Maybe Split-Screen confirmation for Halo CEA?
Or maybe a hint at tweaked pistol for Reach 
Either way, it’s looking good.

Thanks! It works now.

I just listened to it again. When he says “it could be fun again who knows?” It really gets me thinking that they are trying hard to get something going for the CE Pistol for those that really want its return.(Again, just wild speculation on my part)
Great Sparkast! 
Thank you a lot. I’m like a podcast addicted. And the funny part is that I don’t even understand English.
You’re always on the front line, Hero of Time. You deserve all the cookies I have. I hope someday you get a CL medal.

Why you must love Podcast!! You have to understand some English or do you use a translation program?? What language do you speak?
And I noticed how they said that every weapon is now a skill requiring weapon. Now to be fair, I think this is true. I mean come on, the DMR in Reach is skillful once you master bloom, the Assault Rifle is skillful when you fire in controlled, well aimed bursts. What makes me believe this the most is that every time I play Elite Slayer, people rage at me because I fill them full of Plasma from my pistol (Say nothing… You people and your dirty minds…). I am called a hacker because I have an itchy trigger finger and don’t want to charge it and hit them.
So next time I gun you down on Elite Slayer on Countdown. Don’t rage and say I have a modded controller, just know I have the skill to use the Plasma Pistol to its fullest potential.
Oh yeah…
Do you have a link?
Damn it. you beat me to the punch

Sorry I do that sometimes.

You simply can’t beat Link 1201 when it comes to posting links to breaking news. Half the time he posts these things even before 343 does lol.
I’m convinced he lives 1 day in the future. Ya… that must be it…

I think that’s true to an extent. I think any weapon can be used skillfully and unskillfully but some weapons lend themselves to be a bit tougher to master. The GL for example is deadly in the right hands and worthless in the wrong ones.
Thanks for the heads up! Although it was kinda lame for a podcast that is released right before Halofest…

They are live streaming the whole thing on IGN and will have information on the websites homepage.
I would prefer that than a short podcast.
Alright, the Sparkast is here, fair enough. I never listen to it because it’s tedious and I can get all the important information from the forums later anyway. More importantly, where is the Bulletin?! D:

D: I am assuming it will come out in the next hour or so, bs ange is keeping quiet on Twitter.
Whoever made that change to make the God Pistol, give him a medal.
Go ahead, 343. Give. Him. A. Medal.

Seriously a 6SK CE pistol would of been WAY UP compared to the rest of the Sandbox. Even a 4SK CE pistol would of been pushing it. I hate that they fail to mention the overall power of the rest of the Halo CE Sandbox was stronger than in any other Halo game. The plasma rifle,shotgun,PP,and the AR(especially with beatdowns) were all better in CQB than the Ce pistol unless the pistol user clutched it, as was the sniper and rocket launcher at longer ranges if you knew how to use them. The needler was good for surprise kills but otherwise worthless.If you put the CE pistol into the Halo 3 sandbox it might have been a little OP, but It was perfectly fine in HCE due especially due to the difficulty of the TSK and in comparison with the power of the rest of the Sandbox.
