Subject: Possibilty of new Weapons in REACH?

There once was an ugly barnacle. He was so ugly that everyone died.

The end.

If you look at the Halo: Reach Banner you will see 5 spartans. The second one (going left) is carrying a knife. Could this possibly be a hint that we might be able to use a knife in Halo: Reach, and even more new weapons? I hope so, i want more weapons. For Covenant and Human.

Knifes would be pointless for a spartan to wield. It would be like a bruteshot that can't fire any grenades.

its all fun and games until someone gets hurt--Then its more fun and games!

Well the Chaingun yes, but the knife is no so much.

In ODST Buck had his knife on him the whole time but we never got to use it.

The last time I tried to make a quote, a car smashed through my wall and the tire hit my grandmother in the other room. But for those of you who can haz once more between five, I say it will be five between seven divided by zero multiplied by Chick Norass and Broce Tee.

I have 2 questions: Where's my MA5K and WHY CAN'T I USE MY IRON SIGHTS?!

I see your piont
But ODSTs and Spartans have targeting Computers, which i would assume work better then iron sights, I just wish they worked as good as the should for weapons like the MA5 or M7, because right now iron sights would be a God send, well in ODST the M7S was done very well, so i hope the AR works that way too.

as for the OP
1- Plasma pistol falcon punch is funner than stab stab
2- I would like the machine gun from Halo 2.

From what I've gathered, the only weapons used in the novel are already/have been used in the Halo games we have today.

All I can think of is Modified versions of these weapons, similar to that the Spartans use in the novel.

Well the BR has a scope, the SMG has them, the shotgun has them, the mauler has them, I have no clue how the hell a Marine could aim with an AR as it has none (Which is where I hope the MA5K comes into play as it has them), the magnum has them, the spiker has them, and that's it.

well you are not quit getting my point.
when you Zoom the BR, Carbine, and Snipers you don't actually the scoop, instead you use the Built in targeting Computer

the Targeting Computer is the Reason for the reticule

and i agree iron sights would help, because right now 12 year old sister is a better shot with a BB gun then the MC is with MA5

but why not instead of built in binoculars, why not an aim mechanic similar to RFG where you get a slight zoom, the gun becomes more accurate, and you get a smaller reticule.
it would not be out of the way and be unbalanced because you still have fire in burst to accurate.

I write for Geekscape.net, more specifically I write a column that goes by Teabag Prevention. Teabag Prevention does exactly what you think by providing tips. We've been around for a while, and now we're doing Reach tips. Go read 'em!

If anything, they'd be "new" old weapons. :p
