Since when has a weapon in Halo 1 returned in Halo 2 exactly the same. It has always changed. Look at the shotgun, sniper rifle, plasma pistol, rocket launcher, plasma rifle, etc. Despite all it's changes from Halo 1 it's name hasn't changed. The shotgun is still called the shotgun, the plasma pistol is still called the plasma pistol, etc. I think the AR will be back slightly modified but it's not going to be called something else. It will always be known as the ASSAULT RIFLE.
you've got a point there, i dont even think bungie have thought of a combat rifle plus combat rifle is catagorized as a battle rifle; combat and battle mean the same thing. Even if they change the name of the AR it as Fatso says will still be known as the assault rifle. I think that they will have both the BR and AR in Halo3; nice and simple. This person I quoted, he's got commen sense.
