*calming down*

Breathe in.....Breathe out....Breathe in......Breathe out.......

LONG LIVE THE M6D!

Bungie would never let such a decent weapon fade away.

Actually, the pistol is in the beta, but drastically changed. Completely black, 10 round clips, and no scope. My friend played the beta.

I have more info, if you want it.

No weapon is cheap in Halo. If it were cheap it'd kill you just by passing your head while not even touching it.

The Pistol (or some version of it) was in the Halo 2 beta how do I know you might ask? There has been a leakage of info from it more than the screenshots. And in those leaked reports the Pistol has 10 rounds, no scope to balance out that you can dual wield it. And anyone who complains about the Pistol being to power is unskilled *cough noob cough* and only plays there Blood Gultch because it takes alot of skill to use the pistol.

I could not agree more, after playing halo to the point of breaking it (my xbox actually barely works anymore) I have realized that the pistol ruins multiplayer. Don't get me wrong I absolutely love halo mp but the problem is, once you become good enough, you get 3 shot kills almost every time making any other weapon in the game completely useless at long medium or close range.When my friends and I play halo at a LAN party we ban the pistol due to the fact that its so easy to kill someone in under a second, making any weapon beside pistol and sniper pointless. the reason halo was so good in the first place was the variety of battles that could take place and with the pistol this is completely removed from the game.

Is the pistol even removed? I don't think bungie has made any official annoucements regarding this so I'm not sure where this info came from.

LOL! The only reason people hate the Pistol is only the leet can truly use the gun to it's best potential. There isn't much different between a decent player and a leet player with say a Shotgun but the difference between the same two people is drastic. In Halo 1 only the Plasma Rifle, Sniper Rifle and Pistol required skill to master.

If you watch enough Tourneys and videos you see that outside the pistol the pros are great with every gun if they weren't using the pistol they whould own you something else. People only bring up weapon balance when they lose it's a proven fact.

That's right. The only reason the pros use the pistol is because they start out with it in tourneys. I've seen them pick up NEEDLERS and pwn with them.

i think the BR is replacing the pistol since its normal fire is 3 shot burst which should be equal to the pistol also it is 36 rounds (36 divided by 3 is 12) the same number of shots in a pistol
