Gee, thanks for the history lesson. I had no idea that Bungie was picked up by Microsoft and the focus and timeline for the game release had been altered.
Big thumbs up for you!
That still doesn't mean that they are going to just throw a -blam!-load of old ideas in there from the earlier builds. Youmight as well start a post declaring that Halo 2 is going to be third person perspective because some of the older designs were designed that way.
I'm glad the pistol is gone, that sucker was way to lethal and who has ever heard of zooming with a handgun?
There are alot of pistols with scopes on them. And almost every pistol can be modified to have a scope on it, havent you ever seen a revolver with a scope on it. Also the magnum is different from the M6D, It is way different, probably (and hopefully) it will be like the one that was pointed out in the begining of this post, that thing is huge. Oh and the smartlink is the picture from the scope on the weapon is transmitted to the chiefs visor, so if the weapon doesnt have a scope............ The thing that will be good is that now they are making all the weeapons really good so people wont just focus on the pistol. The problem wasnt that the pistol was overpowered it was that the other guns were underpowered, so every one went for the good gun (pistol) now even if the magnum can kill you in two shots, people wont just automatically go for it because the other weapons are good too.
