Gold Pro Mod Arena

Gold Pro Mod Arena is a weapon and mechanic overhaul for Halo Reach that attempts to make the game more suited for competitive play by following design decisions put in place by classic Halo titles while drawing inspiration from PC arena FPS. This is accomplished by creating a more lethal weapon sandbox where each choice has a unique purpose with minimal overlap with any other weapon.

Weapon Changes:

The first changed weapon is the one you spawn with. The Pistol has received a great damage buff, able to kill a player in only 3 headshots as opposed to default Reach's 5. The magazine size has also been increased to 12 to match Halo CE. To balance out this power, the projectile has been slowed significantly so that leading your shots at longer range will be necessary. Bullet spread has been entirely removed so that the player will be entirely responsible for where their shots travel.

Assault Rifle

Your trusty sidearm, the perfect tool for cleaning up a weakened opponent when you are low on Pistol ammo. The Assault Rifle fires much more quickly than its default counterpart, and its accuracy is much more controllable. It now sports a 40-round magazine to fire for even longer. This weapon's aim assist has been reduced drastically in order to make up for its more consistent performance.

Fragmentation Grenades

Frag grenades, mechanically, return to how they were in Halo CE. The grenade's fuse timer will not begin until it comes to rest, forcing a player to place each one properly and predict their opponent. In an attempt to make these grenades perform more consistently, bouncing has been normalized across all surfaces. No longer will sand, grass, or Covenant ships cause grenades to become stuck.

Frag and Plasma Grenades can no longer be shot out of a player's hands, nor can ones on the ground be manually detonated with gunfire.

The DMR has seen fewer changes compared to the previous weapons for familiarity, but still finds a purpose in this sandbox. Its magazine has been reduced to only 12 shots, but damage has been increased to kill in 4 headshots, one less than previously. The damage has been tuned specifically so 2 shots from a DMR will leave a player vulnerable to a single Pistol headshot. This makes the weapon great at long-range support, as its bullets retain their instantaneous travel time.

As with the DMR, this weapon has also received a relatively small amount of changes. The range of its pellets has increased in order to make the weapon function
