Here's the cold hard truth:
The battle rifle ruined Halo. All you do with it is sit back and pop the bad guys off. I don't want to play this game knowing it's another "Get a BR and win." This game is about tactics and stealth, not run around and dominate everything. Seriously, Halo: CE was the most fun because it didn't have a BR in it. I'm personally going to be using the Auto-Mag and Pistol more than a Sniper or Carbine. I'm glad to have a feeling of the classic days again. Good job Bungie, may all the 12 year olds that don't have a life, go get one. Maybe play Halo: CE while your at it.
in all honesty Halo CE's biggest problem was the lack of medium ranged weapons and the scarcity of ammo. The battle rifle didn't ruin halo, but it isn't a necessary weapon.
That's what made it fun. Instead of having access to a BR (which is basically a sniper) you had to get up close with the AR and medium-ranged pistol. The ammo shortage just made it all that funner, having to switch weapons, and not be a pistol-whore the entire game.
