A grapple hook. I think that would be cool and fun to use. What about you guys? Does that sound cool and fun?
Edit: To be like a weapon to cling on enemies and pull them towards you, so you can melee that kid in the face… Yeah.
mmm i’ll pass. I just can’t see it in the Halo universe, especially if this would be in matchmaking. I feel like equipment to assist players with map movement (i.e. the jetpack) end up to be map breaking.
What do you mean? Man-portable? What kind of launch system? In what context?
If it’s like the James Bond NightFire grappling hook, then maybe yes. Although, as said above, it may make map movement a bit too easy.
Definitely not as a spawn weapon. I could explain in painful detail why from my experiences in Murder Miners.
As an on-map weapon possibly, though we already have the jetpack.

I agree.
Still, it would be fun to yank some flying sucker right out of the air.
Grappling people and assassinating them would be so fun.
So would shooting an ‘arrow’ that would pierce a Spartan and continue flight until pinning them to a wall… followed by an explosion.

Whoa, haha…that’s funny; I never played Bioshock.
My vision, although now almost a ripoff, is a faster moving, straight line spear - like a more exciting sniper shot.
Blowing up would be so that the Spartan wasn’t stuck to the wall all game, and it gives a second use to the spear.
> I never played Bioshock.
You really should.
Perhaps some sort of Brute sniper equivalent?
Absolutely not. Not just it wouldn’t fit in the Halo Universe but it would affect the multiplayer gameplay in unimaginable aspects.
I don’t want to see a FPS League Of Legends.
Maybe if the Master Chief is a guest character in Mortal Kombat he can have one to deal with Scorpion lol, But in Halo, no, not in my opinion.
Nah, definitely not as an offensive weapon…does not fit Halo and is not a combat effective weapon…more of a show boating weapon. As a means of scaling a wall or into a window…possibly, but a jet pack would accomplish this more effectively and require less skill. A plus for it (over the jet pack) might be stealth.
I could see this being a fun weapon in flood (infection) game types . As a optional zombie weapon, but with out the explosive part. Has bad accuracy to stand an equal chance or the survivors only way of being pinned to the wall is it Sheila’s are down.

But, seriously, I don’t see how that could fit. Perhaps in a side story like another ODST game or something, but not in H5:G. Only way it would fit is if it was an item that you use a couple times in campaign (I.E. target designator).
