I hope not, I didn't think it had any place in Halo Wars either.

Fine tuned, hopefully. I mean really, they took the lock-on rockets out because of balance and put something even more devastating in?

Yes, but nerf the blam out of it.

Maybe for whenever you charge up the beam, before it releases the blast, it consumes battery.

Similar to how when the plasma pistol loses battery when it's charged over time.

Amazing idea. This would be the perfect solution.

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

For the sake of continuity, I hope not. I'm guessing that we're getting supplies and equipment from the Pillar of Autumn, so that means no Splazers. And hopefully, that means 60 round MA5B ARs.

I hope so. It was one of my favorite weapons added in Halo 3, maybe tweak it somehow so it isn't so powerful. I'd also like to see the flamethrower again but in a different manner so it doesn't feel like you're a huge slow moving target if you're not camping with it.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Maybe. I would prefer a covenant version, so the covenant actually had an effective anti tank weapon in matchmaking.

Actually, this is a good idea. Axe the Spartan Laser, make it the "Elite Particle Accelerator Cannon", or "EPAC" (Not the final name) . The Covenant could use more weapons in their arsenal.

As for gameplay, the above poster had the right idea. As you charge it up, it drains battery power like the Plasma Pistol. Also, it should have little to no magnetism, making it so you have to be precise to use this devastating weapon.

I hate the spartan laser. I hope it is against the halo canon and they take it out. Id MUCH rather have homing rockets.... and no more missile pod.

  • 10.11.2009 11:00 PM PDT

I think they need to fix the laser. Make us aim for the engine, or melt a tire or something.

I miss playing Halo with my friends.

Actually halo wars had a spartan laser, it was an upgrade for the Spartans after chain gun.

That'd be dumb. If they didn't let the BR out till H2 cuz it was still under ONI tseting, than the Spartan Lazer DEFINATLY shouldn't have ever appeared till Halo 3. So no.

  • 10.12.2009 8:26 AM PDT

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

Yes but Halo Wars was against alot of cannon.

o_o o_0

It is a key weapon for taking out those guys that run around in power vehicles( Banshee, Warthog, Tank, etc....) the whole game like noobs. I love it.
