I was talking mainly about human weapon designs. All of the human weapons they've made to date adhere to today's military standards, but with some polish and futurizing.

The SMG recoil makes sense in Halo 2. Bungie added in camera-based recoil to weapons, and that high-ROF bullet hose only rode up when you laid on the trigger.

I can slap a laser aiming module onto an HK USP/Colt M4/HK MP5/etc, and they have iron sights. LAMs are for aim assists and for the "cool factor" of being able to shoot from the hip accurately. :P

Look, all I'm saying is that the scope looks absolutely tacky and cumbersome no matter how you look at it. A red dot sight or laser aiming module would make much more sense and look better.

I say even if it is boring, its the most attractive and the most efficient.

Dont ugly something up just because its "boring."

Yaknowat i mean?

E: Ugh, you guys are thinking about a laser pointer as an actual option?

PLEASE DONT DO THAT.

That would be stupid.

Ok, whoever's thinking we're talking about a laser pointer is just..... not that smart. We're talking about a red-dot scope/sight. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_dot_sight for more information.

guess its a good thing halo doesnt support a flag saying "panic when lasered" :haw:. however, if youre using a projectile for the "laser" i'm sure you can work some kind of AI magic to where after its been on the AI for so long, it will cause the AI to notice it (maybe some form of non-harmful super-detenation?)

No, you misunderstand. Your thinking they are talking about a pointer. They mean a red dot sight. Its different. I am too tired to google up some pictures so here. http://google.com/

Bungie seems to agree with Heathen.

(That little thing on the top of the SMG is a Red Dot Laser Sight, just more compact then CMT's version because of 500 years of advancement)

Mhm. Damn right they do.

Its just a red dot projected onto the center of a piece of transparent material.

I know...

I've always wanted to go on EBay and buy like a 30 dollar red dot site for my pellet gun (lmao)

Could you imagine going to EBay, and finding a red dot that someone used to kill like, 30 Iraqis with, and getting it in the mail and seeing the words "GOD FORGIVE ME" carved into the side?

THAT WOULD BE FUCKING HARDCORE

Airsoft bb gun?

Yah, they're 30 quid on UK sites too :)

Well, unless for some reason you're having transactions from night to day during missions, for night missions the holographic red dot sight that is shown on the SMG and the CoD4 pictures can usually be turned green. Just a little detail that doesn't mean much, but is something that, that particular red dot sight can do.

Nah man, airmaster BB rifle.

40 pumps to break the skin :eng101:

So we discovered what was causinga major problem in the mod last night. For the past year or so, we're not exactly sure when, we started using an older than current version of HEK+, and there has been data loss and corruption in most of the scenario tags. The most recent HEK+ rips with significantly less corruption, but there is still some minor things that go wrong. This has been causing multiple problems with the original encounters for a long time, and caused some of the biggest bugs in the mod.

We found out that the older predecessor of HEK+, HTC is able to rip the scenarios with no data loss, although there are multiple other things wrong with it that can stop maps from compiling. We plan on releasing HTC sometime soon, for other people who need to inspect the encounters as Bungie made them, since HEK+ seems to be not completely reliable.

So rejoice, another major bug's solution has been found.

Cool beans.

E: Yes, I recall ripping CodeBrain's phantom from a map he sent me because I was missing some tags, and I ended up corrupting about 50 different tags, including my globals which fucked up everything. This will be nice.
