Not that it matters to much,but why did they decide to take the BR55 out?

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

Actually, yes they did.

Nothing is better than gaming through the day, into the night, then back into the day. It's like when you finally push that power button you feel like you've accomplished nothing, but at the same time, you can't stop smiling.

BR55? Why can't you just say BR or Battle Rifle?

Yes, they took it out.

Because they wanted people to use a wider variety of guns instead of just one.

Ohh,alright

убивать или быть убитыми

Bungie took BR55 out cause it wouldnt be logical in the story line because ODST happens around Halo 2, when the BR wasn't being distributed in the UNSC.

wrong. odst happens pretty much at the end of halo 2 and the beginning of halo 3. and besides the BR was in halo 2 bud

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

It's just a gameplay decision. That's all it is. There's no deeper underlying reason or canonical reasons. The new pistol fills the BR role, so there's really no reason to have it. Strictly gameplay, I believe.

Besides the point, the guns weren't actually introduced in the game's world at the same time they were in the the actual time line. The BR existed when chief was on 004, Bungie just hadn't thought of it yet.

I am a Halo 3 Failure.

Dude, the BR was one of the first weapons you picked up in Halo 2.
