I'm a n00b.

EMP Grenade: Fires an emp grenade that stops vehicles and stuns all enemies within a certain radius.

X-KL100: A grenade Launcher that soot grenades that can stick to enemies and then explode. If it misses it explodes after 3 seconds. All shots have a 3 second fuse.

Spike Rifle: A Brute Sniper rifle with a blade at the end of the barrel, scope and shoots spikes that can stick opponents to objects eg. walls, floors, rocks. Kills like a sniper rifle.

Crossbow: A crossbow with a rapid fire clip of Ten bolts with mid range scope, and can stick enemies to other objects and enemies.

E5-J Type: A modifed Spartan Laser that fire weaker Laser shots but fires multiple shots like a turret.

Anti-Aircraft Machine gun that has a long reload time but can rip through armour. Exceptions are heavy armour.

energy blaster : humans use bullets in halo. that's how it is.

MAC gun : there is a reason why it's on a warthog turret.... the recoil would break even a spartan's shoulder.

grav bolt : why not.

sniper rifle : you have a radar already o.O

laser : faster = OP


here's what I think.
The MAC gun isnt on a warthog its on UNSC Battleships... for space!

1.Power Drainer
2.Takes out the point of throwing grenades, doesn't it? Anyways, we already have a grenade Launcher: Brute Shot
3.Brutes prefer to be up close and personal, making Jackals the Snipers. Also, Brutes will most likely not be in this game.
4.Crossbows became obsolete when accurate guns became available.
5.The UNSC already have the Mounted Gause Turret, this is not needed.
6. Turrets like the Mounted Turrets and Warthog LAAG are anti-aircraft also (LAAG=Light Anti-Air Gun).

Lol omfg.... EMP's wouldn't stun people, they stop all electronics from working not the human body. Brutes weren't around for Reach so your sniper rifle idea is shot down too.

  • 09.19.2009 4:39 PM PDT

OOOOOOH, they should make a Spike Turret!! Like a single shot harpoon throwin thingy that shoots a harpoon or whatever and if you're hit, like, you are super-thrown against the wall, or whatever, and there you are, an impaled corpse hanging by it's pierced shoulder.

Again, it's a stationary turret: a big gun that shoots a big stick.
lol for this.

I make a legitimate thread on the most logical choice for the next Bond actor, and you take that away from me by creating a parody thread indirectly connecting my thread to yours.

I hope your kids have bad influences and develop bad personalities. I wish this with all my heart.

We already have a Portable MAC gun. It's called the Gauss Cannon.
And I really think we need to have a wide variety of weapons available; I want every Halo gun from every Halo game. I want to pick up a Needler and wonder how powerful it is. I want to pick up an Assault Rifle, see that it's an MA5K, think, "Cool," and keep moving. I want to have the silenced weapon set from ODST, and sneak into a base, silently taking down foes.
I also want to have slightly differing abilities as the other Spartans. If I'm Kelly, I want to be less strong in melee combat, but faster and able to jump higher. If I'm John, I want things to be the same as past games. If I'm Linda, I want some kind of boost for my Sniper Rifle.
I want to play as Everyone and everything. Dishing out pain as Hunters in Co-op would not only be incredibly satisfying, but if Bungie gives Hunters some kind of boost while alive, but makes one stronger when the other dies, it would allow the player to truly feel both remorse and rage when their buddy is killed.
I wanna drop in anywhere as an ODST or Spartan, or get dropped in by Pelican as a Marine or Spartan. (have HEV drops be safer and faster, but Pelican drops allow you to bring in better equipment)
I actually wanna be a grunt. Wait-okay, nevermind.
I wanna be the pilot of the Pelican bringing soldiers in from the ships fighting above, dodging anti-aircraft fire as I bring in my Soldiers, both my and their lives in my hands.
I know this won't happen, but I wanna be the Captain of one of the ships fighting above. By keeping my ship alive, I allow troops to easily get to the surface, and can send supplies down as well, but by engaging the enemy, I can weaken their ability to do so.
I wanna have the choice to either defend my ship from boarding parties, or fight the battle down there.
I want to be one of those boarding parties.
I want to have absolutely colossal battles. Do what MAG does; only load the section we're fighting in, and give updates about the others. If we need to move to another section, find a way to load it.
I want to be able to control the MAC guns while on the ground. Give both locations (space, ground) the ability to affect the other if they're winning. (ex. Covenant ships glassing the planet, human soldiers hopping on MAC guns and taking out Covenant ships)
I want to hop into an escape pod as my ship is torn apart by plasma torpedoes. I want to hit the ground and get asked where I'm from for a status check. I want to give them the name of my ship, some mega awesome battle cruiser, the best in our fleet. I want us to both think about how royally screwed we are.
I want this to all be going on at once.
I want it all, Bungie! I'm like the flood; the more I get, the more I want. But if I get it all...ooohhh.....

MAC and Gauss are, essentially, the same thing. They both use rounds shot out of a tube by using magnetism. The only difference is that the MAC cannon is on a much larger scale.

Scaled Down Gauss Cannon - A portable version(portable for Spartans at least) could work well as a support weapon. It would have to cool off after every shot because being smaller may mean that the cooling mechanism is weaker.

Flak Shotgun - Kind of like the Flak Cannons in World War 2, it would fire a large wall of shrapnel a significant distance and shred anything in its path. It is a support weapon. The recoil would be enormous.

Plasma LMG

Those LMG's are already in Halo 3: The turret and the Plasma Cannon. Shades are the heavy versions for the Covenant, and the LAAG on the Warthog is the heavy version for the UNSC.
