I don't actually know, what is the reasoning rehind removing the BR? Is it something to do with the inclusion of the automag?

The automag replaces it, and it will probably be to overused like in halo 3, and possibly making the game easy

How I got Recon.

I don't think it's even been announced that the BR isn't in the game has it? Isn't that all speculation jargon? Anyhow, even if it has been taken away the Automag seems to be a likely candidate to replace it.

It's just campaign, why do you care?

I love the Battle Rifle, but I feel like removing it will add more depth to the game. The BR is a bit too versatile, and it could make taking on the Covenant a bit too easy. Giving you closer range weapons brings you into a more intense combat situation. It also seems like getting rid of the BR would bring you to some more decision making as well: In Halo 3, most people just drop any weapon (other than power weapons) for the BR, but with ODST, you might have to face the decision of keeping the silenced SMG or swapping for a needler or something.
