I was just wondering if the AR was going to be usable and if anyone has any gameplay videos could you post a link please or PM me? Thanks

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

Replaced with the new and improved SMG. No AR.

Bungie confirmed that there will be no BR, but renders of Buck show him carrying an Assault Rifle, so I'd assume it's in campaign at least.

Yeah, That picture was the whole reason I started the thread. I saw that, but a whole lotta SMG in the gameplay and not a single video of the AR. It's my favorite weapon in the Halo series, so I would be a bit bummed if it wasn't in there.

Well it's likely that you'd start with an AR for Bucks part both because he is holding it in the renders, and because Bungie wouldn't want everyone to get through campaign too easily with the new toys. They could just take it back a notch weapon-wise for some parts of campaign.

Oya!!!!!

I've seen videoes of marines using Ar's in Dutch's flashback

Isna 'Nosolee, my Sangheili name.

Yes, it will be in it, however, I do nor know why you would want to use it with the new SMG and Pistol you will have, personally.

Four shots, four kills, reload, repeat. This is the work of a sniper.

Actually, those people are wrong, there is an AR, I think they are thinking of the BR.

Well, I'm going to get acquainted with the new gear in the campaign, but in firefight I think it would be nice to switch to some old favorites.

I guess there isn't conformation one way or the other. As far as we know, it's not there though.

  • 06.24.2009 11:16 PM PDT

You know there might be an appearance of the AR but most likely not usable. But then again maybe in firefight?

  • 06.24.2009 11:39 PM PDT

Death to rank junkies.

Some marines use it in Duch's flashback and Buck uses it. It's in.

Do NOT listen to them. There will be Assault Rifles in the game. It's already been confirmed.

  • 06.24.2009 11:52 PM PDT

We can only pray that they remembered to put it in the game.

The AR IS IN THE GAME. There are pictures of people holding them and you being able to pick them up. Where the hell do people hear this stuff.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

I hope that the AR is in, most likely will be. I use the AR actually quite alot, but not alot in multiplayer. And i'm also very happy that they took the BR out.

  • 06.25.2009 2:44 AM PDT

It's in the game, don't see why you'd pick one up or use it if you have the new SMG and the pistol. Since Buck's holding it, it'll probably be your main weapon when playing as him.

And in Firefight, the SMG, the pistol and the Carbine are all better alternatives.
