Does anyone have any strategies on dealing with them. They're so annoying sometimes.

Shove an Assault Rifle in his face. Pretty simple.

No, not really. It doesn't work if someone is good enough with the pistol.

ha ha I love the pistol it works like a sniper rifle but has a bigger mag. larger target circle reloads faster than most weapons doesn’t leave a contrail does the same amount of damage on any part of the body (until the shields gone then you just aim for the head) and it is easer to get to than the sniper rifle on most levels it also ticks people off its great! Practice with it and you’ll learn to love it oh and one hint your secondary should be a shotgun, you'll know why.

Well, seeing as I'm a huge pistol--blam!- myself, I'll give you a strategy works against me: rocket launchers annihilate all!

not if the bistol--blam!- (a.k.a. me) is at medium range then before you have a chance to aim well ure dead

  • 08.29.2004 12:07 AM PDT

bah

Become a sniper. The S2AM is non range descriminate. If you're more than 140 meters away, pistol -blam!- is dead. Otherwise, use the damn pistol.

Snipe them. Rocket them. Just stay away from them. Overcharged PP shot might help. Melee him.

Snipers and pistol b!7ches don't like eachother, become a sniper. Either that or drive vehicles a lot.

LoL.. drive vehicles a lot, spoken like a true n00b. If you suck with the pistol, then you'll get owned by someone who doesn't suck. Because someone uses the pistol and is better than you with it doesn't mean they are a -blam!-. Get a weapon you can beat them with and beat them with it, it's not rocket science.

Pisto -blam!-...hmm well i wouldnt say that considering if you were to ever face me you would DIE SO FAST FROM MY PISTOL. heh. I would say that the pistol is one of the best weapons for almost any level. IF YOU CANT USE IT THEN YOU SUCK

I never said I wasn't good at the pistol, I just made the thread to see if pll have any strategies to deal with the ultimate weapon in Halo.

alrightey...ill give you a kick ace strategy!
dont ever hold down the trigger it makes it innacurate. instead pull (let it fire one round) release the trigger then repeat the whole process! its a simple as that. once you get really good with the pistol like me you can do what I call "pistol sniping" lol firing at a VERY long range for the pistol. well i hope that helps out someone...

Quote from Drummdragon: True, I love my boomstick, I just have trouble with the map hang-em high.

well i find the rocket launcher as a secondry usually helps with close range if not invisibility will help for a while...

Hang em high is my favourite map i am yet to loose...
