[OOC Board] Eternal Galaxy: Shards of Starlight - Part I

@Cucoo

Ah.

Also the stuff I mailed you on Elsword were parts of the upgraded Black Crow gear. Soon I'll be able to send you the upgraded Black Crow drones for Eve. Once I do you will have access to a full set of Black Crow Gear (which always lasts me until halfway through Feita.) Though you won't be able to access the pieces until you are lvls 30-34... which might take you a long time... but at least they will be there.

Goodmorning everyone.




@Cucoo

I didn't see them on your map. That's what I was paying the most attention on.:(

Ok, I'll just have to do what John does and improvise.


How many gunships are there? What are their positions? What is there altitude? What formation are they using?

@S121

Hello. How are you this... afternoon? (it's 1 in the afternoon for me.)

@SUSTIC

It's 11:02 for me.

I'm doing good. I just figured out a way for John to destroy the Gunships. If worst comes to worst, I figure John can easily use his M6D Magnum Pistol. That pistol is notorious for destroying tanks.

If all else fails, he's going to shoot them out of the sky like Banshee fighters. It's either that, or he hijacks one and uses it against the enemy.

@S121

Ya know... if John could... he could probably destroy entire fleets with a single magnum... (jk)

@SUSTIC

And a LOT of ammo. :p

All I know is that his M6D Magnum Pistol is very nasty, especially since his is a variant that has been upscaled by 117% (yes, Bungie likes their number Easter eggs. :p).

It was designed for the use of Spartans, and anyone else that tries to use it would find the weight and recoil to be way too much to handle, especially the recoil. I would dare say that it's one of the best weapons in the Halo franchise. It can destroy a Spartan's shielding in 3 shots and kill them in the fourth, so you just know that it's a serious weapon. :p

Not only that, it also has a 2x zoom function, making it effective at longer ranges as well.

@S121

Or with John's luck he might get incredibly lucky and break every sense of logic and takes out an entire fleet with a single bullet.

How would you explain that?

Random Soldier: "Uh sir... our fleet in the 2nd quadrant of the [insert random star system here] had been taken out singlehandedly..."

Random Captain: "What!? What did this man have? Some sort of super weapon?"

Random Soldier: "No sir... all he had was a single magnum..."

Random Captain: "... Did he have a lot of ammo?"

Random Soldier: "No sir. All he did was use a single bullet... He killed every captain of the fleet... every single soldier in ever single ship... with a single bullet... I don't even know how to f*cking explain it! He just killed EVERYONE in the fleet with a single. f*cking. BULLET!!!"

Random Captain: "I think we already lost this war... send a message that we surrender..."

Random Soldier: "Yes sir..." *Suddenly a single bullet flies through the base, and kills everyone in the base.*


Now that would be funny, impossible in all senses of logic, but funny.

Goes to show that John might be, no is most definitely... the video game Chuck Norris...

Also I remember how useful the Magnum was in the first Halo. It was powerful, had good range, and was reliable. The only one problem I found was running out of ammo quite quickly due to how much I used it. As such I relied on the Assault Rifle for most instances, and used the magnum against elites and such.

@SUSTIC

Who knows? Maybe John has enough luck to pull that off. XD

But yea, the Magnum in the first Halo was THE weapon to grab, especially if you had a plasma pistol handy.

One charged shot for the shields, and one Magnum shot to kill the enemy.

Speaking of Chuck Norris...

@S121

LOL

Also yea it was. The Plasma Pistol and magnum was a very deadly combo in the first Halo. In Halo 2 I think they nerf'd it didn't they? Had a faster rate of fire, but weaker right, but you could dual wield it with some other weapons making for some useful combos.

I also didn't really care for it in Halo 3 for some reason, despite it being closer to how it was in the first Halo. I liked it more in Halo: Reach (one of my favorite games in the franchise aside from 3), because you could fire the magnum while aiming. It was also cool in Halo 4.

That makes me want to play Halo 3 again for the campaign (I loved the campaign in Halo 3. Easily one of the best campaigns in the franchise.) As well as Halo: Reach which in my opinion, had the best multiplayer.

@SUSTIC

Actually, the magnums you use in the other Halo games are not the M6D Magnum pistol. The one in Halo 2 is an M6C, while the one in Halo: Reach and Halo 3 is an M6G variant.

The M6D only appeared in the first Halo (Combat Evolved and Anniversary) and Spartan Assault, and yes, the M6D is still very powerful in Spartan Assault, killing most enemies in 1 - 3 shots.


I loved the campaign for Halo. I don't know what I liked more, the fighting, or the music.
