It seems like 1 or 2 more clips would be great. I am constantly running out and there does not seem to be many pistols on the maps. It really becomes annoying having to switch to the AR on maps like headlong.
As powerful as it is why would there be an abundance of ammo for it on map?

Because there should be at least 2-4 pistol spawns on each map or an increase in the clip size. The ammo runs out fast.
Nothing else can defend against the Pistol(unless a PW). So if you run out of ammo you are a free kill.

Because the gun never felt short for ammo in the original Combat Evolved multiplayer. It was always plentiful.

And every other weapon was rather powerful as well sot it balanced out more. In the Reach sandbox it’s a power weapon.

I haven’t got my copy yet, so what’s the weapon diversity like on the maps? I may not be getting the picture.

There are not any pistols on the maps, or at least I cannot find any. You only get 3 clips, and on maps like headlong and hang em high you run out of ammo fast and are pretty much dead unless you can find a body, and they themselves usually have little to no ammo left.

yeah… quite annoying.

Play the bigger maps and you will see issues…

How many times were you and me complaining about that yesterday? Maybe it was also because we were not dying and kids were getting destroyed, but we looked everywhere and there are not pistols on the maps.
If this is really supposed to be a halo 1 remake, the magnum should have the identical sized clip and ammo! Halo 1 was solely based on competition with the pistol. . Its ridiculous to run out of ammo with the weapon that made halo combat evolved what it was, with a strong tournament base and all. Players should never have to run around a full sized map with an assault rifle!

Exactly! Thank you for getting this.
Reach kids cannot rap their mind around it.

Beaver creek was just sad when I got the Killing Frenzy in the 50 to 8 match.
Only did bad on that sniper match… I really dont know headlong too well, its good though.
Yeah, its most noticeable on Hang em high though. It plays terribly. it would be a lot better if the pistol did not have random spread…
They talked about this before the game came out.
I can’t remember if it was at Halo fest or some other thing like that. They said that they are not able to add more rounds to the clip. It was something that they wanted to do but were unable.

I know about that. I was talking about having extra clips/ ammo to start with or placing a few pistols on the map for ammo.
Only really an issue on Hang em High. Otherwise, stop camping and go loot ammo off dead bodies.
No there is a crap load of ammo on the map.

Where?
Ok, if this thread is still alive then, I will post a better opinion on the matter. I feel though, that with reach’-Yoink!--scan, auto-aim, and bullet magnetism, 8 rounds per mag with three spare should be fine. But, if there really aren’t any on the map at all, then we have a problem. Just 2 or 3 with one mag would be fine.
Anyway, for future reference Clips and magazines are different
