I believe Halo: Reach needs more weapons because:

In Halo: CE we always ended up using an Assault Rifle and a Pistol most of the time.

In Halo 2 it was the same with a Battle Rifle or Carbine and a powerful backup weapon.

In Halo 3 we had a Battle Rifle and rarely used any other weapon ever.

Maybe even customizable weapons and an automatic weapon that has more stopping power.

A light machine gun, a grenade launcher, help me with what else.

Try using more weapons than the battle rifle then. Theres quite a bit of variety, there really isn't a bad weapon in this game, just ones you haven't learned how to use to their fullest yet.

If they do add in another weapon, maybe 1 or 2. I'd like to see something similar to the scoped SMG in Halo 3: ODST.

Answer:

I use the smg, mauler, carbine, AR, Plasma Rifle, and every other weapon more than the battle rifle. Besides this is about making weapons that are not all around rifles like the BR. I like the fact that they are cutting the Battle Rifle out in Halo 3: ODST so that you try out more weapons and take weapons that are better at different range in order to balance it out. Trust me when you play Halo 3 on Legendary the only weapon that really works on shield and flesh is the BR and nothing else.

(Just so you know I don't hate the BR. I just use it less than most people)

No new weapons. Make the current weapons all unique, versatile and balanced first.

That is a good point. No new weapons just balanced ones.

Of course a greater variety of weapons (at least in Customs) is always a good idea

Check out this thread I came across for an idea that could work pritty well.
