First Impressions: Halo PC

[WarLocke]

Sniping hunters in the back from strange angles.

Idunno if you already know this, but a little note: There's a relatively large area of the Hunter's back that's orange instead of the grey-blue of the rest of their skin. Shooting them there is an instant kill; it may take a burst from an AR due to its' innacuracy to hit the right spot, but ping it with a pistol or sniper rifle and the Hunter goes down.

As for general Halo coolness, I have to agree. I must be fairly conservative, though, because I seem to play through 'normally' - I've never tried commandeering those Banshees on the bridge, I just shot them down. Although, knocking an Elite off that bridge with a melee attack was dayum satisfying! Darn Elites, I hate them. <_<

I particularly like dropping a grenade right by the guys with the arm-mounted shields and then keeping them in place with suppression fire. Apparently blocking assault rifle rounds is a higher priority than getting the heck away from a fragmentation grenade, heh.

Oh yeah, doing a powerslide around a corner while driving a Warthog and running over 3 or 4 Covenant is also fun. :D

Have you run into the Flood yet? I really suggest you tote an AR and/or shotgun for those areas. :o
