User blog comment:MilitaryBrat/Master Chief vs Xenomorphs/@comment-4749025-20120204030950

1. Unless the OP states which Xenomorphs are being used I'll be using the Xenomorphs from the comics since all that I posted would be a waste of information if and useless to the debate :P

2. The M41A Pulse rifle from Aliens fires a 10x24mm caseless cartridge The round is designed to inflict serious damage, boasting a steel-jacketed, high explosive armor piercing tip. Whereas the MA5C fires 7.62x51mm NATO. Yeah they still make use of rounds from the 20 century so the “Is better because it’s from the future” argument falls on it’s ass because we use the same thing today. Canonically pulse rifles aren’t that great against anything higher than a drone as the higher echelons have tougher exoskeletons and the bullets that do penetrate don’t get very far due to the aliens acidic blood, so if pulse rifles have a hard time getting through the hide of a warrior

Halo weaponry use 20th century bullets >_> the weapons we use today are capable of killing elites and brutes, the colonial marines have better high tech weaponry than the UNSC (I'M GOING BY NOVEL FEATS) it still takes the marines more effort to kill a xenomorph despite how advance their assault rifle is and your telling me that regular 20th century bullets can pierce it's exo skeleton when the Pulse Rifle has a difficult time doing so?

3. I never said that the shields DEACTIVATE I said it allows liquids to pass through, example in halo 3 cut scenes master chiefs shields are activated while he's standing in a puddle of water.

4. ALL PREDATOR METAL MELTS where did you get this info that predator weapons don't melt? they do melt! it's just very resistant since their designed against xenomorphs, and the reason their hides don't melt is because supposedly their acid only reacts with oxygen.
