BR was built in 2525 and the Fall of Reach book begins in 2535.
The reason it wasn't in Halo 1 is obvious, this is a game we're talking about here and gameplay comes first, it's not like they had the BR thought up when Halo 1 was being built, they just made sure that they had a medium ranged rifle (the Assault Rifle), a pistol, sniper, explosive weapon (rocket launcher), etc.
If game play really did come first, then we would never of had the BR.
Please back of the 2525 date with some proof. That is saying it was made before John was even born.
Summary: Those who love the BR, are those who never played Halo 1 competitively. The Halo 1 pistol is a more skilled based, and competitive weapon.
There you go.
You are right. But it was a proto-type. The Spartans during REACH did not use it.
No... it can be explained by the BR never was supposed to happen, and therefore never was in the original Halo script. It was sadly put in for convenience by some half cocked author who should have never written any of the Halo books, unlike Eric Nylund - the only good author of the halo books.
Not to mention that Halopedia is like Wikipedia, in where ANYBODY can add to it. And much of the information doesn't have references, and is just plain wrong. So no, it is not gospel.
