If you watch the single player E3 vid near the beginning, somewhat after the throws the grenade at the grunts he reloads his battle rifle (release, take out empty clip, slides in new one, locks in clip) but if you watch the multiplayer one he reloads it and all he does is pull out the clip and put a new one back in... it's most likley for balance but i think it's kewl when everything in the game world works how it does in multiplayer, for a more realism feel, but if not it's all god, i mean like, IT'S HALO 2 FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

sorry if this has been mentioned before...

i noticed this too it could be that they are different but i hope not, it is more likely that they tinkered things around, since the game is still in progress, also look at the reticule for the smgs in e3 2003 vid, they are different then in mp, not mch different, but more complex looking, they most likely changed these things over the course of the year between shows.

Well the smg recticle was the AR's old one.
When chief duel wielded 2 smgs the recticle was two AR ones combined together.
Mabye you get differant looking ones depending on what weapons you deul wield.

Could be; but at the E3 2004 when they were giving a demonstration, the SMG and needler were dual wielded but the reticle stayed the same. I think the reticle is always going to be the right guns.

Also, I really hope they put an ammo indicator for the second gun...
