Ok when i saw the halo3 video i saw the assault rifle back in the game i was confused. That means there is not going to be a battle rifle any more right(cry). Ok i just have to ask why did u guys bring the assault riffle back ? The Battle rifle is beter than the semi auto rifle i mean it can kill a person instanly using . 45 caliber bullets. And Is the battle rifle going to be in halo 3?

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

dude, just because they showed the AR, and not the BR, dosent mean the BR is not in the game,

something to consider, in the OXM issue #60, the art on the cover, showed the ammo for the Ar, and its was 32.

The last with pagan blood.
IMMORTAL.

It could mean that the AR will have more powerful ammunition.

The Battle Rifle isn't a .45, it uses 9.5x40mm KAT rounds.

I like the assault rifle, but you've got the calibers wrong.

The assault rifle uses 7.25mm armor peircing rounds.

The battle rifle uses 9.5mm bullets. It's not a .45.

It would be pretty sweet if you get your shiny new H3 guns but can find some older ARs, BRs, and SMGs lying about. They'd be damaged & taped up, of course.

Frankie already stated that there is one new weapon. We have no idea what it is though.

Also, why would the battle rifles and assault rifles be damaged? They're not that old.

You've got the AR calibur wrong, too. The AR shoots 7.62x51mm FMJ-AP rounds.

That's just a concept for the trailor, albeit they've had the game (in whatever form) before the trailor, we can't say anything for sure.

Don't start a debate about what is in the game and what's not. We won't know until we play it. Bungie could change everything and we would never know.

M6D Pistol + Assault Rifle > ALL!!

For every action, there is an equal and opposite airstrike.

No, 'Combat Rifle' is a daft name.

Assault Rifle is a real-world class of weapon.

Battle Rifle is designed for battles in small - medium areas

Combat is another word for Battle, but Assault is completly different.


Also, what role would it fill anyway? AR has the high ROF, BR has the long range, and both can go for a while without being re-fueled.

I seriously hope they don't remove the BR and not replace it with an alternative multi-purpose, multi-ranged, precision based weapon.
