Subject: I find this quite amusing..

Self explanatory.


Your thoughts on this? I hope all of you realize the DMR is the "super weapon" that Sage is talking about.

So basically... Waypoint is pro-vanilla?

Waypoint isn't pro-anything so much as they're just anti-intelligence.

Real account.

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

I find you amusing.

They deluded themselves.

Br is too strong! How do we fix it?

Give the replacement infinite range and the ability to kill vehicles.

I question Sage's logical processes if he can't take one look at what Reach's sandbox is and say "This -blam!- is a mess."

Honestly, the BR was fine, what's the point of a new utility weapon that's more powerful?

Because apparently they didn't get the fact that all they needed to do was to fix the balance on the rest of the sandbox in order to make the BR work.

Oh ThreeSixXero, while I was in Halo 3 I played with someone who thought of their own mid range weapon balance for the Halo sandbox that still included the DMR

It was something like

DMR long range, shorter than Sniper
BR Mid-long, mid range
Carbine/Needle Rifle Mid, Mid-short range
Pistol Short range

How's that?

Re-add Plasma stun, no duelwielding Plasma Rifle.
Increase AR's reticule size and Magazine.
Buff Magnum to 4sk, no duel-wield, with scope, increase RoF.
Buff Carbine, tighten reticule.
SMG's always duel-wielded (bound)
Slightly buff Spiker.
Slightly buff Mauler.
Add actual damage to Plasma Pistol overcharge.
Increase Needler mag and capacity and tracking, decrease speed slightly.

That may have not been specific, but even going in that direction would have cleared it up.

4 Utilities is much harder to deal with considering that the spread of range among them makes one always similar to another, thus eliminating the clear-cut traits of each.

I thought making all the utility weapons single shots was a good idea. I want to keep a thing like a DMR without all the BS Reach gave it,

Unfortunately we go back to same old in 4 with BR, Carbine, useless pistol.

I'm calling it.

Slightly buff Mauler.
Mauler. Awesome, but sucks. You almost ALWAYS had to follow up with a melee to kill. That gun needed a serious buff.
Add actual damage to Plasma Pistol overcharge.Doesn't the Reach PP already do health damage?

Yeah, but only through the small extra damage that it does from taking down shields. It takes something like 6 charges to kill.

The CE Plasma Pistol only took 3.

I knew the CE one did a bit of damage, didn't know it was that powerful. -blam!- learning something new everyday.

4 shots would be a reasonable amount if the PP did health damage.

The burst is a good Mid range weapon. Always has been in many games. The automatic Pistol and the semi-auto but slow RoF Rifle do their jobs best as well.

The problem is that despite that "power"

The shots are easy to avoid and travel very slowly. Not to mention the cooldown after each shot.
