades, Equipment, and all the various weapon upgrades (Assault Rifle, the pistols, and the addition of vehicle freeze on the PP)

... and the vehicles...

Seriously? You want MORE?!

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

We are getting much more than we deserve.

New, Innovative campaign
2 new weapons
Firefight
Invite to Reach beta
and probably more secrets (garbage truck thing, once again mentioned in the new ViDoc).
Awesome-looking ODST characters / armor permutations / marks

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


read the first two lines of the OP


I know.
It's called Fire Fight, New Maps, and all of Halo 3's multiplayer maps thus far on Disc 2.
That alone is enough for the $60 price tag.

And please, stop complaining.
The game's finished, so it's not going to change anything by doing so.

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

I am just saying here but, wait till Reach. We will see most likely tons of new stuff in Reach and we will see them in the BETA. Ever think of that?

Here's an idea:
Name some new weapon ideas. Any that make sense?

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.

  • 07.30.2009 7:59 PM PDT

I am human, I am good and bad as well. But I try my hardest to stay good. And some of the things I do and say may be bad. Or just not too good, but I do try.

So with that said I don't fault you. I mean your only human, good or bad.

Stat and Sig

SO deal with it

  • 07.30.2009 8:02 PM PDT

its an expansion. the reason why they say it can stand alone is the maps which is worth 40 dollars in all so thats why. also its an expansion!!! wait for Reach for new guns to come out.

I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Well, what more do you want?

  • 07.30.2009 8:05 PM PDT

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

What are the two new ones? I haven't seen any.

  • 07.30.2009 8:06 PM PDT

Halo 3's weapon sandbox is pretty full as-is, what other weapons could they add that isn't already represented?

Posted by: wmubronco420420
(maybe 3 if theres the Brute PR, which still is just a re-hashed PR with a different color)

Well, if we follow that logic, then NONE of the new guns are actually new, since the SMG is just a rehashed version of the old SMG with a silencer and scope, and the pistol is just a rehashed version of the Halo 1 and Halo 2 pistols with a silencer.

Plus, there's so much other stuff being added to the game, such as a huge, free-roaming world, new gameplay elements like the VISR mode and new health system, and flashback missions. Why not be grateful for all the new stuff we are getting, instead of complaining about one minor thing?

  • 07.30.2009 8:06 PM PDT

So not having more new guns makes a game with a great looking campaign bad? Rly?

Im not upset that they havent added new guns its the matter of fact that they took out the BR it seems to me that this would be the ultimate weapon for ODSTS and i think if they gave us the feature to change the rate of fire on guns that would be nice

So if they re-released Halo 3 for $60 and it came with 15 new weapons you would buy it?

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


spartan laser, mauler, spiker, missle pod, detachable turrets, flamethrower, fire bomb grenades, spike grenades, gravity hammer, and equipment

nice try

Those are the only two "new," guns? Are you kidding? I thought they were actually putting in two new weapons! They're just throwing a silencer and a scope on a few guns and calling them new.

  • 07.30.2009 8:13 PM PDT

Charge...BACKWARDS!

How many new guns were they from halo 2 to halo 3? They even took away blue sentinel beam and brute plasma away from halo 2, too.

From what I can think of- Spiker
Missle pod} Half guns, basically..
Flamethrower} ^ ^
Brute grenade

Edit: Wow i forgot a lot of guns! But I still rest my case.

So, they took away 2 guns, gave 2 half guns, with a spiker and grenade.

My point- You don't need new weapons.

you make it sound like bungie is giving the game out for free

So not having more new guns makes a game with a great looking campaign bad? Rly?

where did i ever say that?

So if they re-released Halo 3 for $60 and it came with 15 new weapons you would buy it?


It's not like im asking for 10 new guns or anything, i just really want one or two gun that is brand new, not just modified from previous games. I probobly should have worded it better in the OP that was my bad.

But its ok i understand that i made a mistake coming on this site and saying somehting negative about bungie. Seriously, i say one thing i'd like to see in the game and you guys go crazy and act like i kicked your dog.
