They changed the text. It says "UNSC Sidearm" now, whereas in the beta it said "Misriah Armory."

don't forget covie weapon's such as the Mauler. duel weldable not as powerful as the UNSC shotty but at close range while duel wielding it can do major damage.

...What?
We're talking about the new UNSC weapon update. Those posts were back in May, the Mauler wasn't announced yet...

I wonder how shells it holds

Considering the Maulers name, I hope it has a significantly higher melee damage, along with a smaller clip to ballance it out.

I also hope that bungie does something so the bigger the weapon, the more melee damage, and maybe the higher the melee delay. (ex: If you were hit with a Spartan Lazer it would hurt alot more than a smg, but a Spartan Lazer would take longer to melee someone with cause it's way heavier.)

You said "don't forget," directly implying it had been forgotten.

Because that's the new news... Why would I randomly throw in a mention of the Mauler when I'm posting an update about the UNSC weapons? That doesn't make any sense.

Yes...the topic's already been bumped, discussion is fine. If you ever want to bump a topic, just make sure you're posting relevant information...and if you're not sure, PM a staff member to make sure it's good enough to warrant a bump.

Does equipment count as weapons?

{TP}Spartan · Post by **{TP}Spartan** » Wed Aug 15, 2007 5:57 pm

I guess if it does damage then yes

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Wed Aug 15, 2007 5:59 pm

Equipment discussion can go in this thread.

It shows five there, but I'm almost certain it hold 8, because the images of the front appear to have 8 shells.

8/16: Podcast
Brian (I believe, wasn't paying full attention) states Mauler shot then melee combo is an instant kill.
