Subject: Plasma Rifles

I for one would like to se the ability to spawn with plasma rifles, place them on all maps, and stuff like that. I love Elites, and the plasma rifle is their main gun, yet i cant make maps with them. Also, there are so many other guns unavailable. I would like to see the ability to spaw with anything, and see all guns included in the game, like the brute plasma rifle, silenced smg, silenced pistol, and other weapons.

GO ELITES!!!

Spawning with all the weapons in the game would be nice.

plasma spawns are so gnarly me and the boys love playing splitscreen covie weapon fights. it's intense man.

  • 11.12.2009 10:12 PM PDT

blarg, bow chicka wow wow, boomshakalaka,

i totally agree. the PR is the best. i like being able to start with any weapons. i also think the PR needs more power. more than the Brute PR. and a cool new melee visual.

  • 11.12.2009 10:14 PM PDT

yes, other than swing my arm forward quickly

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

You and the boys, huh?

There is nothing wrong with Halo:Reach. We all just have our gripes about everything we don't like. Not liking something doesn't make it broken.

Iam enjoying Halo Reach and revisiting some past Bungie games, iam a big fan of Bungie and their online community.

That would be nice.

Wielding a double-bladed chainsaw, wearing a potato sack on your head and spinning around mindlessly is amiably quick at getting anything done

Covie weapon fights are always really fun. I would love to see the ability to do PR or Carbine starts.

Only if everyone else spawns with the same gun, or else one person could be stacked power weapons while another person has a Plasma Pistol.

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.

I think Fuel Rods dont appear in any MP map...yes, but i they spawn you with a Plasma Rifle, they should atleat upgrade it so it can compete or be = to the AR

  • 11.13.2009 4:20 AM PDT

Look out.... -boom- (headshot)
I told you to look out, but know, you got in my way, was going to shoot that splaser....

I want fuel rod gun in my Multiplayer. -.-

I am Field Master Avu Med 'Telcam, Servant of the Abiding Truth, and I have many brothers.

A god who creates tools is still a god. It is not for us to impose qualifications upon the divine or presume to guess its intentions.

Yes that would be a fun playlist, Like Covies Slayer. Everyone spawns with a plasma rifle and only covenant weapons and vehicles on the map.

Killing time, killng people

i agree prs are good.
i would like to see a plasma launcher
essentially fires plasma grenades around twice as far as you throw them.
energy ammo, 1 shot uses up 5, 5 shots continually until overheats, fires once a second.

  • 11.13.2009 5:05 AM PDT

Don't hate... ...loathe.

Is this refering to Elites spawn PR while Spatans spawn AR, or Spartans and Elites both spawn a PR or either an AR depending on whats selicted for spawn weapon?

  • 11.13.2009 5:43 AM PDT

For every action, there is an equal and opposite airstrike.

I think Bungie have learnt from the mistakes and issue with Halo 3. ODST improved on a lot of things;

- Assault Rifle spread, although still not what I'd like it to be, was much better. The SMG was also tightend up to the point where it acted like, or surpassed, a modern submachinegun.

- Banshees being able to hover. YES.

- Wraith mortar arc being adjusted so it actually lines up with the crosshair.

- Being able to move full-pelt with support weapons. Although as this was only to improve a camapign, I'd think a faceless super-soldier should be able to do this too. Speculation (and perhaps some another source) show that one Spartan will be using a heavy mchinegun as their preffered weapon; in the event we take control of him/ her, I'd like to be able to move properly.

- Being able to install ODST to the harddrive without issues. Not really Bungie's fault, more Microsoft's, but it was addressed regardless.


All of these show Bungie are willing to update the formula to make it work just that bit better. I'd be very suprised if they didn't add all weapons to the forge pallete, or indeed make the engine in such a way it is impossible to update.

EDIT: that being said, I'm still not allowed to have the word Assault in any media I create in Halo 3. Odd that, for a 17+ game. About as bad as the GoW2 No Blood setting. Wrong game, wrong audience.

Or how about any game type that ends with the word "covies" actually has covenant weapons on it, not just vehicles + the beam rifle...

I mean really, you start with a battle rifle and an assault rifle on this game-type when you should be starting with a plasma rifle and plasma pistol or carbine, AND there's human weapons on the map. It's total BS.

I agree, we should be able to spawn with any weapon. they should also bring the PR back to the state it was in during CE. Make it undual wield able, up its power, and give it the stun effect it had during CE.

BEFORE ME YOU TREMBLE

I hope the plasma rifle slows people down again. Nothing like freezing someone up and meleeing them in the back

  • 11.13.2009 11:30 AM PDT

GO ELITES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!@!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!?!!!!!!!!!

  • 11.13.2009 11:58 AM PDT

Agreed

Spartans look better with assault rifles and Elites look better with Plasma rifles so I think that if your species is an Elite you should spawn with it

  • 11.13.2009 12:02 PM PDT

Also known as Entropy91

See you on the battlefield.

I'd just like to see a plasma rifle that can actually kill something without overheating three times. Kind of like in Halo CE, where it also had that headshot stun effect also. They also should de-nerf the plasma pistol, make it like in Halo CE, but keep the vehicle disabling thing.

  • 11.13.2009 12:14 PM PDT

sapwning with the same weapon as everyone else is soo much better then being able to spawn with a sniper, br, PR ect. keep everyone the same
