Four shots is not enough. A few seconds and the entire clip could be gone. Make the clip at least 6. Do you think the clip should be enlarged?

4 is average for a sniper rifle. Why exactly should it be bigger?


Oh wait. He must be one of those people who doesn't know what a sniper rifle is really for. Sad... sad... sad...

I do but with large games and a lot of enemies after you at one time with four bullets can be kind of difficult.

Some sniper rifles have more than four rounds.

I don't think there should be any more rounds per magazine. I'm used to the four round. What needs to be fixed is how much ammo you can carry. In Campaign, you always never seem to have enough ammo that you'll find yourself using Covenant weapons again and again. Or you simply have to conserve ammo.

As always, you're going to have roving bands of whiners all over your tail complaining that the sniper rifle is unfair because then it could take out the whole team in one clip.

-Its a MG42!
-My favorite color is bubble shield

Think what would happen if everything got 3/2 the normal shots
3 rockets
6 snipers
150 plasma weapons (including beam rifle)
6 grenades
45 needlers
18 pistol
90?smg
18+36? battlerifle
Energy sword what ever
27 shotgun
alot of other stuff i am too lazy to count. I would be unfiar
Why don't you practice and just get a head shot or maybe throw a grenade or use the smg.

Edit:Besides, the whole point was to even out weapons. The sniper rifle has only a few shots and is very bad a short range, but very powerfull from anywhere else

Shotgun would be 18 and the Battle Rifle would actually be 18+36 aka um, uhhh... what is 18 + 36?

-Its a MG42!
-My favorite color is bubble shield

The way he siad it, it seemed like he took halve of what it already was and added it to the already clip
so 4/2=2 2+4=6
so with the br i meant 36/2=18 18+36=(i was too lazy to figure out so i just put that but it is)54
Rocket 2/2=1 1+2=3
ECT

So how much does the shotgun hold 12?

Carrots.

Would you like more things on the human Sniper too? Here is some things I would do to the pistol.

Polish the feeding ramp, the bullets don't go in fast enaugh out of the clip, yes, you can use a realy fast rapid fire, but the feeding ramp would naturaly get dirty or scratched this way.
Use a surpressor or scilencer, its particularly loud, louder than the SMG or plasma rifle.
Don't use the average aiming peice, use a three-point system, it works alot better.
The slide needs to be re-inforced.
The grip is too small, there needs to be some grooves, or maybe... edges on it, so that it wont fall out of your hands, the Magazine itself needs to be fitted with smaller projectiles but with longer ones too, and the handle should be crafted so the Magazine could slide out easily when in an emergancy system.
The Trigger should be replaced by one you don't pull back with the top of your finger, but one you pull with the edge of your finger, therefore holding the gun stedier.

But, y'know, it wont happen, your sniper idea will most likeley not happen, and my idea sure as hell WON'T happen.

what is 18 + 36?

If you don't know that... you shouldn't be playing Halo.
My god, I mean... if you don't know that, your most likeley not passed grade three!
*Sigh* The Answer is 54

Sorry but I do not agree with you, but the sniper rifle should deffinetly have more back up ammunition like instead of twenty, MC and Arbiter can carry thirty six back up ammunition for the sniper which would decrease having to go find more ammo all the time and make the game more fun. Also the sniper rifle should have night vision as it did on Halo CE.

So what? Then a few more seconds and the entire clip would be gone. So what? The weapons are supposed to be limited. Any other weapons you'd inexplicably like to be needlessly upgraded regardless of any balance issues to satisfy your own personal and misguided whims?

No, it's fair to me and will always be.

Hail to the Victors! Reppin' that MAIZE n BLUE!!!
Perfect Grenade
Chill bro. Gotta get my bowl.

It's been four and will always be four.

You just want a powerful weapon to become even more powerful.
