The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

That is the Covenant Carbie, but it is not a sniper rifle. It is similar to the Battle Rifle.

That is the Covenant Carbine

"It's powerful when zoomed and very annoying and dangerous unzoomed. Think of it as the Covenant answer to the Battle Rifle, but with a few subtle differences."

I think the 'flower thing' is either part of the scope, or ( my personal theory ) an ammo counter. Each preen 'peg' is a bolt/round. It may even be to shots to each green peg. tey would fade out as you shoot. Or maybe the Cov. Carbine holds less ammo but is more powerfull per shot than the BR is. That is just an idea, untill Nov. 9th or Bungie says something, no one knows for sure.
