Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:
“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”
I want the Halo 3 AR as a base.
Increase the magazine to 36 rounds.
Against health/HP/Non-shields: 2x damage for headshots (still would take 3 headshots once the shields were down to kill)
Barrel Mounted flashlight, single and multiplayer
Decrease time to target slightly, lets say H3 AR time to target = 100, H3 BR time to target is 50, HR AR would be ~ 75. Or make it hitscan.
Reduce lunge range to .5 meters for all weapons except Hammer, Sword, and Brute Weapons.
This would make the AR more competitive, by adding more rounds to the magazine, increasing it's effective range.
It would make the weapon take more skill, by granting extra damage for those who aim for the head once shields are down, and reducing the range of melee lunge.
And since the melee range on all weapons is reduced except for specialty weapons, it wouldn't be a major disadvantage.
