Jay_Magnus Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 How to be a boss with the SAW: 1) Aim at target 2) Hold down trigger Honestly, I know it's a power weapon and it looks cool, but I think they went a little overboard with it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorB77 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 It is a new type of power weapon that we are not used to yet. It is in my opinion a great new addition to the game. I had my doubts at first but 343i has really made it into a respectable weapon. Just don't go to close to anyone who has one, especially if they have a damage boost like they did in the footage.

Donut Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 What an OP weapon. It's over powered enough, with that Damage Boost you'll be Indestructible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 What an OP weapon. It's over powered enough, with that Damage Boost you'll be Indestructible! Don't forget every LMG's weakness... Reloading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
&c. Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 It will be a close quarters thing, I don't think people will have much trouble with it on more open maps where anyone using it will just get shot in the head. It looks cool, but there really is no point talking balance just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mACca431 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 So boss but really if not used right you will get killed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartan5511 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 I'm just happy they put a light machine gun in Halo. To get that kind of firepower you'd have to rip off and lug a turret around in the other games. I mean, we have SAWs today, it's about time Halo put one in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-1609 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 What an OP weapon. It's over powered enough, with that Damage Boost you'll be Indestructible! From my point of view THE SAW is an awesome weapon, but looks like one of the weapons that if you miss just one shot, your kill gets away. Of course we will need to play the game and shoot our ways through Covies, Prometheans and MP to meet a final veredict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn Wolf Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 As it stands, it's extremely powerful in general. Every bit as valuable as other power weapons. It kills VERY fast, at least half the time of an AR kill. It's range really isn't that bad, and it reloads fast, and comes with lots of ammo. Furthermore, it has a definite intimidation factor. It's hard to aim well while being hit with the SAW, and you literally will be dead in a second. Beating one with a basic rifle close up is very challenging. It's weakness is actually that it's still not an AOE weapon, and not a 1 shot kill. This means that versus one enemy, it destroys hard. Against two, it can lose easily. Also, it's a pretty big responsibility. It has a lot of ammo, so if you die with it, the enemy will likely put it to good use against you.

Victory Element Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 i dont think the SAW is very OP. i have used it multiple times and i dont find it to be very effective. I have also killed players who have that weapon in CQC with a BR. I guess i need to learn how to use it better...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very nice at close quarters. I was in a tunnel on ragnorak and mower down 5 guys. I did not think I would like it originally, but now I get excited when I see it in ordenance.
