Re: Halo 4 and the 2 weapon limit

In Response To: Re: Halo 4 and the 2 weapon limit (SEspider)

: I can't help but feel the entire Halo4 campaign would have benefited had all
: the Promethian weapons been completely taken out of the equation. Had they
: been part of the armor like the fuel cannons the Hunters use.

Or separate, but still disintegrate with the Prometheans. No reason why they don't do that in the first place.

: The ONLY purpose I see them used for is to remove unwanted bodies from the
: field by designating what they kill. The Bolt shot is clearly meant to
: replace Mahler (or is it Mauler?).

Mauler. Mahler was a Jewish conductor.

: But at least that weapon only had half
: the damage of a shotgun. For full effect, a player had to combine it with
: another weapon (usually another Mahler in H2). But Nope.

Halo 3, actually. I always thought it was a minus, but then again I never liked dual wielding.

Cue angry mob arriving at my doorstep in three, two, one...

: The Incinerator Cannon is a FuelRod Cannon and Rocket Laucher's bastard love
: child on steroids. Like it's parents, it too needs to be aimed near or at
: a player to kill them. Nothing wrong with that. However it also takes out
: twice as many surrounding players with it. Simply because it has bouncing
: one hit = death shrapnel! I want to kill the enemy not myself nor
: teammates!

To Hell with your multiplayer balancing. If something like the Incinerator Cannon (And I have my own problems with it, but MP balance isn't it) doesn't fit in multiplayer, just omit it or balance it independently of the campaign.

: The Promethian Rifle (or PR because I forget it's actual name) is a the
: bastard child of the Carbine and Sniper Rifle. Except it ALWAYS kills in
: one shot. Has half the clip size of the UNSC's but the auto-aim or the
: Carbine. You really don't even need a scope on it but it has one.

I WISH it was always one-hit-kill. The only things it'll kill on the first shot are Watchers, Crawlers, and Grunts.
