Simple question. Answer it, mofos.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

I'm not a mofo. I always go for a shotty and occasionally a sniper. Extra pistol ammo too, if it's not already taken. On Wizard I always grab flamer and rockets in center so nobody else can use it on me (at least not right away).

But in short, the shotgun. I like close-range, 1-shot kills.

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Generally the sniper, unless the map is small.

I always offer fair game and usually allow some "extermination" of my teammates. I think that anyone should be able to play Halo or any other game they please.

I grab for the weapon that is the easiest to get: the assault rifle. If I can't get that, or already have it, then the shotgun.

Pistol ammo, and a shotgun. Occasionally I'll drop a few rounds with the sniper rifle.

I consider the rocket hog a weapon. Flame me if you will. Nothing is more satisfying than inadvertently "rocket sniping" someone across the map on Blood Gulch.

I might as well throw this out there. If you're replacing your pistol with ANYTHING, have fun getting smoked.

I dunno, when you have the rod and you are getting base raeped and the sniper spawns, I will swap out my pistol sometimes.

Something smells fishy...

I have to agree with this. The pistol is probably the deadliest weapon in Halo 1 PC. Why swap it out? After all The sniper rifle only has 8 rounds in it. The pistol is a good all-around weapon in the game. If you know how to use it, it definitely comes in handy.

Exactly why I always use it in conjunction with another weapon like the sniper or shotty.

Shotgun.

I love shotguns.

Assuming you're not taking the liquid excrement...

Warthog is a very subpar choice of weapons if you're not worried about getting cheap kills.

For one, you either don't have a passenger, meaning you have no guns to shoot with, or you DO have a passenger, in which case he'll be getting all your kills (And you ARE only interested in kills, otherwise you'd see the warthog as a transport for the flag carrier instead of a weapon).

Secondly, you're easily flipped by a grenade, since you're so near the ground and so large. That'll take off most of your health or outright kill you. And since everyone's going to be gunning for you since you're so carelessly dangerous... low, low life expectancy.

Thirdly, friendly fire is a female dog. You run people over so easily in that thing it's not funny. Hellooooo autoban!

Now, in a pinch you can use a hog. But if there's other options available, you should use them - a tank, for example, has an excellent long range weapon, and less prone to being flipped (though is still vulnerable to explosions) and a ghost is much more manuverable AND can fire AND can avoid being flipped much more easily because of the small size.

But the whore-king weapon of the battlefield is, and remains, the banshee. IT FLIES. No more running into your teammates so easily (since you stay off ground level until you see the enemy), striking from behind and above, FUEL ROD, plasma... the only problem is that it draws fire even more than a hog, but most people can't shoot worth solid excretion, so if you dive for cover once in a while you're good as Au.

tl;dr warthog sux, banshee is awes0me!!11
