This might seem impractical, and rather... insane.... but try learning how to use the sniper rifle in close quarters. A.k.a., no-scoping.
People always complain that the pistol is like a minature sniper rifle.
Well, then, the sniper rifle therefore MUST be an oversized pistol and is GREAT for firing at any time. (No, seriously, use the sniper rifle like a pistol - it's actually great in close quaters with no-scope - hell, it's great at all distances without a scope, just even BETTER at long distances WITh a scope. I <3 that sniper rifle.)

Halo isn't chess, where one must carefully plan his/her strategy, anticipate the enemy, and use one's resources to the fullest. It's more like checkers, where you play it like chess, but much less so.
But there's a random element, and there are lots of players... so, a better analogy would be like Risk. Or maybe monopoly? Then again, there's sometimes a lot of co-operation, but reflexes are involved... I have the analogy! Halo's like an online FPS. Yes.
