I think all wepeons should be back in halo 2 or at least the AR. Yeah sure it sucks but it was the marine standard. Like the battle rifle it plays an important role in the game but thats my opinion. I just think it should be in halo 2. Its my favorite wepeon.

i disagree. i think bungie is trying to have HALO evolve (no pun intended) as the game gets into later stages. War brings about better weapons, so of course Bungie will create new and better weapons to replace the weak weapons of the original Halo. With the new weapons Bungie is forcing us to rethink strategies. No more can we pistol snipe :(
But they are trying to make the game as fun as possible, and i'm willing to bet that once you try the new weapons you will be in love with them, I know i will.
And about the AR being the standard, it WAS in HALO: CE. But then again so was the musket in the Napoleonic wars, and the spear in the Punic wars. If they do include the AR, it will be so out of date that it will be like trying to kill a sniped with a shotgun from across blood gulch. pretty damn hard ;)

Naw some of the weapons will be back like shotgun and rocket launcher. But the AR should stay in H1 because the BR just totally owns it.

yeah, believe in Bungie, there's many reasons they're doing it, including balancing issues, it was too good in the origional.

I didn't pistol snipe much, but i'll definately be BR sniping in Halo 2!!!

But which covenant would use it?

Grunts & Jackals are too small, they wouldn't be able to handle it properly because of the size and Jackals have shields anyway, Brutes and Elites are too proud, they wouldn't stick back out of the fight sniping, there's no glory or valour in that, they want to get right in on the action. hunters have the FRCs attached to them as standard so i doubt they would, plus, you can't see them sticking out of the fight either can you? The only other race confirmed are the prophets, who won't be using weapons will they. Engineers are the last race we know about in the covenant, and they're not in on fighting either.

You've got to think about it, yeah a covenant sniper rifle would be col, but who would use it?

What are you talking about? the covie sniper rifle has not been seen or confirmed, if you are thinking of the carbine, then look around and you'll see it's definately not a sniper rifle.

The pistol you were talking about is the magnum pistol. I doubt that will be in because one of the reasons that the origional pistol was removed was because it was too good. The magnum is even more powerful and easier to hold (balanced perfectly) so i doubt it'll be in.

First of all, i agree with all the weapons returning.
Second, people should stop speculating and just wait for the game to come out. Just because some1 says there's gonna be a covie sniper doesn't mean it's gonna be in the game. The carbine is the covie's zoom weapon, btw

First of all, i agree with all the weapons returning. It's just stupid to assume that Bungie will get rid of any of the weapons, even if the pistol is cheap. All the weapons should return. They are all a part of Halo, and Halo wouldn't be the same without them.


They have said that they won't be returning.

Maybe so, but it isn't going to act as a sniper rifle

All weapons must return or my little demons will attack you all.

I'll call up Father Madechi, who is a Malkavian priest, and I'll have him blow Demontate 8, True Faith 3, Occult 7, and Preist Disciplines 9. (Look up Vampire: the Masquerade by White Wolf for that)

I'd win and you'd all be punished for the thought of it not returning. Argument resolved.

You guys already knows my stance all weapons should return with subtle diffrences (AR=BR and Magnum=M6D)

. . . What in the blue hell.

...what in blue hell?

Father Madechi is a Malkavian Priest, aka he is a psychopatheic vampire that is really f-ing mental.

Demontate 8 allows him to deny the exsistence of something and to create the exsistence of something.

True Faith makes it so all others around him remotely believe that which he says and bow before him. Anything else that does not bow runs away scared to death.

And Priest disciplines 9 aloows him to call down fire and brim stone as well as call forth demons or angels as he sees fit.

And since he is my character in my Vampire LARP (live action role play), I can use these abilities.

That answer your question?
