Subject: How will the game be balanced? Will there be AR rushers only? Discuss

"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." - Albert Einstien

I'm personally against shoving the aim skill so far forward. Aiming is definitely a skill needed for the Pistol, but just because you can aim (something any seasoned FPS player can do) shouldn't be given the reward of a speedy kill. That is the sniper's job. The main midrange weapon should be a weapon you can have use as a great tool but not be something you rely on. The BR should play the role of a mid-long range pressure gun which can force someone to retreat but not kill them in 5 seconds, or render you completely vulnerable in about 3 seconds.

and about the halo CE pistol. i would not mind it. if it had a damage fall-off mechanic that restricted it to close range

Actually, in H:CE, the M6D had a range of aproximatly 10-20 meters, depending on skill, and was acurrate up to about 9 meters.


this confuses me, i clearly remember killing elites 100 yards away with the M6D, witch is very far in a video game

are you talking about

Halo Combat Evolved
or
Halo Custom Edition

In CE the pistol could outshoot the sniper. While it was terribly hard to aim, it was doable. The sniper couldn't shoot end to end on bloodgultch, but i've done it with the pistol several times.
