do you think the weapons in halo2 should have secondary fuctions. like the weapons in perfect dark.
double round burst for the shotgun would be lethal

It's not Halo-ish if you get my drift... But the Battle Rifle fire modes are innovative.

I agree. I wouldnt want all guns to have secondary fire options.

Some, your shotgun idea is good but it would make the shotgun a cheap weapon, seeing as two shots are fatal anyway, and at least with the slow rate of fire you can try and take the bastard down with you. If you have a "double shot" death would be instantanious.
But some weapons already have dual functions, the plasma pistol, battle rifle and Covenant carbine for example!

Some guns would be good...like the "MAG SEC 4" Equivilent...a pistol that can fire 3 round bursts...Even though a "FARSIGHT" Gun might be nice :p

but like said above...It would ruin Halo-ishness

Yeah, too UT for me. By the way, if you feel the need to buy UT2K4, get an Alienware first. I'm serious, there's lag even on single player and the loading screens are awfully long. Middle o' the road PC owners DO NOT BUY!

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

I like the way Bungie has implemented it subtley on some guns.

Battle rifle has single and 3 round burst
Rocket launcher has normal and tracks vehicles when zoomed in
Plasma pistol normal shot or charged shot

I want Bungie to keep the secondary fires like this for some of their weapons not all. I don't want a button that just changes the way the gun works.

i know what you mean. its not really halos thing. but it kinda makes double the amount of weapons. a century gun feature for the smg or ar would be class.
how bout a sticky shocker (splinter cell) type thing on the sniper rifle. stun the enemy so u can get a clean shot on the biatch
