Talk:M'tara-pattern focus rifle

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

I bet this will make sniper enemies a lot less annoying to fight in campaign...no more one shot kills from the horizon. Maybe this will make them less shy about putting in Sniper Jackals (as opposed to Carbine Jackals) Flayer92 04:12, May 3, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, but I would be more annoyed by having a constant beam following me and sapping my shields in a less effective yet annoying fashion. Although it would be less annoying than a Beam Rifle on legendary.--FluffyEmoPenguin 20:16, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

"Alligator Gun"?[edit]

I've heard of it being called a "Gator Ray" by quite a few people and even by a Bungie employee on the forums, but I haven't heard of it being called an "Alligator Gun". It seems a lot less imaginative and doesn't flow off the tongue as well as "Gator Ray". But either way, it's pointless information unless it really starts to pick up with the community.--FluffyEmoPenguin 18:09, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Campaign?[edit]

Is this ever gonna be in Campaign?

You bet your MJOLNIR Mark V butt it is!!!Vegerot 00:40, September 3, 2010 (UTC)!

Sentinel Beam versus Focus Rifle[edit]

The Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition) nicknames the Sentinel Beam as "the Phaser", and also "Ray Gun" and less appropriately, "Laser Gun", because of the way its firing beam looks, which I do agree, it certainly does remind me of phaser beam, but it reminds more of the hand phaser. The Focus Rifle, on the other hand, is similar in most respects, but it reminds me more of a compression phaser rifle. Anyone want to address this, maybe in the Trivia section of both articles?
