Subject: Heavy machine gun turret

one of my favorite weapons has always been the heavy machine gun, especially in halo3, but I hate how it works in reach, I cant walk faster at an angle anymore and its not very accurate even when its mounted, on top of that, changing my sensitivity doesnt change the the HMGs turning speed, my favorite weapon is now pretty useless outside of shotgun assault games.

dont use it then? :/

This sig will Self-Destruct in 3.... 2.... 1.... Thank you for your time. Cookie?

It does seem to have been a bit nerfed since Halo 3 and ODST, which is kinda sad, given how it was pretty mediocre in those games too (imo).

btw, it's probably just me, but I think the HMG is actually more accurate when detached.

well, I wont use it nearly as much anymore, my new favorite is the grenade launcher, but it seems they could do so much more with the game but they're still thinking small.

It's always funny because I think they're trying to rush sniper, but nope, just the heavy machine gun.

Ive been betrayed because of that, I just wanted the turret.

Why don't you try juggling it? Like the flag? You can move a lot faster and get to higher places with it that way.

If you think that nerf or redesign was bad, all plasma turrets got it worse.

The mounted turrets in Reach are basically made to troll people.

"Oh look, it's a mounted turret! I used to have a blast with these things!" *picks up turret, fires at an enemy within melee range, misses after firing two shots, dies*

did that in H3 and do it in reach now, it's still much less effective, there's a clear difference on how much better the HMG was in H3 than it is now in reach, I can barely get 5 kills now, back in H3 I could get 14 minimum, hopefully we see the return of the old turret in H4.

That sounds disgusting...

sounds sexy to me.

I'll die to win ,
Because I was born to lose.

I find it's weakness isn't it's damage, It's that the shots are to inaccurate making it only useful in really CQC and then you can't even melee...

It sure as hell can rip a banshee to shreds...

It's causes carnage against warthogs and small things like that but if there are just people about it's not really worth picking up.

It's not really fun to look at now there's only one barrel either...

Honestly, they kind of ruined it. The con's outweigh the benefits of using it.

Step 1: Stop trying to get into CQC with a HR
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Profit!

Always up for REACH customs!

Remember it has serious bloom, even though the reticle doesn't show it. Fire in 3-4 round pulses and it will be much more accurate and powerful.
