All i know is that whatever we have better like like the AR, sound like the AR, do at least a fraction of the AR's damage, and better be cool as hell.

CR=-blam!- Rifle.
Combat rifle. Hmm. What other type of rifle can you get. A Non-Combat Rifle.

Help a brother out. Click on the referral link, sign up for a fun game, log in once for the next couple of days, then you never have to think about it again!

And yes. I understand how pathetic that is, but nobody reads these things anyway... right?

Of course! Oh wait, you didn't hear?!? Halo 3 is going to be pacifist friendly!

Hail to the Victors! Reppin' that MAIZE n BLUE!!!

Chill bro. Gotta get my bowl.

I think Bungie's a little more creative than to just combine the two previous rifles.

Thank you!


Back on topic: It would be a funny play on words (letters?), but I don't think bungie is going to trade a cool name that makes everyone tremble in fear for alphabetical ordering.

What are you talking about? The AR wasn't replaced by the BR, the Pistol was replaced by the BR. They have totally different functions..

Sounds good to me. GThe only problem is that once you get into AR, BR, CR, the whole thing becomes a bit of a pun. And puns just arent Halo's style. I think it wil just be called the Assault rifle, and be an upgraded/modified version of the Halo CE AR.

I am finally starting to love the Assault Rifle (the one from the trailer) in MP. It's good stuff, although weapon balancing and tradeoffs may change its subtle variances between now and launch. And it could even be removed. Who knows? That's the normal course of development, finding what works and what doesn't. Right now, it works great.Well in the update, Frankie said it's going to be called the AR.
