it's a vida game

The fact that the weapons weren't present in halo 1 does not mean they didn't exist. It only meant they weren't aboard the pillar of autumn. besides, bungie isn't going to make the mistake of going back to halo 1's weapon set.

Wasn't the PoA one of the smaller vessels roaming in the UNSC shipyards?

That's the thing isn't it. With all the complaints about weapon balance, Halo 1 was their most successful game hence why they keep trying to add in Halo 1 elements to Halo 3 ect after complaints about Halo 2. The only reason nobody talks about it much anymore was it's sad lack of Live support...

I think people just want to call the original the best because...well, it's the original. Think about this: Halo 1 had drastically different environments (mostly in terms of definition), less amounts of enemies around you, and less types of enemies. It's weapon set was great for the game they had going. Newer games marked newer environments and dynamics such as the AI characters.

In terms of tonnage, yes. The Pillar of Autumn was one of the oldest and smallest cruisers serving in the Fleet.

Actually wasn't it just small in size but extremely heavy due to the honeycomb structure? I thought I read in Fall of Reach that the PoA was smaller than a Marathon Cruiser but 3 times the tonnage. Then again, I'm probably mistaken.

You are. The pillar of autumn is 1/3 the tonnage of a Marathon Class Cruiser.

At 1.17 (a reference to the number 117) kilometers in length and one-third the tonnage of the succeeding Marathon-class Cruiser, the Halcyons were the smallest of vessels to be designated and structured as cruisers.

I dont think Bungie would change the way the game feels.

this is the dumbest comment in the thread.
