Hopefuly we'll see it again (along with dual wielding) in Halo 4.

it well deffenetly be in halo 4 because Master Chief has it in the trailor.

P.S he puts something onto it at the end of the trailor im wondering what it is

That's a pistol at the end not a SMG. Also: lern 2 spel

Oh... Sorry

i think its stupid how they put all these crap in and cut some major things "hey lets make firefight customzable and cut booting in game and the smg"

  • 08.13.2011 8:05 PM PDT

They wanted to make a new arsenal of weapons? I don't know, they had been using all the same guns save for a few since Halo 2, guess they wanted to try something different. The silenced SMG would have been cool though...

ur reachtarded that was sooo clearly a handgun/ magnum with a possible grenade launching mechanisn.
It would make no sense for it to be a ssilencer because everyone knows there is not sound in space

Why get handed lemons when you can grab an orange?

They took a box, labeled it, "Fun things about halo" and chucked everything fun into it, along with the smg into it, taped it up, and buried it in the deepest darkest corner of the studio.


ODST smg rocks.

Agreed.
Also, maybe it wasn't in because there wasn't enough resources? I could've sworn in the latest ViDoc they said they almost scrapped the shotgun in Reach. I would take that over another automatic weapon any day.

If they took out the shotgun... NO INFECTION!!!! 0.0

He uses some kind of Grenade Launcehr pistol, not an SMG. He also reloads it at the end with another grenade.

The SMG wasn't in Halo Ce/Halo until H2 so why have a SMG if Reach is before CE and there wasn't even a SMG in that game.

  • 08.14.2011 11:08 AM PDT

It's not Hip-Hop, its Electro.... prick.

Because there was no duel wielding and they already had a weak automatic weapon... the AR. So there was just no need for it.

I DO have time to bleed...i just dont want to.

unsc hadnt invented it yet

exacty thank you! i realy cant see how people keep thinking ite an attatchment dont they know how grenade launchers (or what ever that gun is) works?

i like using the smg in halo 3 singular not dual wield so i can do a quick birst and hit them and they die

  • 08.14.2011 1:01 PM PDT

I'm guessing they also were limited on space and SMG was one of the guns they cut.

I mean really... look at just how much STUFF is in that disk, it's just mind blowing.

  • 08.14.2011 1:06 PM PDT

Am I supposed to write something funny here?

I think AR reskinned and -sounded (animation fix too!) as M7S would have been nice. But it would have been also kinda pointless. But it would have been nice for machinimas, and nice thing for ODSTs in campaign to have.

  • 08.14.2011 1:10 PM PDT

The OST for ODST!

Without dual-wielding, the SMG is just a less efficient AR. They cut it out to simplify the sandbox.

I kind of have a similar opinion on this, I think it would be cool if they made the AR with 48 rounds/magazine, instead of 32, and maybe even a zoom option.

No.

Because it sucked.

I am a Gamer by nature, but an anime lover by heart

I see that many ties to come up with reasons related to the Halo universe itself, such as the the weaponry on Reach was only prototypes and all that, but I think all those reasons is BS, no there reasons why there is no SMG's in Reach is because there is no dual wield, which means that they would pretty useless,

Besides un-upgraded Spartans in Halo Wars wield SMG's and that was before Reach.

  • 08.14.2011 2:25 PM PDT

every 1 keeps saying cuz of dual weildig WHY IN GODS NAME WUD THEY REMOVE IT AND THEY COULD HAVE PUT THE SILENCED SMG IT DOES HAVE A PURPOSE THE ONLY SCOPED AUTO WEAPON AND THE ONLY SILENCED 1 PLUS IF THE REASON WAS ITS A LESS EFFECIENT AR (WHICH ITS NOT) WHY IS THERE A PLASMA RIFLE AND A PLASMA REPEATER WATS THE POINT THERE THEN AND NO IT WASNT CUZ IT WASNT INVENTED CUZ ITS IN HALO WARS DUALWEILDED

The SMG was in service in 2525. That's before all the Halos.

  • 08.15.2011 12:55 PM PDT

ODSTs use silenced smgs

Spartan 2s use them duel wielded. Spartan 3s cannot duel wield, they are not strong enough nor does their armour enhance their strength.

Therefore smgs weren't needed. Also, bungie wanted to give every weapon a purpose, and as duel wielding wouldn't be in the game, the AR outclasses the smg. The smg therefore gets cut.

Code Of Conduct

TO ALL;

The Sub Machine Gun Was Made In 1941.

  • 08.15.2011 1:06 PM PDT

Yes, I did make that mess. What are you going to do about it?

I don't know why the cut the SMG, and those who say it wasn't invented that BS, we have many guns now that are SMGs and could be modified to hold a suppressor and I think we can easily say that Noble 6 isn't really up to par, i mean he can't even hold to guns at the same time, i'm pretty sure that our marines now could duel wield, now would they be accurate is a different story. but going back to OP, I don't really know, don't really want to know. BTW I everything before I said OP is for the lawlz and I was jk.

im not going to say it has anything to do with canon because the brutes weren't introduced until halo 2 either but their still on reach. without dual wielding it was rather useless though. its just a weak assault rifle. this forum should be titled "why no dual wielding in reach?"
