Explain how the Fallen weapons function. They've got directed energy weapons ALL WRONG. The magnetic containment field along the barrel is...... Its thousands of years in the future. There are space pirates and artificial intelligence. I'm pretty sure that your laws of nature no longer apply.

  • The fact that Halo contained plasma weapons had no bearing on whether or not the human weapons were realistically designed. You can't excuse illogical design just because the medium contains examples of even more illogical things. Especially when the design in question is directly based on a real-world counterpart.

  • It does, actually. You're trying to understand something that you've never seen or experienced before. You're taking a preexisting design and assuming its the same. It is obviously not. The wheel gun of yesterday fired actual ammunition. If this were anything like a normal revolver, you could open the wheel and replace expended ammunition. Instead, you replace the whole wheel. The Destiny Hand Cannon does not have ammunition, instead firing some sort of energy projection...it appears anyway.

  • I HAVE seen or experienced it before because it's DIRECTLY based on existing designs. I can't claim that Ice Breaker or the Vex Mythoclast are mechanically inaccurate because there is no real-world counterpart for these things. Changing the ammo used in a weapon doesn't change the mechanics of it when the mechanics are obviously directly based on an existing design. The weapon is meant to function the same as a modern revolver, so it should be comparable to a modern reolver, regardless of what it shoots.

  • Good one. Really puts a spotlight on your argument. You've given me much to think about. You might even change my opinion. All with just 3 words. Truly a master debater, you.
