cov carbine has rounds, we think, cuz it ejects empty cases after each shot. so maybe its a bullet, and travels a lot faster than PRifle shots. and its more accurate, has a 2x scope, and a high rate of fire, maybe higher than the BR? who know right now?

The carbine is like a sniper each time you zoom in & shoot the weapon kicks back & you have to rezoom just like the human sniper now, check it out in the june issue of OXM

I'm suprised people can be so ignorant. The Carbine is like a battle rifle end of story.

the carbine will have a scope on it for longer range shots. and will also be more accurate than the plasma rifle but with a slower rate of fire.it is meant to equal the battle rifle in strength. if you want to see a picture of it, go to the screen shot section, and find the one with the 2 elites standing in an indoor setting, they are both carrying a carbine.

First of all, the carbine is the covinent battle rifle, just because its got a scope doesent mean its the sniper rifle. Also, in reply to the guy who said it unzooms every time you shoot, im not sure if that true. I mean, in the x-box magizine it said it kicked back. It said nothing about it unzooming.

man with gun, you are correct.

it said the weapon kicked back, much like many of the weapons. the SMG for example kicks back, making you aim higher. the recoil that makes you unzoom is on the human Sniper Rifle. hasnt been said to be anywhere else.

"carbine" is defined as a light automatic rifle. that is most definetly not a sniper rifle, even if it does have a 2x scope. you can snipe with it, but then again i have sniped with the plasma rifle, and that sure as hell doesnt mean that the plasma rifle is a sniper rifle.

so maybe this is the last time i state the obvious...

Ho! Wait, hold on here. In Halo 2, the Sniper Rifle unzooms after EVERY shot?
