People with poor depth perception tend to go the extra mile.

Uniquely Hard Sniper Map

When i paused the announcement trailer between 1:00 - 1:01, right when Chief pulls the gun off of his shoulder, i noticed you could see the ammon counter on the gun, like the old AR, but i can't quite make it out. I think you can only see it in the "large" versions of the trailer, but if anyone's computer monitor has a better resolution than mine, then maybe they could see it. And if we can see it, then it could give us clues as to what the gun does (high ammo = machine gun, low ammo = something like the battle rifle). If this has already been mentioned, please tell me where i can find the answer.

On the cover of OXM Issue #60 the cover picture is of master chief with the gun, clearly you can see the counter, it says 32. I believe the apparent AR is a AR/BR, you know like the Perfect Dark Zero guns have second functions.


I liked both guns how they where :(

that which is not dead can eternal lie, but with strange aeons even death may die.

well 32 shots would be realistic, like the clip is about the size of his hand, and it hold 60? WTF.

The OXM cover is a Print Art, it's not from the trailer. Look i zoomed on the trailer version to show you : LINK

I don't think Bungie paid attention to the the number of bullets in the trailer, it's not significant to the game plot.

I know it's not significant to the plot, but lots of people were freaking out wondering if it was like the old one or not. So i guess with the low ammo it'd be more like the BR? Just bursts? I guess we don't know. I hope it can fire bursts and then switch to auto if you wanted. That'd be cool.
