"Pistols on Wizard"


Sounds like fun to me.

yes, and i notice that ur sig says "Halo 1>Halo 2" in it.
just goes to show that most ppl like u like h1 better because of that damn pistol.


Exactly. They never used anything but the pistol. People that were open to all weapons love Halo 2. People that only won with the pistol disliked Halo 2.


Have you EVER played Halopc and/or Halo on a LAN or XBC? The pistol was everyone's FALLBACK weapon. All weapons (except the needler) were used in Halo. Sniper owned the pistol at mid to long range. Guess what. Both you and your brother are noobs. If your brother couldn't kill you with a sniper on Blood Gulch he has got to be one of the worst Halo players ever. Only complete noobs used the pistol all the time in Halo MP. All weapons were used all the time. Not just the pistol.


News flash, fool: my brother didn't kill me with the sniper rifle. He hit me once. I was at close range, that's why. He is no noob. The pistol is a newb weapon. It was no fallback weapon, I played Halo PC all the time. Everyone always used the pistol. All other weapons sat in their places, building up dust.

Next time, give valid criticism instead of resorting to calling a good player a noob, because YOU are most likely the one that has no experience. Just goes to show that you, elite_elite, only used the pistol. All it did was deliver a quick 3-hit kill that required little to no accuracy. I found it was very easy to kill ANYONE with it.

Not all weapons were used in Halo PC. Lemme see, here: shotgun, AR, pistol, RL, fuel rods. That's all. Any plasma weapons? No, because someone could see you from a hundred feet away and kill with 3 bullets.

You are just more evidence that you dislike Halo 2 because of the loss of a handgun. It's a little thing called adjustment; there are new weapons. Get used to them, and go back to the h2sucks.com pit you came from, moron.


Oh please. The laggy -blam!- that is Halopc makes it impossible to kill someone with 3 shots (let alone a single clip) in multiplayer. I've seen plenty of people use the plasma weapons in Halopc. Not sure what servers you play on. Well, fool, you must be playing complete morons such as yourself if you only used the pistol and actually won.

News flash, fool: my brother didn't kill me with the sniper rifle

Umm, I never said he killed you with the sniper rifle. Next time you go around calling someone a fool and moron make sure you read and understand their entire post. You must be a moron if you thought your brother stood a chance against you when you have the pistol and he has the SR in close up combat.

Sounds to me like you didn't read my full post. I said that I confronted him several more times in Blood Gulch, and even then I still won using the pistol. It takes 3 hits.

Don't tell me I was playing on a laggy server. I walk around, and all of a sudden, there are 3 faint "pangs" and I'm dead. Do the math; it was three shots.

Third of all, I call you a fool because you call me a noob, when you know nothing about how good I am. You also call my talented brother a noob. Therefore, I am justified in calling you MUCH MORE than just a fool; be glad I didn't insult you anymore than I already did. And about calling you a moron; well, you don't seem to support your opinion very well, that's all I can say. One minute, you go whining and say "Have you even PLAYED Halo 1?" Then you call me a noob.

Okay, fine, so a few plasma weapons are used here and there on the PC version of Halo. Nothing special. My point is, you may come across a few people using a plasma rifle--but then they are owned by someone with a weapon that delivers three highly accurate, unskilled shots, aided by a hitbox the size of Master Chief's head.

You completely contradicted yourself when you said that I am playing against a moron and using the pistol to win. There you go again, calling my bro a moron. You like the pistol, you wish it was in Halo 2--yet you refer to me as a noob even though I used it and won.

You know what I think, elite_elite? I think you're jealous. Did you know my brother is only eight years old, yet he comes in either first or second in nearly every big team battle game that we play on? I'll bet you anything that if he were to play you, you would be S.M.O.K.E.D.
Just in case you reply with a stupid remark like "Well no wonder Halo 2 is a noob game!!11", let me use this example to explain his skill: he beats levels on halo 1 under the legendary setting in single player mode. Without the pistol. With the plasma pistol.

Don't let his age fool you; calling him a moron proves to me that your skill falls far below his if you two were to face each other in a head to head match.

Just goes to show you that age makes absolutely no difference in a skilled player. And it also shows that people with no skill resort to calling skilled players names because they suck bad.

You hate Halo 2. But hey--nice Halo 2 avatar ya got there.

the difference with him is that this thread is argueing so far about halo CE for XBOX not PC

the 2 games play very very differently and the idea that continue this arguement on both sides (both of you) are being foolish and moronic



and your attack is pointless about the halo 2 avatar is worthless considering it was e3 when the game wasn't overhyped yet and looked very very good!

besides it hadn't even come out yet

Yet you never said what the situation was except for once. For all I know you two kept fighting in the center, or fought in the bases.

Don't tell me I was playing on a laggy server. I walk around, and all of a sudden, there are 3 faint "pangs" and I'm dead. Do the math; it was three shots.


There have been plenty of times on Halopc when I've shot multiple times yet the sound only came out for some of the shots.

You completely contradicted yourself when you said that I am playing against a moron and using the pistol to win. There you go again, calling my bro a moron. You like the pistol, you wish it was in Halo 2--yet you refer to me as a noob even though I used it and won.


I said that you were fighting complete noobs if all you had used was the pistol and won. I never said you were noobish for using the pistol.

Just in case you reply with a stupid remark like "Well no wonder Halo 2 is a noob game!!11", let me use this example to explain his skill: he beats levels on halo 1 under the legendary setting in single player mode. Without the pistol. With the plasma pistol.


Guess what? The plasma pistol is the second most useful weapon in the game. Hell, when I play Halo on legendary all I need are the plasma and human pistols. (Most of the time I just use the plasma pistol only using the human for far range shots)

You hate Halo 2. But hey--nice Halo 2 avatar ya got there.


Now you go assuming things. I don't hate Halo2. I actually like it as a game. I only hate it as a sequal.

1. We were never planning on making a Halo 1.5. Ever. That was a wishful rumor that refused to die.
2. We don't want to make Halo 1 again... because we already made it once. Sure, you may wish it had extra features, but to us, it would just be the same game, and for very little return, creatively or financially.

No, we are quite comfortable working on our new project. You will never play Halo 1 on Xbox Live.


this would H3? Right? or the movie? or something even more secret?

Eh? Uh oh. Does Halo 2 sniping count? Because seriously, I am worse than Church... By a long shot. Okay, maybe not worse, but pretty bad.
I couldn't kill an enemy who was standing still... Heheheh. But I'm half decent just dogging it out... Anything goes.
But, I was all right with the Sniper in Halo: CE... But much better with it in GR2.

You've obviously never played Halo1 and then HaloPC...The difference is staggering. Its like playing the original doom on your PC and then playing doom 3 on your xbox, with Halo1 representing Doom 3, and HaloPC representing Doom on PC....Plus Xbox Live is so fluent and seemlessish...

think a little more clearly. try to look into the future...
"Pistols on Wizard"


Lets look into the presnt.

"Smg start on warlock"

Anyways, play halo 1 on xbc, it's way more fun, especially playing offhost and pulling sick shots.


Whenever someone says the SMg sucks, it means they can't use one. I come in first or second because of using several weapons--one of them is the SMG.

It is not a peashooter. It only matches its user's skill.


It does suck, anyone can tell you its garbage. & yea, Smg sure takes way more skill with that big red circle, all I have to do is hold my right trigger down and strafe around.

Oh and with you calling the pistol a noob weapon go play online and not with your brother so you can smacked online.

A lot of people would like it more than Halo 2 - If you dont want to thats fine. Sell it to someone else WHO WILL.
I can only see one reason you can't do this.

"UH if we made a Halo CE Xbox Live compatible, then we would have to actually make Halo3 a better game! We would become our own worst enemy. How would M$ sell more 360's then? What would become of Nazzimatch?"

1--Wow, if the SMG sucks, why do I score so many kills with it? Not just me; countless Halo 2 players. Yeah, it sure is a peashooter [/sarcasm].
2--It does require skill; think about it, you're going to get killed if you walk right up to an enemy and start shooting with it, and to me, this seems to be exactly what you do. You have to pair the SMG up with grenades and melees; use effective strategies with it. You just don't like it probably because you get right up to someone's face and lose. And about its large target reticle--it is a ballistics weapon that sprays bullets.

3--Um, no, actually, it does not require much skill to use a Halo 1 pistol. You aim and shoot 3 or 4 times and you win. For some odd reason, no one seems to believe me--partly because the people criticizing Halo 2 don't want to hear the truth--it was easy scoring kills with the pistol. Try using other weapons on Halo PC instead of grabbing the same one over and over again.

4--I play with my brother because our skill is equally matched. My brother is awesome at both Halo and Halo 2. You telling me to stop playing Halo with him and to start playing online is just plain stupid. I don't get smacked online. I'm not bad at it, actually. I only get beaten because we have the typical people with the typical weapon--the pistol--all the time. I have never seen the needler be used more than once on a single server on Halo PC. Why? Because the pistol is the dominating weapon. Everyone used it. Fallback weapon? Please. It was more like "the only" weapon.

So far, the negative comments that were posted in reply to my posts have been nothing but the same old "Well stop playing with your brother u noob." Typical thing to say if you can't think of anything to reason against. Good job debating.

You completely miss the point. Why make a second Halo CE? Do you all want it to be exactly the same as the first game?

Bungie wouldn't sell a game like that to different people that want it. If you think about it, you're being selfish. You're saying that, since Bungie didn't make the game you hoped for, you want them to make a separate game just for several hundred people that want it. Not gonna happen. You can't just ask someone to make a game for a specified group of people because you didn't like the sequel. That's idiotic.

Before you say 'Well, your brother's a noob," let me tell you: we are equally matched when it comes to Halo 1 and 2. It's the darn pistol and its mile-wide hitbox that allowed me to get an upper-hand in the match.

I tell you, if that pistol was still here, I would not play Live anymore.


Boy I wish that pistol were still here...lol The less noobs the better.

Besides, I use ALL weapons in Halo CE. I loved the shotgun, and yes the assualt rifle. In a map like Chill Out I would never even pick up the pistol. So, your argument is flawed.

I don't need a witty or condescending remark - the truth will do just fine. Read what I said again. I said redoing it would provide very little return, creatively or financially.

When something doesn't have financial return, you either do it because you promised someone it or because it would be fun or otherwise fulfilling. Well, we never promised Xbox Live play on Halo 1 to anyone, and tedious recoding of a 4 year old game to play online only to delay working "the new hotness" that is our next project...

Honestly, that's just dumb. Who would do that?


For goodness sakes. YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO IT. Give it to a third party and let them do it, just like you did with Halo PC.

The E3 Demo used a different engine than the one they ended up using for Halo 2. The E3 engine was too advanced for the XBox, and they had to rework it.

You know what? I'm sure that there are people somewhere in the world, capable of killing you instantly with a toothpick. That does not mean that it is more fun than using a massive assault rifle.

Dude, why the hell are you criticizing the Pistol in Halo1, when the time it takes to kill someone is cut in half by the Halo2 Combo. First of all when you combo, you don't even have to hit them in the head with the PP, then since the hitbox in Halo2 is so massive, its hard not to get a headshot with the BR.

With the Pistol from Halo1, you had to hit them within like 2 inches of the head in order to get a headshot thus getting 3 shot kills.

I don't mind that you mindlessly love Halo2, i just hate that you condescendingly bash people for liking Halo1. Most people who don't like Halo2 don't give a -blam!- that you like it, we just don't like the game itself. You on the other hand just think people that like Halo1 are idiots with no right to an opinion.

If you can't discuss ideas in an acceptable manner, don't say anything, and most of all don't start a big-ass post-pyramid, those are hella annoying.

The real question is why are you still talking about H CE. There's a H3 game coming out and you want H CE to come out live. Dude, just let it die. You have to look into the future and forget the pass.

And I almost bawled my eyes out, seeing that it never made it in... And I'll never see what happens when the Master Chief sticks it. That single E3 Trailer turned all of my friends to buying Halo 2.

Boy do you read carefully. I never said he was a noob.

What lack of experience? I've been playing Halo games for nearly three years now. You don't even give constructive criticism of Halo 2, so really, you're the one who needs experience. Come back when you have some real answers, clown.

The real question is why are you still talking about H CE. There's a H3 game coming out and you want H CE to come out live. Dude, just let it die. You have to look into the future and forget the pass.


And why do you have Family Guy quotes in your sig? Those quotes are obviously from the past, so why the hell would you advertise them if there are obviously going to be new Family Guy episodes with new and funnier quotes. Why do people still talk about Halo2 when there is a new Halo coming out.

Do you really want to know the reason? Because unlike Halo2, Halo1 has genuine re-play value. Most people still play the Halo1 campaign, but very few even now play the Halo2 campaign.

Basically, Halo2 sucks....BUT i'm not saying it sucks in terms of other games, I'm saying it sucks in terms of Halo. If it were just a regular game, it would be the second best xbox game ever, but since it has Halo in the name, it is at a higher standard.

Halo1 just has lasting appeal that shouldn't be shunned, i mean why the hell is everyone so quick to forgot Myth and Marathon and now Halo1? Those could be some of the greatest games of all time, so why should we stop talking about them just because something new and shinier is coming around? We were clearly mislead by the Halo2 marketing campaign, so its hard for me to get excited about Halo3 until i actually get solid details.

1--Wow, if the SMG sucks, why do I score so many kills with it? Not just me; countless Halo 2 players. Yeah, it sure is a peashooter [/sarcasm].
2--It does require skill; think about it, you're going to get killed if you walk right up to an enemy and start shooting with it, and to me, this seems to be exactly what you do. You have to pair the SMG up with grenades and melees; use effective strategies with it. You just don't like it probably because you get right up to someone's face and lose. And about its large target reticle--it is a ballistics weapon that sprays bullets.

3--Um, no, actually, it does not require much skill to use a Halo 1 pistol. You aim and shoot 3 or 4 times and you win. For some odd reason, no one seems to believe me--partly because the people criticizing Halo 2 don't want to hear the truth--it was easy scoring kills with the pistol. Try using other weapons on Halo PC instead of grabbing the same one over and over again.

4--I play with my brother because our skill is equally matched. My brother is awesome at both Halo and Halo 2. You telling me to stop playing Halo with him and to start playing online is just plain stupid. I don't get smacked online. I'm not bad at it, actually. I only get beaten because we have the typical people with the typical weapon--the pistol--all the time. I have never seen the needler be used more than once on a single server on Halo PC. Why? Because the pistol is the dominating weapon. Everyone used it. Fallback weapon? Please. It was more like "the only" weapon.

So far, the negative comments that were posted in reply to my posts have been nothing but the same old "Well stop playing with your brother u noob." Typical thing to say if you can't think of anything to reason against. Good job debating.



You know what? I'm sure that there are people somewhere in the world, capable of killing you instantly with a toothpick. That does not mean that it is more fun than using a massive assault rifle.

You missed my point entirely.

Dude, why the hell are you criticizing the Pistol in Halo1, when the time it takes to kill someone is cut in half by the Halo2 Combo. First of all when you combo, you don't even have to hit them in the head with the PP, then since the hitbox in Halo2 is so massive, its hard not to get a headshot with the BR.
It was SIMPLE to get a headshot wth the pistol! From where I was standing when I shot my brother, the hitbox covered his whole head! And I was, what, around 50 feet away? Three shots below the head killed him. And paired up wth the pistol's rapid firing rate--you got yourself a killing machine.

About the BR-it's way more balanced than the pistol ever was. Look at campaign mode--in Halo 1, the hunters were very deadly creatures, yet it took a single shot from the pistol to kill one. Balanced? Suuuuuuure...

In multiplayer, the BR is balanced. It takes more shots than the pistol to kill with, slower rate, and less ammo. The hitbox, if I recall, was just as big as the Halo 1 pistol's. Don't try to deny it.

With the Pistol from Halo1, you had to hit them within like 2 inches of the head in order to get a headshot thus getting 3 shot kills.
Guess what: although you love denying true info. like this, I have to tell you: you could hit the player BELOW the head with the pistol and still kill them with three shots.

I don't mind that you mindlessly love Halo2, i just hate that you condescendingly bash people for liking Halo1. Most people who don't like Halo2 don't give a -blam!- that you like it, we just don't like the game itself. You on the other hand just think people that like Halo1 are idiots with no right to an opinion.
You are taking me the wrong way. I don't "mindlessly love" Halo 2; I am giving good reasons. You, on the other hand, reply with the most freaking idiotic comments such as "Have you even played Halo 1?" Not you personally; other people with a similar opinion as yours. Honestly, people that are criticizing the game on this thread resort saying the dumbest of things when they don't know what to say. Like "you're a noob," "your brother's a noob," etc. Be more original and try to stick up for your opinion for once.

I don't think you are all idiots; I, for one, like Halo 1 just as much as I like Halo 2. It's just that some people who respond to my posts call me a noob when really they can't even back up their own opinion.

If you can't discuss ideas in an acceptable manner, don't say anything, and most of all don't start a big-ass post-pyramid, those are hella annoying.
You, my friend, are the one who is not discussing anything in an acceptable manner. I repsond to people. They respond back, but with a hint of acute unintelligence; so I respond back with some of my own insults. I'm simply using your own meds against you.
