MJOLNIR SOLDIER

Do we know yet will the starting weapon on firefight depend on what character we play as? For example picking Romeo means we start with a sniper rifle. If we dont know yet what do you think would be better?

Don't base whether or not you buy a game on its graphics. Gameplay and how fun it is are what matter most. Not the textures of the grass that you will never need to look at!

SMG and God Pistol.

It is not the sword. It is the man.

I hope they get their respective signature weapons

What makes you say that? The fact that you haven't used it yet?

No, I don't really know its just my opinion.

Adjust your strategy to the game, not the game to your strategy.

The new pistol will be a replacement for the Battle Rifle. It's that simple.

Well stop trying to cram your opinions in to our heads as if they were facts...

A little off topic from op but I saw a 10 minute video of some guy playing firefight and he was mostly using the pistol and he was just shreading through the covenant with it, but then again the new smg looks pretty awesome too! If we did get signature weapons by choosing characters what secondary would you guys want pistol or smg for that matter what signature weapon(sniper, laser, rockets, etc.) would you want???

I just realized how awesome wrecking the enemy team with a Focus Rifle from atop the Spire is. It's magical. It's like Concussion Rifle vs Sword/Shotgun.

The 2 main weapons the new smg and socom are in fact awesome and the smg is a ammo burner so short controlled bursts everyone!

It's not the God pistol of Halo: Combat Evolved's days, despite what you all seem to think.
It's only powerful with headshots, and it's extremely high RoF compared to it's relatively low ammo count, is kind of disappointing.

But nonetheless, it's a combined version of the Halo 1 (scope), and Halo 2 (RoF, presumably power, since it is the Halo 2 Magnum) sidearms, and thus, it's going to -blam!- awesome!

Everyone starts off with a SMG and the Pistol but you can pick up rockets and sniper along with other weapons placed upon the map.

But they weren't Romeo/Buck/Mickey/Dutch/Dare. All were Rookie models I think.

If the Achievements are real, then most likely they start out with their own weapons when you unlock and use them. With Rookie being the default SMG and pistol.
