Bishock is a good game, if you judge it on the demo then you fail.

Southeast Lancer Marines a place where you can go away from the Flood and all the flaming for other conversations

Plasma grenades and lag are like alcohol and driving...they never mix... you hit someone, and sometimes the nade does a bounce off the character, or u get the blue plume of smoke still on the MC but the nade is gome...no wonder no one uses stickies on Halo:PC at all

all the plasma wepons lag, play halo on the XBOX when you use a plama rifle/pistol the rounds travel extremely fast on the PC they travel like a tutrle crossing an 8-lane super highway.


Actually, I don't think it's lag, I think it's how they were programed to act. I've played on a modded map of Death Island where the 'nades, (both kind) traveled as fast and straight and far as sniper rounds and exploded on impact. Slower 'nades take more skill to use and give you a chance to escape if they're being thrown at you.

Also, grenades are heavy in real life. Real soldiers wouldn't be able to hold a weapon in their right hand, and arm and throw a gernade with their left hand at the same time.

Maybe plasma grenades are super-heavy? Remember, they have a huge blast radius.

What?

First off the Masterchief is not a normal soldier. Second, I swear I've seen John Wayne and Robert Mitchum pull grenades off their vest and throw them just fine. Third, in the year 21- whatever you think they might have designed a frag grenade that arms without having to pull a pin.

Yes there was a little sarcasm in there.
