I really would like it to come back. It seems to have a straighter line of fire than the SMG. And I also like the melee attacks! ; )

yeah i wouldn't mind so much if they had like 3 modes of fire on it such as semi-auto, 3-shot-burst, and full-auto. and you could switch between each by pressing black button or something...idk

Maybe they should just update the graphics of Halo: CE and give that to us!

I say...NO! I mean it would be allright in Campaign but what about Live!?! If you have played Live you know what I mean by using the Noob Combo,right? It wouldn't go that well with the Assault Rifle over Live,thats all I'm saying.

Dunno..I personally like the AR better than the SMG, but bringing the AR back seems pointless honestly. Its just an SMG you cant duel wield. The only reason to bring it back to make sense would be either 1) they are replacing the BR with it (AR) and bringing back the scoped pistol or 2) Replacing the SMG with it and doing away with duel wielding....Unless they are just bringing more guns into the inventory or, even crazier, duel wield AR's?!?! I personally just couldnt see them do away with the BR though, i mean, its the H1 pistol in a more realistic form...Plus it looks cool :)

Well, it not bothered to me, i just like AR and BR randomly, i am pretty sure they upgrade the BR to into AR so i am sure the metal covered the BR scope so... and upgrade BR too

It'd be really cool to be carrying a BR for medium range fighting and then switch to AR for close up work.

Doesn't really matter to me. The pistol and aussault rifle from Halo: Combat Evolved were great, and the SMG and Battle Rifle from Halo 2 were great.

I'd rather have the pistol back again so I could slap some grunt face ^^
Anyway, yeah, the AR was cool too!

Yeah, I agree..I'm guessing its back according to the trailer..Who knows..They should make it more accurate and stronger..Give it an amazing look..Maybe a scope for the 3-burst fire-mode option and should only work with the 3-burst mode on..Choosing a fire-mode could help out..Fully automatic would help out with those tight situations and 3-burst for picking off the little bastards..I'd like to see it back..Black button..Lol.
