I was watching some of the going nowhere fast videos and fast forwarded it when it was kinda boring so that the weapons would shoot super fast. I think that both the plasma rifle and the pistol should fire this way, except that the pistol should be a lot weaker.

The plasma pistol is fine as it is. And besides, if they added rapid fire to it, you wouldn't be able to charge it up and take someone's shields off in one shot.

I meant the plasma RIFLE and HUMAN pistol. Because the plasma rifle sucks, and the MC should be able to absorbe the recoil enough to rapid fire the pistol, but it should be super weak.

First of all, the Human Pistol did have rapid fire. And second, the Pistol probably won't even be in Halo 2, so it doesn't matter.

Actually, if you get a "Game" controller, or one with a turbo function, the plasma pistol will have rapid fire (if you want), and will still take away an Elite's overshield, without using much energy. I have tried it. It only uses about 2 or 3 units.

There will be some form of human pistol in halo 2. Saying there isn't is like saying MC wont be in the game.

I can do that without the turbo button.
