You forgot dual SMG's. That's my choice.


Yeah, who cares about that whole "accuracy" thing anyway? ;)

Human and covie sniper. That would completely get rid of the freakin low ammo problem.

i have to say that shiska's is definitely the best (scorpion and atma weapon), but even though it probably wont show up again, just hook me up with the M6D and plasma pistol and let me go to town. shields off then head shot. simple as that

I want dual MAC guns. I'd be really mad if they don't even include that.

The shotgun in Halo is a pump, you wouldn't be able to do it, although it would be really cool to have a shotgun and sniper rifle.

Gotta go dual shotguns for close range and how about Sniper Rifle/Battle rifle for medium to long range.... sounds good to me.

  • 04.14.2004 9:38 AM PDT

Aww, c'mon, surely they can ressurect the über-complex (all the way down the bottom) shot-gun loading system from M2 and M∞! Dual weilding worked there!

i have to agree with a scorpion in one hand, although i would apreciate the use of some shield, either the plasma or the hunter shield

I'd also like the grab a Grunt with one hand and use him as a alien-shield, and in the other hand I'd have my ol' trusty MAC gun I tore off a ship when I was doing some space-flying..

.. Please Bungie, don't pick up any of the ideas posted on this forum. Ever. *hehehe*

as long as we're on the subject of insane dual weilding, i'd like to top the rest of you... imagine carefully In my left hand, the death star blowing planets and halo's to pieces as i run, in my right hand TWO death Stars or possibly a soft wet rag to shine up my left hand...

Yes, but the Master Chief has enhanced strenth, not a problem.

now seriously, i think there should be a mode where when you pick up a plasma sword, or 2 for example one in each hand, the screen should go into 3rd person to allow a wide variety of ninja moves and skillz.who wants to use a sword in first person anyway? guns yes but i want to do some ninja gaiden-esque moves

Dual pistols...independantly aimable!!! Now that would be craptastic. Only the true ambidextrous out there with the ability to focus on two separate things at a time would be able to put this to use, but what a battle. Those times on blood gulch when two charge the red base at a time, can you say double head shot. I think I just spilled my drink...no, no I went myself.

Won't be done. Watch the E3 video.

Also, how are you going to aim two guns, and run at the same time.

Think how deadly just one pistol is though. 3-4 shots to the head and you had someone dead. If you had two pistols it would be like only firing twice but with the same resaults as if you had shot four bullets.It would be great.

If the pistol returns it will be in a (much) weaker form, the pistol in Halo was overpowered. I think Bungie would do good changing that and making it all balance out better.

Yea problably. I hope they would because if you got good with the pistol in halo you were almost unstopable.

See, I love the pistol just how it is. And we play no shields, 150% health. So if your aim was on, you could kill in one shot. If your aim sucked it would take six or seven shots to kill. I don't think all weapons are created equally or need to be. The pistol rewards you for having really good aim. I hope they don't change it...but they probably will. Too many people want to take my fun away. It's just like rainbow six and the .50 cal. The makers of the game actually do know what's best, but some people (read: lots and lots of people) can't handle it so the game gets changed from it's pure form to something that will please the masses or the lowest common denominator. That's what I really liked about bungie and halo. They didn't gear it to the lowest common denominator only...they gave you almost infinite game options so you could customize your play down to the exact detail. People who needed shields could use them. People who thought the scorpion tank was cheap didn't have to play with it. You could use alien weapons only, if you thought the pistol was the hand of god. I love the options they gave you.

Now, options are going to be tricky with xbox Live. Everyone could be playing a different style of game. So you will end up playing a lot with your friends. Random games will be more difficult because people will whine and cry, or just join a room and immediatley leave because of how the game is set up. BUT, I would rather have the options and deal with the difficulty of getting a random game going than not have them. This way, if people don't like something in the game, instead of crying about it on my server, they can go make their own or find one that plays the way they want to.

Good stuff guys

The best combination would have to be a charged up shot from a plasma pistol, followed by a headshot with the pistol. It's a shame this combination isn't on your poll...so I settled for the SMG and the plasma pistol using the same strategy.

The best combo for close up action, medium action, and far action is obviously the dual pistols
