So now that we’ve seen the new weapons (and the refined old ones), what do you guys think?
I personally love the Rocket Launcher, the Railgun, and the SAN (I think that’s the name?). They are bad -Yoink-!
I personally DON’T like the sound of the shotgun and magnum. Magnum sounds like it fires underwater or something, or fires shots of jell-o or something; doesn’t have the “umph” it used it. Same with Shotgun; it sounds like the Magnum SHOULD sound like.

I like them all. Especially the railgun, SAW, AR, BR, DMR,the sniper sound, the Spartan Laser, and the Sticky Detonator. I actually kinda like the sound of the shotgun. You should try listening to it with headphones or earphones on, you can kinda tell that the shotgun has kind of a “thump” sound when it fires. I am getting used to the magnum sound. I think the sniper’s look has grown on me, and I’m coming to like it pretty well, especially after hearing it’s sound. I also don’t like the rocket sound, it has that annoying metallic clinging sound instead of a “BOOM!”.

Ah, SAW makes more sense. Easy to remember too, nice. My video quality just sucks, then again I was watching on YouTube at 360p
Yeah they look dope. So glad they brought more than 1 or 2 new weapons. And the ones they DID bring, look dope! I suppose the SAW is kind of like an SMG in a way, just looks and sounds different. But the effect is similar. Hopefully it won’t be nearly as useless or have nearly the wide spread as the SMG though.
Stick Detenator is really exciting. Thing I have ALWAYS wanted in Halo was a way to “trap” people like that. Like with the “remote mines” in Goldeneye for Nintendo 64: plant one somewhere, go hide out of sight, and BOOM! lol. Love it.
Is it just me or does the sniper kinda feel like the Halo 2 one?
Anyway, all the new weapons and changes to old ones look great, no real complaints other than maybe some weapons don’t sound as powerful and awesome and they promised…but it’s not the final product anyway.
The SAW also is kinda a replacement for the Halo 1 AR/the SMG since there’s no dual wielding.
The railgun seems like a mini MAC cannon. Sweet!
Overall, I just can’t wait to get my hands on the sandbox and experience it for myself. 90-ish days to go.
I think that most of them sound weak. The rocket lawnchair just doesn’t sound right, and thr others sound silenced. I do like the sound of the Laser and Railgun, though, but that’s just what I think.
I agree that most of the weapons sound awesome and look amazing, but the sniper sounded pretty pathetic. Being a firearms enthusiast, I can tell that they are using a .223 to create their .50 cal sniper sound. I was expecting hear a hearty .50cal boom.
Annoyed with the new weapons. The pistol was weakened even further back to pathetic Halo 2 magnum level, but yet the battlerifle AND DMR are kept in it’s place? Using the dev’s own words, being outsniped by a guy with a DMR, while you carry a sniper rifle…but no…pistol is too powerful.
I’m starting to get disappointed by everything I’m hearing. From what I’m hearing so far, it’s starting to sound like Call of Duty: Halo Edition.
Magnum doesnt sound like it has the power it used to have, shotgun looks boss and im kinda happy they added a scope for it it could be more useful if u want to be more accurate.
Yay rocket launcher boom boom pow lol, sniper rifle looks like a tank scope was put on it looks weird i think but still fun.
As for the saw and railgun…
Personally im liking the saw and railgun, saw you could mow down at least 2 people or 3 in a clip omg never thought halo would get a weapon like that so i think the saw will be a go to gun for alot of players, railgun looks awsome similar to spartan laser but from the shown gameplay to me i think its like a over powered shotgun oneshotting people with it very good weapon id use it alot just like id use the scatter shot and energy sword
These new weapons are literally drying out my patient i feel like ive been patient long enough and it just keeps getting better
