Same here. I have seen players that really are that good. But just 3
shots? I think if your shields are a little low, yes. But it takes 4
headshots in a row from the pistol to drop you if your shields and
health are both 100%. Two sniper rifle rounds to the head. However,
if your S & H are full and you pick up an overshield, you'll survive a
Scorpion canon round
For a year my son trained new clan members for team competition. Every
now and then I'd drop in on their server to see what kind of mischief I
could stir up. I'm hell with a Hog and love playing a modded
Bloodgulch map. Matter of fact, it was the first stable mod for Halo PC
I know of. "Gunner Drives Hog (and shoots at the same time)" mod. But
everyone playing on a server running that modded map needs to have the
same one. Else, cries of "CHEATER!" come up all over
Some call
that a cheat, but it's really just a simple map mod.
For my son and the people he trained, they ALL prefer the pistol to any
other weapon in Halo. It has a little zoom plus the rate of fire is
fast, it carries plenty of ammo and its accuracy is as perfect as the
sniper rifles. You can get 4 rounds into an enemy faster than you can
fire one round and chamber another with the sniper rifle. The pistol is
a lot smaller, much easier to run n shoot. But practice for accuracy
is a must.
