Weapons....Sigh!

You Know, I can actually imagine this conversation happening in 343:

‘You know the way the rocket launcher has been fined tuned to an art form by hardcore halo players. Maybe we should nerf it by making its shot travel slower, and decreasing its effective range. We could also add an alternative that doesn’t suffer this handicap, and rewards inaccuracy. Say, if it completely misses an enemy player but hits a wall 5 metres behind them, it will get the Kill.’

‘Yeah, that’s great. Lets do something similar with the shotgun, and while we are at it, how about a sniper that doesn’t require a headshot!’.

On another note. Could some one tell me what the rail gun is for. I can’t work it out.

the rocket launcher still is a power weapon, i don’t think it is underpowered.
The incineration cannon, has a bigger area of a effect, however if they’re a little outside that, i does take them a little longer to die, leaving you exposed, and if they do survive that you have to go through the long process of reloading it, leaving you REALLY exposed, for power weapons, they’re still good.
and i rarely seen someone miss with the scattershot and get a kill with the rebound.
And the rail gun is a lightweight splazer, a little worse on vehicles but still very effective, and better than the splazer for killing infantry targets.
