sig goes where?

Unless Bungie want to ret-con the BR into Reach, chances are it's not coming back.
So, anyone else think this beast of a side-arm would help fill the hole left behind from the missing BR?

War, War never changes.

Got my Recon from the Vidmaster achievments, like most.
Reach IS awesome, don't deny it

I want a rapid fire pistol, yes. I dont care what it is called just as long as i can fire it quickly.

Clearly because the desktop uses a 3 prong plug and a laptop uses a 2 prong plug, the microwave will fill your car with tostitos better

Make it a 5 shot kill, lessen the recoil and yes, I would.

The BR was still being developed, so i doubt it will be in there.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Why would the BR being in REACH be a retcon? It was a prototype in 2525 and fielded in 2531 (Halo Wars medics); it was around during the invasion of Reach. We just never saw it in Halo 1 because... well, because numerous weapons' lockers within the PoA (including the Spartans') were destroyed during the orbital battle.

We saw them in Halo 2 because... well, we were on Earth, and were better equipped than by a single Halcyon class cruiser venting atmosphere and limping into a far-distant alien system with limited supplies and personnel.

I would like both. Turn the BR into a re-skinned Halo 1 pistol, but instead of being a 3SK it would be a 5SK. Bring in the ODST pistol and make it "more silenced" (silenced weapons should not betray your position on the motion tracker OR give an arrow pointing towards the direction of fire on the target's HUD).

It should not be dual wieldable (and neither should anything else).

No it wasn't. They used it during first contact on harvest.

Get rid of the ODST Pistol. It is nothing like the Halo 1 pistol. The only similarity is the scope. That is it. It is incredibly weak. It's more like the H2 psitol with the added scope.

What brings you to my humble little profile page? Well, whatever it is, you're more than welcome, so make yourself at home.

Why not take a look at my Service Record?

...but if you're interested in only the best screenshots I've produced, then please do visit my file share!

Get rid of the BR! The only way I'll ever like the Battle Rifle is if they make it single-fire and up the damage per shot to compensate.

I hate how it fires burst and half the shots go wide. I'm not even a pro player, I just find the BR very unsatisfying to use because it's too inaccurate and burst fire isn't fun.

The Auto Mag is cool because it does what it is supposed to do and actually gives the plasma weapons some purpose.

EDIT: I don't mean make a clone of the Covie Carbine, I mean bring the BR closer in line with the original M6D pistol - but don't make it *that* powerful.

Look, a half monkey half pony monster!

I would like it if they put it in reach un-silenced!

i love the new pistol.
if they were to put it in though, it would need to be a bit stronger as its pretty much just a headshot weapon in ODST

Halo 2 pre-patch pistol?

Nihilism (from the Latin nihil, nothing) is a philosophical position that argues that existence is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value.

Put simply in the words of Nietzsche as "the will to nothingness".

It IS the Halo 2 pistol with an added 4x scope and silencer.

Halo 2 pre-patch pistol?
Yes. When Halo 2 first came out the Pistol was pretty decent, and a monster when dual wielded. After the patch (Halo 2 1.1) the Pistol became 100% worthless. 13 headshots to kill someone and it had a 12 shot magazine.
