now that backpack reload... i never noticed that. a nice trick to know. now depending on what kind of player you are you need different weps.
If you are a sniper, like myself (you really only should be a sniper if you can successfully motion snipe) then I would reccomend either an SR and a Plasma Rifle or an SR and a shotgun. I use different combos different times.
but focused is right. Unless you're a sniper, pistol is a great utility. always have one. after that I reccomend using a plasma rifle (easily take out energy shields) or a shotty or, even if you want, an assault rifle. so basically you either want a pistol or an SR with you at all times
training wise there are several places in campaign good to train...
for general training, do the library on heroic until you are good enough to do it on legendary. great place to just practice killing as many guys as you can
for sniper training, Truth and Reconciliation on Legendary is the only way to go. And make sure you try to use ONLY your sniper rifle until you run out of ammo. also in the beginning don't let yourself be seen and dont move in until you have sniped out EVERY enemy on radar
finally, for warthog training, i reccomend doing the MAW on legendary, but taking all of the "secret"passage ways along the way (some are shortcuts, other are bad) to make it harder for yourself.
for multiplayer training, if you get halo 2, you can practice with my clan during practices if you wish. just PM me and keep in touch
the only other advice I can give you that i can think of right now is that when going up against a scorpion use the ghost , using a combo of turning and straffing the scorpion can't keep up with your ghost, but be care ful no to go too far ahead...
