Hey i think it would be good to have a new covie sniper kind-of a thingy where instead of a laser beam it's a consintrated blasma burst that penitrates through metal walls and vehichals. Also you guys have been mentioning an AR with a scope well here's my say, i think that there sould be a BR-AR combination so you could like change between 3-round burst and full-auto.
Also the humans need somthing to rival the shadow mabey somthing with four treads and has an ATV underneath and is armed with a Sorpion main gun and a Wraith's morter, with a few chainguns for good measure.
That's it for now.

the covie sniper thing, also i thought of a sawed of human sniper that is less acurate but is eaiser to handel at close range.

So we have to have sawed off snipers now? What ever happened to sawed off shoguns? Those not good enough for you?

seeing as how this is sposed to be about snipers i think when your zoomed in and you press white or whatever it is on360 it activates a laser sight so you can see the little red dot on peoples heads and other people standinng next to them could see them to, probably wouldn't be much help but it would look cool.

i think the covi sniper W/ the consitrated PLASMA burst is excellent idea but the shooting through walls is stupid but i like the shooting through vehicles is a great idea so we could finally take down a wraith from far away way to go

Erm, that would be called a Railgun folks and it would rock, however, it would probably need to use a more powerful form of the Fuel Rod gun ammo. You could probably only use it while crouching due to the recoil.

and then i think with the human sniper they should change it into 3 different guns so u have a long med and short range sniper
now of course the long range would be the most powerful but not travel as fast and u would be able to scope mAbee 3x instead of the usual 2x the mid range would not be as powerful as the long range but about the same as the normal sniper of H2 and the short range sniper would travel quicker then either sniper but would only scope 1x fore close range sniping

yeah ur probably right about the recoil but still the worst thing would probably be thatu would probably have to wait a few seconds for it to charge or it would just take a long time to cool off so you better hit them the first time

Those are some decent ideas...but the thing is, if we have any more vehicles that "match" covenant vehicles, the game will be extremely cluttered in terms of variety. Though I do think the ATV should make a comeback, I don't think it really matches the shadow.

The ATV is the perfect Sniper's vehicle. Nobody else would want to use it since its so vulnerable and all it does it get you out into the middle of nowhere to that really nice sniping position up on the hill fast.

um... the sniper rifle is for sniping. why would you want a close range sniper rifle? so you can fire it like a semi auto 2 hit kill auto aim assist super gun? i think that the human sniper should have HALF of its current firing speed,no auto aim, and should (to make up for what it lost) should feel more like a powerful gun, and it should pass through people like in halo 1.

beam rifle isnt too bad. but its super fast burst could make up for the human sniper's pass through ability
