IC... Why?

What need was there to add this retarded weapon into the game? We already have so many tools against vehicles and tons of power weapons that are good against players on foot. What niche does a weapon thats strictly better than the rocketlauncher fill? Was some developer so bad he couldn't hit with the rockets?

The IC has some big flaws compared to the RL. One it only has one round per mag, two the blast radius isn't as big, and three the reload speed is longer. Sure the IC has one thing over the RL which is after the initial blast it spawns 4 smaller blasts afterwards but, one isn't better then the other. What about the FR gun? It can kill people in one shot and it has 5 rounds per mag.

Because it would look odd if the Prometheans were running around with Fuel Rod Guns or Rocket Launchers, weapons which hadn't been developed until 100,000 years after they'd been created.

 

It would also look weird. Like Brutes with Shotguns.

*Plays Uprising on Halo 2. XD* Looks fine. :D

Yeah we do have lots of tools against vehicles, but they also spawn much more frequently. I love the way that 343 did BTB in this game because if you want to play on foot you can, but if you are the kind of person who just wants to get in vehicles, you can pretty much do that the entire game. It's more vehicle-focused than other Halo's.

Are you smoking crack? Or maybe you confused this game with another.. Becuase vehicles are definitely less important in this game than any other. The focus is much more on footsoldiers, vehicles are nice little distractions for a few seconds until everyone stickies or pp's it.

Doesn't matter if the blast range is shorter, the kill range is much larger. You can get kills without having to actually hit anywhere near the person. Unlike the RL in which you need to at least hit somewhere near him.

So, 2 medium death explosions =/= 1 large death explosion =/= 5 mini death explosion ?

 

They're balanced. It's fine. Pick one of the actual problems to complain about.

 

Stop spewing nonsense. The IC is almost strictly better than the RL. The initial explosion of the IC is the same as the RL plus is has the extra secondary explosions. The entire point of the gun was to design for idiots who think the RL is too hard to hit with.
