Anyone else notice that the new Warthogs machine gun has FIVE barrels! Personally think the bore looks larger (maybe 20mm), though it may just be an optical illusion because the whole barrel is thicker. And thicker barrels ''should'' mean it takes longer to overheat and less time to cool down. First image is for comparison.

:Oh cool, more like a Minigun now. I had seen the gun was different briefly, but didn't pause to look and thought it just had one barrel now, which would have been rather disappointing. Hopefully this means a higher Minigun-like rate of fire. On a totally different topic (not worth a new one), though still weapon related, I like that the MA5D is now fully ambidextrous-capable; the charging handle and ejection port cover can be swapped to the other side.

:Heh, maybe it's a response to the overheating issues tribarrels had in Reach and Halo 4? :P
:Regardless, I actually really like the look. I hope it comes with a corresponding boost in rate of fire, or actually lowers the rate at which it heats to fire longer. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 20:11, 18 June 2015 (EDT)
