Well those pictures where leaked and whoever posted them is not enjoying his stay at Banada, but people say those are Beta Beta ( That was on purpose) pictures but dont get your hopes up. Because the Spartan lazer was made in 2560-2575, and Reach is before 2552.

Umm...WHAT?

How could the Spartan Laser be invented AFTER Halo 3? Do explain, sir.

*huff* if you read the books, there is no mention of spartan lazer, and anyways Halo REACH is a PREQUAL to Halo 1. And where there any Lazers in Halo 1? not unless you modded, there non existent before halo 1.

It should also be noted the Slazer made an appearance in ODST, which was during Halo 2.

Maybe Lasers didn't exist in Halo: CE because in the real world Bungie did not think of it yet.

Once again, my friend, you are wrong. Lasers are used by Spartans during the events of Halo Wars. It WAS existent, just not used by the Master Chief much before Halo 3.

Presumably in the Pillar of Autumn's weapons locker, which was destroyed during the jump from Reach. Bungie threw in a back door there. They can put anything they want into Reach and it'll fit the canon.

Nah man, Halo Wars wasn't canon. There were flood in Halo Wars too, yet they were first discovered in Halo: CE.

I find it perplexing that Spartan Laser is in Halo Wars, but I don't see the Spartan Laser being pumped out after Halo 2 and before Halo 3. It does make sense for it to be in Reach. More and more, it seems likely that in the Haloverse, the UNSC DID have more weapons than the Assault Rifle, Pistol, Shotgun, Sniper Rifle, and Rocket Launcher within their arsenal, and that Halo: Combat Evolved was released in a time where Bungie didn't have the available assets to properly include more of these factors.
It would make sense if the Spartan Laser was in Halo: Reach. Seems like the kind of thing that would be invented on Reach.

Gotta step up here and tell you that you are mistaken. It was mentioned in something I can't remember (perhaps that Halo 2 booklet) that the Covenant had encountered the Flood in the past, but not in nearly as great a number as on Alpha Halo. I'm not certain that this justifies Halo Wars either, since there was a whole planet of Flood, but it is worth noting that canonically, the Covenant has dealt with the Flood in the past. It never elevated anywhere close to where Alpha Halo and Delta Halo reached, though.

Halo Wars was canon it's just that The Spirit of Fire wasn't where ti was supposed to be when it's crew discovered the Flood and due to the events at the end of the game they couldn't get word out to the UNSC.

i don't know how that would make sense to have them on reach. but the guided rocket launcher would be nice to again.

Well it's called a Spartan Laser. OBVIOUSLY it was made for the Spartans which were in turn made on Reach.

Conclusion: They were likely made on Reach as a special weapon for Spartans.

  • 11.06.2009 5:59 PM PDT

To people saying the Spartan Laser was made after Halo 2 because it isn't seen before Halo 3:

The Battle Rifle was made before Halo CE, but isn't seen in Halo CE.

So I am guessing the AR just dropped out of this realm of existence during Halo 2 and came back in Halo 3?

The Spartan laser can probably, by all canon rights, be in Reach, via this 100% unofficial explanation I invented -- for a fan fiction -- that Bungie should steal to make everything good.

The weapon has been around for years, although when first developed it was so dangerous that only Spartans in full MJOLNIR armour could test it, hence the name 'Spartan laser'. The UNSC would constantly bring out prototypes over the years, each safer than the last. By 2552, the design was practically perfected, and safe. The latest upgrade was lost at Reach (The one we see in the you know what), and so in Halo 3 etc, the UNSC had to use to previous model, which was safe albeit less efficient.

Don't take that to heart. I made it up.

Yeah. They uninvented it in Halo 2 and then reinvented it in Halo 3.

Because Muslims surgically implant organic bombs in their testicles, which in turn will be injected into women during sex, which will grow into BABY BOMBS!

The laser existed before Reach(see Halo Wars). There is a high chance it will be in the game.

The timeline is not screwed up TaterTot.

It's a -blam!- video game. Gameplay > Canon

The reason they weren't in halo 1 was because they only had the supplies that the pillar of autumn had so spartan lasers could of been around then.
