Subject: halo 3 brute shot

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

Best Regards,
The Tyrant

The Concussion Rifle fills the void of the H3 Brute Shot quite nicely. Both fire projectiles that arc and kill in roughly 3-4 hits. Also, both projectiles result in impact shockwaves that allow the player to super-jump. Since the Brutes aren't in charge in Reach, a plasma variant of the weapon makes more since. It's a plasma weapon that fills the void between a handheld plasma device and the shoulder-mounted Fuel Rod Cannon.

The Grenade Launcher is almost exactly like the H2 Brute Shot minus the alien feel. It kills in only a couple of hits, and like the H2 Brute Shot, the projectiles bounce.

The weapons you seek are in the game, they are just aesthetically different than the ones from previous games. You can argue that they've been slightly tweaked, but that's pretty much the same when just about any Halo weapon makes a jump from one game to the next.

The brute shot and the concussion rifle are the same thing dude. As long as some version of the weapon makes it I will be happy.


^yes the concussion rifle was quite similar, i'm not too sure if knock-back should be implemented even though it does add an aspect of realism to physics when players take damage to heavy weapons such as the concussion rifle.
The point of the rifle is to launch things into the air. It must mess with the physics or it will remove a layer of awesome from the halo franchise that I find to be fundamental.
