Turret, he is talking to you, and you know that. The H1 pistol was awsome, but it was in H1, I want something new for H3. Also the pistol would give horrible host advantage if H3 had online play anything like H2.

A mythic member but I speak my mind to much.

Bring it back, that gun was great for every thing close range, mid range, long range fire fights that gun was the weapon you could trust to get the job done in 3 well placed shots. Learning to use the old pistol could make you unstopable and your ability to kill was based on your skill level.


If you don;t want it back you were most likey the people that weren't good with it, not saying any one is bad at halo, just with the old pistol which was a skill that had to be trained.

Yes, but it devalued all the other guns.

Well, I love the Halo 1 pistol, but you do make a good point.

I liked it too, and it balanced the game, but it did it by removing all the other guns. You started with the best gun in the gaem so the only other gun worth picking up was the sniper.

i love the m6d, but i think h3's pistol shoud be somewhere in between the m6d and the magnum. you know, stronger than the magnum but not as powerful as the m6d

I think that Bungie should make the pistol loose power and accuracy as you get a far away, sure three hits kill up close but mid-range it takes maybe six or seven, and you can forget about hitting people at far range. It is a pistol.

yeah i agree maybe make a mix but plz plz plz plz don't bring in the plasma pistol for XBOX LIVE it is the easiest gun to use and it is soooooo DAMN enoying! one shot takes ur whole shield down even if u have an overshield whats up with that!? get rid of it or make it so it dosen't take ur overshield fully off.


Halo 3 is gonna rock!!! [:)

If you wanna see an airplane cemetery, why don't you just find an old airplane and look at where it goes?

It's okay for the Plasma Pistol to take off the Overshield since the Overshield is just a cheap powerup, anyway, but the problem with the Plasma Pistol is just that it takes barely any skill to use it and that it's much more effective than guns that require quite a bit of skill to use. Anyway, the Pistol from Halo 1 was okay, but that's because all of the weapons in Halo 1 were pretty good (except for the Needler except for in some very specific situations). If all of the weapons in Halo 3 are pretty strong, then it would be okay to have the Pistol from Halo 1 in it. Also, I think that the Pistol was good at all ranges, but almost every other weapon was great at just one range (and maybe only good at one other range).
