ok.......people are being too stupid about this......so will put an end to it...........

bungie has created 2 new weapons (the smg and the br) to replace 2 old weapons

people seem to think that the br replaces the assault rifle.........not true

Battle Rifle = Old Pistol

SMG = Assault Rifle

Why? Well, the br is an accuracy weapon that features the pistol-like zoomed fire and a 3-round burst for close range (which the pistol, in a way, lacked)

The Assault Rifle was only good close up, same goes for the smg.......they are bullet pumping weapons except now the SMG is just an upgraded, dual-wieldable version of the Assault Rifle

The AR Will not be making another apperance and that is for sure. The pistol is up for grabs, but honestly, why in gods name would you want it! The battle rifle HAS a zoom and a single shot with a whole ton of bullets. If you want a dinky gun that has a lotta firepower indeed, the SMG will do the job.

Anyone complaining about the pistol should really take a look at the weapons list again and figure out if they really should be complaining.

I need a weapon.

I posted on this about a week ago. You're definitely right . . . in Halo CE, ur 2 main weapons were the AR and the Pistol, now theyre gonna be the BR and the SMG. No ones gonna believe you, but youre definitely right. Bungie saw how everyone liked the pistol, so they made it better and made it into the BR to become you're main weapon. So in a sense, the BR replaces the AR as your MAIN/official weapon, but in reality it is a pumped up pistol.

lets be real you never heard that. Warrior i agree w/ u and anyone who doesn't see this is blind. I have heard roomers that the pistol is coming back but w/ less power and no zoom.

yeah, maybe the pistol comes back as a magnum, but the ORIGINAL pistol is replaced by the BR as your mid-long range main weapon

My proof.
Did you know in Halo First Strike Master Chief uses a assault rifle and a battle rifle? And some of the other Spartans use SMG's?
Theres your proof that the AR is returning, and where would the AR be without the pistol?

you are right warrior. its not some revelation, its fact. but one more thing of why there wont be an M6D pistol- the battle rifle shoots 12 times before you reload[in 3 shot bursts]. so they wont make a weapon with the same ammount of ammo[basically] and same targeting, and same scope. kinda sounds like the same weapon...or wait, the M6D is gone.

they made the M6d two handed and weaker long range with better melee. they call it the Battle Rifle. they took the AR and made it one handed and gave it a higher rate of fire and named it the SMG.

without a doubt there is a new pistol, but its going to be a counter to the plasma pistol, power wise[wishful that its somehow versatile as the PPistol]. but dual weildable.
