To me, the plasma rifle was fine in Halo 2. It's the plasma pistol that needs to be tuned down a bit, with less homing.

The reason the plasma rifle was dummed down and that its stun was taken out is that it is a dual wieldable weapon. The stun on Halo 1 from the plasma rifle was bad enough, imagine two.

I just want them to turn up the plasma pistols damage. I recently tried killing someone with it. THeir shields were dead, and I had to shoot them 19 times ( I counted) in the head before they died.

i rmbr the plazzy rifle being accuate if u fired it right. They way it behaved (wich many of u probbaly rmbr so i dont need to go into deatil) was very tactical. The plasma pistol needs to change, no questions asked

I agree, in Halo 1, the plasma rifle was suprisingly accurate when fired in single shots or bursts.

plasma rifle was much better in halo: CE because of its stunning affect, but in halo 2 theres the option to dual weild which makes up for it. it would be ownage if in halo three they could have both types for custom weapon sets.

Halo 2 Plasma Pistol was useless. It couldn't be used as a weapon on its own, it needed to be combined with something to be usefull. Bring back the power of the Halo 1 plasma pistol, it could be used as a weapon all on its own.

they were better the first time, though the stun for the plasma rifle was a bit stupid
