Evidence: The actual military does the same thing, I mean, they still use the vietnam-era grenade launchers, but they also have the grenade launchers with the revolver-type barrels. Just because they have new things doesn't meant they don't use old stuff too.

I dont see Halo as the type of game to have differnt versions of every weapon, or even a single weapon.

I'd love it if they kept both.

Hey baby, its all Kool and the Gang.

Chief is holding the AR in the trailer. Go watch it, its even the screenshot section.

"You have been measured, you have been weighed: And you have been found lacking."

That rifle looks like an Ar.

I don't know about you, but man that look like and AR to me.

Who knows.

Chiro Station had some BR's so no doubt they'll be in there...
But they still probally have thousands of AR's like they do on reach.
Ah screw my Machinima I'll wait until H3 comes out!

Well, it's something to have wishful thinking on, but things get cut-out during development.

I think, they should replace the [crap] smg with the assault rifle, because, thats basically what it was. That in my opinion would be the best move, balance and fun wise.

There's a chance...

The two guns are so diffrent. I don't think it would be bad to have another option. The old rifle is more like a non duelwieldable smg. If it is made just a bit more powerful than the smg it would be a great gun for someone who has a power weapon.

If you look at a blown up picture of the trailer gun and a picture of Halo1's AR you will find them exactly identical, save that the one in the trailer has a barrel almost twice the length of the one in Halo1. I think it points to a BR and AR mix.

halo2 has both its called battle riffle and SMG (AKA: assult riffle)

The Beatles kickass.
Also, I probably hate you.

I think they'll put both. I mean, they're totally different guns... even if they're modeled after each other, during gameplay, they are completely different.

Hopefully the AR in halo 3 wont have that -blam!- HUD screen but actually be a digital view finder of sorts with a camera attache to the front of the weapon instead of a weak flashlight.

Also, the flash light sucks. Chief needs somethin' cool, like image inhanced night vision or something. Arbiter has temporary cloack. Why not the chief have temporary overshiled?
