That would make no sense what so ever. 3SK also ruins Halo CE IMO.

the only reason people have a chance in halo classic is because there's so much lagg you always have to aim ahead of your target you can't just shoot him dead on with the pistol

I actually found that to be one of the good things in CE that made it fun. CE has actual power weapons, unlike halo 3 were every gun can kill you pretty much equally. Also how would it not make sense, it's a fictional world set in the future 500 years from now, I'm sure a pistol would be one thing that's pretty decent.

Wait wait wait, how is it a bad thing that weapons are balanced in Halo?

Halo is not a game of power weapons, if you want that go play...I dunno, UT3?

Don't twist my words.

silly rabbit, twix are for kids.

Uh, last time I checked, Halo : Combat Evolved, was a game with power weapons. Weather you like that or not, its a fact. What should be balanced in Halo is the map's layout and bsp's. If its asymmetrical, thats when you really have to start toying with the weapon positions.

Also, as for the balanced weapons is a bad thing, I never stated or really implied it, I just don't like it becuase there's nothing you get to dominate over. Yeah, maybe area's (like in most halo games) but like in halo 3, there's no better weapons, becuase they all do the same thing and each kill pretty fast in there own way. Also in Halo 3, there is a LOT of weapons. I think this is why the guns are so much more balanced out unlike in Halo 2 or 1.

Halo 1's dominating weapon set implies more use of cover, getting better k/d, etc, striving for higher area's of the map, and most importantly, getting those better dominating weapons. UT3 isn't like this, ut3 is completely more fast paced, you can die easier, and you can hold every weapon you pick up without reloading.

lol, oh boy..

I never really thought of it that way and I don't know why the hell I even used UT3 as an example.

Balanced weapons are nice though because there's no crap to complain about. "OH HE HAS THIS WEAPON THAT'S UNFAIR WHINE WHINE MOAN MOAN"

Everyone can kind of take their own weapon and play their own way instead of ALWAYS having to go for the stupid power weapon(s) and repeat matches over and over in the same way.

Well thats what we have Custom Edition for. Thousands upon thousands of maps for many different matches and ways to deal with things, including new weapons, tag sets etc, for example, look at MPG3.

And my soon to be maps which feature their own flavor in balance.
