Who cares? From what I've seen so far, there won't be very many ARs either. And plus, there is the pistol...

The assault rifle will be in ODST. If you watch the video of the campaign where you have to destroy the bridge, when the marines run by the player they had assault rifle and the player could switch weapons with them.

I said there won't be very many. I didn't say there weren't any at all.

I would probably use all the other cool weapons in the Halo games but I probably will use the Pistol, SMG, and Brute Plasma Rifle more then others.

"It's better to live one day as a lion, then one hundred years as a sheep." -Italian Proverb

A Marine scout sniper was once asked what he felt when he killed terrorists.
His response? "Recoil"

"Though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I fear no evil, for You are with me."

The pistol is better and I never really liked the BR.

Not a tree

I ALWAYS blame Stosh, no matter what, except if it's good, then I give credit to Jejor, my favorite Bungie employee. I'm gunna use the Auto-mag.

Are you blind? Or have you not watched the gameplay? There are ARs in the game.

Oh dear, no BR in campaign and firefight. Who cares? You get a pistol that looks better anyways.

If you would honestly choose the AR over the new Pistol or SMG then you don't deserve to play ODST.

We will die much more quickly

AR users rejoice. BR users have a long, hard drink, weep in the corner and shoot yourself in the head with an AR because you refuse to live and because there is no BR in ODST.

Some of you may already know this but I just found out so I thought I should ake a poll for the BR users of ODST.

P.S. I use the BR, sob, sob, sad face, BANG!. He's gone.

please don't post your answers, just vote and discuss.


continue my onslaught of the covenant army...with my scoped pistol.

  • 06.26.2009 10:52 AM PDT

AR all the way

  • 06.26.2009 10:55 AM PDT

seriously BR makes the game very boring and repetitive. By the way its replaced by the auto mag pistol so why the complaining if theres no BR? dont matter.

  • 06.26.2009 11:00 AM PDT

we'll call it a draw

SMGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

  • 06.26.2009 11:03 AM PDT

The Battle Rifle was far too over powered in Halo 2 and 3. It could be used in any situation, against any enemy (I've taken down Wraiths and Hunters with a BR). I think that replacing the Battle Rifle with the Suppressed SMG and the Auto Mag (even if it's only in Campaign and FireFight) is a great idea. I'll probably use:
-SMG & BPR*
-SMG & Auto Mag
-BPR & Auto Mag
*Brute Plasma Rifle.

I don't recklessly murder civilians - I take them out with precision!

Use the automag.

This is why we (BR users) love using BRs in Matchmaking.
Everyone in the game is equal (Weapons, Shields, Damage that you can take, etc.)
So you would have to find a weapon that is all around wonderful, something that performs well in short, medium, and long distances, be an accurate and effective killing weapon. The BR has proven to be just that.

The whole "OMGZ NO BR IN ODST!!!sadface!!" stereotype thing is just ignorant.
Because in Halo 3: ODST, you're fighting the Covenant, not some red/blue Spartan/Elite, so almost every weapon that you would use in campaign would be effective against the enemy.

We don't care that there isn't a BR in Campaign and Firefight. Enemies would easily be taken down by every other weapon.
And even if we did care, the BR is easily replaced by the M7S + Automag Combo.

So there is no need to have a drink, weep in the corner and shoot ourselves in the head with an AR.

Not completely, it still lacks the punch of the Halo 1 Pistol.
