Subject: MA5K?

Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed, knowing better men would come,
And greater wars: when each proud fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives: not men, for flags.
"The Next War"

First off, I want to state that I have used the search bar, and I did not find this specific statement. If it has been already posted, I apologize for re-posting it.

Now, Everyone is talking about new weapons for Halo Reach. While it is obvious that some weapons in the books are not in the games, it is also obvious that these weapons were introduced to the Halo universe after most of the games had been developed. With that being said, I do not want to see new weapons (UNSC) in Reach, but weapons that were introduced through the books, such as the MA5K. Now, I would like to see some new Covenant weapons introduced. Maybe something equivalent to the AR, because the Plasma Rifle is more like the SMG. IMO, varied weapons would even out MM, and add some depth to campaign.

On another note, I have seen several posts saying things along the lines of, "No Brutes, and no Brute vehicles!" I see no reason that they would not be on Reach, fighting along the rest of the Covenent. It would be interesting to see how a Brute pack would fight alongside a squad of Elites. Their vehicles, at least the Chopper would have already been developed, since the prototype Choppers were introduced in Contact Harvest.

These are just a few of my own considerations about the upcoming game. I would love to read yours!

Remember,
It is easy to be male
it is another thing to be a man.

A carbine version of the assault rifle.
Basically a weapon with a shorter barrel and a stripped down frame making it lighter and easier to use and conceal on more secretive missions.

That's not a bad idea actually. I've always wanted to see the MA5K featured in the Halo games.

I think it would bridge the firepower gap perfectly.
