WOW ok you guys misinterpret each other,

FANCY= bungie's halo 1 pistol animations(aka retarded)
PRACTICAL= CMT/Zteam's shotgun animation, (badass smack in teh face)
IMPRACTICAL= CMT spv1 smg, plasma pistol, plasma rifle. and heres WHY


smg: you quickly lower the weapon. sure, its effective if your enemy is suckin your cock, but not if theyre attacking you from the front.

plasma rifle: same as above

plasma pistol: looked cool, but it was a SLOW punch. and a badly aimed punch at that.



NOTE: im not trying to offend the animator. the animations were good, but not realistic, and have since then MUCH improved.
