Custom game nights? Contests? Great staff? Active members? What are you waiting for, join The Human Military.

ODST's weapons? Obviously an ODST can't shoot nearly as well as a Spartan. Maybe they did an expanding crosshair

Charge...BACKWARDS!

I wondered the same thing. All the weapons seem the same, But the auto mag looks like it has high recoil.

no this is not cod, take your IW cookies and gtfo.

no expanding crosshairs and maybe a very very slight difference in recoil. expanding crosshairs isn't for halo

Golf Wang. Brony.

The SMG already has recoil, even for the Master Chief (who can still carry a machine gun turret, no problem XD). No expanding crosshairs are necessary, really.

But different effects for weapons would be nice, packing some more punch. The Plasma Rifle and the Needler would benefit from having a kick to it, since they are automatic yet people react neutral to them.

"Take my advice. Rookie.You ever fall for a woman?

...Make sure she's got balls."

Too be honest I really loved the expanding recoil in Shadowrun, but it definitely won't fit Halo.

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?

Could be that the suits have some form of recoiol control.
not too hard, just neural interface that controls the joint flexibility or some shenanigans like that.

So you all are all sayig shooting should be exactly the same as Halo 3? What'd be the point if you aimed just like a spartan.

Both the SMG and automag are silenced, which reduces recoil.

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

Gameplay purposes. Of course, ODSTs are spec ops, meaning they are no strangers to shooting weapons and handling recoil.

Your is not the same as You're

Plunk.

A total FU exception has occurred at your location. All system functionality will be terminated. Press any key to power cycle the system. If system does not restart; scream at top of lungs and pound on keypad. If you need to talk to a programmer press any other key Press any key to continue_

Preliminary operational tests were inconclusive (the damn thing blew up)

Yeah, Spartans have awesome armor and physical augments that make a gun's recoil feel like nothing. ODSTs, though, as tough as they are, don't have the armor and super strength Spartans do. They may do something about recoil, or keep it the same so people who played Halo 3 don't complain.

Magic is magical, so are shoes... Along with plastic.
Don't forget to flush the toilet, because -blam!- stinks.

Doesn't the pistol have recoil?

If I remember correctly, in the IGN live demo with Staten, he shot a brute down with the SOCOM, and I saw plenty of recoil in each shot.

To check out my other screenshot works, join SAS Halo3 to find my other works. Also hit up my homepage to get the latest info on screenshots and more. To request work be done on your shots, just send me a PM and I'll get to you ASAP. But it'll be faster to join SAS ; )

If an ODST can lift a Spartan Laser then and ODST can hand a tiny recoil.

Go Rams and Missouri!

Have you seen the new pistol? That thing rises like nothing else when you try to fire it fast.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Burst fire should be encouraged, but no recoil.

This is true, maybe not expanding crosshairs, though an odst should experiance s0me actual recoil and lack of acaurcy when firing say the assault rifle since he is not a spartan, thus ecouraging burst fire.
