"I can accept failure, everyone fails at something, but I can't accept not trying." - M. Jordan

I want to see guns do damage that make me laugh when I see someone get shot to death. The plasma rifle could be like a weapon that froze you and then you got beat to death with. It killed me when I saw people get killed by Melee cause they couldn't move. I THINK the COvanant carbine should have a charge like the movie Eraser that shoots long green pulse and leaves like a green sniper trail. It would be so funny to see people get stalked and murderd with such a brutal force, and that would make the MC body jerk back an forth.

ok, go jerk your MC back and forth and come back here.

The carbine IS NOT a sniper, its been covered already, its like a Battle Rifle. (or so they say)

Hey, Chife, you can turn off the caps now. Unless the button's broken that is. Anyway, on topic, I want to know how rapidly the Carbine fires. The covies already have an auto' weapon, and this thing's a bit large for small bolts. I'm thinking it's gonna be more like the clasic laser fire, with a straight line that pierces armor. That, I think, would be cool. They did say that it was deadly at close and long range, so it'll be interesting to see it in action.

Show me difinitive proof FROM BUNGIE...The FAQ says it is an energy based sniper weapon. This could be a battle rifle-like weapon, or not. There is NO proof that this is what it actually is...
