To expensive to develope weapons that can only be used by 300 soldiers

Some crazy future technology like Slip Space, Spartan armor, and they're still using a bullet hose Assault Rifle?

MJOLNIR armor with recharging energy suits that regulate body temperature, damage, reprocess urine into drinkable fluid....and Master Chief is still firing a Battle Rifle?

if he wasnt the gameplay would suck hard!

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Thats what makes Halo realistic, its a futuristic game but it still ahs ties to today, acutally Halo is how i would picture the future, not with Lazorz and and bull -blam!-, Halo makes things feel human

We are still talking about a game right, and not real life?

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

And? What kind of game would Halo be if you had super-duper "I kill u" in one shot weapons? Not fun. We have those weapons too, but it is always good to have an assortment of weapons that aren't over-powered.

We have both sides of the spectrum, alien weapons and human weapons.

Because bullets work, they still kill them the way we need.
Shields were made from salvaged covenant technology,
Plasma weapons still havent been reverse engineered.
Just like do you get a V12 engine powering a gun?
NO!
So do you have slipspace engine powering a gun?
No!

It would be like arming the entire USNC with splasers and sniper rifles. Pretty much unstoppable, but massively expensive.

And also dont forget, the only enemies they had for a long time had been humans (space pirates) and the native animals on the planets they moved to. So them weapons were all they really needed.

i hate many people, i am also like many of those people... that makes me a hypocrite

you do know, bullet proof armour can be defeated by armour piercing rounds, and (if ever need be) if you needed to take down a human in ALOT of armour, then just put said round in a sniper rifle, plus anyway, bullets are more humane, I'm guessing the humans still had use of the Geneva convention

We've been using bullets for a long time. Why change something that still works?

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Technically the M16 would take roughly 13BILLION shots to kill a Spartan, Elite, or Brute. If the BR does it in 4, they must be doing something right.

Uhh, it a game. Which means, in case you weren't aware, that it isn't actually real.

Let that sink in for a moment, I know it's come as a big shock for you.

Doesn't matter, it is based on the real world around us, and so it is tied down by the rules of the world around us. The only difference is that being as they set the game 500 years into the future, they have the ability to create fictional events and characters because it is impossible to prove what happens in the game as impossible. You can't say Grunts aren't real, because they very well could be. (if you don't get it, you aren't thinking hard enough.)

If it ain't broke, don't fix it, i.e. KISS(Keep It Simple, Stupid).

-I know what you're thinking, and it's crazy.
-But... what if monkeys really could fly?

+500 years into the future, and they are still using the same weapon calibers. And the weapons could practically be developed today.

  • 11.06.2009 9:00 AM PDT

I just noticed that discoveries around this era aren't as good as those back then. So I expect that we'll still have weapons that use bullets until like the next 100 plus years.

It is highly unlikely that by that time in the future we will still be using gas/explosive powered projectile weapons. Currently our military has in use laser weapons mounted on satelites, humvees, and airborn vehicles. This is not futurist sci fi, this is our current technology. The U.S. Navy has tested a railgun that accelerates a 3.2 kg projectile to seven times the speed of sound. Its only a matter of time before we are able to condense the technology enough to utilize laser and electro magnetic hand held weapons.

If you don't believe me do some research on laser weapons, cutters, rail guns, etc. We already have these weapons. I believe within this century they will become hand held.
