The Spartan Laser is going to be sweet, but its going to have its strengths and weaknesses, just like any other weapon. People that think its going to be over-powerful or what-not, shouldn't be too quick to judge. Chances are, there will only be one on a map, and its going to have limited ammunition and the rate of fire is extremely slow; not to mention that when getting ready to fire or whatever, the post said you would "paint" people. I'm sure you would notice if you were being painted and be smart enough to get out of the way, or find cover. You could easily get picked off using it too. In the 3 seconds it takes to charge, I could put 4 sniper rounds in your head, and in close quarters, you'd be long dead before you could even get a shot off. Its a long-range anti-vehicle weapon. Key in objective based games I'm sure, but I bet its only going to be slightly better than the rocks in a slayer match.
I look forward to seeing it in action, as well as the "mauler" and "chopper" whatever those may be.
