The only absolute confirmed weapon out of that list is the shotgun. The SMG has take the role of assualt rifle almost entirely so I wouldn't be surprised if the assualt rife is out. BR is like a pistol a lot but I think there will be a pistol again, just a different form.

When Halo2 comes out, I think I'll hold a memorial service for the MA5B and the M6D. They may be "back" in a different forms (BattleRifle and SMG), but it just won't feel the same. *sigh* I'm going to miss those old friends.

If the pistol does make a come back which in my opinion is doubtfull, then it should have no scope and takes 4 -5 shots to kill at least.

Definetly. Since the BR has a scope, its gona fill the spot of short to medium range. The SMG fills the short range, rapid fire category. The only way the pistol would make a come back is if they took away the explosive tips and just made them hollow points, but a bigger caliber. The shotgun might change, maybe bigger magazine or different shells. The SR will have a more powerful scope so it can cope with the bigger maps. The rocket launcher has only changed with the tracking system. And maybe, just maybe, there might be some type of rapid fire, short range weapon thats bigger than the SMG.

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

Don't forget the Rocket Launcher has also increased its zoom from 2x to 5x.
