I made a thread about this on waypoint. The weapons technology isn't very far from what we have now.
Can't link the thread because waypoint sucks donkey doodles and I don't know how to find threads I've made.

The AR, BR, and DMR all pretty much have modern equivalents. The sniper rifle is just the South African NTW-20. Seriously, why didn't the weapons technology advance pretty much at all?

You'd think that by looking at the Forerunner's weapons, even the Covenant's, that humanity would have some much better tech.

The thing is that we're pretty much at the weapon and land vehicle tech that the UNSC has. You would think that in a few centuries, that 21st century tech wouldn't still be standard issue. Even the land vehicles have downgraded. The warthog is open. WTF kind of logical thinking is that?

In the end it's all about fun, balanced gameplay, not logical explanations.
