It feels like some weapons were made to be bad

weapons like the bulldog and plasma pistol, specifically. they’re so bad to the point I have to wonder why they were included in the game at all

If you cant kill with the Bulldog, then that is on you. I can easily get kills with it when I use it in the situations that fit it best. The Plasma Pistol, I can agree, it needs better tracking.

The Bulldog is strong af, not sure what you’re talking about. It’s a three-shot kill at range which is much faster than any other weapon excluding other shotgun-type weapons like the Heatwave and Mangler which are also three-shots. You can also fire once and kill with a melee.
So for a close-range shotgun weapon it does everything it’s supposed to and has some decent range too.

The Plasma Pistol I do agree with. They need to alter or buff it in some way, I believe

nah the bulldog is the most inconsistent weapon in the whole game. i’ve used it at times and it feels like my fire rate slows down

sometimes i’ll kill someone in 2 hits and sometimes it’ll take 3-4 at the same range

it’s complete dog water

It’s because you are spamming the trigger. The weapon isn’t dogwater, it’s how you are using it is dogwater.

Learn to hit your shots and for the reticle to comeback to its center and you will change your mind on it.

It is literally a player mistake for its “inconsistencies” not the weapon itself. Just gotta get better with it.

I admit I do spam the trigger but that shouldn’t matter when I’m right in the other persons face and the shell has no other place to go other than on target

It does matter though lol, because you may think you have the whole shell on them, when in reality you have half. And if you are at point-blank, one shot and a beatdown will kill instant. Just gotta get good with it. Like any weapon in any FPS.

I’m not keen on the bulldog either, I’d rather have the regular shotgun. I still pick it up and I’m decent with it, just not my cup of tea.
As for the plasma pistol it’s kinda become pointless since they took away the EMP. The tracking of the charge shout is terrible too. Without the EMP it needs a buff to be like the CE version. Personally, give it back it’s EMP ability and change shot weapons from disable vehicles to killing occupants without damaging the vehicle too much. The current shot weapons are way too easy to EMP stun vehicles, especially the shock grenades.

Most of the weapons are too weak, the shotguns, the hydra, the grenade aim thing and the sentinal beam is also made for mouse controls.

It took me 100 times faster to get a straight kill with the Infinite Plasma Pistol as compared to the Halo 3 Plasma Pistol. But, you are right that its tracking seems worse than Halo 3’s, which wasn’t great to begin with. And, with how effective most weapons are, it kind of needs a little bit more support-power, otherwise you die most times trying to use it.

Bulldog is effective, but if you miss one shot, you are likely dead. I do miss the 1-shot Shotgun which could compete with Sword.

Some think Plasma Rifle is weak, but dang it, that weapon is so OP when bots use it on me :sweat_smile: it’s pretty effective
