Carbine

So I noticed that the carbine in Halo 5 fired blue shots instead of green I prefer the green shots to the blue I hope they change it back to green in Halo Infinite

I think that in the Halo Infinite Gameplay trailer they show what looks like the replacement for the Carbine and I think it had green shots.

that’s the pulse carbine which I think is different from a regular carbine. or atleast I hope it is, the regular carbine has been one of my favorites in terms of gameplay and design. I’d hate for it to be replaced

Looks like the pulse carbine is more of a variant of the regular carbine, I don’t believe the regular carbine would be replaced. Afterall, it did label different type of firemodes for the weapons on the bottom middle of the screen.
At least I hope the carbine doesn’t get replaced, the pulse carbine looks more similar to the BR now in my opinion.

I agree that the shots should be green but I think 343 has bigger fish to fry.

What do you mean they have bigger fish to fry are you referring to the graphics I agree with some people that needs to be improved but I just want the game have a good storyline and game play

I mean that out of everything that they’re working on, the color of the carbine shots are the least of their concerns.

Such as NOT releasing the multiplayer and the campaign individually!

Yeah, but I suppose that’s a debate for another forum. I wouldn’t mind individual releases though.

Personally, I don’t mind the Pulse Rifle, but it looks suspiciously like the Storm Rifle. Which I hate since it replaced the iconic Plasma Rifle with a new weapon that does not appear nearly as unique.

Well, I mean we didn’t think they were gonna replace the Magnum or OG Shotgun either until they confirmed it a fews days after the demo… so my faith in them in this department is extremely shaken.

They probably did replace the carbine, which actually makes sense since the carbine has always been a joke weapon in the games due to the fact it’s always been a worse version of the BR or DMR, the only reason Bungie added the carbine was so playing as the arbiter in H2 wasn’t horrible due to having no native precision weapons for the covenant. I support removing the carbine if it isn’t unique or viable to use, but the pulse carbine is a joke as it’s just a battle rifle rip-off.

IMO the carbine should have the fastest TTK of all precision weapons but with the tradeoff of not being very good outside of medium range and having the least amount of aim assist and bullet magnetism, that way the weapon is pure skill and will reward those who can use it properly ( headshot ttk ).

To be honest I am fine with the Carbine not appearing at all. It had an interesting design but in practical gameplay terms is has always been a Covenant BR. That being said if it were to return as DLC then it should retain its traditional green shots.

You have a point there, but to be fair the OG magnum or shotgun was never really consistent unless we’re talking about the design. Although I’m not a fan of the generic designs or how the new shotgun works mechanically in campaign the Five sev- Sidekick fills its role as a sidearm weapon. But aye, I understand why you would think the pulse carbine may be a replacement for the carbine.

I think you’ll be able to customize your weapons as your progress through the campaign. I believe that the Pilot will be an integral part in this procedure as well. It would be nice to allow you to customize your “loadout” by stopping in and visiting him every once in a while to better serve you through the missions. I hope the carbine is still present however as I believe it was one of the best looking designs in the Halo franchise. Still kind of sad that the OG plasma rifle seems to have been redesigned but then again who knows…we only have toys and a little less than 8 min of gameplay to go off of.
