Subject: What's your favorite weapon from the Halo series.

Mine is the AR because it's just such a classic.

because Meta

He's right on top of us! I wonder if he is using the same wind we are using...

Ockeghem
Missa Prolationum

Gotta go with the sword.

I wanted one sooooo bad in CE.

And then I got one!

Edit: I can't believe so many people are going with the original AR. Soooooo useless on legendary...even heroic. Cant hit the side of a barn.

Aforementioned metaphors with semiconsious ocean laws.

Easily the sticky grenade. The satisfaction of getting a ridiculous stick makes me want to go play some halo right now.

Life is short, live to serve others.

I would have to say that the H3 Spartan Laser is my favorite weapon.

There are so many awesome weapons but I'm gonna have to go with the Halo: CE Assault Rifle. It's iconic and the large magazine makes spraying rounds at Elites and Grunts a lot of fun.

Render Unto The Flood

Easily the energy sword, it's so satisfiying when I chop someone.

  • 07.10.2012 10:22 PM PDT

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

There's no gun that I can say I "Don't like". They're all really cool, and I can't pick a single favorite. Shotguns and Pistols are a great way to have fun on Easy and Normal.

Gotta say, H3 splazer was pretty awsome the first time used it. Really changed the game in anti-vehicular warfare.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Silenced SMG or the Plasma Launcher.

Dual SMG's

  • 07.11.2012 6:19 AM PDT

There is a thin line between insanity and genius, i would put myself right in the middle and i enjoy every second of it.

I don't have a favorite really... I'm tied between two because it's my favorite combo: Brute Shot and BR

  • 07.11.2012 7:22 AM PDT

Sword or Halo CE pistol.

CE:

-needler. Enough said. The thing makes art: multiple supercombine explosions, affects dead bodies, can be used with plasma grenades to launch enemy, reliable and reasonable EMP & blast radius. There is nothing more amazing than freezing AI and putting in hundreds of shards and watching them launch into orbit. Was good at stopping shield recharge and stunning but more importantly, it's shards was avoidable and it's spread was predictable.

-plasma rifle. Just look at the way CE Elites wield this. And the best part is, it's as effective in your hands (not to mention that it has stronger stun capability), especially if you have decent cover.

-pistol. Not just because of it's power... only time I ever needed that kind of stopping power was against Jackals and the more tougher Flood (rocket launcher wielders). But because it's loud firing noise had an effect on AI (then again, most CE guns might have that) and there was surplus ammo, good range, and spread wasn't too bad. Automatic firing is a cool feature.

-sniper rifle. The newer Halos try to make the sniper difficult or easy to use by giving more kickback and other atrocities (strong autoaim). The CE sniper closely matches the sniper used by Linda in canon not to mention it's got the silenced effect on AI. And night vision. And IIRC, it was possible to snipe Banshee drivers out in Halo PC mp.

-plasma pistol. Took down anything with concentration. Overcharged bolt could be used to stun enemies. Tracking worked from an impressive range.

-shotgun. Taking down armies of fast running Flood in a dark place with pretty damn epic music in the background. Enough said. In the other trilogy games, Flood rarely appear in large numbers and when they do, they can easily be defeated by headshots or melee

-plasma grenade

-assault rifle

-Hunter. Friendly fire disabled for enemies made for fun betrayals.

-Elite Zealot. Friendly fire disabled for enemies made for fun betrayals. Also, Zealots are goddamn good at slaying Flood.

-Carrier Forms. They were very convenient

H2:

-plasma grenade. Chain reactions were still possible. And best part is that you can melee grenades. Sticks are reliable most of the time and has the added effect of making AI lose their ability to fire their guns (whether by being unable to produce a sword or by being inattentive). Finally, double grenade is very useful for launches
-rocket launcher. Homing was great in H2 while it's unreliable in Reach
-fuel rod gun. Powerful, didn't bounce. Best part is that enemies had as good of an aim as in CE. Not too much like in Reach. And there's virtually no game guidance for AI compared to H3 fuel rod gun which exhibits slight homing when fired by AI
-brute shot. Wasn't just a reskinned rocket launcher with a weaker projectile. It could fire around corners and reset the fall timer (bridge jump has nothing on this)
-sword. Obviously anyone who has played H2 will have become acquainted with sword cancelling. It's a great glitch
-BR. The button combos make it even more useful
-SMG
-Carbine
-Johnson. Rtas Vadum was just lame (in gameplay) compared to Johnson

Shotgun from Halo CE
Plasma repeater
Halo 3 battle rifle
Reach`s spiker

Needler Rifle...

The precision of a DMR with the super combine of a Needler! Doesn't get sexier than that.

  • 07.29.2012 1:55 PM PDT
