1- So far Bungie has released 3 (11 counting the Game Informer mag) screenshots of multiplayer and something like 20 of single player (as well as the E3 demo). Many guns have been seen, including the rocket launcher, sniper rifle, battle rifle, SMG, shotgun, needler, plasma pistol, plasma rifle, and the Brutes' weapons. However, there have been no appearances by the pistol or the assault rifle!!!
2- The battle rifle has been designed in such a way that it replaces both the pistol (zoom capabilities and accuracy) and assault rifle (larger magazine). Also, the SMGs are the new bullet hoses for those who still want a fully automatic gun.
3- I understand that this is isn't straight from Bungie per se, but the top player in the XBL alpha test of Halo 2 talked about the Battle Rifle as the replacement for the pistol from Halo 1. (Read the new Game Informer- there's an interview with a guy named char who was the best player in the alpha.
You know, it's kind of sad to lose two guns from the original and it will change my multiplayer style a little bit, but I'm not worried. I know Bungie will still keep the game balanced, smooth, and fun.
