I would've liked it in Reach.
Could have let it have the fastest firing rate in the game (think same as two SMG's combined), but very poor accuracy and low bullet damage so that it cannot be used effectively at any decent range, even when burst firing like the AR, leaving that as the workhorse weapon.
The bloom would just max out as soon as you fired pretty much.
That way it tears through people in close quarters out of sheer bullet volume alone without being a one hit kill like the Shotgun or Sword, or relying straight on melees like the Plasma Rifle.
And speaking of the Spiker, they should've made that thing do serious health damage, but low shield damage. Maybe then it wouldn't be a plasma rifle clone.
I try to use the spiker but it just seems like it sucks so much in Reach. Takes forever to kill someone with it, let alone drop their shields.
Yeah, its no good sadly. They probably didn't think beforehand that they would put it in MM much, considering neither it or the Plasma Rifle benefit from the Elite target tracking thingy for other Covenant weapons.
