Anyone else wanna see the MC flip his pistol like he did in the first game when he beat someone down? It doesnt matter to gameplay, but sometimes its the little things that matter.

I was so confused by this statement that if my mom was here, she'd be worried about my face.

The close combat moves looked much cooler in Halo 1, every single one of them.

YES I would like to see that again. It was the little things that made that game so cool. It would be cool to use the skin for that pistol too.

Yeah, I like the little things that make you smile, like the little pistol flip, or the Grunts yelling 'Little people first!', and the Marines yelling 'If my face looked like a squid, I'd be pretty angry about it too!'.

Ah, good old Bungie.

The pistol flip was sweet, even the reloads of the AR was sweet.

i just want a variety of moves. not just the same over and over again.
i think Bungie should update the animation when you dont move for a bit, and you play with your gun. those things were amazing

Because the shield doesnt offer the same pertection(spelling?) all around. In the back it is weaker for more mobility. So when u get hit in the back your spine breaks.

they should defineatly bring it back, and they should add like a powered swing with the longer weapons and a weapon through for the smaller weapons.

imagine swinging a shotgun, baseball bat style at someones face as they come around a corner.

In addition to better close-combat animation, I think a good melee idea would be when you are dual-wielding and melee, you don't drop your left-handed weapon.

That would be great.

Haha, I loved the pistol whip in Halo 1... yeah, I really dont think the MC has any cool melee's in Halo 2 except when you are holding a plasma pistol and he punches instead of hitting them with the weapon...

To go on endersans idea, what about you don't DROP it but you could maybe THROW it at your opponents face with like an autoshoot on, and he gets bullets and half a gun stuck in his head!

  • 05.22.2006 7:24 AM PDT

meh........

mmmmmmmmm......pistol whip.

  • 05.22.2006 7:48 AM PDT

Yes, the melee attacks need cool animations like that. Oh and that swinging the larger weapons would be hilarious.
And while were on the topic of cool melee ideas how about being able to counter someones melee attack and use their own weapon to kill them.

Say someones about to melee you after spraying all of their ammo away, you could just time it right and bash them in the face with there own gun. Of course they would have to make the time to counter extremely limted so timing would be REALLY hard so as to not make melee attacks useless.
