  • No but if they did that they would probably have to up the power becuz half the ammos gone... I mean u would reload like 3 times be4 he dies. Ok lets be honest. If u had great aim u coueld kill them but were only human. we miss.

  • I can't wait to have the assault rifle back, it was the greatest weapon in halo 1 and was a key missing section of Halo 2. They should add it in as a weapon with the new maps.

  • There was way to many big words in there anyways, stop critisizing a weapon that you havent even used, what are you? covenant, we will all find out if the upgrades did any good or if it will just be a replay of what happened to the shotty, but i am a little dissapionted with the 32 rounds, and also 10 clips is too much but 4 isnt enough bungie needs to find a moderate amount like 6 or 7 or even 5 but with the high rate of fire these guns we need more than 4 clips, i often found myself running out of ammo while providing coverfire in BTB before my team could do their job, we need more clips but not too many is that too much to ask for?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] mddwebboy [b] YES! [/b]Actual info on Halo 3 !(even if it contains no spoilers)! The new assault rifle sounds killer, but I have a concern... By the sound of things, Bungie is doing what they did in halo 2: Add new weapons, change old ones slightly, and basically [b] double the number of guns [/b]you can use. While this may sound awesome, it means that there are many guns that do almost the same purpose (ie. SMG - assault rifle, Covie sniper - sniper rifle). Unfortunately this makes it harder to find ammo, adds to the learning curve (slightly), and makes gameplay less smooth (I found). Also, did anyone notice that there have been no shots including the [b] AR's display [/b]? Most likely the art for it is virtually done (they showed it at the E3), which would mean that the display might have some[b] greater purpose... [/b]or just be a fancy surprise. [/quote] Agreed; I don't see why they couldn't have just made the MA5C's improvements to the SMG and save adding a redundant weapon to the game. Given Bungie's past performance in designing automatic lead-based weapons, I have a hard time believing the MA5C will be anymore than a depth-less bullet hose with sub-par accuracy. This is a lot of fanfare over what basically amounts to making H3's machinegun not as sucky as that of H1 and 2. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] milla da killa Shown improvenments: -fewer rounds in magazine [/quote] How is that an improvement? [Edited on 1/28/2007]

  • dude, in multiplayer even people who dual-wielded the smg were owned by the battle riffle. It is an ok gun as a secondary or a last resort, but I would take the BR any day, except when the AR is available. woot! I can't wait for halo 3

  • The Assault Rifle in Halo 1 was okay. It was kinda weak, but it sure was a helovalotta fun to mow down Grunts with this thing, with no worry for ammo (10 mags enough for yeh?). Then Halo 2 came, and replaced it with my favourite gun, the SMG.Many people will say, "buyt teh br waz miore of a reppiulacemeint 4 teh ar!!1!!1!! lololoollolololollololololool." But, did the AR have burst fire? No, it had auto. Did it have a scope? No, it didn't. Did it make muffins? No, but neither does the SMG, or any other thing in Halo, except for the Grunts maybe. They look like little chefs don't you think? Ahem. Back to the AR. So they are going to bring it back, except more Battle Rifle-ish. I reckon it's gonna be cool, but I liked the 60-Shot Mag. It was a nice, round number, instead of 32. Maybe it was just too powerful for 60 rounds... Oh well. Bungie knows best. Oh, wait one thing Bungie... For Halo 3 make the SMG more powerful and give it a couple more mags to make it 300 max ammo instead of 180. 180 was too small, but 600 in Halo 1 for the AR was too big! Have it in the middle! I'm nearly finished now, just one more thing. As soon as any thirteen-thirty-sevens read this, they will stare in horror, then laugh, at my love for SMGs. I say to them, I say, "The SMG is fun! The Battle Rifle is boring!" OK, finished now.
