This is an idea thread. Halo: Reach is most likely near completion and nothing new will be added, so take this idea lightly. Let me know what you think.
Weapon: Long-Range Heat Rifle
Class: Covenant
Clip Size: 6 Rounds (3 rounds per reload)
Mobility: Low
Reload Speed: Slow
Description: This heat-seeking longe-range shield busting rifle would be a sweet addition to matchmaking. The rifle would have a lock-on ability that could lock on to players instead of vehicles. It uses heat sensing to detect players and has a lock on ability that will engage when the target is in the crosshairs for 1.5 seconds. After this time, the crosshairs will turn red and you will be able to fire. You will not be able to fire unless you have a lock-on.
After a target (player/computer AI) is locked-on and you hit the target, their shield ONLY will be depleted . Sort of like an energy burst that tracks heat and busts shields. You can then switch to your secondary weapon and finish the job. This rifle will not kill any player/AI with one shot and 2 shots will only keep the players shields down longer, it will NOT kill the player. You must switch to either your secondary weapon or grenade to finish the player off.
This weapon would promote teamwork as well because you could have a player sitting back busting shields allowing for other teammates to finish the player off. You could also finish them off yourself by switching to your secondary weapon.
Alternate Use:
This weapon could be a weapon that is placed on the map like a missile-launcher or turret. This way you could still keep your 2 weapons while holding this one. That way if you had a BR and Rockets, you wouldnt have to give up one of your weapons to be able to use it. Aim, lock-on, hit target, drop finish with BR..
Could be fun..
