Each time someone stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. That hope is three little numbers: 1 - 1 - 7.
There is hope in us all. We gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face. We must do the thing which we think we cannot do; stand with the Master Chief and Finish this Fight!
Why oh why am I writting this as my fever is getting higher and my nose is like a battle zone between the Flood and the Snot!
Anyways just read a long thread as to why the pistol should not be in the Halo 3 game, I am going to defend its rightfull place in the next Halo game and try to explain why it was such a great weapon.
First up, for those of you who are called "pistol-whores" and who use the gun as a primary gun, good for you, you have develped a skill by which you could kill a Spartan in just 3 head shots, or 5 if you are a little inacurate. Althought Bungie did admitaley overpower the weapon somewhat, the skill required to get a kill at a long-distance is extremely high, thats why I think that the pistol is hated so much, not everyone knows how to use it. Plus the scope which allows you to zoom makes it a very leathal weapon, and the origin of the line of fire cannot be seen easily.
This is why I treat the pistol as a semi-silencer cause its good at long - medium ranges but at close up its a relative innefective weapon, should you lose your cool and not get the 3 bullets in the head required for a kill.
But it does not stop there, the usage of the gun is also a brilliant Anti-Sniper gun, for of you Camping Snipers out-there, the pistol was a brilliant weapon to take out the Sniper of any given team in any given situation. Sure now we have the BR but the caliber of the bullet is what makes the pistol a unique weapon, one that earns its place in the Halo 3 list.
The BR being loud, failrly detectle, The pistol was a much more leathal weapon, one that cannot be understimated under any circumstances in any given map or situation. Flame if you will but know the more you flame me, it will undeline the fact that you indeed fear the pistol!
