Subject: So the H3 SMGs and Magnums are gone?

About me: I am a vicious wolf of a man.

But really am sweet at heart. =)

If they are, then I can find a big problem with that, for picking up ammunition and weapons.


Your saying that EVERY SMG and Magnum is Silenced and has a smart link scope on it with a matte black finish? that seems wrong to me somehow

You've just confused me very much

  • 08.01.2009 8:33 PM PDT

Go Rams and Missouri!

Yep, the SMG is replaced with the Silenced version with a reflex sight, and the Magnum is now replaced with the Halo 2 Magnum with an added scope and silencer.

This is what happened. Buck asked for BR and got the SSMG instead, when he investigated into this matter it was figured the Chief and Johnson were given all the BR, Normal SMG, and M6C/D's. This also leads to the reason there are no AR in Halo 2 since in retaliation Buck requested all AR's. This also explains why Chief's ViSR wasn't updated either.

OK but picture this. You walk into an abandoned Police Station, and you go into the armory and on the racks are rows of a SPECIALY MODIFIED M6S with silencer. It just seems odd that they would have that kind of equitment. Kind of unrealistic

New Mombasa isn't that bad really. It's just a little banged up here and there, but they didn't set a nuke off...

Exactly, just a small slip-space jump...

It's a video game. Who ever said it has to be realistic? Stop being a baby about it.

and at wat point was this suppose to be realistic?

  • 08.01.2009 9:04 PM PDT

the bullets from the other pistols and smgs will still work, same bullets but with a silenced gun.
Also i agree halo isn't supposed to be realistic in any way. In the words of Bungie when they were asked how Johnson will use VISR seeing as he doesn't have a helmet:
"It's a -blam!- video game."

  • 08.01.2009 9:09 PM PDT

Well, it is like this. They are ODSTs. They use special weaponry, because they are special forces. They were supposed to capture Regret's ship, so they get special silenced guns. Next, not every SMG and Pistol will be silenced. It is possible they won't even show either the regular SMG or Pistol at all in the game, rather have ammo boxes like they did in Halo CE.

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.”

It's Halo.

Having a suppressor on the weapon doesn't change the kind of bullet it fires. The SMG is still 9mm and the pistol is still a .50 cal.

Guns are tools. Do you blame your misspelled words on the pen?

Maybe there are SSMGs and Silenced magnums AND normal SMGs and Magnums... AND maybe even special ammunition.. Hollow-points, Incendiaries, frangibles, softpoints, tracers, FMJ, shotshell....................... yeah

And so there was a man who ate cake.

And he was happy it was that way.

How is that unrealistic? They were modified like that for more efficent CQC, because remember, they were planning on fighting inside a Covenant Carrier.
