It would be kinda neat to see what they do with the covey sniper, can't wait to see the finished model.

if you chose the double pistol then you might be disappointed b/c it is said that they are makin the pistol a weaker gun b/c on xbox connect the only gun used for about 95% of the time was the pistol. bungie didn't like this and they wanted every gun to be used so that is why they are makin the needler a better gun

I think dual needlers would be really fun. I wonder how high I could make a elite fly with two full clips in it.


the result would be... explosive

yea i know that so true about the XB Connect thing, there needs to be a little more variety, the only time people really used the AR was for Chill Out and close quarter maps. i also gotta say sumthing about the gun sling thing. ok so we know that you can hold two guns at a time but wouldnt it be cool though if say you clicked Y and there was an animation of MC switching guns and slinging the other one around his back. and each gun had a different sling, like the pistol went in a holster and the BR went over the shoulder. oh another cool thing would be say you had no nades then you picked up four, then four grenades would appear on your belt and people could seen how many you had, man that be so cool if they had that in H2...people cmon expand on my idea too. oh and unclescrotar9 i have this strange feeling that bungie isnt gonna use our ideas and they're gonna use the disappearing out of thin air thing.

I seriously doubt that there will be pistols in halo 2 unless they have modifications to make them weaker. Basicly the pistol's place will be taken over by the battle Rifle, because bungie doesnt want you to be able to weild dual pistols being that they can 3 shot kill. Also i believe that they have said that you can only dual weild 1 handed weapons such as the SMG (which will be replacing the assault rifle) and plasma pistol. And while you're dual weilding you cannot throw nades, because each trigger will control the respective gun. I also forgot The gun sling would be cool, one-handers on the theighs and 2 handers over the back.


MY Ideal dual weilding combo is dual SMGs

I totally concur with XxCavemanxX. I HATE the 'ole dissapearing weapon trick, it's so damned cheesy... come on Bungie, represent! If Rainbow Six 3 can have it so can Halo! I like the grenade idea as well, that would be tits! If you've ever played Splinter Cell, you'll notice how good the 'various' gadgets move about... it adds a realistic touch, fluidity (not a word i know... but it sounds good) if you will. PLEASE NO STIFF ANIMATIONS!... but back to the weapon sling... great idea... don't know how they would impliment it with Covie weapons... maybe have the armore expand and contrast to the varying weapon size...???

I'll be on my own side.

i agree with all of you,but all i want is to be able to carry a sidearm in addition to the 2 primary weapons,like carrying an HE pistol,plasma pistol,or SMG,and have your Battle Rifle and Shotgun as well.this will eliminate the common problem of debating between the pistol of the plasma rifle or whatever.

That would be a cool idea as well. It is not highly uncommon to carry a Sniper Rifle, an M4 and a holstered pistol (in real life that is).... so what not in Halo!?.... would be cool, but they would need weapon slings for SURE!... talking about this more is driving me crazy...must....stop

yeah that would be cool
another good gun they should have is some stun gun to stun them then you could hit them with your gun

Dude this is an easy one. Human pistol in the left and the plasma pistol in the right. Get that plasma pistol's rate of fire up (like past the p rifle- my team hates it when i do that) then knock em' over with one clean shot with the human pistol. It's a done deal.

Com'on, its all about the shotguns. They are one of the best weapons in the game, and can take out virtually anything with one blast. Reload was fair and rate of fire was good. Now holding two... how can you be stopped? Anyone foolish enough to come close to you wouldn't stand a chance.

  • 04.22.2004 4:20 PM PDT

i need some sleep.....

i hate bees...

no rest for the weary...

oooooo i think that there should be dual plasma swords! hehe then i can take on those flood one on one, mono a mono, melee style! ooo also u should be able to point one wepon one way and another one another! think about it! theres 4 grunts on both sides and u take a dual SMG's and just take em all out at once! however u wouldnt be able to move... o well! Also i think that there will be pistols because if u read the halo 1st strike (by eric nylund) they get new super pistols.

with a single pistol i would'nt need to get close to kill you, three bullets from aross the map and your dead with double pistols it would take less than 1 second before you died and you wouldn't know what hit ya
I like monkeys
but chances are that duel weapons won't have zoom when you have 2 of them but will single

Yeah i love the idea of a laser sight for the pistol..that would be sweet as. The addition of that would compensate for them making it a weaker weapon by providing more accuracy. Splinter cell being my 2nd favourite game to halo ofcourse....i would love to see the "fluidity" of that game incorporated into halo with the movement of weapons etc as said before.
And also on the topic of weapon slinging and side arms...does anyone remember Robocop....how cool would it be to holster your pistol the way robocop did in his leg...even a little cut scene at the end of battles or if u like when you change weapons. that holstering technique would allow for the carrying of 2 primary weapons! And by the way the grenade idea on the belt would be sweet as, it would add a little extra to the game, also it would be cool if you could sniper the grenades even causing them to explode, setting MC on fire he he

Here's one idea for an actual combo that I came up with. If someone already mentioned, it, yeah. Give them credit. Kudos, an' all that. Now, Bungie has proposed that these will be missions on the Moon, or in low gravity conditions. The Chief can jump high as it is, on the suposed Earth-like Halo gravity. One-third of gravity would be a nice boost, so why not make jumps a bit more complex? I like the idea of while suspended in the air, you could tilt the right thumbstick, (or whatever you use to aim,) forward and be able to to do a summer-sault. You know, like in the beginning of Goldmember, how Powers jets out of the car, and rips up the helicoper while in the middle of a flip? Imagine the suprise on a Grunt's face as shower of needles or SMG bullets nail him to the ground. Comments?

Good point.

I wish, when you shot something, more realism was added. For istant..The shotgun is a fine weapon. Really the best freind you could have when dealing with the flood.

The only thing that tad bit annoying is when there at point blank range, and you shoot them. They just fall over dead. When, in reality. Most of there stomach, along with there back should get blown out.(Be really cool to see the flood explode into chunks when you shot them, that is what should happen do to there decomposing flesh)

Same as when shooting Grunts in the head with the pistol. The exiting wound, the back of there head should get blown out. a small peircing hole wherever the bullet entered.

Also, to the person who mentioned the idea about weapons showing, like plasma and frag grenades be on your belt area.. And how many you have left. etc. Would add a touch of realism.

Very good idea. ^_^
