So we have our Halo CE magnum, and to be honest, it looks entirely out of place in Halo 5. To resolve this I propose we bring in the Halo 2 Anniversary Magnum to get a little bit of the CE Mag’s power, but with a less… repulsive design.
The Halo 2 magnum was terrible. It looked lame, and it required duel wielding to be useful. The Halo 5 magnum, and CE magnum out class it in every way.
halo 2 pistol was GARBAGE, duel wielding point blank it still sucked. I’d rather have the weak silenced pistol from ODST than that halo 2 crap, at least that was still good for headshots in single player.
They M6D was purposely recreated in H5 to look exactly as it did in Halo CE. Hard polygons and all. The M6C (the Halo2 mag) is utter garbage in comparison.

exactly, as I said it looks out of place.

I know, but it still is such an eye sore.

I wasn’t great, but it outclasses the Halo reach magnum which I actually thought about suggesting. (I think, been a while since I played reach as my disk got scratched)

I don’t know. As I said this is just a proposition.

Since people aren’t entirely getting my flow here, allow me to elaborate. I simply want a “classic” magnum that fits well with the Halo 5 environment, and since they added the H2A BR, I thought the Halo 2 Magnum could fit Halo 5 as nicely as the H2A BR. Seems not everyone entirely agrees with me, which is exactly why I asked for opinions.

The Halo 2 Magnum is fun to shoot, but thats about all you’ll be able to do with it. Shoot. Not kill.
The Halo 2 magnum is very satisfying to use, I admit at times in the campaign i’d trade out the common weapons, just to use It.
But I don’t think it has a place in Halo 5, it would be very pointless, even in Halo 2 multiplayer you never see someone running around with one, it was a fun weapon to use on single player but I think its as far as it goes
“Halo One Pistol” (yes, that’s seriously what it’s named in-game) is ugly, and it’s not even an accurate recreation of the original gun in the first place.
The Halo 2 Pistol was worthless though. Aesthetically it’s okay looking, but functionally what would be the point of bringing it back?
