Poll: Is this idea reasonable? (read below) [closed]
Total Votes: 23
Please read before voting. I'm not calling the sword "cheap." I'm not calling it "unbalanced." However, I would like an opinion from everyone on this matter.
The sword is a great weapon. Fantastic for close-range use. As for the ability to take it out and kill someone instantly, I find it lacks sensibility. I'm sure you've all been running at a guy holding a battle rifle, not knowing he's holding the sword. He'll switch weapons and lunge at you semi-instantly, as if he lunged with his battle rifle.
The Idea
My idea, is that the Sword in Halo 3, considering it exists, should have to be fully out (with the blade turned on) before having any sort of ability to attack or lunge. The sword would have a longer "Taking out" time. This would also drastically decrease the ability to do any sort of "Reticle Lunge", such as using the rocket launcher. (I have had someone use their Battle Rifle reticle to lunge 30+ feet with the sword.)
Please, give your thoughtful opinion, if you have one. If you don't have any sort of opinion worth stating, then don't. Be nice, don't flame eachother, or myself.
