The other weapon I would like to see, but it really isnt a weapon as its more of a person who is a weapon. This new character(s) would be an ONI agent or troop. A chrarcter we havent seen before, they have more specialized skils than that of the ODSTs. They were put into affect after the fall of Reach, which to the knowledge of ONI thought that all Spartans are K.I.A. In the cases that Colonel Ackerson didnt have his "new" project ready, ONI started to train there own specialized troops. They are the only human personel that use pirated Covenant stealth technology, and are specially equiped with different weapons than that of regular personel. There primary weapon is a modified version of the newly created Battle Rifle, but it fires a slighty larger round that is used in the battle rifle and uses an explosive armor piercing tip that was developed specifically for use on Covenant shields and armor. The sidearm that they use is a modified version of the M6D pistol that was originally issued to UNSC peronel, but due to the itroduction of the BR, this firearm has been replaced with a more conventional sidearm. This alternate version has been modified to hold a larger capacity, and is able to switch from singel shot burst to three shot burst similar to the ancient Glock 22C model pistol.
Only as few infantrymen have ever seen them in plain sight, which can be contributed to extreme fighting conditions were they were called in to assist in overrun battles. Since they posses skills higher than that of any UNSC personel, they are called in for only high risk, or technical missions that cant be preformed by the regular infantrymen.
In the actaul game, you would fight along side these special troops in the game, but in only small groups of three or two. If one of these troops were to possibly be killed or wounded, then they would either offer there weapon, or there still living comrade would offer his fallen partners firearm to you. These guns would be extremely effective compared to the standard issue battle rifle.
