unzoomable pistol in Halo 2

topic posted Tue, November 9, 2004 - 1:09 PM by  Dave Q
I won't be able to play for another 4.5 hrs or so, and I simply can't wait to find out:

By taking away the ability to zoom in, did they totally cut the balls off this, my favorite weapon? I'm stoked to try dual-wielding, the energy sword, TRACKING rockets, improved Needler, etc, but not sure I like losing this feature...

thoughts?

    Well, it didn't make any sense for the pistol to zoom in. Why would it zoom? It didn't have a scope on it, so I think they were right to take it out. It's like having a zoom on a stick, doesn't need it. It's supposed to be a close range weapon anyhow.

    I love the game! The pistol is totally new now, and works well when dual-wielding with something else, preferably the SMG. You'll totally love it.

      Well, if you're looking for nonsensical things, where does the Master Chief put his rocket launcher when he's not carrying it? I'm not worried about such trivial details, I just want something I can pull off midrange headshots with that's a little more responsive than the sniper rifle.

      It looks like Battle Rifle is it. So. I'll. Use. That.
