I'm just gonna nerd the fuck out for a second here.

So if we're talking Halo 1 here, John's gonna be pretty fuckin' burly. He's already 6'10"/280lb without armour and 7'2"/990lb with and a ton of protection and life sustaining shit including a recharging shield.

The shotty in Halo fires an 8-gauge shell of 0000 buck (15 9.5mm pellets, just one or two of which kills a Grunt). Not really fair to compare it to DG's 00 8-gauge shotty.

That said, the guy's definitely not as fast as Doomguy from the games, it'd be about abusing John's lack of maneuverability and need to reload to overwhelm his tankiness and generally more powerful weapons (the MA5B spews 7.62x51mm bullets at 900rpm, compared to Doomguy's 9mm 525rpm chaingun). Like fuck sakes, man, his pistol shoots .50 bullets that explode inside of you.
