| You can't balance muskets with AK-47s | |

In Response To: Re: One more thing: weapon shelves (Stephen L. (SoundEffect)) : Well, they are 100,000 years+ older than modern humans and they have direct : weapon analogues to pistols, shotguns, rocket launchers, sniper rifles, : etc. Doesn't sound advanced in the technological sense. Does sound : balanced in the multiplayer sense. Why must my campaign immersion be : littered with multiplayer baggage?? Even if you sever campaign from multiplayer you MUST nerf Forerunner weapons if you want to have any kind of balanced sandbox. If you don't, then the vast technological gulf would make every Forerunner weapon hands-down better than all Covenant and UNSC weapons; there'd be no reason to use anything else beyond scarcity, and Forerunners would be horrifically overpowered in the campaign. -- Steve's okay with the liberties taken with the weapons sets, because there aren't very many other ways to make them that would remain fun to play.
