Halo 5 Weapons.

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

After watching hours of Warzone Gameplay I’ve seen all the weapon’s it has in store and some are great, others are not so great. and some I hope they add in.

the weapons I didn’t see but really want to:
Fuel Rod. ( hopefully they make it sound a lot meaner)
Beam Rifle. (I hope they keep the Halo 4 Variant)
Gravity Hammer. (who doesn’t like sending a warthog flying)
the promethean Sniper (forgot what it’s called)
Pulse Grenades.
Scattershot.

The weapons I saw and Loved:
Plasma Caster (pretty much a plasma launcher)
Hydra (pretty much another Plasma launcher, but with tracking abilities)
Promethean turret.

The weapons I’m okay about:
Precision weapons: BR/Carbine/DMR/Light rifle (they look awesome, especially the Carbines color changing scope. But they sound kind of wimpy)
Assault weapons: suppressor/assault rifle/Storm Rifle, these all seem fine to me, not very exciting but dependable.

Gold Medal Power Weapons.(weapons that can hold their own)
Sniper Rifles (As always the Snipers are 1-2 shot kills at a long distance)
Rocket Launcher (same as always, a dependable killing machine that generally guarantee’s a kill)
Saw (Good up close, good at mid range, it’s the jack of all trades)

Silver Medal Power Weapons (Weapons that had potential but ultimately let you down)
Concussion Rifle (seeing the health is similar to that of Halo 4 you will only win with this gun if they are cornered)
Energy Sword (if your lucky, at full sprint, in a hallway, catching them off guard. you may get the kill before they take you out with an Assault Rifle)
Plasma Caster (from what I’ve seen it’s like a rapid grenade launcher. and it acts the same as having a pocket full of grenades. I didn’t see target tracking.)
Shotgun (same reasons as the Sword, it requires the player to close the distance and get close enough but any other weapon will kill them before that happens.

Weapons that should be added or created.
Reach Focus Rifle or sentinel Beam (instead of it being a sniper have it similar to the saw)
Glassing Beam-only on certain maps- (and yes I know, it would be kind of a rip off of the gears of war “hammer of dawn”)
Black Hole grenade. (implement this with the pulse grenade so that when it detonates instead of going out, objects within the kill zone get sucked in.)

What do you guy’s think. What weapons are you excited about? not excited about? do you agree with my list of useful and non-useful weapons? what weapons would you like to see added?

I’d like to see the gravity hammer as well. But pulse grenades? Those things are, to me, worthless.

They are ONLY good to chuck on a flag that was just put down, to take away the shield of someone grabbing it, and even then it’s only like 2 seconds of worthwhileness.

They could probably buff pulse grenades since you no longer spawn with them by default.

Performance in one game does not equate performance in another, especially when a system like loadouts is gone.

5

plasma caster reminds me of halo reach. pretty cool actually

6

I’m actually kind of surprised the concussion rifle remained with the existance of the plasma caster.

7

From what I could tell, the plasma caster looked like it functioned like the H2 brute shot (loved that gun) while hip firing and like a non tracking plasma launcher from Reach while in scope.

It’s seen as a Requisition in Warzone. like tier 3 I think. I have not seen any gameplay of it yet, but it’s there.

Why? In reach we also had plasma thrower and concussion

I’m guessing because it bounces like the brute shot and shoots like it too (after all the concussion rifle replaced the brute shot). while the plasma launcher was a charge shot and released tracking plasma grenades that moved slower in comparison.

Alright I was assuming that the caster is also a charging weapon.

I like the fact that the plasma caster is in the game, but I doubt that ill ever use it. What are your thoughts on some of the vehicles. I really want to fly one of those forerunner Vitol ships.

In a sprint episode of development of warzone someone was testing a fuel rod against a new designed better wraith but the fuel rod looks so different for there new covenant design

I’m really liking the vehicles so far, the ghost and banshee look much bulkier than previous versions and I noticed the banshee has a shield around it now. The prometheon phaeton reminds me of the hornet and I love the wave dash it can do. I’m glad they brought a forerunner gunship into the game.

Can you provide a link? I’m interested in what the fuel rod looks like now, and the wraith! I also want to see how they sound.

Yeah I noticed all of the vehicles looked really cool, and many of them seemed to handle really well. For the most part I enjoy the weapons, although I’m still getting used to the Battle Rifle sounding like a single shot because it’s so fast.

legendary weapons are a good addition to the game. A way to enhance other weapons but keep some fan classics the same
