Why werent higher ranking Promethean Knights

equipped with projectable constraint fields like the Didact? They were meant to be the unstoppable army after all…

The only unstoppable force is the hero of a franchise, all else gets destroyed, rather easily. Why else are Promethean Knights being killed by 20th century ammunition when they have technology to give Sentinels starship shielding and weaponry (see Onyx Sentinel).

Well, dunno lol, but Im sure that the weapons in Halo are much more powerful than today.

They’re not really. MA5B/C/D uses the same 7.62x51mm NATO rounds as we have been using since the 1900’s, except for some stupid as hell reason, this uber advanced rifle from the future is less accurate at range than an AK-47, despite having a longer barrel. Yeah, that bad -_-

The only hand held weapons the UNSC have that would be considered special today are Spartan Laser, Railgun, Battle Rifle (sorta), and probably the Hard Sound rifle(i love bees was it?).

Part of the problem with constraint fields is how do you make them fun to fight. Being hit seems to be instant-death if the guy can hurl you off the edge and not spew random evil lines.

It does not use the same ammunition, as todays weapons… todays weapons are much less effective and are generally not Armor Piercing Shredder rounds, and the Assault Rifle is much more accurate than it appears in Gameplay, because it is Gameplay mind you, has to be balanced. You really do not seem to know much about how these weapons work or what they are equipped with.

The Promethean Knights are not equipped with Constraint Fields currently simply because there armor is not as advanced as what the Didact and other high level Forerunners may wear. They were meant to bring Brute Force, Tactics, Teamwork, to the table, and be able to resist infection and damage from the Flood, while being equipped with weapons capable of destroying biomass and organic tissue easily, so the Flood would have no food source or vessels to gather strength from.

They are not invincible though, and are weaker against projectile weapons than they are brute force I imagine.

Actually beyond them being FMJ, the AR rounds are what we use today.

Armor piercing is more common cause heavily armored enemies are more common. If the prometheans attacked earth today, we could could field weapons with negligible different.

The AR’s officially stated range is also shorter than today’s rifles, and still longer than its range in actual gameplay.

Ahahahahaha! I thought the fan -Yoink!- would show up. We’ve already been over this many times, yet you still play ignorant, so shut up, sit down, and take some notes, you just might learn something.

> todays weapons are much less effective

Because todays weapons have far more range then UNSC weapons, oh how ineffective!

> generally not Armor Piercing Shredder rounds

You really made yourself look foolish now, armor piercing and shredder rounds are two separate rounds. Besides, armor piercing rounds aren’t new, and shredder rounds are kinda similar to modern hollow point rounds.

> Assault Rifle is much more accurate than it appears in Gameplay, because it is Gameplay mind you, has to be balanced.

No -Yoink-, don’t forget to have fun at under 300 meters.

And here comes the hypocrisy. Its funny because I have all the novels and majority of the comics. Its funnier still since it’s you who knows jack -Yoink- about guns and is in this delusional fanboy state of mind about Halo weapons. The stats don’t lie. But if you keep using the same accusations you’ve used before (and now) against me, that “I don’t know anything about how weapons work because you totally do trololol” maybe… just maybe it’ll work :o

NOT xD
