Add to that the fact that CE's simplicity is what gave birth to strategic gameplay. You had limited options, so you had to be a better player, not simply whore to most simplistic weapon in the Halo franchise (the BR).
And, yes Crow, the sequals MP gameplay is very simplified due in large part to the BR and it's imbalance to both the othe weapons and the maps for each sequal. All you need to be good in either sequal is to be good at the BR, that will cover your bases in nearly 90% of all scenarios. That is not the case with the CE pistol, due to the insane grenade toss and the fact that the pistol actually required aim.
All that being said I do want to clarify that I don't want a return to CE, I want Reach to be it's own game. Not another "welcome to Halo" title like 2 and 3 were.
Ok, you're trolling me now.
The BR overpowered? HAhahahahahaha.
LOL, omg, the Pistol was overpowered.
The BR is so balanced its amazing. There is literally nothing wrong with the BR.
The Pistol was almost a sniper rifle, it actually made sniping a pain because it was so deadly at every distance.I had no problem killing someone at either cliff on blood gulch from the base. It was so easy.
The only gun you EVER needed in Halo CE was the pistol. you could forgo every single power weapon in Halo ce, and still waste someone with the pistol.
But alas, trollin hard, good job kid.
Kid huh? and you call me a troll? Try reading my posts before laying down your POV on the subject. I never stated that the BR was overpowered, nor did I say that the pistol was fair. What I said was that the BR is unbalanced against the weapons it's matched up against and the maps that exist within the game. It is the only weapon that works consistently well outside of any intended range. The only area a BR suffers is extreme long range, and extreme short range. A good BR user is dangerous anywhere else, and that is why the weapon in and of itself is imbalanced.
The pistols range was laughable, more suited to that of a rifle, but it's utility within the game it existed was far more balanced than that of the BR. Due to the pistols ROF and lack of accuracy when fired consistently, it was not a great choice at short range against an AR or Plasma rifle. The sniper and the pistol kept eachother in check at long range. if you only ever needed a pistol to dominate in CE then your oppenents sucked.
I realize opinions are gonna differ here, but ask anyone, and if their honest, they go with the BR cause it's easy and remarkably effective. So please read this time before you critique, and possible research what balance actually means.
