Typical Halo nerd. Move along.

ODST's are famous for their Battle Rifle and SMG. Will the BR be in ODST? Hopefully, but from all the videos I've seen, I haven't seen it yet. Thoughts?

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?

From the looks of it, the pistol will take back its role as the mid-range powerhouse. I can't say I'm disappointed; the BR was getting a little old in my opinion.

No shields, no recoverable health, can't jump as high, aren't as strong, but going up against more Brutes than Master Chief....hmmmm, I could use a BR.

We march to the drums of the damned.

Dude, how awsome would it be to have a grenade launcher equiped on the bottom of the Battle Rifle.

I hope not. I´m very happy with my new zoomed SMG and Magnums.

Their good for shields, but for power and accuracy I would like to have a Battle Rifle. It has better zoom. and more power.

  • 06.04.2009 3:34 PM PDT

I miss Halo. Maybe Halo 4 will change that.

Edit: Lol nope

Silenced SMG with zoom option > Loud Battle rifle with huge spread.

Lol. ODST Pistol > Battle Rifle. In this game anyway. Need to live with it, the BR isn't everything.

Actually, the pistol will basically be the ODST's BR.

Which is awesome, that pistol is simply BAD ASS.

ODST's are famous for being badass. The only thing famous for the Battle Rifle is MLG and don't get me (or Bungie.net) started on them.

Oh so you mean the most OP weapon ever?

Maybe we will be getting the battle rifle but a different version? Maybe the one from the Halo 2 E3 Demo with single shot. Maybe this one will also be lowed down in ammo and may not be as powerful.

Couldn't have said it better myself...unfortunately, as it seems to have already started, there is going to be quite an uproar in the Halo community if the BR is in fact, non-existent in ODST. Personally, I could care less whether it was in the game or not, but those die hard BR fans who live and die by it, might get frustrated and swear off halo forever, eliminating the BR fan masses from the game!!!

ODSTs aren't famous for their Battle Rifles, they're famous for kicking ass.

Yeah, I don't think we'll be seeing the BR.
If you look here, and look at the pic of the lobby, the two Battle rifles on the legendary symbol were replaced with silenced smgs.

Well the Assault Rifle is in ODST. I don't see the need for the Battle Rifle - it's too strong for the environment of ODST.

Are you really suggesting that the silenced SMG will have less of a bullet spread than that of a BR ?

  • 06.04.2009 3:54 PM PDT

Look here.

What is the weapon in the right of the drop pod? Oh, that's right. It's a battle rifle.

EDIT: Sorry, I screwed it up. Go to the link, click "Ordance", click "Drop Pod", and then look at the picture.

BR is near the middle of the picture.
