Re: Halo 3: Post your likes & dislikes of multiplayer

The sword sucks in Halo 3. I have probably killed more people who had the sword so far than I did the entire time in Halo 2. Its ridiculously easy actually since the AR is a strong enough weapon.
The gravity hammer is also fairly useless IMO. Shotty is only real sexy in shotty/sniper. Basically any weapon that you have to be close, isn't that great, because its so easy to take peoples shields down, especially if you use teamwork.
One weapon that I am picking up everything I see it is the needler. The brute shot is also a must. Both of these demolish people, and for some reason people rarely pick them up. BR is cool too.

Yup, sword blows. In Halo 2 I practically [censored] myself when a sword guy was coming at me because I was pretty screwed. Now I win at least half my one on one battles against guys with swords. Actually, it would be sweet if the stats showed what weapons your kills were weilding when you killed them so I can check out my success vs. swords.
I love how people pass up the needler. I think too many people think A) it sucked in H2 and B) you can't dual wield anymore, so it must really suck. One needler is now better than the dual wield on H2.

I still wish the pistol was back to its Halo 1 form. I loved using the pistol on Halo 1.

Halo 1 pistol was possibly the best Halo weapon ever. Sort of a mini sniper-rifle with that scope. I owned with a shotgun/pistol combo.
Overall, I'm glad they fixed multiplayer up in this one. I was pretty good at Halo 1, then blew at Halo 2. I'd get owned by snipers & swords and just get annoyed overall. Now I fell like the weapons are more balanced then ever before.
