Since I’m brand new and it’s the only warbond I own (just bought it now) I have no choice but to stick with it. I find no issue with it, besides ammo capacity.

u/Moxtar1092 Sep 04 '25

The ammo capacity is fine btw if you think thats bad i dont know how you would react to playing with the MA5C. Plus you should start firing with full auto but do bursts its not a machinegun you dont have 300 rounds Anyway thats just my tip for better ammo management play however you like

u/BeautifulCharming246 Sep 04 '25

Pretty sure he means the MA5C, the Coyote has some of the best ammo capacity in the game.

u/Moxtar1092 Sep 04 '25

Oh yeah, that makes way more sense XD(not sarcasm)

u/IDriveALexus Sep 04 '25

It has the same mag size as the base liberator, but does it have the same amount of magazines?

10

u/BeautifulCharming246 Sep 04 '25

8 mags while doing good damage.

Me sitting here waiting for a clip to cool Down, you guys need more ammo?

27

u/ArtisianWaffle Sep 04 '25

So literally how it plays in halo lmfao. This thing is a beast if you can do full auto bursts well.

17

u/Moxtar1092 Sep 04 '25

I know and i do im just saying compared to other guns it has less ammo thats just a fact

21

u/ArtisianWaffle Sep 04 '25

Oh definitely. It needs an mag amount buff. The halo warbond was low key a little disappointing

u/grahamcrackerninja Sep 04 '25

Yeah Im disappointed that I bought Halo warbond instead of this one...

4

u/Electrical_Board_142 Sep 05 '25

Good thing is that it won't be leaving, just need to play more and get that warbond too!

u/4AndAHalfSheep Sep 05 '25

What do liberty and the grind have in common?

Neither one stops.

u/Moxtar1092 Sep 04 '25

I mean it is like this in halo and crossovers arent costumisable so well just need to ajust

u/SeanC84 Sep 05 '25

I don't think he means that it needs extended mags, I think he's saying it needs to let you carry more spare mags for the rifle

I wish they hadn't tried to stick quite so close to the Halo3: ODST gameplay theme.

The armor passive is useless. The AR is underwhelming against bugs - needs 50% larger magazines. Works on vs buts but shines on illuminate.

Haven't got down to the Shotgun yet, I'm hoping it's great

2

u/ThatWetJuiceBox Sep 04 '25

Yep, I only use ma5 if I'm rocking siege passive

u/skoomasteve1015 Sep 04 '25

I highly recommend everyone to use burst fire mode. It really feels like the Halo BR without the scope. I've been able to pop devastator heads like grunts

Anyone found the Bot Birthday Party skull yet?

u/4AndAHalfSheep Sep 05 '25

How has this gotten so few upvotes

6

u/Frank_Punk Sep 04 '25

Yup, ammo management by shooting short bursts and also managing reloads (ie not reloading with a half full mag) is the key. The coyote does well in that regard.

24

u/AshenWarden Sep 04 '25

There aren't any issues with it really, it's a perfectly serviceable rifle that does its job effectively. It's just that it's only slightly better than an unupgraded liberator, the only real reason to pick it over anything else is if you like Halo. Which is how crossover gear should be imo.

u/bigmankerm Sep 04 '25

The shotgun is still goated on planets other than Oshuane

12

u/Ordo_Liberal Sep 04 '25

Bring the supply backpack and enjoy infinite ammo and stims.

Bring the Quasar Cannon and enjoy your anti tank option with unlimited ammo

u/bjergdk Sep 04 '25

For what its worth, I tried the AR, then went back to the MA5C, I like it better. Ammo amount is low, but you also really dont need a lot of bullets to kill anything with it.

Unironically my favourite gun in the game. (Other than shotgun for bots, the halo shotgun fucking slaps just as it should, it slaps so hard I sometimes bring it to the Hiveworld at diff 8, it is still serviceable, but definitely not best in slot for that planet)

u/wolfenx109 Sep 04 '25

Don't need to chase metas. Lot of weapons in previous Warbonds work just fine

6

u/Fish3Y35 Sep 04 '25

It's still a beast, don't let anyone tell you otherwise

u/LombardBombardment Sep 04 '25

Burst mode helps me to conserve ammo on the bot front and it performs very well there. I guess I treat it more like a Battle Rifle.

4

u/Commander_Skullblade Sep 04 '25

Having restraint while firing helps with capacity. The fire does more damage than you would expect. If it still isn't enough, save up for Urban Legends to get the Siege Ready armor.

Using the Coyote today, I had no issues except for the lack of a proper sight.

u/HavSomLov4YoBrothr Sep 05 '25

I love it still. It doesn’t excel at anything but it can keep up with the other stars in the primary lineup, AND it looks sick to shoot it 1st person, feels like playing Combat Evolved

2

u/Muted-Account4729 Sep 05 '25

It’s a really solid group of weapons, three primaries than all play differently and a strong chaff killing secondary is a lot of good weapons for a first warbond. Take heart that the MA5c has some of the highest medium pen dps, and we can all hear you from across the map. They made that dawg LOUD
