Well they DID nerf it quite a bit. Although it still looked like it owned in the video.

I swear the only reason that weapon wasn’t in multiplayer was because it’s so damn cheap.

Think of it as a 10 shot rocket launcher…

Yeah, that’s definitely the fuel rod cannon. It was in Halo 2, like Justin said, but only in campaign. It should be interesting to see how it works in multiplayer, come September.

Ah, the fuel rod cannon. That would explain the unusual looking ammo he was reloading with. Like I said, I’m no Halo expert.

Nemo1986, yes, you’re right. According the the Halopedia: “In addition, it has been weakened to 65% of it’s previous strength, to compensate for the large clip size and a faster rate of fire.”

I somehow completely missed this gun in halo 2 *scratches head* Was it only in campaign, or am I just that inept?

No no, I know the plasma pistol This is a new gun. Watch at the one minute left mark. It’s an over the shoulder weapon like the Spartan Laser.

the green blobs look like a weaker version of a feul rod cannon.

Green blobs sounds like the plasma pistol/rifle, but I’m no Halo expert.
