+Mystic MVC Posted February 13, 2007 MVC Share Posted February 13, 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygDfGB7Lca4 Interesting, but the video isn't very clear. I guess if it was, that would kill the whole "suspicious" part of it :p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted February 13, 2007 Global Moderator Share Posted February 13, 2007 And it says this is an alpha vid, so it's pretty old. We need newer beta screenshots and videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trong Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 M6D = Halo 1 Pistol? Pardon me, I have never played #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magik Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 ^ It's a modified version of the Halo 1 pistol, yes. The background is this: Halo 1 pistol was an insanely powerful weapon. Some would say a little too powerful. It had a scope and only took 3-shots (head shots) to score a kill. It also had no delay time (the only delay was how fast you could press the trigger). In Halo 2, however, Bungie severely nerfed the weapon. It was also renamed to 'Magnum'. It took almost a whole clip to score a kill. Then with the 1.1 Update, they nerfed it even more to the point that it was virtually useless and required players to dual-weild it to make it effective. Even then it was severely underpowered. So, now the Halo 1 pistol is apparently back in Halo 3, yet won't have a scope and won't be as powerful, but it will definitely be more useful than the Halo 2 magnum.

Most of the lan parties I had with friends, we used the AR as starting and pistol secondary. Within 5 secs, everybody would be on pistols. :D Unless it was Boarding Action, even then a friend of mine would be in top 3 (of 8) using just the pistol! And he sucked with movement but with insanely accurate pistol shots, he was very difficult to tackle. :| Magnum sucks bigtime. The pistol's return in a more tamed form is what I am looking forward to. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
