Subject: Let's see, after that video: Halo 1 shotty is back, new charac...

number one stunna

ALright, after close observation, i noticed:

that in the background, on one of the monitor/TV's, there's a rendered Masterchief holding a Halo 1 shotgun. The difference between the Halo 1 and 2 shotguns is:
The foregrip is different. Halo 1 shotty had large bulbous grips, not skinny vent/slots. The shotgun I saw had those lumps.

There is a bar running along the barrel connecting the rear and forward crossharis in Halo 1. It's not in Halo 2 to my knowledge. I saw the bar in the video. I also noticed that the shotgun in the video looked longer, with more curves then the Halo 2 shotty, much Like Halo 1.

I also spotted what looked like an elite with fancy armor, and some new humanoid looking figure.

the halo hype machine begins..... now!

Everything will be gone long before me. When the first living thing was born, I was here, waiting. When the last living thing dies, my job is finished. I'll put the chairs on the tables, turn out the lights and lock the universe behind me when I leave.

No, it's the same. I compared it with a render of the Halo 2 shotgun. It's the same thing (or looks the same).

Me thinks the Halo 1, 2 and 3 shottys are the same. *Checks manuals for official names in Halo 1 and 2* Yup same name, same design too.

They aren't even close. The Halo 1 shotty does damage at about 3x the range the Halo 2 does. And the Halo 2 one is darker, and shorter.

You gotta be kiddin me. Start up some halo 1, the halo 1 shotgun completely owns the halo 2 one. All his points about the shotgun are correct, halo 1 and 2 shotgun are far different. Halo 2 shotgun has GREEN sights, and looks very different from Halo 1s. If the H1 shotgun is back, I'm gonna be a very happy person.

LOL the sword uses lock on and is mostly a one hit kill. The shotgun from halo 1 only killed in one shot at a very close range and at the sword's lock on range equivilent could only make a 2 or 3 shot kill. Don't worry the shotgun is much less powerful and more balanced than the sword. Though even if this next game is using the old shotty sprite that doesn't meaan that the charachteristics are the same such as damage and other issues.

Also did anyone see what looked like an engineer or at least part of it in the right hand screeen just a few seconds before the part where they show the spartan model with the shotgun?

*Shakes head* Guys guys guys sheesh. I said it's the same gun by design and designation. I am fully aware that they act differantly but that was a balancing decission on Bungies part. Aside from that they are the same gun it terms of technicalities.

One game I'm not joking a little like 7 year old said and I quote " tell me what your dick looks like so I can imagine it in my head and beat off to it"

If Team Swat became ranked, would there still be no shields?


Amazing!

You gotta be kiddin me. Start up some halo 1, the halo 1 shotgun completely owns the halo 2 one. All his points about the shotgun are correct, halo 1 and 2 shotgun are far different. Halo 2 shotgun has GREEN sights, and looks very different from Halo 1s. If the H1 shotgun is back, I'm gonna be a very happy person.

You ever play Halo: CE online? Latency makes a worlds difference.

Halo 1 wasn't designed for LIVE ;) But yeah, that's the Halo 1 shotgun. The foregrip gives it away. For those that don't know, the foregrip is the part he grabs infront of the trigger handle. So i guess you could call it the pump, or pump handle.

Its the same gun, check the manuals it had the same exact name. They do look the same just a color difference. The damage and range was changed because of balance issues, doesnt mean the guns different.

They still share the same look (A Vacuum cleaner) so as long as it still works as good as Halo 1, and 2 it is fine with me.
