Its not like we are fighting them hand to hand. Dont tell them to make it more like other games, or it wouldnt be Halo.
You cant just run and gun, you take way more damage, but dish out as much as MC because you are using the same weapons. Your melee seems weaker though.
Firstly, what this guy said. You have the same weapons.
Secondly "their own books" were not written by Bungie, they have stated already that although the books should be taken as canon they may decide to ignore or completly alter so called "facts" from the novels. I have seen a lot of posts on these forums that seem to think Halo is a literary series before it is a video game. Bungie can do whatever they want. Their universe, their rules.
Oh and I am 100% sure that the marines and ODSTs in previous Halo games do not get massacered by the first brute or elite they come across. Have you even played a Halo game before?
