In the Halo universe there are already hand held weapons that use coil gun technology. Though not present in game. An example is the M99 Gauss rifle, it is a man portable rifle that fires bullets over great distances because of the speed. I think it would be a cool idea to make a sniper that uses coilgun technology to fire bullets over long distances. It would have a complete visual overhaul and look nothing like the past snipers in halo games. Tell me your opinions.
Thats a cool idea and i think it would work.
But i would miss the sniper

The sniper we have now is out dated. We need a new one for the new trilogy.
I really want to hear your opinions.
The Sniper will never leave.

What?
Trying to remove the sniper will cause you to be sniped by the Master Sniper. You don’t wanna mess with the Master Sniper.

What?
I expected more.
Nice idea, but doesn’t really work. If you added the M99, you would have to deal with huge forces. In orther words, the rifle would be capable of punching through a Warthog with its ~2 gigapascals of impact pressure. Simply said, the weapon would be overpowered, capable of killing anyone in a single shot and blowing up Warthogs and even Scorpions.
That said, I would love to see that mythical weapon in campaign. It sounds like a badass weapon.
P.S. Don’t bump your threads in the future, it’ll get you banned.

Who said it has to be that powerful? Canon=/=gameplay

It wouldn’t really make sense to make it as powerful as a regular sniper rifle. The interesting thing about is the raw power. If that doesn’t is changed, the only difference would be the sound and visual effects. I’d rather keep the regular sniper rifle for matchmaking and only get to use the Stanchion rifle in campaign.
I’ll just say it…WHY!!! Why make changes for the sake of making changes? The sniper is fine, it has always been fine and it will continue to be fine. We dont need it to be overhauled. Its one of the few weapons that has been consistently balanced and decent across the series.
I’d like that actually, sort of like the Oneshot from Gears 3. It should have a really low ammo count and take a bit of time to set up, but it should be able to rip through things. I could see something like that existing alongside the original sniper.

Isn’t MC lost in another planet?
Unless the forerunners happen to own more advance weapons than the UNSC and actually wanted to share them with MC…it wouldn’t make any sense otherwise.
