Subject: To Bungie: Will there be a BR in Halo: Reach?

erAsed is RIPPIN

Once you go Black you never go back!

Many a thread have been started proclaiming "NO BR IN REACH!" or "THE BR BETTER BE IN REACH!" I think this forum would be a hell of a lot cleaner if a dev were to simply let us know...

Will there be a Battle Rifle in Halo: Reach? A simple yes or no will go a long way.

Thanks, cheers.

They can't talk about any details of Reach. Supposedly we're supposed to be getting info sooner rather than later. We'll just have to wait and see; the beta is only next spring !

They aren't going to tell you. In the end this thread is just as bad and cluttering as the threads you were trying to help get rid of.

Hello my name is AtRoShIsHgAs but if any one doesn't want to type that up they can call me Kevin. I prefer to play shooter games like Halo or Cod. If you want to find out more about me go to

I believe that if bungie is able to make a weapon better then a Br then i am fine with out it. In fact I did not even miss the Br in ODST's campaign and felt silenced, scoping pistols were better. Which made me wounder if they (Bungie)would make silenced Br.

That pistol was more balanced, it did little damage to shields, but was a headshot beast.

If they stay true to the timeline/books then BR's will definitely be in Reach - the Spartans recieved them as they faught a retreat throught the tunnels w/ Dr. Hasley - there weren't any in Halo CE due to the fact that MC was in space and slipped space jumped when the Spartans got them.

A BR may be in Reach, but only for a short time, it was not described to be used any longer than those tunnels.

I don't want to be in your group quit spamming me

i said this in my thread here http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=37818485&v iewreplies=true#end but it looks like the guy in the middle of this pic http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/749/figuresbolder.jpg is holding some sort of prototype BR.

  • 10.07.2009 8:28 PM PDT

I sure hope it isn't there. And that still looks like an assault rifle to me, not a BR.

Yeah, the underside of an AR.
But if Bungie did confirm/deny it's existence, the forum would still be full of moaners :(

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

I just want the weapon sandbox balances so that each weapon has a specific place, not one weapon that stands out above all.
