In halo reach I think there should be a human melee weapon as a counter to the gravity hammer,and the energy sword.What do you think should be the counter?

If your one of those people who believe that the Katana should not be in reach because the time of halo-to an ancient sword,then they could always put in the sword from the campaign shield.I havent thought about that until I clicked a link in one of the comments.

UPDATE:Energy Stave is also one of the choices.Post this vote in your comment.
UPDATE:Nunchucks are also a choice.

(Spartan Gloves are not an extra set of gloves.Its like Battlefield:Bad Company:you would press a button like (X) an you would pull out your dual fists.)

I heard this in school this year. I forgot who said it but.
"Courage......Does not always roar".

I made up EPIC APPLE SAUCE!

Dude, imagine. Some guy runs out of ammo and theres a Katana on his back. Say you run out of ammo for both guns then press x for katana. He then reaches on his back pulls Katana, then lunges and slices you in half( Not actually in half though)

How about, the Energy Stave ? Not only is it a cool weapon, but it would look cool on both, Elites and Spartans.

You people are ridiculous with your suggestions, I am not just aiming this at the original poster, but to pretty much every suggestion on this forum! Think about it, someone is coming at you with a giant sledgehammer that's 4 meters long and has another meter reach because of a gravitational field, and you are going to try to deflect it with a 50 cm knife? Its just really dumb, the same goes with the Katana, Machette, and as for the Spartan Gloves, what are you going to do catch the thing? You are already a Spartan-II, YOU DON'T NEED SPARTAN GLOVES!
Don't even get me started on the energy staff, based on the info on the picture, it is 18 feet long! WTF?

Wow... calm down man!
Does your rant target me, who said I am happy with things as they are?
Spartan Gloves do seem silly though.

spartan gloves scenerio:
A brute/elite comes at you with a hammer,you evade it,then grab his arm , brake it and take the hammer and shove it in his a@@.That's what a real spartan would do.

NONONONONONON! OMG! That would be awesome, combos. Generatex i know we talked bout combos. You have to press like rt when a brute come a you with a hammer. You the go into a cutscene with buttons popping up on the screen like this. Scene= press x, you evade hammer smash next press a, you jump on his back and snap the brutes neck. That would a real spartan would do.

They work in a game like the Force Unleashed, but not in Halo. Definately not in Halo.

Real Spartan

Dom ~ Thread Killer

Knife sounds cool.

  • 08.25.2009 2:06 PM PDT

Underwater Eagle.

We already have two good melee weapons, and humans have the shotgun. Also, considering that humans are weak compared to brutes/elites, any human (except a Spartan) carrying a hand-to-hand weapon would get dominated.
