Subject: What if Chief found a Minigun in Halo 4?!

Why are you here?

Say the frigate Chief was in crashes down upon Sigma 7. In the wreckage, Chief finds a Minigun, and a lotta ammo. He'd be practically invincible.

Just imagine this as Chief, and the cops as hordes of Flood or other things.

Would that not be one of the most bad ass things you've seen in a Halo game? The point i'm trying to make here is that Halo 4 should get UNSC weapon ideas from already existing weapons that exist in the Military today.

Who agrees that Halo needs more depth into Human weapons?

Most of the existing UNSC weapons (not counting space based or HW) are based on existing weapons from real life. Only one I can think that isn't would be the Spartan Laser and the Gauss Hog.

We have laser weapons, they just eat power like Homer eats donuts.

Same with railgun/coilgun tech. Power hogs, but brutally effective.

And compared to today's military tech, the UNSC SUCKS.

Somebody did an analyses on the UNSC's weaponry involving each fundamental facet of a gun/rifle (such as ammo count, caliber, range, accuracy, etc.), compared them to their modern day U.S. military counter part (MA5 series to the M4 for example) and it was consistantly shown that the UNSC's weapons were supperior. They DID have draw backs, but each time, the number of wins in the UNSC's favor (greater ammo count, caliber, and range, vs greater accuracy and handling as another example) outweighed the modern military's wins.

With each weapon, the UNSC's were judged superior.

If the Master Chief found a mini-gun wouldn't that make him similar to Jorge?

So? its MC with a machine gun... not something we all haven't seen before

It will just be pretty much the same as him holding a turret.

Generalizations.

True, but a minigun would fire at a much faster rate. Like 6000 rounds per minute.
It would also the most overpowered thing in the history of Halo.
