| ==Differences with the Splinter grenade==
| |
| Due to the difference in name, appearance, and functionality, I have concluded that the Splinter grenade IS actually a separate weapon entirely. Check out the [[Splinter grenade]] page and the trivia section of the [[Pulse grenade]] for more details. --[[User:Crisperstorm|Crisperstorm]] ([[User talk:Crisperstorm|talk]]) 17:31, 27 September 2015 (EDT)

| This article claims that Pulse Grenades disables vehicles, however, I have tested this and found it to be untrue. It might be worth looking into by other contributors. | | This article claims that Pulse Grenades disables vehicles, however, I have tested this and found it to be untrue.

| ::Err I'm not sure if it quite works that way since the source for the fact is a Bulletin mostly describing the gameplay. I always end up forgetting if little things about these weapons or abilities were removed before the game's release or after during a title update.[[User:Sith Venator|<span style="color:green">Sith-venator Wavingstrider</span>]] [[File:Fett helmet.jpg|20px]] ([[User talk:Sith Venator|<span style="color:blue">Commlink</span>]]) 23:56, 12 May 2013 (EDT)

| ==Splinter Grenade?==
| |
| Been noticing Ready Up Live and various people on the Waypoint Forums saying the grenade is now called the "Splinter Grenade" in Halo 5, but I can't find any official source or video where it specifically calls it that. I assume people are just confusing it with the new Splinter Turret?--[[User:Crisperstorm|Crisperstorm]] ([[User talk:Crisperstorm|talk]]) 23:10, 26 September 2015 (EDT)

| :I haven't seen or heard anything official but the "splinter grenade" name has popped up a few times on the Archive and Waypoint. Gameplay-wise it has nothing in common with the ''Halo 4'' version apart from its appearance and disintegration properties, though we know from ''Halo 4'''s ending that the Z-040 has multiple detonation modes. I'll see if I can dig anything up. --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our answer is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 23:15, 26 September 2015 (EDT)

| ::The different detonation modes would make sense but I have to say my biggest irk with the Halo 5 forerunner weapons is the big changes in firing mechanics but they all look exactly the same. x_x --[[User:Crisperstorm|Crisperstorm]] ([[User talk:Crisperstorm|talk]]) 23:29, 26 September 2015 (EDT)

| ::: I think that's a testament to forerunner adaptability and changability of weaponry, but I hope we know if it's the same Z-040 except simply splinter grenade functionality in halo 5. [[User:Erickyboo|Erickyboo]] ([[User talk:Erickyboo|talk]]) 23:41, 26 September 2015 (EDT)

| The flavor text for the Boltshot REQ card says the Prometheans have modified their weapons since the events of ''Halo 4''. This seems to be the case with the pulse/splinter grenade. --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our answer is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 15:45, 27 September 2015 (EDT)

| :::Splinter grenade seems a lot more useful. Also Splinter turret is cool and the Suppressor/Boltshot can track targets now. [[User:SamGall|Snark without a bark]] ([[User talk:SamGall|talk]]) 17:58, 27 September 2015 (EDT)

| ::::I like the new balanced designs, but they are less powerful then in Halo 4, such as the boltshot lost its shotgun ability, incineration cannon lost its multiple explosion splash effect. But they do have a lot of improvements, was just joking around about the changes in some weapons :P --[[User:Crisperstorm|Crisperstorm]] ([[User talk:Crisperstorm|talk]]) 18:50, 27 September 2015 (EDT)
