Hey guess what!? I play CoD more than Halo, but I'm not an annoying fanboy. I love CoD more, but I like how involved the Halo Community is...

No everyone starts out with an Automag and SMG

So in the E3 trailers why do certain characters have like a rocket or a sniper rifle?

Because that's there role in the Squad for Campaign. For example Romeo is the Squads Marksman so he has a Sniper Rifle in Campaign

No signature found. DO NOT Click here to change this.

That's because they already picked the weapons up, in campaign you start with your signature weapon.

Which makes worrying about who you play as a little more pointless.

Exactly, and yes OP people on Campaign has a role to to do so they have that Weapon to fulfill that role. Like I said b4 Romeo role to Snipe and pick off enemies from Far range.

It'd be good if certain characters got upgraded when using their preferred weapon, i.e. Mickey's rockets are a little more powerful.

Be nice..

It's a good thing that everybody starts with a smg and pistol. That way everybody doesn't chooses romeo and gets snipers.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.

A recent weekly update went into detail about the layout of Alpha Site and mentioned where the power weapons are (they can be found at certain points on the map when you first start out). Not all are right next to you when you spawn though.

EDIT: Forgot to quote. Was directed @ Bloodstaind

In campaign, that's their specific role. In firefight, he just picked up a rocket launcher.

You can pickup weapons throughout firefight some spawn right next to you in the main room, some outside, and also about it being pointless who you choose, you can change them around anyway, different colours, insignia, etc.
