assault rifle design

This more like personnel request.
But I think this a good design for the next AR.
It adds a little more Reach to it.

The new one looks a bit cheap because its the same old one.
But It had to similar the the H3 variant because of the story.
But it still doesn’t explain the new BR

I kind of like it, but if it’s not the main new AR look, then maybe a skin of sorts that changes the model. Personally I like Reach’s AR’s over the AR’s of Halo CE, 3, and 4, Reach gives the weapon a very modern look, and very modular, where the current design looks very plain and non customizable for the soldiers, It’s like the difference between the M16 A2, and the M16 A4, one has very little options when it came to customization, and limited to what armors could do, and the other has RIS up the wazoo, that not only gives you more customization, but does not limit parts to that weapon.

As far as the new BR, in Halo 3, they was prototypes being sent with FUD for field/combat testing, after all of the older BRs was issued out, and lost, the new BRs was put on the racks to keep supply on hand for boarding. A few months or so after the events of Halo 3, the new BR is moved out of the prototype phase, and into mass production.

Granted it does take time for new stuff to be issued to every single soldier, modern day military handles that issue. Spc Ops/Deployed soldiers get first dibs on new gear, then active duty combat units, motor units, then support, then reserves gets it. The UNSC Infinity was not only the flagship of the UNSC, but also a Spc Ops, element, so they get first dibs on new gear and weapons.

I don’t know what it is but I love the current AR. Halo 4 did something to it and whatever it was I don’t want it changed no matter what.

This is fine but I wouldn’t trade it Halo 4’s perfection. weird stealth’s idea sounds fine to me.

I would like to see the Halo 1 Anniversary design in Halo 5, it just looks awesome!

I like this version a lot, actually.

Wouldn’t mind this being the look in the next Halo.

I am of the opinion that the AR should be redesigned in such a way to suggest it can have a smart link zoom function. So the protrusion above the gun nozzle kind of works for me, as a smart link camera, similar to the CE Pistol.

As for the aesthetics. There are parts of it I like and parts I don’t. Like for example the grip/ flashlight. It just looks like a tin-can to me, strapped onto the bottom. And I am not so sure I’m so keen on the separate protruding ammo counter design. As for the rest of it, yeah, it does look better.

I’m inclined to agree. Adjustable stock (or what appears to be anyway), rail mount and possibly barrel attachments/adjustments given the design make this model far more customizable than the other ones.

Would make it seem like an actual military rifle, which is great if you ask me.

I love this design, TBH. I hope this design returns in Halo 5.

Yeah, I think weapons that LOOK like they can be modified is the smart way to go.
