You don't go deer hunting with a Tec-9, so who is going to be aiming down the iron sights and firing it like a semi-auto anyways?
It's harder to notice or appreciate these features on CQB & spray-n-pray weapons such as the shotgun, mauler, etc but they clearly do have iron sites built into the model. The BR is a bullpup design, and the elongated iron sight rail doubling as an optical scope mount is very typical of those types of weapons such as the FAMAS or the Steyr Aug. It is very similar in design to the H&K MP7 PDW, which has an optical site and all sorts of contemporary features. The SMGs in HL2 even have a laser crosshair in the optical site that you never get to use, how's that for ridiculous design? Even better, whoever designed the reload animation apparently considered removing the old magazine to be a pointless step, so Gordon just slaps the bottom of the grip with his hand and -poof- reloaded!įor the most part UNSC weapons in Halo do have appropriate sights based on their real world counterparts, if you look at a closeup of the SMG from Halo 3 it clearly has iron sights on the top located at the front and rear ends of the housing. Which is highly ironic considering they couldn't aim for **** in Halo 1, and they had HUD sighting, but anyways. Now, because Marines have not had HUD sighting since Halo 1, which means that they are firing without looking down the barrel of their guns. I give a slight exception to the Battle Rifle and the Sniper Rifle, because they both have scopes, however, I have noticed that the SMG, the Halo 2 pistol, the Mauler(slightly), the Shotgun, the Spiker (slightly) and the Machine gun turret has a sort of aiming function. The fact is, while the SPARTANS have reticles which allows them to aim accurately, the assault rifle lacks a scope or iron sight, and the UNSC marines fire the weapons accurately, despite the fact they are shooting from the hip. For anyone who doesn't know, iron sights are the small sights atop, or in the case of an aperture sight, in the back, of a weapon that allow you to aim. This thread is about the fact that 90% of the weapons in Halo 3 do not have iron sights. Please, unless you give a ****, keep reading. It's not immersing, it's not funny, it's just the product of my bored mind.
Look, I'm bored, it's raining, I'm hungry, and I decided to write this.
